Gorlov helical turbine

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Gorlov Helical Turbine is an adaptation of the Darrieus wind turbine, which was altered to have helical blades and thus a constant rather than pulsed torque vs. time and angle. It was invented by Professor Alexander M. Gorlov of Northeastern University in Boston.

It's design is the basis of some air turbines presently on the market, such as the Turby wind turbine and the Quiet Revolution wind turbine.
