Abstract
A wind compressor system having one or more wind turbines and a plurality of wind compressors located proximate the one or more wind turbines. The wind compressors optimize the energy created by the wind turbines by redirecting and converging the wind from the wind compressor to the wind turbines. Each of the wind compressors comprises an obstruction having a size and shape adapted to converge the wind currents by means of a Venturi effect toward the one or more turbines thereby increasing the velocity and force of the wind hitting the wind turbine. A plurality of transporters coupled to the wind compressors. The transporters configured to move at least one wind compressors to a location that maximizes the force of the wind encountered by the turbine.
Claims19
A wind directing system, comprising:
- a wind compressor proximate a wind turbine;
- said wind compressor comprising an obstruction, the obstruction configured to redirect a wind flow from said wind compressor towards the wind turbine so that the redirected and converged wind flow increases velocity and force;
- a controller, said controller controlling the movement of a transporter, said wind compressor coupled to said transporter;
- and
- a magnetic levitation wind turbine having at least one rotor with a plurality of blades, said redirected wind from said wind compressor turning said plurality of blades, said wind turbine employing opposing magnets for levitation of said at least one rotor,
- wherein said transporter, subject to said controller, moves said wind compressor to a location that maximizes the force of the wind encountered by the wind compressor and directed by the wind compressor to the wind turbine to turn said plurality of blades on said at least one rotor.
A method for increasing the force of wind acting on a wind turbine, comprising:
- locating a wind compressor proximate a wind turbine having at least one rotor, said wind compressor comprising an obstruction configured to redirect a wind flow from said wind compressor towards the wind turbine;
- arranging said wind compressor proximate the wind turbine in a configuration that redirects and converges said wind flow toward the wind turbine at an increased velocity and force;
- moving, upon a change of wind direction, said wind compressor using a transport device, said transport device being controlled by a controller;
- and
- levitating, using opposing magnets, said at least one rotor with a plurality of blades thereon,
- whereby, in operation, said at least one rotor turning due to said redirected wind from said wind compressor has reduced friction and a at least one of said plurality of blades turns due to the redirected wind off the wind compressor.
A wind compressor comprising:
- an obstructer, said obstructer obstructing wind flow around said wind compressor, said obstructer redirecting said wind flow towards a wind turbine adjacent thereto,
- said obstructer, being coupled to a transport device, configured to move in relation to changes of said wind flow,
- a controller configured to control the movement of said obstructor on said transport device, moving said transport device and said obstructor to another position, and
- a magnetic levitation wind turbine having at least one rotor with a plurality of blades, said redirected wind flow turning said plurality of blades, said wind turbine employing opposing magnets for levitation of said at least one rotor.
