WIND-DRIVEN PLANT Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC F03D1/04 F03D3/04 F03D9/00 F03G6/04 

FIELD: power engineering.

SUBSTANCE: wind-driven plant comprises a windwheel installed in a tower, air inlets with a protective grid in the lower part of the tower, oil coolers and a power generator. The tower is arranged as metal in the form of a truncated pyramid, so that air flow being heated from tower walls heated by the sun rises upwards along the metal vessel of the tower. Oil coolers are installed inside the tower so that upper layers of air in the tower vessel are heated by oil coolers. The wind-driven plant comprises a reducer and a centrifugal device in the form of a "snail". The reducer is connected to a shaft of the power generator. The centrifugal device is installed in an upper part of the tower.

EFFECT: improved cost-effectiveness in manufacturing and simplified design of a wind-driven plant.
