Thermal airfoil turbine

Abstract

The Thermal Airfoil Turbine, as it is conceived, is used to generate mechanical energy, from the thermal energy of an airflow, the energy applied by the airflow to the airfoils in the Thermal Airfoil Turbine, is less by a large factor, usually ten or more than the power generated when the Thermal Airfoil Turbine spins at a certain rotational velocity. This generated power comes from the thermal energy lost, by the airflow passing through the Thermal Airfoil Turbine. It must be emphasized that the difference between this Generator and others that uses airflow, is that the others work with the kinetic energy of the airflow, reducing its velocity so to use it in producing power, on the contrary the Thermal Airfoil Turbine intends not to reduce this velocity at all, producing its power from transforming the thermal energy of the airflow into mechanical energy.

1 . The Thermal Airfoil Turbine, that is to say, a turbine like device that uses airfoils as power active elements, to be used as a power producing device, with a relation between the generated power and the applied power greater than 1 (usually 10 or more) as described in the detailed description of the invention, or other device with any change, that can be used equal, as an airfoil power producing device, with a relation between the generated power and the applied power greater than 1. 
     
     
         2 . Any kind of Moving Vehicle, that uses the Thermal Airfoil Turbine as claimed in  claim 1 , as a total or partial powering aid for the propulsion of the Vehicle, such as represented in  FIGS. 9A and 9B . 
     
     
         3 . Any power generating machine, that uses the Thermal Airfoil Turbine as claimed in  claim 1 , as the basis for generating power, such as an Aeolian Generator,  FIG. 8  (which uses a Thermal Airfoil Turbine, as claimed in  claim 1 ) or any other power generating machine, which uses the Thermal Airfoil Turbine as claimed in  claim 1 , for the same purpose. 
     
     
         4 . Any apparatus or machine that uses the Thermal Airfoil Turbine as claimed in  claim 1  as the basis for air conditioning or cooling systems.
