Wind Turbine - VAWT Long Version

This is one of my design attempts for harnessing low speed wind. (6 to 10 mph) Traditional wind turbines require about 14 mph to become cost effective. To keep it short, many areas could benefit from a system that would produce small scale power or pump water at much lower speeds.

Wind Funnel - Ridge Lift Turbine

This concept takes advantage of Ridge Lift or Slope Lift. When the wind blows against a mountain cliff, or ridge the air flow is deflected upward and depending on the strength, the wind can rise hundreds of feet above the top of the ridge. At some locations it may be possible to design the
