Abstract

A system generating electrical power from wind includes a cowling to capture wind and directs it into a tubular housing. At least one fixed helical vane can be integrated into the inner surfaces of the tubular housing in a spiral, adapted to further direct the captured wind into a spiraled air flow and focus the wind directly onto electrical generator fan blades located near an exhaust of the system. A generator cone can be mounted at the front of the generator or fan blades facing air passing through the tubular housing. As air passes over the generator cone it can experience compression between the generator cone and housing resulting in increased pressure and velocity of the air, thereby increasing rotational speed of the generator blades and generator as the compressed air passes through the blades and exits the system's exhaust. The system can be used for fixed or mobile applications.
