Abstract
A power generating apparatus may use fluid flow which may include intermittent fluid flow. Such a power generating apparatus may harness electric power from intermittent wind sources but may also be deployed in near constant winds. The apparatus includes airfoils that are pivotally attached to vertical supports. The supports are attached to power generating devices. As wind blows, the airfoils lift upward relative to the horizontal. The motion may be transferred by actuating a hydraulic cylinder. This motion pressurizes the cylinder and the pressurized hydraulic fluid may later be transferred into electric power via a hydraulic generator. The upward motion may also be transferred to a permanent magnet alternator.
