A miracle! A Wind turbine producing electricity without BLADES.It can be of any size from cabinet to skyscraper size.

1. Bladeless Wind Turbine

2. o Idea by ….
 A new contraptive idea by Dutch architecture firm
‘Mecanoo’ & is installed at the Delft University of
Technology, U.S.A.
 A bladeless wind turbine with no moving parts that
produces electricity using charged water droplets!
 The EWICON: Electrostatic Wind Energy Converter, has
the potential to change the use of wind technology.

3. o It’s Design Structure ….
 The device comprises a steel frame holding 40 horizontal
rows of insulated ceramic tubes, which seems like a large
tennis racket.The metal plate consits of battery,
inverter,HVDC source ,pump & charging system & it is
supported by insulators. The insulated plate acts as
capacitor, which is charged by removal of the charged
droplets.

4. o How it works ????
 Wind power without spinning blades?? Yes , it’s possible by this....
 The Ewicon creates electrical energy directly from wind energy.
 Instead of translating the mechanical energy of large blades rotated by
the wind, the bladeless turbine lets wind move positively charged water
droplets from a nozzle against the direction of an electric field by a
process called “Electrospraying”.

5.  This leaves behind the negatively charged particles and
increasing the potential energy of the particle.
 A collecting system then harvests that excess energy.

6. o Merits of EWICON ….
 Due to lack of large moving parts , the turbine is quieter.
 It has low wear & tear and reduced maintenance costs.
 It produces much less vibration & making it better suited to
Urban locality.
 Variety of shapes and sizes.
Hence, if this project attains its goal , this will Epoch a new
Power era.
