Dutch L'Arendsian Windmill - Radial RegeneRotor - Concept.
1 Motor = 1 differential = 2 Counter spinning Rotors = powering 8 Radially placed Wind Turbines, on two sides = 16 points of generation from a single ! motor = Mind = Blown.
if wind is already to be generated for [Drone] flight, [or naturally] why not recapture some of that otherwise wasted energy, generating more, on board, during flight. the two [horizontally placed] rotors have to make wind for generating lift, a differential gearbox makes them both counter spin, and because they counter spin they both can power a single regenerative centrally placed turbine blade. [8 turbine blades].
the turbine blade in turn rotates two individual sets of round magnets, around their own [snake] coils, allowing both the turbine ends to generate electricity from both ends of the turbines Rotor, creating 16 points of generation in total.
- i have added a specifically placed wind shielding around the radial two way generators, so that the wind generated by the propellers can only come in / up/ down and turn the turbines in the preferred, which in this case is all towards the same direction.
** one can experiment with the correct timings of the blades, perhaps the top blade on bottom blade can be timed 45 degrees apart, or be timed in manner where they both strike the turbine rotor from the two orientations top and bottom at the same time. my bet would be uneven balance between top and bottom will offer us the best results.
*** without a motor put in place, driving the thruster, this apparatus or contraption can be utilized as a high tech multi wind generator as well, just add a old-school windy tail on its back to capture the current wind direction, forcing the front towards the wind, in turn rotating both sets of counter spinning blades, in turn powering all the double sided generators.
Thank you so much for watching and reading, every like helps me, thank you all for your support!
