Home Made

I am no expert, but my thought was to gather some useful information so that anyone (even I) could make a 2-blade wind turbine even after the pole shift. This will take into account the following requirements:

• With a well built wind turbine 30-40% of the wind’s energy can be accumulated.
• A normal house needs about 15,000 to 30,000 kwt (kilowatt-hour) per year.
• For that, one needs a power source that would give 1-2 kW. This is like having one or two moped motors on full power at all times.
• The wind is essential, and the greater the wind power the greater the energy.
• With a wind of 5 m/s (meters per second) the diameter of a turbine should be about 10 meters to capture the amount of energy for a normal house. This would be about 2,198 Watts.

In CAD/CAM Autolisp (programming language) is used for making specific applications such as calculation programs, etc. The Lisp language is structured to handle non-numeric symbols in a logical way. The document I have has the name Autolisp Programmed 2 Bladed Turbine. The turbine is based on some parameters, which you probably could get in any book about wind turbines, concerning the form and shape of the wing. In this material I have, a specific wing is already chosen, and one only needs to have an Autocad program or some kind of paint program to plot out the wing profile to make a blueprint. You could make it as big or small as you wish.

One could use:

• Wood, plywood or material similar to polyurethane foam, something that you could form with ease in the making of a blueprint
• Old car parts, for the wing turbine
• A large generator or a couple of old car generators
• A power cable of some sort from the generator(s) to a battery room.

One turbine, two old car generators and some car batteries could give enough power to have more than a few lamps shining in your hydroponic garden for a long time.
