Wind Turbine

Wind Turbine

Description

*Update: New top with better air flow and better motor mount. New rear wing. Upgraded gear for better performance and less noise while working. I recommend that you print the gears in PETG or ABS because of hight working temperature. New Column for outdoor camping by sticking in the grass.* This is a simple but effective wind turbine. It is capable of generating 1 Volt with a mild breeze You are able to see a video of the assembly here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQb85M5BKAs You will need: five 3x15mm screws two 3x12mm screws five 4x15x10mm bearings one 4x19x13mm bearing I used the motor that opens the lid of an disc reader, but you can find it here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/MABUCHI-RF-300EH-1D390-DVD-CD-Drive-5-9V-DC-Motor-Drive-Model-Making-Hobbyist-/272771785647 Please share your ideas with me by commeting on how I can improve this design.
