Abstract

The present invention provides a vortex dynamic power generation structure that consists of the cylindrical cavity, the driving mechanism and the power generating mechanism. The vertical cylindrical cavity has plural fluid inlets at side and the fluid outlet at the center of the top surface. The driving mechanism consists of the permeable blade set and the rotating axis is installed at the center of the cylindrical cavity. The character of present invention is as the following. The external fluid flows into the cylindrical cavity tangentially to form the vortex, and the vortex continue accelerates automatically as the tornado does. The vortex thrusts the driving mechanism to rotate, and the permeable blades allow the vortex maintain its spiral route. The permeable blades feedback rotating energy to further accelerate the vortex. The center part of the vortex flows along the axis of the cylindrical cavity to the outlet and exits. The power generating mechanism is connected to and driven by the driving mechanism to generate electricity.

Dependent claims

A vortex dynamic power generation structure, which consists of:

a cylindrical cavity, which has plural fluid inlet at the vertical side and a fluid outlet at the center of the top surface of the cylindrical cavity. The external fluid flows into the cylindrical cavity tangentially through the fluid inlet, proceeds alongside the inner surface of the cylindrical cavity, then flows toward the axis along the spiral route until it finally turns toward the outlet to exit, which creates the wind field similar to a tornado within the cylindrical cavity;
a driving mechanism, which is installed inside of the cylindrical cavity. The driving mechanism consists of the rotating shaft and the blade set. The rotating shaft locates at the axis of the cylindrical cavity, and the blade set consists of the brackets and plural permeable blades. The blade set is connected to the rotating shaft, so that the inflow thrusts the blade set and drives the rotating shaft. The inflow can maintain spiral route and keep accelerating even after crashing with plural permeable blades. The blades can feedback their rotating power to further accelerate the vortex.
a power generating mechanism, which is connected to and driven by the driving mechanism to generate electricity.
