Description: You are bidding on one Wind Turbine made in the USA - 24 Volt DC Once your serious we've got your back!THIS IS NOT A CHINESE TOYTHIS PUTS-OUT SERIOUS POWERTHIS IS BUILD TO LAST A CENTURY + MAX-CORE PMA/PMG 2-Wire / 1-phase / Neg-Pos / 5 large high-speed Carbon Fiber blades 2400 Watts peak / 2285 RPM at peak load. For battery charging be sure to buy one of our "battery regulators". Designed to operate in an area with low/medium speed averages of 4.3 to 5.6 m/s and greater (Zone 3-4) Provides 303 kWh per month (3640kWh year) 8.8 kWh per day in a 12.4 mph (5.6 m/s) average wind speed. In a zone 7 area this turbine can make up to 200% more power or 17.6 kWh. Wind Zones are defined by m/s Wind Zone 1 0 – 4.4 m/s (Wind not recommended, go solar in this wind zone) Wind Zone 2 4.4 – 5.1 m/s Wind Zone 3 5.1 – 5.6 m/s Wind Zone 4 5.6 – 6.0 m/s Wind Zone 5 6.0 – 6.4 m/s Wind Zone 6 6.4 – 7.0 m/s Wind Zone 7 7.0 – 9.4 m/s (20-22 mph) High amperage / Low-wind specialized system Cool running 'under-flow' rotor design. Many mountain tops canyons and passes can generate these types of wind speeds on many days of the week. In order to operate a grid feeder and turn your power meter backwards you will need 11 MPH wind speed minimum. WORLDS LOWEST PRICED WIND TURBINE'S PER WATT PRODUCED WIND POWER! Because The Sun Doesn't Shine At Night. Solar works 8 hours a day and wind works 24 hours a day!Low cost power for boats, RVs and battery charging for home power systems. ABOUT OUR BLADES: REAL SCIENCE-Pitch perfect and sharp! They lift and push at the same time -"The boundary layer effect on these blades is pure perfection!" Thermodynes KT Pantera blades made in the USA lose remarkably little energy in terms of efficiency. This perfection and could best be described as 'A monolithic 'sweet-spot' from Blade Tip To Blade Root'.The very best electricity generating turbines are not pushed by the wind so much as they are pulled. Making electricity needs medium-high RPMs at the alternator, and blades that are pushed can never go faster than the true wind speed, usually much slower. These are called "drag turbines". Good turbines rely on aerodynamic lift to turn them: the forces involved are greater, and the blades can spin many times faster than the wind, just as a catamaran can sail faster than true wind speed.A blade with tip-speed ratio (TSR) of 5 will spin 50mph in a 10mph wind, creating its own apparent wind of ~51 mph. The apparent direction of that wind moves closer to the blade's rotational plane the faster it spins; likewise, the blade tip sees a faster and shallower apparent wind than the blade root.As the apparent wind contacts the leading edge, it splits. Some air goes along the convex back, some goes along the concave front. The streams adhere to the blade surface and adjacent air by boundary layer effect.The concave side air slows down, generating a net positive air pressure; the air flowing over the convex back of the blade speeds up, creating a net (and stronger) negative air pressure. Both sets of pressures act perpendicular to the surface of the blade. The forces act in all different directions and intensities, but the net force is a flexing and forward one. The flex force is canceled by the blade's stiffness; what's left is a forward vector of surprising strength:There's a fairly narrow window of apparent wind direction or attack angle - in which a lifting airfoil will operate efficiently. The flow along its sides must be smooth, and it must remain attached to the blade surface. If it detaches, the result is lost lift, terrible drag, and turbulence, with attendant noise and vibration. These conditions are known as stalling (attack angle too steep) and luffing (attack angle too shallow.)Wind turbine designers have developed numerous strategies to keep the apparent wind angle correct, which is especially hard given that different parts of the blade are moving different speeds, and to keep lift strong and constant along the full length of the foil. These strategies can be grouped in pairs: Taper and draft, twist and pitch. Near the hub of a propeller-style-turbine, the apparent wind is slower and closer in direction to the true wind, the blade root has a wide chord (breadth) and a fairly deep draft, and it faces more toward the true wind. The blade tip is traveling very fast, too much breadth or 'cup' would create crippling drag, so the blade there tends to be narrower and flatter. The tip also experiences an apparent wind nearly in line with its rotational plane, so it needs very little twist.Finally, the best HAWTs (horizontal-axis wind turbines) are able to rotate the entire blade to vary TSR, optimize lift, and keep the alternator spinning at its prime electricity-making RPM. They use taper, draft, twist and pitch all at once.For what it's worth a brief look at why the world's best engineers design HAWTs rather than VAWTs (vertical axis wind turbines). The very worst VAWTs are pure drag machines: paddles pushed by the wind. Their maximum apparent wind is the true wind MINUS their own rotational speed, so they can never go fast and the wind's force is gutted. And two-thirds of the time, a given blade is either contributing nothing or plowing headlong INTO the wind. These generally fall under the heading of Savonius Rotors. Their TSRs are always less than 1.0, and their efficiencies are gruesome.Better, though not much, is a class of semi-lifting VAWTs classified as Darrius, Modified Darrius, or Gyro Rotors. These include the famous 'eggbeaters' and more modern designs. Almost half the time, their blades are on or near a "beam reach," moving perpendicular to the true wind, which sailors know is the fastest, most-efficient point of sail. But the back blade is operating in the wind shadow of the front one, its draft must somehow be inverted, the downwind blade is dragging some, and the upwind blade is a sea anchor. Darrius blades are pulling maybe 50% of the time. They aspire to TSRs of 2.5, they do spin faster than the wind, but not much.A HAWT experiences great lift over a 100% power stroke. That's why GE, Mitsubishi, and Vestas build them that way. Pound for pound and dollar for dollar HAWT'S are winning the economic battle for cheap and reliable wind power.
