<p>The invention belongs to the field of wind power systems. The proposed funnel-like constructions can collect wind energy from a large area and concentrate it to a smaller area and increase the velocity of the wind before it drives the propeller, the rotor or the turbine. The patent claims are in respect of the use of inflatable or fillable or combined inflatable/fillable funnel-like constructions for concentration of wind power and increasing wind velocity in wind power systems. The wind (1) is concentrated by the funnel-like construction (2) and passes the propeller, the rotor or the turbine (3) at greater velocity. The technical problem of reducing the costs of wind power systems is resolved by the use of air, water, sand etc. as a building material in simple fashion and by the scaling-down of the dimensions of the propeller, the rotor or the turbine as a result of concentrating the wind. The technical problem of eliminating negative environmental effects of wind power systems is resolved by the funnel-like construction encapsulating the propeller, the rotor or the turbine. The principal application of the invention is in wind power systems. </p> |
