FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to cyclonic aero power converter in other words an
improved wind power generator. More particuiarly the present invention relates to
fixed disc. The fixed disc, promotes efficiently and easy starting at the time of a
low wind speed and also to the wind power equipment is using a wind mill which
can achieve high torque and comply with wind power conditions of an installed
place.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART
To generate electricity, hydraulic power, thermal power or atomic power is
utilized, which involves disadvantages such as natural destruction with a dam,
fuel shortage, air pollution and radioactivity injuries. Clean natural energy such as
solar generation and wind power generation has been remarked over the whole
world. As a power generation device for obtaining small electric power, for
instance, a wind power generation attracts attention in view of an advantage that
an environmental contamination does not arise. In a usual wind power generation
device having a propeller provided on a horizontal shaft has been ordinarily
employed. In such a wind power generation device, the propeller needs to be
directed to the direction of wind. A troublesomeness of detecting the wind
direction or a cost for a controller for adjusting the propeller to the wind direction
is inconveniently required.
Generally, with wind power equipment, the wind mill is used as a means to
change a wind force into rotation driving force, a wind mill is rotated with a wind
force, a generator is driven with the rotation driving force, and electrical energy is

generated. Since such wind power equipment uses the unsteady force of the
force of a natural wind of what can generate electricity safely compared with
other power plants, such as thermal power station equipment, without having a
bad influence on an environment, a living thing, etc., it is difficult to perform the
generation of electrical energy stabilized efficiently.
Especially the thing that it is stabilized and the wind mill of wind power equipment
is started when a wind speed is low, and is made to generate electricity efficiently
is very difficult. Then, in order to consider as the approach of making easy
starting of the wind mill of the wind power equipment at the time of such a low
wind speed and to acquire rotation driving torque required for stable starting of a
wind mill from before, a radius of circle is given to the profile of a wind mill, and it
is carrying out by the approach of improving flow of the wind to an aerofoil, and
the approach of using as the angle of torsion which obtains rotation driving force
with" an efficient aerofoil according to a wind speed using a pitch inverter.
However, by such starting approach, in order to start the wind-mill device section
directly, there was a problem that the adjustment corresponding to the wind
speed fluctuation in a low wind-speed region was difficult, and difficulty was in
operability.
This invention aims at offering the modern type of advanced technology"s
windmill starting promotion equipment, which can promote efficiently easily
starting by which was made in view of the above situations, and the windmill at
the time of a low wind speed was stabilized.
According to the survey conducted by Vim Tukenburg and his friends of a
university of Netherland, it was clear that our earth has enough wind energy to
fulfill the requirement of earth"s electrical power. Vim Tukenburg distributed the
earth into many thousand units and calculated the amount of wind power in each

unit. All the populated areas, prohibited places, mountains and streams were not
included in the survey. The calculations of Mr Tukenburg stated that wind energy
could be converted into electrical energy only when it flows more than the rate of
4m/s. Previous research stated that minimum 7.1m/s of wind flow was necessary
to produce electricity from it. An average 20% of the world"s total area receives
wind energy at the rate more than that of minimum requirement for the
production of electricity. The total of 96 Mega watt /hour can be produced every
year from the energy consumed by the wind energy. The production of the
electricity will be more than that of the normal demand. The survey also tells that
wind energy from 24lakh square km will be enough to fulfill the electricity demand
of the world in the year 2000 very easily. It has been calculated that an area of 1
Sq km, four wind turbines of 1-1 mega watt can be installed. Few places have
even much more than 4 turbines installed in the area of 1 sq km.
Now if we look at the problem, we will see that the survey tells that the wind does
not flow evenly at all places in the globe. For example South Africa has much
more wind power needed for the production of electricity to meet their
requirement and on the other hand wind power in Northwest Asia arrives in a
fluctuating manner. So wind power cannot be taken as the only source of energy.
Whenever the wind energy will fall, we must have another source to produce
electrical power. There is good example of Scandinavia as when the wind flows
sufficiently, the electricity produced is utilized to pump the water at a higher
altitude. On the other hand when the wind energy is not sufficient to produce
electricity, water resource kept at higher altitude is the other way out.
So electricity produced in a huge amount from wind energy will be cheaper than
that of primary method. Lastly if we will utilize wind power by storing, then there
has to be a large amount of changes in the present electrical gadgets.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Now, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with
reference to the accompanying drawings

Referring to Figure 1, which shows the plan view of the rotator system for wind
wave energy generation. The rotator system for wave energy generation consists
of a windmill starting promotion equipment fixed disc (12) with nose cone (A) about 30°
apex angle, having a frame (1) to hold the fixed structure. It is a frame, which
work to hold the front disc strongly. The fixed structure which is also the windmill
starting promotion unit is having fixed blades situated in the outer part (2). It is
part of the front disc. Front disc"s shape is totally round. The front disc is divided
into many parts in roundly structured wind receiving fixed blades (6).
The wind wave energy generation system also consists of wind receiving rotating
blades (3) fitted over a rotor, which is also the moving structure (11) of the wind
wave energy generation system. It is a 2nd part of the front disc. Front disc is
absolutely round. The movable part is also divided into many parts in specially
designed blades (5) so that the maximum thrust is transferred to the windmill
blades. The following air directly attacks to blades (3), the air pass through full
assemble set of rotating disc (11). The thrust transferred from the directed wind
is utilized in the rotation of the wind wave energy generation system.
The structures to the fixed blade assembly and the rotating blade assembly is so
designed that the flowing air from any direction when attack to blades (2) the
flowing air is directed to pass through it in a particular direction and the maximum
thrust is passed on to the blades (3) of the full assembled set of rotating blades
(11). The thrust is applied continuously by the flowing wind to the moving blades
one after the other. Also it has been seen experimentally that if the number of the
fixed blades of fixed disc made equal to the number of the rotating blades of the
rotating disc the rotating blades can use the maximum thrust continuously. The
circumferential size of the rotor blades is preferably equal or can be more than
the size of the fixed blades. Therefore the present system provides a gainful
utilization of the wind energy irrespective of the direction of the flow of the wind.
The said promotional equipment and the rotor have a plurality of support arms /

blades in the radial direction; a heavy circumferential ring is fixed to the outer end
of each of said support arms to construct a flywheel type structure.
The base (4) of the frame (1) is welded to the frame so that the base can hold the
frame strongly. The structures of the frame are made up of strong, non-corrosive,
tough and light weight material preferably the alloys of aluminium. The rotating
disc consumes the most of the energy of the air which is exit / directed from the
fixed disc. The air creates a pressure on the rotating disc"s blade, which creates
a circular movement. The structure of the blades of the rotating disc is nearly
semi circular. When the average linear motion of the blade become half of the
linear motion of the air, then it absorbs nearly all kinetic energy which is present
in air an according to the structure and efficiency of the machine we can get the
kinetic energy to produce electrical energy by dynamo.
The blades (2) of the fixed disc change the direction of the flowing air into
approximately 80 degree to 85 degrees as shown in the figure 6(b) in the
direction of the rotating disc and the fixed blade convert the motion of the coming
air into cyclonic aero when the air exists from it. The air flows at the different
positions are shown in Fig 6 (a), (b).
As per one of the object of the present invention the windmill rotor is horizontally
mounted to a main shaft, said rotor being constructed as flywheel, a plurality of
wind-receiving blades being spaced equally on the circumference of the rotor.
The kinetic energy produced by the movement of the rotor is transmitted forward
through a shaft (7), which is fitted with the rotating disc. The rotating disc is fitted
with the shaft by very well balanced manner to prevent any loss of energy. The
rotating disc is fitted with the shaft with the help of a flange (10). The coupling (8)
is situated at the other side of the shaft to help to move other appliance. Also the
assembly is fitted with a ball bearing (9). The Ball bearing is covered by a double
"Z" and rubber seal for protection because of the presence of dust and moisture

in the air. The kinetic energy thus produced is fed to a dynamo (D) for the
production of the energy.
As per another object of the present invention the wind-receiving blades for the
windmill are mounted to a rotor having a shaft as flywheel, wherein said
mounting support is projected in a direction of rotation, the top end of the wind-
receiving portion being fixed forwards to the end of the mounting support.
As shown in figure 4, the distance between the fixed blade assemble an the
rotating blade assembly should be kept minimum so that the maximum amount of
thrust can be transferred to the moving blades. Practically the distance is
maintained less than 3mm for mechanical constraints and it is necessary too.
As per the experiments carried out with the wind energy generation system as
disclosed herein and the 3 blade fan turbines as available the results obtained
are as under:-
The area of the fan blades is taken as 0.126Sq Mtrs.



The ratio of output in terms of watts is 6.571 times compared to the conventional
3-blade fan turbine
The ratio of output in terms of torque is 8.33 times compared to the conventional
3-blade fan turbine
Therefore it may be concluded that the energy generated is more than 6 times in
the same wind conditions and the dimensions of the fan blade.
