Vertical Axis Hydro Kinetic Wind Turbine

Abstract

The present invention relates, in general, to wind turbines for power generation and, more particularly, this invention relates to a vertical axis hydro kinetic wind generator with an independent free turning magnetically levitated high powered magnetic translator stack. The present invention is an anywhere anytime vertical axis hydro kinetic wind generating solution with distinct advantages over conventional horizontal and vertical wind turbines with low cost global deployment better operational performance and greater environmental advantages. The turbine converts high pressure hydraulic kinetic energy stored in the high pressure reservoir into mechanical energy that drives a vertical axis linear generator with an independent free turning high powered magnetic translator stack. The high pressure reservoir, hydraulic pump motor, microprocessor controller and algorithm software and the fully levitated vertical axis linear generator along with light weight sail blades are instrumental for the improved operation of the present invention.
