MODE(S) FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION OR A DETAILED DISCRETION OF THE INVENTION

Most Wind (Wind-Solar) hybrid infrastructures have large land used per unit of the less-reliable & lesser efficient wind energy production, pose threat to natural habitat, and incur noise pollution along with effecting aesthetics in case of wind farms.

New technology is the need of the hour that will lower costs, increase reliability and energy production, solving regional deployment issues, expanding the resource area, developing infrastructure and manufacturing facilities, and mitigating known environmental impacts meeting the energy demands of the society. The Multi-tier Elevated Super-structural Novel Renewable Energy Infrastructures (MESNREI) 100 is brought to eliminate such associated drawbacks. This shall comprise of the followings main components: a) A plurality of vertically erected structural platforms 101 placed one above the other (entire assembly oriented in any form/shape/pattem/size) for various types of plurality of wind turbines 102 having a novel advanced harmonic mean predictive Yaw/Pitch control system 135, installed on the novel lateral moving pedestal base-plate 103, including optional novel Enclosed Cage Flapper Guided assembly systems 104 for some types of wind turbines 102 as per usages, on extended portions 105 of each of the platform 101 at various elevations. This MESNREI system 100 is designed to place wind turbines 102 in an efficient multi-directional patterns on each of the single tier/platform 101 of this system at a particular area. This is in order to obtain maximum efficiency from natural winds at that particular site. This feature is depicted in figure no 1 as shown; b) Top roof 106 shall have a facility system for installing portable wind turbines 107 in air floating balloon/parachute enclosures 108 for high altitudes applications having supports consisting of hollow cylindrical piping 109 consisting of plurality of electrical conducting loops/mesh 110, along with atleast 1 free moving rod comprising magnets (permanent) 111 (magnets placed at all of the same elevations as said electrical loops) placed inside each of the hollow cylindrical piping 109, along with arrangements of novel solar panels 116 having arrays of novel protruded solar photovoltaic shells (outside & inside) 112 with a hole 113 along with solar concentrated collector systems 114; c) Balcony type railing systems 115 along the above extended portions 105 shall be from all sides at each platform for safety, access, maintenance & shall also host a plurality of novel solar panels 116 along the railings top edges 117 containing novel protruded solar photovoltaic shells 112 with a hole 113 along with solar concentrated collector systems 114 or a larger solar photovoltaic shells 112 as standalone items, as can be figured out in Figure no 1. The MESNREI system 100 as defined shall also have the following features but not limited to: a) Industrial/domestic grade type platform grating systems 118 of any shape & size at all platform elevations supported on, columns, beams etc i.e along with all structural components 119, civil/structural foundations 120 such as the pile/pier/raft/cantilever/truss systems etc that are erected as per industry practices/rules/codes/statutory standards/general standards. The minimum elevation at which first platform 121 shall be build depends on the sufficient annual average workable natural wind availability at said particular elevation at that site. The material of construction of the components of these structural systems 119 shall be of any material suitable for the specific application; b) At the centre area of the said MESNREI 100, there shall be an arrangement of elevator/ stair-case 122 for going up & down from/to the grade level 123 to the different platform elevations/ top roof for on-shore installations. For off-shore installations, there shall be stair-case facility from penultimate platform apart from arrangement of elevator/stair- case 122 for going up & down from/to the first platform 121 to the different platform elevations upto the penultimate platform 124; c) The pedestal base-plate 103 shall have provision of bottom base-plate 125 (with all mechanical, electrical, electronic components & accessories such as studs, nuts & gaskets etc 155, having at the least, roller wheels 157 with brake drum/disc/any, brake shoe lining, return spring, dedicated control system etc) for feedback lateral to-fro movement control along with provisions of maximum amplitude distal travel from the centre point, which shall be such that so as to maintain adequate distances from the novel enclosed cage type flapper guiding system 104 also on all sides of the wind turbine if applicable. The rail system 156, part of the bottom base-plate 125, on which roller wheels 157 run, shall have the grooved designs (with diamond/bezel cut at the edges etc) in order to smoothly run through the protruded tooth of the wheels the upper base-plate 158, shall have the same design from inside as is with the bottom base-plate 125. The Advance harmonic mean predictive control system 135 as defined, shall be part of the wind turbine Main Intelligent Control System 136 for such cases, to generate the nearest & the best predictive harmonic mean of all the pre-failure healthy signals values of each category of failed sensor inputs over a pre-set period of time elapsed (which shall be manually/automatically adjustable) and consequently for generating the near best control signals for the prevailing yaw/pitch controls. The harmonic mean is the only type of mean method considered for all the pre-failure healthy signals and not any other type of mean method such as arithmetic or geometric, because harmonic means work best or has the best predicting structure, in cases where there is unpredictability in process sensor inputs such as wind velocities, wind directions etc (after the respective sensors are at faults or are burned out) to the functional computation systems. Here the major unpredictable inputs are wind velocity, wind direction & wind angle of incidence. Following is the basic tentative control system description along with the algorithms on which the basic core model of this innovative control system 135 will work:

The harmonic mean H of the sensor values with positive real numbers is defined to be

Hwv (wind velocities) = n/ (1/Xl + 1/X2 + . +1/Xn)

Hwd (wind directions) = n/ (1/Xdl + 1/Xd2 + . +1/Xdn)

& Hai (angle of incidence) = n/ (1/Xal + 1/Xa2 + . +1/Xan)

Each of the above mean values of different mentioned wind parameters are then compared with their standard mean available in the embedded databases inside the innovative control system 135, for these various wind parameters average values throughout that period of the day of that week/month/past previous years, with data collected either through experiments or from the metrological/ weather department of that particular area considering conditions such as geographical terrains, elevation above mean sea level, temperature, humidity etc. If the difference is marginal i.e within a preset differential value, then the above mentioned harmonic mean will be taken as the final input to the controller, however if the same is above the preset differential value, then higher of the two will be taken as the final input to this controller.

The Main Intelligent Control System 136 (of which control system 135 is a sub-set) shall be such that so as to have sets of intelligent algorithms, all interconnected with each other in a star topology, aiming to produce the most efficient functioning of the wind turbines. For example the neural control for the wind turbine should be like an adaptive controller which has the learning ability to train the neural network so that will allow the turbine to produce the best result possible for a set of given conditions. To accomplish this, the neural network shall have an algorithm so that the final evaluated input error produces the proper control parameter to be applied to the turbine to produce the desired aerodynamic power.

Now let us see how the inventive wind turbine 102 will look like. Following shall be the main features:

It shall have novel solar panel 116 flushed mounted into each of the blade of wind turbine 102, shall have all the features as defined below and the weight selection of the novel solar panel 116 shall be optimised so as to have an increased overall efficiency of the wind turbine 102.

The optional Enclosed Cage Flapper Guiding systems 104 as defined shall comprise of the followings:

There shall be Cage rods 126, separated in a way so as not to allow hindrances to wind flow. Also there shall be Individual flappers 127 attached to the individual cage rods 126, having free movement facilities.

The separation between the flapper vertical outside edges 128 of the two neighbour flappers shall create relatively small area (i.e as seen from top-view each flapper 127 looks like a pastry/cake piece with pointed portion at the cage rod 126 & broadest portion towards the wind turbine 102), which shall produce an appreciable pressure drop in order to achieve relatively high wind velocity & uniform wind impingement. The non-uniformity in rotation of the wind- turbine is one of the main drawbacks of this kind of energy production and which also affects the overall functionality & stability of the downstream electrical equipments such as grids, distribution systems. Using this flapper system 127, there shall surely be increased stability & uniformity in the wind energy production depending upon the degree or percentage of use of this type of feature in the entire MESNREI system 100 and is part of the detailed engineering. That means there shall be a trade-off between the separation of the flappers 127 in order to not pose any hindrances to actual wind and the relative small area they shall making for producing high velocity impingement.

Cage type flapper guiding system 104 shall also provide adequate space for any yaw/pitch/pedestal lateral/advanced control movements of wind turbines 102 such that the movements of the specific turbine system 102 components shall not pose any hindrance to the cage type flapper system 104.

The height of the lowest tip 129 of the blades of wind turbines 102/cage type flapper guiding system 104 shall be well above the uppermost edge 130 of the balcony railing system so as to avoid inefficiencies or hindrances in the flow of the wind.

The nearest flapper vertical edge 128 as seen from wind turbine, shall have the surface made in such a way so as to have noise attenuation designs 131, which shall comprise of inscribed/protruded miscellaneous key-teeth shaped, zig-zag, combed type, stone/brick cladding type, etc to reduce the effect of noise generated from wind turbines.

Noise pollution is one of the main problems of the wind energy production which not only affects the inhabitants residing nearby but also affects the biological ecosystem such as animals, diversion in birds yearly routes, their yearly migration attendance etc. Using these noise attenuation designs 131, there shall surely be a decrease in the level of noise that is generated from among the rotating parts of the wind turbines. The same shall again depend upon the percentage of use of this type of feature in the entire MESNREI system 100 and is part of the detailed engineering.

The most important & inventive part of this system is the new solar photovoltaic shells (miniature or large) 112 (which shall have inner shell part & outer shell part), which shall comprise of the following minimum components:

a) a through hole 113;

b) solar concentrated collector system 114 for concentrating the sunrays through the hole

113; c) light deflector 132 placed diametrically opposite to the hole 113 inside the shell, such that the inside solar surface 133 behaves as a black body arrangement for utilising maximum incident light energy inside;

d) the position of the said solar concentrated collector system 114 shall be such that, the focal point of the same shall fall at the said light deflector 132;

e) self-supporting structures (including hollow stand/yoke) 134 for holding the large standalone solar photovoltaic shells 112 along with the solar concentrated collector system 114;

f) each inside shell 144 and outside shell 145, shall have n-type/p-type cells arrangements; g) having a diffuser or an insulator 143 between inside shell 144 and outside shell 145 and the n-p junction 161 between each combination of n-type & p-type cells of each shell. The n-p junction at each of the shell (inside or outside) is the normal n-p junction between any n-type & p-type semiconductors/conductors/any type of photovoltaic cells etc, for current production;

h) electrical interfaces accessories such as solar shells 112 positive metallic grid/ electrodes, negative metallic grid/ electrodes, ground/earthing leads, connectors, adaptors, cables routed through the hollow vertical stand/yoke/pipe 146 on which larger solar shell 112 is installed as an independent entity or as a standalone. The array of solar shells 112, shall be such that the negative voltage contact of a shell shall be serially connected to the neighbouring shell positive voltage contact in order to produce or behave as a series of batteries etc;

i) a light cum rain sensitive self-adjusting matrix grid assembly 152, beneath these arrangements of solar shells 112, having at least one light & rain sensitive elements 159, electronic circuits, metallic contacts for propagating the produced currents at the pivot/helm 154 (steering the solar shells 112 to the right or left based on sun path or opposite to the rain direction), through the hollow tube/pipe grid assembly for these shells mounted in an array on a panel;

j) inside shell 144 and outside shell 145, shall further have an anti-reflecting transparent coating shell, transparent adhesive shell, tempered toughened glass shell

We all know in terms of efficiency of the conventional solar cells, the same are only of the order of 40-60%, however with the advent of the above features part of the new solar photovoltaic shells (miniature or large) 112, there shall surely be an increase in the efficiency of the same as there is an increase in the surface area due to the spherical curvatures which also utilises the surrounding ambient natural daylight from all the directions and also specially due to the black body arrangements inside shell 144 which most efficiently utilises all of the concentrated sunlight coming inside.

The novel solar panels 116 (including novel solar concentrated collector systems 114), shall comprise of the following:

a) a panel/substrate 149;

b) an array of miniature fully/partially/embedded solar photovoltaic shells 112 as defined above having features from a), b), c), d), f), g), h), i) (optional), j) embedded on the said panel/ substrate 149 in matrix form. However miniature solar shells 112 shall be protruded as less as possible from the panel/ substrate 149 so as to serve both the purposes of wind & solar energy conversions efficiently. Also, this matrix array of solar shells 112 shall be in such a way so that the scattered lights from the surface shall have some portion also falling on others solar shells 112 placed adjacent to the previous one. The array of solar shells 112, shall be such that the negative voltage contact of a shell shall be serially connected to the neighbouring shell positive voltage contact in order to produce or behave as a series of batteries etc

c) a smooth cavity portion holding each of solar shells 112 i.e either fully or partially or embedded in the panel

d) two-piece retractable modular shutter door 153, with piece-magnet on edges of opposite doors, having motor controlled pivots 160, shutting down/ closes when wind turbine 102 goes over a particular pre-defmed threshold speed/ rain comes or opens up when the speed goes below a certain pre-defmed threshold speed/rain goes away. These pre- defmed minimum speeds could be manually selected over a selected range of the rated turbine speeds. While opening the doors against the magnetic effects of the piece- magnets, the motor controlled pivots shall be designed to produce required levels of torque to dislodge the piece-magnets.

The portable wind turbines 107 in air floating balloon/parachute enclosures 108 (which could be of any shape, size & designs) for high altitude applications, shall comprise of the following: a) at least one rigid support consisting of hollow cylindrical piping 109;

b) the said cylindrical piping 109 shall consists of plurality of electrical conducting loops/mesh 110 in all directions, however arranged longitudinally in a particular pattern so as to make the meshes in a single vertical line behaving as if in a series of metallic loops such as small cells are arranged in a series to produce overall high emf

c) along with a free moving rod comprising magnets (permanent) 111 at all the same elevations as said electrical loops 110, having both ends tied to the rollers for lateral to/fro movement in the grooves

d) the said moving rod comprising magnets 111, are attached directly to the balloon/parachute enclosures 108 at upper end and to the lower base with an attachment to a roller with groove for to/fro movement facility inside the hollow cylindrical piping

109

e) free movement of rod comprising magnets 111 (due to the movement of balloon/parachute enclosure 109 owing to the effects of natural wind velocity at that height), induces currents in the electrical conducting loops/mesh 110, both near to the north pole side & also away from the south pole, in the same direction according to faraday’s laws of electromagnetic induction. The direction of these induced currents are in the same direction as when the magnet north moves towards one metallic loop, the south pole moves away from the another loop. The loops 110 shall be crafted through out all the directions of the pipe 109, but in the same sequential manner which ensures diagrammatically opposite series of electrical conducting loops/mesh 110. The current rating or current carrying capacity of the loops 110 shall be selected in such a way so as to cater to the preceding cumulative induced currents already coming from upside towards that loop. Also, the cylindrical piping has to be made in such a way to produce the graded voltage potential differences from upside towards downward direction so as to always have the cumulative current direction from top to bottom where the charge collector/amplifying system is there.

f) having an insulator piping array 151 between the cylindrical piping 109 and the free moving rod comprising magnets 111 so as to maintain air gap for above effect to take place without any hindrances

g) a current collector cum transformer/amplifier system 150 for generating large currents Also, in this case, we can have any number of cylindrical piping 109, around one portable wind turbines 107 in air floating balloon/parachute enclosures 108, which shall just multiply the amount of currents produced. Also, the more the elevation, more high the mean annual wind power density at the maximum elevation which inevitably helps to create more wind thrust and thus creates more profound movements, generating higher levels of wind power and induced currents in the cylindrical piping 109.

This current collector cum transformer/amplifier system 150 shall have output connected to the actual converter system dedicated for the actual portable wind turbines 107 in air floating balloon/parachute enclosures 108, so as to jointly produce combined enhanced power

The MESNREI system 100, shall further comprise followings per platform/roof: a) a plurality of wind turbines 102 on each extended portion 105 of the platform such that, along with a balcony type railing system 115 for safety, access & maintenance b) the difference of height between two platforms shall be such that the wind turbines 102 installed on the platform shall have adequate minimum over head clearances for safety, interference free, maintenance, any relative aerodynamic effect with wind turbines 102 above or below etc

c) the separation between two wind turbines 102 installed on the same platform shall always have adequate minimum side-side clearances for safety, interference free, maintenance, any aerodynamic effect such as wake effect or any shadow effect etc d) an array of novel solar panels 116 from all sides and the said novel solar photovoltaic shells 112 (depending on the sun’s path) along the railings top edges
