Here is a new turbine model. Wat is so special about it is that it is smaller and more efficient. With its patent pending, Clarkson University professor Ken Visser and a team of graduate students have spent the past six years experimenting on it.
If the full sized prototype is successful, all of their research could become a reality, Visser believes. Warner Energy, of Syracuse is now backing the research team’s design.
Visser said, What we found, first in the computer then in the wind tunnel, that it seemed to indicate more blades and the particular orientation of the blades could give us a better performance than just three blades.
