Wind Belt Technology
WindBelt technology is an alternative to costlier and complex wind turbines –. Instead of the conventional focus on “rotation”, this new wind-based power generator capitalizes on “vibration”, making use of a physical effect known as “Aeroelastic Flutter”. Aeroelastic flutter is the phenomenon in which, when air is passed over a thin strip of material create frequencies that translate into vibrations and in the Windbelt’s case, into energy. Presently, the WindBelt device produces a fairly constant energy output at wind speeds between 4-15 Mph. At higher wind speeds the increase in energy output is not significant in proportion to the increase in wind speed.
