| Howdy,
Mechanical Engineer speaking on marketing: I saw the video of your turbine mounted on a semi, and I'm 75% sure you're aware this is not adding any power to your system except if your were driving into the wind on a windy day. So I would have moved right along web surfing if it weren't so comical. I would instead display it using a fan. As it is, it looks as though you're trying to advertise this as helping with gas mileage or some other vehicular efficiency improvement along the lines of a perpetual motion machine. |

| Dear Faan, Thanks for your comment. Yes, the noise is an issue with this turbine and I am working on reducing the noise. |

| Thanks Gary,
There are a couple of patents related to flap turbine. The one you send also interesting. I live in Bethlehem, PA USA. |

| us patent 4,218,183 from 1980 describes limited motion flapped windmills
I would love to tr your simple designs too.
I am in Canada near Toronto.
Where are you? |

I'm not sure what your name is , so please forgive me for not addressing yoy properly. I am in Tehachapi CA, and am building all kinds of wind turbines. My VAWT is is a collection of thirty blades, all of which move by the acton of the wind. It is three feet in dia. and three
feet tall. I am setting it up to drive a one KW DC generator.
I don't know how this feedback thing works, but if you would like
to compare notes and project progress, my e-mail is

| Hi,
It's really intersting concept. I am working on improved drag type turbine and was always wondering how lift type turbine be so efficient when they hardly are in contct with gas particles. Serious analysis is needed to put forward theory of drag type |

| working on my own flap turbine atm. Not sure how to build central axle for the thing. Have you hooked up your turbine to an alternator yet to see how much electricity it can produce? |

| Mark, your suggestion for restricting flap movement is very good. My actual application for patent actually includes this, however my demo turbine does not have this future. |

| pretty sturdy. I've an idea for a different type of wind energy capture machine. Power output should be huge, but will need stronger base and some mechanical motion. Need someone to help me design it. |

| I think your VAWT can be improved by limiting the motion of the flaps so they can't go too far backward. Try to tie them together and put a small wire stopper behind the lead flap. Also, probably the flap arrays can be larger because your frame looks pret |
