Very interesting! How do bladeless windmills turn?
The material, much like sails, are furled around the individual arms, and when needed will be unfurled to catch the wind, similar to sailboats!
Beautiful shot!
It would be quite interesting to see them in operation!
A great shot Sig. I wonder if they could be used to produce electricity???
Exellent shot.
Most beautiful shot!!!!!!
marvellous shot
Thank you for the info about the sails! I had the same question. It didn't seem like they would be very effective the way they are in the picture! LOL! Sails. Gosh ... what a simple concept, and so obvious for a nation with a seafaring tradition. hits hand on forehead Why didn't I figure that out myself??
They are quite a sight when they are operating and a little noisy too when the sails are flapping :) good shot Sig
with that long center post with the wires, it make me think of some "Ray" gun or antenna Great shot
