Q: What is Vertical
Axis Wind Turbine compared with traditional horizontal axis wind
turbine? A: If the pivot of the turbine is vertical to the
ground, then it is a vertical axis wind turbine, vice versa.
Most of the wind turbines, the ones with three blades that we
see frequently today are horizontal axis wind turbines.
Q: Why vertical
axis wind turbines make much less noise than horizontal axis
wind turbines? A: The cause of
noise is mainly because of blades cutting through air flow.
However, air flow through vertical axis wind turbine is
different and the rotation speed is much lower. As a result, it
produces much less noise, almost no noise at all.
Q: Why are our products most advanced? A: The design and development of the products followed a strict
process. Firstly, we verified our ideas by relevant theories,
and then conducted computer facilitated simulation (CFD). When
choosing materials, we calculated, compared and adjusted
intensity of various types of materials. Before finalizing the
design, each new product has to go through countless experiments
in wind tunnel to further prove its functions. We already have 9
international invention patents resulted from the research. So Aeolus is the leader in the vertical axis wind turbine section
of the industry with cutting edge products and it is the only
one who has successfully transferred the technology to
manufacturing.
Q: Who are the
potential users of vertical axis wind turbine? A: As it has
advantages such as lower noise, it can be used in both rural and
urban areas given the local wind and site conditions fit. Public
lighting, monitor controlling system, oil fields and other city
facilities and commercial purposes could use our products as
well. Because wind directions don’t affect the function of the
equipment, so it works even better on yachts, islands, offshore
oil fields where wind is more turbulent.
Q: How to choose
the capacity of the wind turbine group? A: Generally
speaking, capacity = rating load power X (1.3 -1.5), depends on
the local wind resources.
Q: How to choose
the capacity of the accumulator? A: This formula could help to calculate: =daily usage x number of days without wind power / number of
accumulators / voltage of the accumulator
Q: What are the Dos
and Don’ts in installation? A: 1. Don’t incur
any scratches on the surface of the equipment to prevent rust. 2. Keep blades
parallel to the vertical axis when installing. 3. Screws should be
reinforced with fixing glues after being screwed tightly 4. The main axis
should be vertical to the ground. Please refer to the
Installation Manuel for detailed instructions.
