Pressure Differential Fluid or Wind Driven Power Generator
Abstract The Stroh Energy Converter (SEC) is a new machine for generating, accelerating, and converting fluid kinetic energy into useful electric energy for human consumption. It overcomes the primary downside of traditional wind generated energy by eliminating the dependence on naturally occurring wind. Like wind energy, it can generate electricity without any generating greenhouse gas emissions. It can utilise any difference in pressure between two distinct areas, including layers of the atmosphere or on different sides of a wall or structure, man-made or naturally occurring structure. It may also function in areas of comparable pressure but only when wind is blowing over one of the openings. Its functioning is assisted by Bernoulli's Principal and its shape is optimised to take advantage of the Second Law of Thermodynamics and the Law of Continuity. Bernoulli's principle assists the design in generating flow as it states that an increase in speed of a fluid occurs simultaneously with a decrease in pressure. So, when a fluid moves at a higher velocity over the smaller opening, it will create a low-pressure area that draws in the higher-pressure fluid at the other opening and generates a flow of fluid (liquids or gas). The Law of Continuity states that the rate at which mass enters a system is the same as the rate at which mass leaves a system. If a tube decreases in diameter and a fluid is entering at a constant rate, then the fluid would increase in speed as the tube decreases in diameter. The shape of the structure takes advantage of these three laws of physics with its cone-like shape with convex, inwards facing walls that accelerate the fluid inside. rMN Go L VO If'%. to
