Description

1) Technical Field

[0002] The present invention relates to turbines made in vertical and circular shapes in different sizes and dimensions and to turbines that simultaneously convert wind and solar energy into electricity by covering the blades, nacelle and frame parts of these turbines with panels made of solar cells.

[0003] 2) Available practices and their flaws:

[0004] Today, there are many devices and turbines that use wind power to generate electricity. These turbines are manufactured and used in different sizes and with different materials and technologies based on their production capacity. However, none of the existing turbines can generate electricity by using wind and solar energy at the same time. The existing applications mainly have the following shortcomings:

[0005] a) Based on the shape and model they are built in, they can only generate electricity with the energy they draw from the wind. However, these turbines absorb as much sunlight as the space they occupy, and this energy cannot be harnessed.

[0006] b) Turbines that rotate parallel to the ground when they are vertical are able to take advantage of wind from all directions, compared to vertically positioned and vertically rotating turbines, and because they rotate constantly, they are always exposed to the sun in proportion to their rotation speed. However, no model has been developed that can turn this advantage into yield.

[0007] These drawbacks make generating electricity from wind more expensive and inefficient.

[0008] 3) The solution and technical design provided by the present invention:

[0009] The turbine, the subject of the present invention, can be made of many different materials in different sizes and dimensions. The turbine blades, nacelle and frame parts, in short all surfaces exposed to the outdoors, are covered with solar cells, which eliminates all the above-mentioned drawbacks and problems due to its ability to convert wind and solar energy into electricity simultaneously. The continuous use of these two different energy sources together, ie hybrid operation, has allowed to achieve the highest production in a very narrow space at a low cost, regardless of the direction of the wind and the position of the sun.

[0010] 4) Description of the accompanying drawings (pictures):

[0012] 5) Description of the symbols in the drawings:

[0013] The components in the drawings are listed and described below.

[0014] 6) Specific implementation method:

[0016] The invention comprises vertical and circular turbines HT manufactured in different sizes and dimensions, wherein the blades 3, nacelles and frame parts 2 of these turbines are covered with panels of solar cells 1, allowing them to convert wind and solar energy into electricity simultaneously. All these structures are mounted on a mast or platform 4 to create a working environment.

[0017] 7) Industrial applicability of the present invention:

[0018] The turbines, manufactured in different sizes and dimensions and from different materials, are covered with solar cells of different sizes and flexibility and are devices that achieve high efficiency power generation by using two different sources of electricity simultaneously. The raw materials and components used during their production are easily available on the market. The turbines allow us to independently generate the renewable energy needed today in a hybrid way.
