Wind Energy in the City Wind Energy in the City

When we study the movementof air in the city, streets behaveas canyons and channels for

accelerating and slowing downthe wind.

As we incorporate wind turbinesinto the building the architecturaldesigner becomes aware of howthe building can shape, funneland harness this huge source of renewable energy.

The windy side of a buildingcan produce an updraft, which if harnessed properly, canproduce thousands of KWHours of power per year.Enough to power the buildingand perhaps the entire blockthrough mini-grids.

Unlike solar energy systemswind energy can work all dayand all night.

Frequent wind speed changes and frequent wind direction changes.

Compare the aerodynamic behavior of the round building vs. the rectilinear building.Consider the potential of the building as an ellipse pointing into the prevailing winds.

mesh to keep birds out or ducted for increasedwind velocities.

LEXAN Double Helix S Rotor: a drag rotor withhigh starting torques. Can accept wind from any

direction. Works with low-speed winds.Darrieus Rotor: Two vertical airfoils produceaerodynamic lift. TSR = 4 (blades go 4 times asfast as the wind).

Boron Neodymium Permanent Magnet DirectDrive, 3 phase Alternator: Ideal for Windy Boyand other utility inter-tie applications.

The new energy architecture will have diffusers and augmentors for thewind turbines. These building elements will accelerate the mass flow of air through the turbines. Diffusers can be horizontal across the roof ormounted vertically along a high-rise. In some cases these shrouds canalso be mounts for PV collectors. The diffusers can also have inlet andoutlet screens to keep birds out. An increase of 2.5 mph in windspeed

through the shroud will double the output of a wind turbine.
