New Wind Power – The Wind Belt Invention
Written by admin on November 15, 2008 – 8:42 pm -
Shawn Frayne invented an inexpensive non turbine wind generator called the wind belt. I have no specs other than what you see on the video. I imagine it’s use on the roof of an electric car but obviously it can be used anywhere there is wind. The bennefit is that it is very inexpensive to build as opposed to a standard turbine wind generator.
The fan simulates the wind which moves the belt which moves the magnets through the coils to make electricity to power the clock and LEDs. I don’t know how much the output voltage is.

Its easier to convert to DC power and pound that into an inverter like PV Powered.

interesting idea, how do you regulate the amplitude of the oscillation though ?

well further research SHOULD be done. using different materials could yield better a output.

Nothing new about this, it is the same science experment I did in the 80s. After I copied/ripped off Jock Cousto. He had this and a freaking Circler sail on this vessel. It freaked me out, so I hammered one out.
Testal, Bell, and others have built this thing since the 1800′s.
It is a good experment to learn
This is how it works in layman: Wind moves slower over then threw the box, This causes low presser, Belt vibrates solid magents by coil, This causes low DC output of current.

try to make calculations and see the difference… I think it’s not that effecient enough to compete with the rotational wind turbine efficiencies…
compute the bill of materials.. consider the materials…

go get a sailboat and then take an electric fan and blow the sail. i bet youll get going really fast…
aihlo, how do you suck so badly at physics yet still remotely understand whats going on in this video…?

true, but i’m sure this is only an early model. further research could increase the output.

Even if that did work you wouldn’t get very much energy out of it.

It just occurred to me, violin strings vibrate too. Give your kid violin lessons, attach one of these babies to the strings, and let her power the house.

This would be considered a ‘Pleech’ style generator, you wouldn’t want to use it to solely power a home, you would want to use it as a supplemental source of power on a windy day, just open up your window and set that in the frame and hook it up to your batteries.

hhmm…so im guessing the ammount of materials needed to create a decent ammount of usable energy would be quite substantial. Is there any way to calculate how much material (weight, cost, footprint…etc) it would require to run a normal home? Interesting idea.

The wonderful thing about physics, as opposed to, say, religion, is that it is impervious to whether you “agree” with it or not.
I have an experiment for you. Put a fan in front of your car that the wind will move, convert that to electricity, then use that electricity to power a fan behind you that will push the car forward, creating more wind to create more electricity to move your fan to push you forward.
That should work, right?
Retard.

guys don’t forget the energy laws, thre is only certain amount of energy in moving air at certain speed and area involved, to grab that enrgy you need to intersect that free moving air and capture its cynetic enrgy and turn it into electricity, this works in low power lab, but conceptually is not intended to cover a big area or you will need thousnd of them flutng blades, hwat about the frames and vibration resonance coupling,,,, nahh he’s got just a buzz. remember the Resnic book of Physics

I guess this calls for an experiment…I for one don’t agree with your theory, and it is a theory, until you complete the scientific method, which calls for experimentation if you are a complete noob to how science works. Once you complete the proper steps, theeeeen you come up with a conclusion. what are you an ex conspiracy theorist, just come on videos and say whatever the you want? or do you just want to make everyone as depressed as you must be to come on here and try and tar vision

Adding a wind generator to the roof of an electric car would create drag and would equal a loss of energy not a gain.

Really nice method. Since it is flat, it might have some use for places, wehere a rotor takes too much space. You could place it on the top of your roof all the way from the one side to the other… But isn’t it too loud and noisy? The best marketing argument would be its format. Thumbs up.

The fan is only used to simulate wind. You install the device outside, it is used in place of an expensive wind turbine & will only function on windy days

“That’s false. If …
“That’s false. If your cell is built properly and you have a pulse generator, you can get more output than input.”
The pulse generator is just used to fool cheap measuring devices which have problems measuring anything other than DC or nice, clean sinusoidal AC.
As soon as you get proper measuring equipment the effect disappears.
This Meyers guy almost certainly knows this and uses it to con the gullible.
