Abstract

Disclosed herein are systems and methods for generating electric power from an exhaust wind expelled by an exhaust system having an exhaust outlet. Such systems may comprise, and methods may utilize, a conical framework, a Newtonian turbine, and an electric generator. The conical framework and the Newtonian turbine may be disposed substantially downstream of the exhaust outlet. The Newtonian turbine may be positioned at a first distance from the exhaust outlet, may be substantially concentric with the conical framework, and may be disposed partially or completely within the conical framework. The conical framework may enhance the capture of wind energy by the Newtonian turbine. Thus, a portion of the unused energy from unnatural wind sources can be captured, such as those described herein, and returned to the power grid to enable higher efficiency of machinery operation.
