Wind Turbine Having a Wing-Shaped Turbine Blade

摘要

The present invention provides a wind turbine with two overlapping wing shaped turbine blades mounted about a rotational axis. The wing shaped turbine blades are shaped so that wind from an outer surface of a first leading wing shaped turbine blade flows into an inner surface of a trailing wing shaped turbine blade.

主权项

1. A wind turbine, the wind turbine comprising:
a first wing shaped turbine blade mounted perpendicular to a rotational axis, the first wing shaped turbine blade having a substantially curved outer convex surface and a substantially curved inner concave surface, the first wing shaped turbine blade having an inner wing edge overlapping the rotational axis; and a second wing shaped turbine blade mounted perpendicular to the rotational axis, the second cupped wing having an outer convex surface and an inner concave surface, the second cupped wing having an inner wing edge overlapping the rotational axis, wherein the inner wing edge of first cupped wing and inner wing vertical edge of second cupped wing overlap each other and the rotational axis.
