A Novel Design for Enhanced Wind Energy Harnessing Using a Hollow-Shaft Electromagnetic Rotary Generator
Author(s): Levi Bulger*
This paper presents an innovative wind energy harnessing mechanism, grounded in the fundamental principles of electromagnetic rotary generation. The proposed design introduces a significant advancement through the modification of the generator’s shaft, which is engineered to be hollow and incorporates a precision-designed fin tunnel to optimize wind energy conversion efficiency. This approach addresses key limitations of conventional wind turbines, including elevated costs, substantial spatial requirements, and suboptimal performance under low wind speed conditions. Empirical case studies conducted in urban, offshore, and microgrid contexts demonstrate the practicality and effectiveness of this design. Results from simulations and theoretical analyses indicate enhanced energy conversion efficiency, lower manufacturing costs, and a compact structural profile adaptable to a variet.. Read More»
