WT6500 Honeywell Wind TurbineHow does the Blade Tip Power System Technology Work?
Honeywell Wind Turbine - A WIND TURBINE LIKE NO OTHER - ALWAYS TURNING
The WindTronics Tech Center utilizes ANSYS software for finite element analysis (FEA) of the turbine's mechanical design and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) of its blade design and power extraction. The following videos represent tests that are conducted assuming the same diameter turbine, in a class 4 wind (average of 12.5mph or 5.6 m/s), at 163 RPM's. The WT6500's blades cause a lot of movement of the air. While this causes more drag, it results in a substantial increase in lift, which allows for more power extraction.
