The Mariah Vertical
Axis Turbine, with its 4 bladed
singular rotor and supporting
plates, is simple in design
and construction. This rugged
component coupled with its
mass (able to provide enough
kinetic energy to generate
utility grade power) will withstand
harsh climates. The Mariah
Turbine utilizes common steel
plate (T-1) available at any
steel supplier. Compared to:
The Multi-Blade
(3-4) HAWT requires light weight
high molecular materials, sophisticated
aerodynamic geometry, stringent
manufacturing protocols, and
a lengthy time frame to build.
Material suppliers coupled
with man hours to build are
indeed serious issues with
this system.
Summary
:
In terms of; Man Hours, Material Costs, Suppliers,
Strength, and Overall Dimensions the Mariah Turbine
is measurably superior to HAWT Technology.
