I MAGNETICALLY LEVITATED VERTICAL-AXIS wind TURBINE A Major Qualifying Project Report submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science By Gene Abbascia _____ Kojo Asenso _____ Adam White _____ Submitted: April 30, 2009 Approved by: Professor Alexander Emanuel, Project Advisor _____ ii I. ABSTRACT This project dwells on the implementation of an alternate configuration of a wind turbine for power generation purposes. Using the effects of magnetic repulsion, spiral shaped wind turbine blades will be fitted on a rod for stability during rotation and suspended on magnets as a replacement for ball bearings which are normally used on conventional wind turbines.
the overall operation of the vertical axis wind turbine. A. Wind Power Undoubtedly, the project’s ability to function is solely dependent on the power of wind and
