DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The alleged invention relates to the field of wind energy and can be used in the development of wind farms into large and very large capacity for both electric and other energy commercial with the placement of a working machine on the truck kite, for drilling in exploration parties to clear mines of explosive gases to drive the propeller ship or ocean-going vessels for the energy supply of individual regions or shelf.

Known wind energy installation, comprising wind turbine, kinematically connected with the compressor connected to an electrical generator turbine and receivers, high and low pressure, the first of which is connected to the output of the compressor. The well-known wind power plant described in the literature, "The state of scientific and technical basis for the development of wind energy and recommendations on the use of wind turbines." VIESKh M., 1966, p. 32-34.

The well-known wind energy installation is to create a large capacity industrial importance, since it is fixed on the farm, set on the ground, and, as the wind energy inventory, it is impossible to create a high power energy because of the low annual average wind speed.

Known wind energy installation, comprising the balloon in the shape of a ball located on the basis of the generator, the torsion wire, one end is pivotally connected to the balloon and the other to the shaft of the generator, and subsequently attached to a rope wind wheel. Known for wind power plant is represented by U.S. Patent N 4165468, cl. 290 55, publ. 1979

To a certain setting is not possible to adjust the height of lift windwheels for posting on the heights with the necessary wind speeds, which reduces the generation of electricity due to incomplete use of the wind speed at height.

Known as wind power installation comprising an aircraft as part of the ball with aerostatic lift, wind turbines, the working machine, the unit of energy transfer to the ground, mounts on the aircraft and on the ground, regulators. Known for wind power plant is represented by U.S. Patent 4207026 N cells. 416 84 (class F 03 D 11/00), publ. In 1980.

In a technical solution, taken as a prototype, you can not realize the power generation in a large and very large quantities, because of the consistent establishment of wind turbines, which is also consistent with the establishment of aircraft component aerostatic lift force on a single device, the energy transfer to the ground, unable to implement a repair installation of individual nodes by removing part of balloons with the wind turbines on them.

Solved the technical challenge is to increase energy production in large and very large quantities in the implementation of the requirements of maintainability.

In the high-altitude aerostatodinamicheskoy power plants, containing an aircraft component with aerostatic lift, wind turbines, the working machine, the unit of energy transfer to the ground, mounts on the aircraft and on the ground, regulatory authorities, an aircraft component with aerostatic lift is designed as a profiled platform consisting of two and in the bearing and having a curvature along the span of aerodynamic elements connected in a horizontal plane of the aircraft in the ring, where wind turbines are located and, and working machines, producing energy, each working machine is kinematically connected to the respective wind turbines, and a part of the wind turbines installed profiled in the perimeter of the platform and the other part of wind turbines installed in front of her in the vicinity of the maximum horizontal longitudinal section, and placed in it without a moment to roll the mass of a wind turbine with different directions of rotation, providing deviating down for propeller blades of the air streams of current decrease induced drag aerodynamic profiles of the circular wing, and the output shaft of a wind turbine is installed with switchable clutch propulsion system for the takeoff and landing, except the most in the working machine, placed on the aircraft, coupled with the power transmission device to the ground with an energy machine that converts energy of compressed air electrical energy with the subsequent transfer to the consumer and / or device of electrolytic dissociation of the electrolyte, with stored energy in the form of receiver for the decay products of the electrolyte, such as hydrogen produced by electrolysis of water to the consumer as a working body, other than just her job as a machine compressor For example, centrifugal type, connected with the corresponding wind turbines through the multiplier, flow of their communicated with each other so that the input of each compressor in communication with the subsequent release of the previous compressor, the compressor and the output of the last reported device, power transmission from an aircraft in a pressure hose to the input energy machines, such as the input of the turbine, mounted on the shaft of an electric generator whose output is connected to a network of consumers of electricity and / or the input power machine, and input of the first compressor in communication with air intakes in the form of a perforated outer surface of the negative pressure in the flow profile of the ring wing of the oncoming air stream, and the delivery hose is designed as a thin-walled metal tube with a wound on its outer surface of high-fiber material and fixed to a rotating drum with a radius of the mount, providing acceptable strain pressure hoses for winding on the rotating drum, above all in it longitudinal axis of each wind turbine, located behind the profiled platform is shifted relative to the longitudinal axis of the profiled platform in the direction of increased pressure in the annular airfoil wing oncoming air stream, above all in it in an aircraft on an external sling za profiled platform down the air flow is an additional aircraft component of aerostatic lift from wind turbines and the working machine in the form of a compressor, kinematically connected via a multiplier, and suspension components are made in the form of additional hoses, generators farm spatial suspension cabling when completing their working fluid under pressure through the compressor input reporting regulators with air profiled on the platform, and the output it through the regulatory agencies as a means of propulsion and pressure hoses, above all in it for aircraft and hoses attached suction hose, the entrance of which is placed in the shaft with suction explosive gas, and the output of the suction hose is connected to with the fuel system propulsion system, the output device which communicated with the cavity of a jet drive propulsion turbine blade tips, above all in it for an additional aircraft mounts installed in a rotating drum for the hoses or the umbilical cord to aerostatodinamicheskogo altitude aircraft, other than just It has an annular wing brackets with mating elements for the connection of one aircraft to another, except the most in-ring holds wings curved in the longitudinal plane, and its longitudinal axis has a radius of curvature in the longitudinal direction, above all in the ring in her wing of the channels that form slotted airfoil, above all in her flying machine is designed as an open ring in the transverse plane, above all in it on the outer surface of the aircraft deployed film converters of solar energy into electrical energy, the output of which communicated with the authorities as an aircraft, and with energy consumers for an additional cable.

The presence of significant differences can increase the production of energy on a large and very large quantities in the implementation of the requirements of maintainability of a working machine on the truck kite.

The increase in energy production is achieved not only the best use of wind energy inventory, from which it is known that at the height of the average annual wind speed is much higher (as for H 0 m is the air density  1.225 kg / m ³ , the average wind speed in the middle bands of Russia is equal to W 2 m / s, then at H 10,000 m, air density r 0,414 kg / m ³ , the wind speed is equal to W 20.22 m / s) but also the use of compressed air in the compressor, not only as a working machine, but also a potential force field, which realized during the motion of a particle from a working machine at the height of the energy machine is installed on the ground, as it makes the bulk of the mass of wind power installation. Using the pressure of the air flow, which is characterized maloizmenyayuscheysya value of wind speed at height during the year, for the wind component in addition to the aerostatic lift component, whose magnitude is much greater than the latter. A significant increase in the lift of the aircraft (kites) and ensure the dynamic equilibrium of three forces proper weight of the aircraft and wind turbines, the wind pressure on its supporting surface and pulling the hoses attached to it, can increase the number of wind turbines on board the aircraft and thus increase the area of removal of distributed energy (wind), low density for the subsequent conversion of the energy of high density in a working machine (power of compressed air). The layout of the aircraft in two airfoils with a radius of curvature along the span, connected in a horizontal plane with a slit profile and the radius of curvature of longitudinal axis, ensures the stability and controllability of the aircraft at high values ​​of wind speed, while as the prototype is already in the presence of the wind speed W 5.7 m / s will have a great difficulty in sustaining flight aerostatic aircraft. The distribution of an annular wing span of the payload, ie the mass of wind turbines, significantly reduces the weight of the ring wing.

The presence of significant differences allows us to go to a fundamentally new approaches in the design of "aerial platform", iecargo kites to be placed on them by weight of small wind turbines, consisting of a centrifugal compressor which is connected kinematically through the multiplier to increase the peripheral speed of the impeller with a propeller blade from the government.The increase in aerodynamic lifting surface and a decrease in weight of the aircraft can increase the number of wind turbines, in which a message on the air path inputs and outputs sells compressors to obtain a high density of energy transferred to the earth, transformed from a small distributed wind power density at the height of which is to eat a large area with bladed propeller wind turbines. The energy machine, depending on the type of required energy conversion is compressed air on the ground in case of electricity or hydrogen as the working fluid, or under the ground in case of using compressed air as the working fluid drive drilling tool drilling rig or ship propeller drive for swimming in the sea ​​and ocean lines.

The dynamic balance of the aircraft is provided by the three forces, one pulling the hoses that connect the output of a working machine on the aircraft and the input power the machine on the ground. Delivery hose, as one of the most crucial components power plant operates as a multi-layer thin-walled metal tube with a wound on the outer surface of high-strength fiber material, which supplies compressed air to power the car. On the delivery hose tensile forces acting on the air pressure and drag force of the aircraft, as well as compressive forces acting on the mass forces. However, the input of a separate working machine can be connected to suction hose with a cavity of the shaft with explosive gas and then using it as a working body in the afterburning thrust to increase the jet drive compressor blade propeller, providing an increase in wind power installation.

Contribute to increase the aerodynamic qualities such distinctive features as the establishment of the blade propeller (breaking a clutch connected to the propulsion system) before letatelnyi apparatus, after the action which the counter-current trickle down deviating reduce induced drag airfoils, the longitudinal axis of the aircraft, having a radius of curvature in the longitudinal plane creates an extra effort when the direction of flow (turbo effect) channel, forming a slotted airfoil, help to increase the lift by controlling the boundary layer flow. 

Connect one aircraft to another, and the possibility of uncoupling and coupling in the air can not only increase the wind power installation to a particularly large quantities, but also create the opportunity undock a single aircraft to land it, and repair.

This way, the solution of the problem, namely an increase in energy production in large and very large quantities in the implementation of wind turbines maintainability requirements.

The analysis of technical solutions with a similar set of essential features were found.

In FIG. 1 shows the altitude aerostatodinamicheskoy power plant with a slotted aerofoil of an aircraft carrier, made in the form of cargo "kite" ring shape.

In FIG. 2 shows a diagram of wind farm very high power in a docked aircraft to each other with an electrical power center on the halyard attached to the kite, made for radio or television program about the state of wind farm with an autonomous device that provides power center both static and dynamic components of the lift force.

The device according to the invention operates as follows. Altitude aerostatodinamicheskaya power plant includes an aircraft in the form of cargo kite slit-type annular wing 1, consisting, for example, the two carriers aerodynamic elements 2.3, with the curvature along the span, and can have different values ​​of the chord along the span, and the minimum value of the bottom chord part, with the aerodynamic elements 2, 3 combined in the horizontal plane. For the trailing edge of the aerodynamic elements 2, 3 wind turbines are 4, 5, 6, a drive which is the incident wind flow. In the horizontal wind turbines are an additional seven to ring a wing, and left along the flow direction of the wind turbine has a clockwise rotation, and right along the flow direction of the wind turbine has a counterclockwise rotation to ensure that the deviation of the air jets down the current, preventing overflow of the zone of high pressure area of ​​low pressure in the flow around an airfoil 3.

Ring a wing can be made an integral part of the ring-shaped, arranged one after another in the longitudinal direction. 4.5 Wind turbines located in a ring and are shifted relative to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft toward the high pressure generated in the bearing surfaces of the flow around a circular wing of the oncoming air stream, and wind turbine 6 is located on the external sling in a downward direction to the oncoming wind flow over a ring , and the external suspension is made as hoses 8, forming a truss design when filling out their working fluid under pressure.

Wind turbines 4, 5, 6, 7 contain a working machine, for example, in the form of a centrifugal compressor, the multiplier and blade propeller-driven wind loads, mechanically connected to each other, as well as controls. Operating the machine is installed in an aircraft and its output is connected with the energy transfer device 9 on the ground with energomashinoy 10, performed in a sequence established by the turbo-generators and power converters, secure network, such as electrolysis of water, whose output is connected to a drive 11 in the form of receiver for hydrogen, and energy consumers 12 through regulators. The receiver is also coupled to the fuel tanks of the aircraft, adding to their hydrogen gas.

Fuel tank communicated via the fuel supply to the propulsion system for the takeoff and landing, which at the height of breaking through the clutch momentarily turned to increase capacity in the development of additional energy consumption of the working fluid.

In the annular wing 1, channels 13, forming a slotted airfoil, with the longitudinal axis of the annular wing has a curvature in the vertical plane. On an aircraft operating the machine in the form of a compressor connected to the corresponding multiplier of wind turbines and flow of the compressor communicated with each other so that the input of each compressor in communication with the subsequent release of the previous compressor, the compressor and the output of the last reported using the device 9 transferring energy from an aircraft at the ground with the cavity input power machine. Device 9 is satisfied in the form of multi-pressure hose, consisting of a thin-walled metal tube wrapped on the outer surface of the composite material. The sleeve 9 is fixed on a rotating drum with a radius of the mount, providing acceptable strain pressure hoses in a state of winding on a drum.

In an aircraft mounted suction hose, the entrance of which is placed in the mine, which is extracted from the flammable explosive gas, and the output of the suction hose is connected to the fuel system in a propulsion system for future admission to post-combustion gas compression in the jet drive turbine blades 7.

On the outer surface of the annular wing 1 may be placed with the docking bracket elements 14 by means of which may join other aircraft.

To ensure the aircraft electrical power on the outer surface it can be placed 15 film converters of solar energy. Electrical output transducers as reported to the authorities of the aircraft, and with energy consumers. As the last aircraft to be placed equipment (transceiver) TV translator, which can optionally be mounted on the external load 16 with the antenna fixed on it 17. Last posted on more aerostatodinamicheskoy platform component of the aerodynamic lift force that makes blade propeller 18, and the Aeronautical component of the lift device 19 generates, on the surface of which there are 20 additional film converters of solar energy, and the floating platform is adjustable in height, which on the flying an additional device placed the device in the form of a drum for winding tether. 21 Regulators have the ability to change the position of one part of a composite aircraft with respect to another, changing the radius of curvature of the longitudinal axis.

Operation altitude aerostatodinamicheskoy power plant is as follows.

Component of the aerostatic lift makes it possible to tear off an aircraft from the ground, spins a drum, increasing the length of discharge hose 9. Launch propulsion system, based on the wind turbine 7. In the presence of excess traction is climbing. On reaching a given height velocity air pressure ensures the implementation of the aerodynamic lift force component of the bearing surface of the aircraft in addition to an aerostatic component.

Under the influence of the pressure of the air flow is provided by the balance of the aircraft under the influence of three forces, the efforts of the aerodynamic effects on the profile (magnitude of lift and drag forces), the mass forces and the tension force of the hoses 9. Wind flow are rotated by wind turbine blade propellers, which is low speed. Wind turbine rotates the wheel of a centrifugal pump, increasing the speed by connecting them with each other through the multiplier, and the circumferential velocity increases and, consequently, the pressure, whose value in the diffuser part is converted into pressure. Flow of all compressors looped so that the entrance of each subsequent compressor is connected to the output of the previous compressor, thus increasing the compression of air. Thus, wind dynamic pressure as the value of distributed energy is converted to a low density of energy of compressed air, that is, the energy of high density. Compressed air flows through the hoses 9 to the input power machine, which is located on the ground, since its weight is the bulk mass of the wind energy plant, with the motion of the compressed air from the exit of the working machine to the input energy machine under the influence of the force field increases the degree of compression . The energy of the compressed air on the ground or converted into electrical energy to the turbogenerator with a subsequent transfer of the consumer, either through protecting the network from overload in the form of electrolysis of water is converted into energy gazofitsirovannogo hydrogen and sent to a storage device in the form of high-pressure receiver, followed by transfer to the consumer, or the mechanical energy of rotation of the tool, for example, the drilling rig, or in any other species, such as the magnitude of the torque drive marine vessel propeller.

High-altitude aircraft 1 can be positioned over the shaft with explosive gas and the suction hose to ensure delivery of this gas in the fuel supply system and then use it after the post-combustion as the working fluid in the compression paddle propulsion jet drive wind turbines, increasing the capacity of the latter.

To increase the power of the wind farm is run by a kite, which connect with the elements connected to the aircraft at altitude. To ensure the aircraft electrical power and controls film solar energy converters 15 convert it into electricity, which comes as regulators and the equipment (two-way radio to television translator) to monitor and transmit information about the state of the aircraft at an altitude of . For a better review and monitoring provide the location of the equipment, receiving and transmitting antenna 17 for additional aerostatodinamicheskoy platform component of the aerodynamic lifting force is provided by propeller blade 18 with a jet drive, a component of the aerostatic lift is provided by the device 19, which run to a higher altitude than the aircraft. Using a large value of the surface structures, components for aerostatic lift is placed on the surface of the film an additional 20 solar energy converters, which supply electric power equipment. As a result of monitoring the work of wind farm decision about the possibility of repair. For this electrical signal is fed to the uncoupling of aircraft components, one of which begin planting for the repair and re-dock the other, forming a single floating platform. For the implementation of the landing of the aircraft produced in the reverse take-off.

The present invention can be used in wind power to generate energy from unconventional sources in quantities of industrial importance, as well as to create a means of providing electrical energy away from the individual infrastructure projects. The location of wind turbines at high altitude makes them environmentally friendly, eliminating the harmful effects of infrasonic waves on living organisms.

The present invention has a practical significance. It can be used to clear mines from the explosive mine gas to drive the tool in the exploration parties on drilling rigs with high Efficiency when used as the working fluid compressed air to drive the screw vessel with compressed air supply for the complex and / or the energy of compressed air and / or electrical energy offshore on the shelf.The use of air platforms for observation and transmission of information not only about the state of air platforms, but also the environment in the form of information about fires, radio and television relay stations with a reduced influence of the emissivity of the apparatus of living organisms.
