Make it horizontal axis, a long spiral drum, with one wind deflector to prevent wind from blowing backwards. Mount on your roof adjusted for wind direction.
@@crafter2u The VAWT is much less efficient. Much heavier, hard to get on a tower, tricky to regulate in high winds. There are very few examples of success.
@@dansshop I would think the wind deflectors make it more efficient, and i really dont see a weight problem, why would you need to regulate it in high winds? also there are no brakes or gears or bearings or unnecessary electronics to break. any way im working on the new model and we will see how it does
VAWTs tend not to be as efficient due to backtracking because their blades move in the same direction as the wind. On every rotation a blade makes it must travel back into the wind before being pushed back around. the deflectors remove that issue. I'm more interested in whether or not cogging will enter into play when the system is loaded, how well will the support magnets hold the shaft in place.
The physics of turbine operation makes vertical axial turbines ineffective, as everyone knows. A lot of scientific research and engineering experiments have been carried out in different countries. As a result, horizontally axial wind turbines mainly generate energy. And the vertical ones are used by illiterate amateurs and crooks.
