Wind Turbine Alternator - Coils Diagram

Here is a DIY Project for wind turbine alternator.

The alternator has two 12 inch diameter rotors that each have 12 neodymium disk magnets measuring 1.47 inche in diameter and .6 inches thick. Between the rotors is the stator consisting of 9 coils of awg #20 wire, 200 turns each. The coils are arranged to produce 3-phase ac. Each phase has 3 coils wired in series. There are 3 full wave bridge rectifiers, one for each phase. Each is isolated from the other. All three rectified dc outputs are wired together in parallel and the dc is sent via cable to the battery bank.

The stator is made by sandwiching the coils between two pieces of epoxy fiber glass board, the kind used in the manufacture of printed circuit boards. The top and bottom sheets, each 1/16 inch thick, are held together with bolts. They have reinforcing ribs added for stiffness. Power is brought out by means of stainless steel machine screws.

imgIf you’d like to build one yourself, you must know it can theoretically produce 316W, by the formula:

"Watts = Conversion constant * Betz limit * efficiency * area in sq. m * wind^3

In a perfectly efficient turbine,

Watts = .05472 * 59% * 100% * 4.46 * 13^3 =316 watts"

Of course, things are far from perfect, the guys that made this said they got 70W out of it. That’s pretty good! Make a few similar devices, put them on your block and you’ll never pay for electricity again! (more or less - depending on your consumption habits). Anyway, if you live in an area with high winds, these devices can charge some 12V car batteries so they power your home for the morning and evening, when you get back from work. During the night and the day, they accumulate energy. The only serious "permanent" consumer would be your fridge.

Permanent Magnet Alternators

Use these powerful permanent magnet alternators (PMA’s) to make cheap electricity from Wind, Hydro, Steam and Bio-Diesel power systems. Hornet permanent magnet alternators are by no means standard "Automotive" alternators containing brushes and electro-magnetic coils. A PMA does not waste power by having to continuously create an energy intensive magnetic field. Stop wasting up to 50% of your power energizing the coil of standard brush type alternators. Get a real PMA!

PMA Models:

Super Core PMA’s (For use with the Hornet 1000watt Turbine)
SC12
SC24
SC48
SC60
SC120


Slant Core PMA’s (For use with the Hornet 600watt Turbine)
SCS12
SCS24
SCS48

Permanent magnets frameless alternators for Direct Drive





The range of STK Permanent Magnet frameless alternators addresses the applications of Wind Turbine generators in low and medium power needing the highest power-to-weight ratio in Direct Drive without gear for matching cost-effective solutions.




Each component of a wind turbine generator and wind turbine alternator requires maximum strength and precision in order to ensure perfect control over the blades.
