Vertical axis wind turbine
A vertical axis wind turbine has a stator shaft, an electrical generator, a rotating shaft and multiple blades. The electrical generator is rotatably mounted around the stator shaft. The rotating shaft is mounted on and protrudes from the electrical generator. The multiple blades are disposed around the electrical generator and orientated to balance each other. Each blade is connected to the rotating shaft by at least one strut and has a luff edge tapering to a lee edge. The at least one strut is formed on and protrudes from the blade is connected to the rotating shaft. The blades are rotated by the wind independent of wind direction and rotate the electrical generator to convert wind power into electric power.
