How does a WARP module amplify the wind by 50% to 80%?
Nature’s ideal high wind speed site for wind turbines is the saddle ridge which is a combination of a hill top with canyon pass. This is an excellent wind energy amplifier and concentrator. WARP modules mimic this with each peripheral flow channel. However, unlike nature’s saddle ridge, WARP modules uses the saddle ridge profile as a body of revolution and can therefore accept and amplify the wind from any direction to its turbines. Each vertical module level has two such sites for its wind turbines. The degree of amplification depends on module and system configuration and is typically over 1.5 to 1.8 times free air velocity on average. The level of wind speed amplification on WARP, the key factor of a wind turbines’ performance, can be verified and virtually warranted.
