Abstract
A thermal energy generator of a size and configuration such that it captures and accelerates wind and thermal flow to drive a variable pitch internal propeller and an interconnected generator.
Claims5
A thermal energy generator, comprising:
- a frustoconical shell terminating in a cylindrical vertical extension at the upper end thereof, said shell including openings in the sidewall at the bottom thereof and the cylindrical extensions having openings in the sidewall such that air flows inwardly at the top and bottom of the generator;
- a plurality of vertical wind deflectors at the bottom of the generator;
- a plurality of fins within the cylindrical extension placed at a angle to the axis of the cylindrical extension direct to the air flow;
- and
- an adjustable pitch propeller at the upper end of the cylindrical extension such that thermal and wind flow pass through the propeller causing rotation thereof and driving a generator.
