A wind turbine includes: a collector base; a tunnel body; and a wind turbine. The collector base has an entire circumference at which a wind inflow part is formed. The tunnel body includes a lower front member that is vertically installed on the collector base, that has a substantially rectangular cross-sectional shape, and whose cross-sectional area is reduced linearly or curvilinearly from a wind inlet formed on the collector base side, and an upper member that linearly or curvilinearly expands from a position of the reduced cross-sectional area to the wind outlet at an upper end. The wind turbine is installed at a reduced part of the tunnel body such that an interval between long side parts of the tunnel body is minimum, and a ratio of short side parts and the long side parts of the tunnel body is 1 to 10 times.

The present invention provides a system for processing VOC passing through a pipe structure. The pipe structure includes one or more stackable sections for heating decomposition of VOC molecules in the exhaust that passes through the sections and a self-powered cap assembly coupled to the outlet end of the pipe structure. The cap assembly includes a wind turbine mechanically coupled to a generator that supplies electricity to an electronic assembly and to the electrothermal converter in each of the heat decomposition sections. The heat decomposition section includes a paraboloidal heating dish which is coaxially fixed in a cylindric structure with its opening end facing the cap assembly. The electrothermal converter is placed in the focus of the paraboloidal dish. The exhaust gas that passes through the heating decomposition section rotates the turbine that further drives the generator through a shaft. The electricity from the generator activates the electrothermal converter that converts electrical energy into heat energy. The paraboloidal dish reflects the heat from the converter forward into the internal space of cylindric structure. The VOC molecules are decomposed under the high temperature within the cylinder. The system also includes an electronic detecting device and a wireless interface that transmits the VOC data collected by the detecting device to a computer.

A gravity power and desalination technology system is provided, including a heat storage apparatus, an inner tube portion, a hot-air and vapor generator, and venting holes, a corrugated tube portion, an outer tube portion, an updraft wind power generator, and an artificial hydro power generator. The heat storage apparatus is provided in a lower portion and configured. The inner tube portion has an inner vent portion inside and disposed vertically over the heat storage apparatus. The hot-air and vapor generator is disposed between the heat storage apparatus and the inner tube portion. The venting holes are bored through the inner tube portion obliquely outwards. The corrugated tube portion is provided on a top portion of the outer tube portion. The updraft wind power generator and the artificial hydro power generator are installed in the lower portions of the inner vent portion and the outer vent portion, respectively.

An invention is presented which greatly improves the potential for individual home wind energy conversion. The system utilizes conventional sail technology to greatly increase the wind energy capture at modest cost. The use of a large area collector for wind energy, such as a sail, allows the conversion of wind kinetic energy into pressure to be further converted into mechanical or electrical energy in a much smaller turbine than in the conventional wind mill configuration. This technology encourages the distributed generation of green and renewable wind energy, complementing solar generation and the grid tie box, toward making the residential home energy neutral.

The present invention generally relates to the field of energy generation systems-renewable energywind energy and flowing water energy, more particularly to the fluid turbines. The present invention uses the blockage effect either due to a plate or due to a ground suitably place so that in a distance up to one diameter away from the duct, so that the air is deflected up to 90 degrees and beyond and the flow rate through the duct and turbine is increased, leading to higher efficiency and greater power produced.

The present invention provides a method to generate self contained electrical power within a building by capturing wind energy to generate kinetic energy, yielding DC current and transferring DC current from generators through anode and cathode to an electrolyzer; using a catalyst and heat for the electrolysis of water to improve the production of hydrogen and Oxygen. Yielding Oxygen and Hydrogen from electrolyzer and compressing them for storing separately in gaseous or liquid form for further igniting Hydrogen and Oxygen in a combustion chamber to generate heat to generate high pressure steam to run steam turbines to further generate electricity for the consumption requirements of the building or a user.

This invention combines in a linear order components, the majority of which exist and are commercially available, which transform wind power into electrical power to provide electricity to a building making it possible for the building to become its own clean energy power plant, independent from the grid.

The invention relates to a method of harvesting overhead wind energy with greater efficiency and being better in terms of manufacturing technology and equipment installation. In particular, the invention relates to a method of harvesting overhead wind energy with an equipment system for indirectly catching wind, the method comprises: catching overhead wind; guiding the caught overhead wind downwards; converting the energy of the caught wind into mechanical work to rotate one or more generators on the ground.

The cost of the equipment system for indirectly catching wind is much cheaper than those of the traditional wind electricity pylon.
