Abstract

A wind energy system includes an annular wind shroud surrounding the rotatable blades of a wind turbine. The shroud is configured to enhance the wind power delivered to the rotatable blades of the wind turbine by generating an efficient pressure differential between the blade upstream and downstream wind flows. A radially outwardly extending collar-shaped brim member is formed on an outside of an exhaust opening edge of an outlet of the wind tunnel body and an axially rearwardly extending tubular-shaped rim member is formed on the exhaust opening edge of the outlet of the wind tunnel body. The brim and rim cooperatively generate adjacent annular pressure zones in the downstream flow beneficially effecting the power delivered to the blades intermediate the upstream and downstream flows.

Abstract

A wind energy systems includes a shroud for each turbine. The shroud is adapted to direct and accelerate wind towards the turbine. A strong adaptable support assembly is provided for securing turbines to a structure. An air glide yaw assembly facilitates rotational movement of the structure allowing the turbines to face oncoming wind. The turbine blades are optimized for use with a shroud.
