Structual build-up


The high-altitude wind power station consists of a kind of wing with a diffusor. In this wing there are at least two wind turbines.

These wind turbines are forwarding the mechanical power to a hydrostatical gear, the hydrostatical gear drives a turbo compressor.

The turbo compressor is generating hot air.

The hot air is forwarded in an isolated hose. The hose is also responsible for the fixing.

The hose forwarded the hot air directly to a steam turbine or into a power storage location at the surface of the earth.

The hot air is changed into electrical power with a steam turbine and a generator at the ground.

One wind park exists of eight upper wind power stations.

The uplift is generating from support hoses along the isolated hose and a cushion below the wing, both are filled with hydrogen.

If the weight of the upper wind power station is going higher, there can be added additional support hoses

or the height of the cushion can be increase.

The best place for the upper wind power stations is the area of around 20 - 200 km closed to the seacoasts or in

areas with less population.

To control the high-altitude wind power station, yaw rudders are necessary.

Force compensators or airbrakes can be used to reduce the tensile forces.
