ABSTRACT

As the energy requirements increasing day by day the best way to overcome
energy crisis is to produce power in various methods using renewable energy sources. My
paper suggests the production of electricity using bladeless wind turbine.
Wind power has become a legitimate source of energy. Bladeless Wind Power
Generation uses a radically new approach to capturing wind energy. The device captures the
energy of vorticity (property of a fluid related to local angular rotation), an aerodynamic
effect that has plagued structural engineers and architects for ages (vortex shedding effect). As
the wind bypasses a fixed structure, its flow changes and generates a cyclical pattern of
vortices. Once these forces are strong enough, the fixed structure starts oscillating. Instead of
avoiding these aerodynamic instabilities our design maximizes the resulting oscillation and
captures that energy. Naturally, the design of such device is completely different from a
traditional turbine. Instead of the usual tower, nacelle and blades, the device has a fixed mast,
a power generator and a hollow, light-weight and semi-rigid fibre glass cylinder on top. This
puts the technology at the very low range of capital intensity for such projects, it also makes it
highly competitive not only against generations of alternative or renewable energy, but even
compared to conventional technologies.
