V SQUARED WIND, INC. — Department of Defense SBIR Phase I: The objective of the proposed work is to demonstrate the feasibility of V Squared Wind&quo

Description

The objective of the proposed work is to demonstrate the feasibility of V Squared Wind"s proprietary modular, ducted wind turbine technology to best meet the specifications for a rugged, redeployable wind energy system for military base camp applications. V Squared suggests a quickly deployable, low-profile, high energy density design concept with significantly lower cost and weight than required while meeting or exceeding all other performance attributes. Such a system would save significant energy costs and eliminate the majority of the fuel logistics burden for base encampments. The feasibility of the design concept will be demonstrated in the proposed effort through: -Field testing of a full scale, single module to establish power generation characteristics -Mechanical systems and electrical systems engineering design and costing studies focused on areas of greatest application value The program, with its full scale demonstration testing of a complete wind acceleration module, will provide a strong basis for rapid transition to full system development and field demonstration in Phase II.
