Abstract: An apparatus for converting fluidic flow into electrical energy includes a focusing chamber through with fluidic flow enters, a fin diverter positioned adjacent an entrance of the focusing chamber, a constricting chamber positioned adjacent a downstream end of the focusing chamber having a flow passage that converges in a frustum shape, a streamliner positioned adjacent an outlet end of the constricting chamber, an extraction chamber positioned adjacent the streamliner, an energy converter driven by the fluidic flow passing through the extraction chamber for producing electrical energy, and a diffusing chamber positioned to receive at an inlet end the fluidic flow passing out of the extraction chamber, the diffusing chamber having a flow passage that diverges from the inlet end of the diffusing chamber to an exhaust end at which the fluidic flow exits the apparatus.

Abstract: This is a device that uniquely amalgamates the effective functionality of wind tunnel fluid acceleration with power conversion. By encapsulating the conversion function it isolates all moving parts and allows a means for auditory and visual isolation. It has the length and shape that can uniquely employ the related dimensional configuration that optimizes acceleration without inducing perturbation. In addition the unique length and volume allows for the effective use of laminating effects that have proven to be effective in wind tunnel applications. Through the use of the various appurtenances described herein an extended degree of flexibility and efficiency are made possible. Though the strategic selection from a wide range of materials, sizes and shapes the essential dynamics of the apparatus may be installed effectively and economically in a wide variety of contexts. All these advantages make this an instrument of virtually unrestricted contextual application with an incomparable potency.
