See how the Rexroth Gearbox turns windmills into energy producing machines

See the productive growth of wind power through innovative systems like the REDULUS GPV gearbox, which translates the slower motion of windmills into the fast motion needed to generate multi-megawatts of electricity.

"The results were recorded over weeks in a turbulent wind situation. The setup we used could take a momentary reading of the current watts and the current wind speed. We threw out the highs and the lows to compensate for the gusty location. This is…"

"Hi Jerry throwing the calculating of the maximum efficiency of your system back at me is not answering the questions. I am merely pointing out that you seem to have taken the results and applied the formula to them and come up with the conclusion…"

"Ross you seem to know it all so maybe I should ask you. If the best 3 blade wind turbines are capable of lets say 35% efficiency at certain wind speeds and Betz Limit is 59.3% efficiency what is the maximum efficiency we should be able to attain at…"

"Hi Jerry I harken back to the first part of my previous enquiry about how you allocate the data you have derived from your system, into the formula N=V3 x D2 / 1530 x c. where the power derives as a square factor of the diametre and a cubic function…"

"Hello Ross, I'm not sure if you understand what is false in the statement of "Windtamer". Their claim to beat Betz Limit is based upon the size of the turbine. As example the 4.5 model has a 4' 6" turbine inside of a…"

"Hi all members   I was taken aback by the Youtube Windtamer video in which the opening audio says that their system has beaten Betz theory. hmmmm... I'd love to crack the theoretical limit as well, but its elegance is in its simplicity and…"

"Hi Jerry et al Am I right in thinking that the much of the wind, upon entry to the unit, hits the back face of the unit and then does a right turn and forces its way out of the unit through the blades. If so, have you; measured the pressure…"

"The hoop is nice but the Vortex Wind Funnel is a better solution. It does what the Lens does plus a lot more. It is stronger lighter and produces more power per square inch than any turbine known at this time and in test conducted we think we broke…"

Robert Frederick replied to Susan Rawlings's discussion Wind lens could boost turbine output in the group Windpower Exchange
"It's an interesting design for sure. From the conceptual drawing the hoop design looks somewhat unstable and prone to bending moments that would knock it over.  The pylons holding the structure would have to be more substantial and the the…"

from Randy Frank, SensorTiPS

At Convergence 2010 in Detroit, National Semiconductor’s Dac Tran explains how serial-deserialization (SerDes) technology plays a critical role in delivering camera sensing data in vehicles. The SerDes in the demo is National Semiconductor’s FPD-Link III that provides real-time bidirectional control.

New Gear and Gearbox Optimization Software Reduces Time to Part and Improves Product Performance

Posted on October 19, 2010 at 1:00pm 0 Comments

In response to the gear market’s need for optimization software, which has been lacking for many years, Excel-Lent™ gear/gearbox design and analysis software has been developed by Excel Gear, Inc. (Roscoe, IL) and written in Visual Basics.Net. This software has been written by engineers who also design and manufacture gears for their own use, according to company president N.K. “Chinn”…

Good day,

I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and demand it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on (kayimivedor@gmail.com) for the full details.

Have a nice day.
Mrs.Kayi
