Taslim Receives Patent for Non-Rotating Wind Energy Generator
MIE Professor Mohammad Taslim was awarded a patent for his "Non-rotating Wind Energy Generator".
Abstract Source: USPTO
In an embodiment of the invention, a non-rotating wind energy generator uses the fluid flow principles of vortex shedding and transverse galloping to generate oscillatory motion of a beam, and alternators, optionally located near both ends of the beam, generate electrical power when the beam is in motion.
