Wind turbine news from Belgium

Hello Mr piggott,

I’m Fabian, 36 years old, from Belgium.
First i want to congrulate you for the invention of this fabulous generator.
I’m a member from “atoutvent2000“, the most active group in belgium for self made wind turbine.
I send you pics from my stator (18 coils with 96 whorls of 6mm wire) it is now assembled between 2 discs (600 mm diameter)with 24 big neodyme magnets on each. This generator has been tested in july and can give 16kw power at 600 rpm.

Now it is placed in my personal wind turbine. It is 24 meter High with 12 meter diameter propeller. It works with gearbox 7.5/1 To multiply the maximum speed of 80 rpm (propeller)To 600 rpm  (generator).

It works very well and i did want to show us that your invention is always in way of évolution.

Now l want to try to assembly a generator that works direct 16kw at 80 rpm to avoid gearbox. A lot of whorls, very big magnets…

To follow..

With pleasure To read you,

Best regards,

Fabian.

    Hello.
    I want to refer to this work and I want to make it from this wind turbine. But I need to know the measurements. For this reason I use coil measurements (inner-outer length values and used wire thickness), magnet sizes, flange diameter … Thank you very much for your help.
    Get plenty of windy days ….
