COMBINATION WIND POWER PLANT Russian patent published in 2005 - IPC

FIELD: wind power engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to plants generating electric energy to produce hot water for industrial use. Proposed combination wind power plant containing energy generating unit in form of windmill, air flow booster connected with windmill and energy generating and transforming unit in form of air turbine and generator connected to turbine, generator being butt-joined with gas-turbine turbine engine is furnished, according to invention, with heat recovery unit and processing unit, for instance, sea water freshening and cleaning unit made in form of thermal distiller and reverse osmosis device connected with heat recovery unit. Blades of windmill are made divided into sections for turning relative to each other with possibility of turning relative to longitudinal axis. Energy generating and transforming unit is provided with additional self-contained internal combustion engine and electric generator connected with said engine which is coupled with generator of gas-turbine unit to form common power unit. Control system includes device which, together with computer, provides electric parameters similar to network parameters. Energy generating unit is provided with device to divide air flow, said device being connected by flexible air line with air flow booster made programmable, for instance, pneumatic and multistage, whose low-pressure stage is connected with air turbine and with each member of processing unit, and high-pressure stage, with device to evaporate water of thermal distiller and reverse osmosis device which are connected with heat recovery unit. Point of connection of air line and power supply line is common, and torsion shafts coupled with vane engine and turbine are connected to said point.

EFFECT: increased efficiency owing to recovery of exhaust (hot) gases of engine and dissipation heat, enlarged sphere of industrial application of plant.
