Unlike any Wind Turbine you've EVER SEEN : The Liam F1

Right now, the best wind turbines that work really well need to be really tall and aren't great for homes. First, smaller wind turbines have not created enough electricity to justify their high costs. Even worse, most small wind turbines create noise as much as they create power. The noise and vibrations make their presence an inconvenience to home and business owners. The cleanest, freest energy in the world isn't worth it if the thing making it creates enormous amounts of distracting noise. People also worry about birds hitting them, like they do with bigger wind farms. Archimedes, a Dutch company, has taken steps to eliminate these small wind turbine issues. Their product. The Liam F1 turbine is a small scale wind turbine. Designed for residential or commercial use is nearly silent when an operation and creates power much more efficiently than earlier generations of small wind turbines as the company name suggests. The Liam F1 Urban Wind turbine's unique turbine shape is inspired partly by the Greek mathematician Archimedes and by the natural spiral design of the Nautilus shell. Along with its claim of being able to achieve 80 percent of Betz's limit, Archimedes says their Lium F1 turbine is capable of generating 1500 kilowatt hours of energy annually at wind speeds of around 11 miles per hour. As with all wind turbines, more power is created at higher wind speeds and less power at lower speeds. Lots of homeowners choose to combine wind turbines with solar panels to generate all their energy without relying on the main power grid. The new Archimedes Liam F1 turbine goes perfectly with rooftop solar panels, making it possible to live off grid all the time. But what's really impressive about this compact wind turbine is its design. The three circular blades wrapped around one another create a three dimensional conical turbine. That form factor reportedly results in minimal mechanical resistance, allowing it to spin very freely and to operate quietly. This rotor always points in the direction where the wind blows and converts its kinetic energy into mechanical energy. Due to this shape of the rotor, energy is efficiently created even during turbulent environments. The gadget only needs winds of 2 meters per second to start rotating and producing energy. The two part only device makes it 100 percent mechanical and requires minimal maintenance. The largest model is 1. 5 meters wide. The smallest is 0. 75 meters wide. You can even align several units to harness more energy. The smart wind turbine for domestic use could probably be the design of the future when it comes to self sufficient energy homes. People who choose to invest in residential wind and solar products are usually also taking proactive steps to reduce the overall amount of energy their home needs in the first place. This is an important point. The less energy a home needs, the more effective wind and solar energy become.
