ROTOR WITH EXTENDABLE BLADES AND CONTROL CRITERIA THEREFOR
摘要
A wind or water flow energy converter comprising a wind or water flow actuated rotor assembly. The rotor comprises a plurality of blades, wherein the blades are variable in length to provide a variable diameter rotor. The rotor diameter is controlled to fully extend the rotor at low flow velocity and to retract the rotor as flow velocities increases such that the loads delivered by or exerted upon said rotor do not exceed set limits.
