The Energy Ball® V100 and V200

 

This beautiful and low-noise turbine is characterized by the six curved rotor blades which are attached to the rotor hub at both ends. When the Energy Ball® rotor turns it resembles an elongated sphere. This unique feature causes the wind to move parallel to the rotor hub through the rotor. This wind flow direction (flow pattern) forms a key contrast with classic sphere shaped Darrieus turbines, whereby the wind hits the blades perpendicular to the rotor shaft or rotor hub.

 

Due to the unusual and exceptional aerodynamics characteristics of the Energy Ball®, it creates a wind flow pattern that converges first and is then accelerated through the rotor, resembling the rapids in a river (the so-called Venturi effect). This translates into a higher aerodynamic efficiency compared to conventional wind turbine designs. View videos of Energy Ball installations and exhibits.
