A windmill generator with 100 blades instead of 3?
I have btw allways wondered why there is only 3 blades on these windmills, as more blades increase the torque.
Btw: "innovation station
team"? How many are you guys?

vidar now there is 5 of us orginaly there was just me i started it all all of thease ideas are mine other team members have there own ideas wich i will not release public as they do not want me to but all of my own work is open source wich is what all of you are reading that is the work of me with input from others on my team

I have 60 plus years of being around and working on windmills.
Many blades = low speed/high torque....used for pumping water where the starting loads are very high.
Two or three blades = highspeed/low torque elect. generators...almost no starting load.
When many blades try to turn above their design speed they stall, or muddy the air flow. Should a "many blade" become disconnected from the pumping system it will destroy itself in a high wind. Spectactular to watch if it isnt your windmill.:)

60 years! Maybe you can answer a few questions: If more blades are attached, lets say 6 blades, each blade will separately be activated by the wind. Why would this design bli slower as there is more blades to catch the wind?
The startin load is greater, but as each blade is activated by the wind, shouldn't the acceleration of the mill be the same?
Looking forward to your reply :)

here is the drawing it has 8 scoops hard to draw might just have to build it so every one can understand
