Problems solved by technology

The horizontal axis wind turbine has low starting wind speed and high wind energy utilization efficiency. It is the mainstream equipment of the current wind turbine system and is widely used. However, the horizontal axis wind turbine also has the following disadvantages: (1) It is difficult to design and manufacture the blades; (2) The bending stress on the root of the blade is large; (3) It is necessary to install a windward adjustment device, and the surface of the wind rotor cannot always face the wind direction. Studies have shown that a deviation of the wind direction by 40° will reduce 50% of the energy utilization rate; (4) Mechanical The system is complex, the manufacturing cost is high, and it is difficult to achieve high reliability; (5) The nacelle of the horizontal axis wind turbine is placed on the top of a high tower, and the center of gravity of the unit is high, unstable, complex in structure and inconvenient for installation and maintenance; (6) The blade cutting airflow will generate a lot of aerodynamic noise. At the same time, it is difficult for many birds to survive under such high-speed blades, which will have a great impact on the ecological environment
[0003] Due to the above characteristics, horizontal axis generators are generally installed in areas with strong wind and sparse population in the wild, and are not suitable for use in densely populated areas with the greatest power demand, so they are also not suitable for small power generation needs such as homes and border posts.
