Hoagy,
It is quite interesting, because after I posted this on the awea-wind-home list, I got a thank you letter from people that obviously both built after similar concept and have measurement etc. They tailor make installations with Darrieus modules, but a bit larger, http://www.aerotecture.com. They said that their activities manifested what I said and I might get some material from their follow up measurements on projects. It is not low cost product offerings, but it is anyway verifying the viability of my idea. Hakan At 19:44 07/01/2004, you wrote: >you wrote: > > A typo, thanks!
