Magenn Air Rotor System: Power Production
Abstract
The Magenn Air Rotor System (MARS) is the next generation of wind turbines with cost and performance advantages over existing systems. Helium sustains the Magenn Air Rotor System, which ascends to an altitude as selected by the operator for the best winds. MARS is a lighter than-air tethered wind turbine that rotates which is connected to a generator, in response to wind, generating electrical energy. This electrical energy is transmitted to the ground by a conductive tether for consumption or to a set of batteries or to the power grid. Its rotation also generates the “Magnus” effect. This aerodynamic phenomenon provides additional lift, keeps the MARS device stabilized.
