Asterion Technologies was able to test the real world performance of the Enhanced Airfoil Blade Modification on a 30cm diameter micro wind turbine.
The wind turbine was coupled with a 3-phase generator that had it’s electrical energy output recorded and stored with the use of an Arduino microcontroller. Steady winds from Lake Huron allowed for ideal testing conditions.
This resulted in a total wind turbine efficiency increase of 4.25% when compared to the baseline wind turbine.
