Windside models Windside models
| Windside
is a vertical wind turbine based on sailing engineering,
the wind rotor of which is rotated by two spiral-formed
vanes. Its first testings were made in Southern Finland
both in land and sea circumstances as well as in the wind
tunnel in the laboratory. During this nineteen
years’ research and development work Windside has
tested battery charging systems of different size classes,
and the development work of its own wind turbine product
line towards bigger models continues efficiently. The structures of Windside wind turbine models are different. These differences have been indicated with the alphabet in the end of the model name, i.e. A, B, C. These marks indicate, for which purposes and for what kind of circumstances the model in question has been designed. Turbines with A withstand stormy winds of 60 m/s, with B 40 m/s and with C 30 m/s, producing energy all the time. All WS-Turbines have been made to withstand storms, frost, ice, heat and humidity. |

| WS-Turbines start the charging with very low
wind speeds. The bigger the device is, the earlier it
will start the battery charging. The starting speed for
WS-0,15 is 4 m/s, for WS-0,30 model 3 m/s and for the
bigger ones 2 m/s. The charging will continue even with
lower wind speeds, with the bigger models even at the
wind speed of 1 m/s. The biggest vanes of the Windside wind turbines that have been in serial production have had the diameter of 1 meter and the height of 4 meters. According to the studies of the Technical University, the wind turbine can be upscaled by scaling all the measurings in a way that the geometry will stay unchanged. Thus the Windside wind turbine can be even as high as 200 meters, with the diameter of 70 meters, which would correspond to a plant of several MW. |
