Turbine apparatus and method for energy reclamation and generation of electrical power from forced-air systems |
摘要 |
A forced-air electric generator apparatus includes a housing positioned to receive forced-air flow from a forced-air device. A bladed rotor carried by the housing is in fluid communication with the forced air flow. A clutch engages the bladed rotor to drive a generator to produce a generated voltage when the bladed rotor is rotating above a threshold rotational velocity. |

1. A forced-air electric generator apparatus, comprising:
a housing positioned to receive forced-air flow from a forced-air device, wherein the forced air is provided by an electrically powered fan of the forced-air device; a bladed rotor carried by the housing, wherein the bladed rotor is in fluid communication with the forced-air flow; a generator for converting mechanical energy to electrical energy; and a clutch, wherein the clutch engages the bladed rotor to drive the generator to produce a generated voltage when the bladed rotor is rotating above a threshold rotational velocity. |
