Abstract: The present invention is an RWVT for converting relative wind energy into electrical energy using a vortex that leads into an axial flow rotary turbine alternator which provides energy for operating a generator. The result is renewable energy that can be scaled for all energy requirements. Said axial flow rotary turbine is cylindrical in shape and mounted in a forward to aft position to capture relative wind most effectively in the vortex. The RWVT may be used in many diverse applications with minimal modifications. The applications include, but are not limited to, land, water and air vehicles, as well as, structures and objects—anywhere relative wind may be captured.
