Abstract
In this paper a simplified approach ofMagenn Air Rotor System (MARS) powerwhich is one of therecently found energy source. MARS is a lighter wind turbine that rotates about a horizontal axis in response to wind, generating electrical energy. This electrical energy is transferred down for immediate use, or to a set of batteries for later use, or to the power grid .Helium (an inert non-reactive lighter than air) sustains the Air Rotor which ascend to an altitude for best wind and its rotation also causes the Magnus effect. This provides additional lift, keeps the device stabilized, and keeps it positioned within a very controlled and restricted location. This is the latest technology in Energy sector and cheaper than other techniques and Eco friendly.
Introduction
The 'whirling' noise of windmills is unpleasant to some people, more so if you live close to one. However, harnessing wind power is important, so a number of alternatives to a generic windmill have been proposed. An Ontario-based company is working to place "turbines" floating hundreds of feet high above the ground now let us see the working principle of “MARS” Magenn Power Air Rotor System.The "Magenn Power Air Rotor System" (MARS) is a helium filled, cylindrical device, deployed at 1000ft maximum altitude, which rotates about its horizontal axis in response to the wind, generating clean energy at a low cost than competing systems.
How The Mars Turbine Works
In a few years, you may see scores of giant blimps floating overhead. Those blimps are actually wind turbines. They're not your typical turbine, though. These extremely mobile energy generators, christened with the acronym MARS, will float high the air at altitudes ranging from 600 to 1,000 feet (183 to 305 meters).
