-
Englar says it can help improve fuel efficiency by 10 to 12 percent.
-
"If I can generate a 40 percent power increase, then I can use some of that (leftover power) toward the compressor," Englar said.
-
Englar said doing that requires finding the correct rotation for the blades.
-
"It turns out these can generate up to 10 times the lift coefficient and I don't need the angle of attack to do it," Englar said.
-
"Think of a plane going down the runway for take off," Englar said.
-
Englar said the blade design works just like a helicopter's rotors but in reverse.
-
Englar said the technology could easily be applied to hydropower developments and has already been tested on semi trucks to test vehicle fuel efficiency by reducing drag.
-
Englar said he could get the lift by turning on the blowing or getting the same amount of torque at a lower wind speed, creating the ability to run the wind turbine in places where they could not be run because of a lack of wind.
-
Englar said he had been perfecting the design for more than 40 years while working on U.S.
-
"When the blade is rotating, each section is going at a different speed because of the radius," Englar said.
