Update - Plus Emergency Lighting Trick! Posted by: imikewillrockyou Video duration: 254 seconds Large Turbine is a bust. Going to focus on scaling up the smaller turbine which is already a good design. Also, I have a neat little emergency lighting trick I'd like to pass along. How to make an oil lamp in about a minute with just a small dish, some paper and vegetable oil.

By: electrodacus. on 05 Jul 11, 23:11:52 @imikewillrockyou I have a video on my channel about a vertical wind turbine calculator you can also download the calculator the link is in the description of the video. Is done in excel actually in open office but it will work in excel there is also that version. If your PMA is designed for? 1000-2000 rpm you will need a thin and tall turbine for direct drive or you can use gears to increase the RPM. @electrodacus I was ... By: imikewillrockyou. on 05 Jul 11, 22:30:58 @electrodacus I was debating with myself regarding the scaling. However, I'm not using the PMA to is fullest potential, they can easily take 1000-2000 rpm. And since the PMA is the expensive part of these projects I think it would be economical to scale up to take advantage of that potential. The down side is it will wear them out faster, but since there is not a heavy load on the bearings I think that isn't a big problem either.? Scaling on vertical ... By: electrodacus. on 28 Jun 11, 00:03:43 Scaling on vertical wind turbine dose not work that great is more economical to get more smaller wind turbine you will need? less materials for the same amount of energy since the power in the wind is proportional with the turbine front area and this is a 2 dimensional unit compared to most vertical wind turbine that are a 3 dimensional object. One liter that is about 1/4 gallon of vegetable oil has about 10KWh of stored energy so about the same as crude oil or gas. hey buddy in ...

I'm going to build the larger turbine at the location where it will be used. Not enough room in the shop. However, the process will be very similar to the construction of the small turbine.

By: solarhope. on 31 Jan 11, 10:14:34 Hi Mike, I've watched all your videos? and must congratulate you on some neat engineering and "keep it simple approach". Perhaps you already have the solution to up scaling the existing turbine - Put lots of the existing design together in a block module, or just dot them about to fit in with the location as you have tucked one away behind a wall. If it ain't broke don't fix it! - Regards Martin. good luck with the ...

By: imikewillrockyou. on 21 Jan 11, 20:20:57 @jedufa Yes excellent idea, I was looking to do exactly that using a foam core to scale up the? turbine blades. I was thinking construction foam insulation sheets which are dirt cheap. Maybe a layer of fiberglass. But no I haven't cut foam before, it appears they use hot wire? I'm looking into it, not sure I'm going with foam but maybe. You can't beat it in weight. Let me know how your turbine turns out. All the best, Mike @DontFriendInviteMe ...

I will be using a blue foam wing core with 30cm chord, 1m height, 20%camber, 7%thickness (see on nasa foilsim III) that offers a positive lift/drag ratio for the whole range of angles of attack you are looking for (based on your last turbine). You've surely cut foam cores? before, if not there are plenty of vids for that (how i learned). I will probably cut the number of blades by 2 to keep the costs low. Keep us updated.

By: electrodacus. on 27 Jun 11, 23:52:42 @imikewillrockyou If there is not much wind in your area then maybe solar is a better option,? PV for electricity and evacuated tubes for hot water since most energy go to heating things and and evacuated tubes are more efficient than PV and will cost lees considering the same amount of energy. If the wind speed is half you get 8x less power so wind speed is quite important not just the consistency of the wind. @electrodacus I? ...

That's an okay way to measure the performance of alternators because you can use some math to figure out how that alt will perform with a given turbine and load. But it really doesn't? tell us much about a turbine. Next time you have it in the wind, maybe you could measure voltage and current with a few different loads.

By: imikewillrockyou. on 06 Sep 10, 23:14:39 @Micronix65 My? tests show my little turbine is putting out approx 5 amps x 20 volts in a 20 mph wind. Maybe 90-100 Watts in 20 mph average wind. And this turbine needs about 10 mph to reach 12 volts charging, at least with the set-up I'm using.

By: imikewillrockyou. on 02 Mar 11, 01:05:51 @efortune357 This is small turbine that needs good wind to benefit from it, 20 mpr +. To get that most of the time you need? a mast. So if you are in a low wind area I would go with solar first and then add wind to supplement on stormy and cloudy days. However, if you live in area with a lot of wind, then you won't beat wind energy. @imikewillrockyou ... By: efortune357. on 25 Feb 11, 10:09:26 @imikewillrockyou Thanks for the info.

I still need to build a test turbine, just thinking out loud... Are people using multiple turbines to engergize homes? It makes sense on the surface but I have a lot to learn. @efortune357? ... By: imikewillrockyou. on 24 Feb 11, 20:47:07 @efortune357? Increasing the height will have diminishing returns because you can only gain so much speed with that diameter and load. Or in other words the added weight will slow it down. Adding a little more height might give you a slight improvement but at some point it will actually slow you down and the structure will be less stable overall. Hope that helps. btw, if you live in a low wind area go with solar. awesome vids. ... By: efortune357. on 20 Feb 11, 07:54:16 awesome vids. Thank you. Why? did you go with the height of the turbine?

By: imikewillrockyou. on 06 Aug 11, 00:30:48 @MyXboxSavesHD Winds 20 mph and above will top off a couple golf cart batteries very quickly with this turbine. So to answer your question I'm charging deep? cycle batteries with my turbine and then use an inverter to get AC power. I do run an evap cooler part time with the energy. Unfortunately for me wind is low to nil here in the Summer, my best wind is during the Winter months. @imikewillrockyou ... By: MyXboxSavesHD. on 06 Jul 11, 07:05:29 @imikewillrockyou It's pretty windy where I live, usually we have about 10-20mph daily, and I want to power my evap cooler. I was looking into buying a motor, but I do not know which one to buy. I just want to run? the ac which uses 110 watts on low, so I don't want to buy a motor unless I know which one could power my ac. I was hoping to buy something the would produce enough watts for the ac. We get high winds regularly, just yesterday it was blowing out of the SE at about 48MPH. @MyXboxSavesHD ... By: imikewillrockyou. on 05 Jul 11, 22:22:18 @MyXboxSavesHD First what kind of wind to you have? Unless you have consistent very high winds (30 mph plus) you'll need a lot of these little turbines to get enough power to run an air conditioner, unless it's just an? evap cooler. Even then you'll need 15-20 mph winds consistently and likely two or more of these. You would also need a very high end inverter. My PMA is made by a company called "Wind Blue Power" and this is their "Low Wind" windings PMA. You can google them. No wind? Go solar. I got a Question ... By: MyXboxSavesHD. on 01 Jul 11, 01:53:51 I got a Question concerning your PMA Alternator. I would like to use a turbine to power my air conditioner. My question to you is what would be a good Alternator to look for, volts? wise. If I'm able, I would be connecting the turbine and ac to a battery, hoping it would stay charged. Do you have any suggestions and advice you could give me?
