Title:
SHIP HAVING A WIND POWER GENERATOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/062345
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a ship having a wind power generator, comprising: a structure installed on a deck on an upper surface of the ship; a wind-collecting tower which is spaced apart from the structure, and which is installed on the deck such that the height of wind-collecting tower is lower than the height of the structure, and the width of the wind-collecting structure is smaller than the width of the structure; an air duct for conveying wind introduced from the wind-collecting tower; a turbine which rotates by means of the wind conveyed from the air duct; and a generator which operates in accordance with the rotation of the turbine. The wind-collecting tower comprises: a wind tunnel having a circumferential surface including a plurality of through-holes for the introduction of wind; and a guide unit having a plurality of guide passages arranged along the circumference of the wind tunnel so as to guide wind to the through-holes. The guide unit comprises: a plurality of wind-collecting plates arranged in a radial direction along the circumference of the wind tunnel; and a plurality of guide plates interposed between the wind-collecting plates and spaced apart from each other in a vertical direction. The wind power generator operates to generate power by means of the wind generated during the sailing of the ship or by means of natural wind, thus eliminating the necessity of using the power of an engine for generation, preventing an increase in fuel consumption and improving the efficiency of the energy utilization of the ship.
