Designed with both reliability and performance in mind, HYenergy Wind Turbines feature maintenance free design, high reliability and consistent performance.

A small home wind turbine is a long term investment. Before you purchase a wind turbine, the first factor to consider is if the energy produced by a wind turbine can pay for itself in 10 years or less. In order to achieve this, the wind turbine must be a high quality, reliable, maintenance free wind turbine with excellent performance.
The second factor to consider is installation and ownership cost. Poor reliability, low quality and high maintenance will greatly increase ownership cost and make the wind turbine impossible to pay for itself.
The third factor is environment and safety. A small home wind turbine should be safe for high winds, quiet and have no vibrations to make it residential/home friendly.

HYenergy wind turbines can meet the above requirements and do much more:

Designed and built by an experienced wind turbine technology R&D team that are committed to innovation and quality.
CE certified for "Small Wind Turbine with High Reliability".
ISO certified for "Design, Development and Manufacture of Small Wind Turbines".
Amazingly quiet operation with little or no vibration. Conforming to the IEC 61400-11 wind turbine standard for Noise Measurement
Reliable two-moving-part maintenance free design. No problematic furling.
Fully automatic with blade aerodynamic braking and controller electromagnetic braking.
High efficiency is achieved by matching design of the generator and blades.
Patented Blades with twisted aerodynamic design and high efficiency are made using the latest advanced thermoplastic engineering and precision injection molding technology for highest strength, consistency of quality, performance and durability.
Easy installation, no welding needed. Pole connector provided for standard Schedule 40 2" pipe pole.
Brushless Generator: NO motor brushes in our generator and a maintenance-free design with strong neodymium magnets. Old style generators have motor brushes that require regular maintenance. Brushes are high failure items and need replacements regularly.
The blades are made of high-strength Nylon-fiberglass materials. They are not the hollow fiberglass blades which are dangerous in high wind and need to be replaced in a couple of years.

Improved pole connector for Easy Installation

Fit standard 2" SCH40 steel pipe, no welding needed.

The wind turbine with mechanical furling overspeed control outputs dramatically lower energy in constantly changing wind and high wind conditions, mechanical furling wind turbines have a narrow working wind speed, recommended maximum working wind speed for mechanical furling wind turbines is up to 30 mph. They are not recommended for constantly changing wind speeds or high wind speed more than 30 mph periodically. YOU NEED THE H- series WIND TURBINE FOR HIGH WIND AREA OR AREAS WITH CONSTANTLY CHANGING WIND SPEEDS.

From our customer's feedback, mechanical furling wind turbines work well if the wind speed is mostly constant and from 6.7 mph to 20 mph because the mechanical furling almost always kicks in early and results in low performance for more than 20 mph wind speed.

We want to let the customer know the difference between HYenergy wind turbine and V series and choose the best wind turbine. HYenergy wind turbine is built with the best matching, high efficiency blades and maintenance-free design. Commitment to innovation, long time, advanced R&D and patented technology ensure HYenergy wind turbine to have high efficiency and high energy production.

Old style mechanical furling wind turbines are built with old dated technology and lots of small companies copy the same design over and over without any R&D effort. Our prediction is that mechanical furling based wind turbine will be obsolete in the future because of low efficiency and low quality.

HYenergy wind turbine is designed to provide higher actual energy output in variable wind conditions and high wind conditions, It has maintenance-free design, all major parts are built with stainless steel for long term reliability and patented blades with efficient twisted aerodynamic design are made with Nylon-fiber materials which last much longer than fiber glass blades.

Comparing wind turbine performance using power curve is the most mistake people make. Don't get fooled by the deceiving power curves with high peak power for wind turbines, Instantaneous wind turbine power output (Watt) means NOTHING for wind energy. Accumulated energy production (KWH) is what customers should invest on.

Wind turbine performance should be evaluated by energy production in watt-hours, not peak power, not a single point on the power curve.

The power curve is useful to evaluate performance of wind turbines in high winds, our wind turbine performs well in high wind conditions and produce more energy than most of other wind turbines with similar rated output.

This is the perfect choice if you want to avoid the following problems facing most conventional furling based wind turbines:

1. Low survival wind speed, old style furling based wind turbine can't generate electricity under high wind conditions and needs to be taken down during high wind. Capability of electricity generation from low wind to high wind condition is the advantage of HYenergy wind turbines over old style furling based wind turbines.

2. Low electricity output due to low efficiency blade design, old style blades can't capture the wind energy efficiently, therefore can't convert the wind power to electricity efficiently even though the blades are longer. the key to efficient wind turbine is to have EFFICIENT BLADES MATCHING WITH GENERATOR LOAD.

3. Poor reliability: The furling components, blades and slip ring wear out quickly and have short service life due to low quality materials used and problematic design.

4. High maintenance cost: most conventional wind turbines are not built for long life span like HYenergy wind turbines, parts of old style wind turbines will need maintenance every season. The longer you own them, the higher the ownership cost.

Nylon-Fiber Glass High Efficiency blades is aerodynamically designed to regulate themselves, slowing automatically in high winds.

Improved pole connector fit standard 2" SCH40 steel pipe, no welding needed.

Our wind turbine is made in modern ISO 9001 certified production facilities. Our Factory is ISO 9001 certified for implementation of quality management system for "DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT AND MANUFACTURING OF SMALL WIND TURBINES". ISO certificate ensures wind turbines to have superior quality and consistent performance.

Low noise level, neighborhood friendly: Pole adjacent noise level is < 55dBA, conforming to IEC 61400-11 wind turbine standard for Noise Measurement. Perfect choice for residential and rural, industrial applications.

Hidden cost of old style wind turbines with traditional mechanical furling

Low Efficiency Blades: Even with larger swept area, due to the low production quality and poor aerodynamic design, these old style blades can't capture the power in the wind efficiently. see below table for details.
Poor performance: The furling mechanism is not responsive to the constant changes of wind speed and wind direction. The furling system kicks in either too early or too late to go back to normal operation. This results in poor performance.
High Maintenance cost: The furling components are easy to wear out and break. They need lots of maintenance...therefore they are not a good long term investment.
Heavy Weight: wind turbines with traditional mechanical furling are heavy...therefore they have higher shipping cost, hard to install and maintain.

Comparison of Hybrid Wind Generators with Aerodynamic Braking, Electromagnetic Braking, Slip Ring vs. Old Style Wind Generators with Mechanical Furling
	Hybrid Wind Generators with Aerodynamic Braking, Electromagnetic Braking, Slip Ring	Old Style Wind Generators with Mechanical Furling
Overall	High performance, high efficiency, high reliability and superior workmanship, designed to work from low to high wind speeds. Patented, twisted high efficiency blade and extremely efficient aerodynamics design optimize angle of attack all along blades at different wind speeds and create the highest lift to drag ratio ISO certified for wind turbine production quality, CE certified for meting EU standards. Low noise level, Neighborhood friendly: Pole adjacent noise level is < 55dBA, conforming to IEC 61400-11 wind turbine standard for Noise Measurement. Perfect choice for residential and rural, industrial applications.	Average efficiency, average reliability and average workmanship with deceiving rated output, designed for perfect wind conditions at rated wind speed, much lower output at realistic wind conditions, lower output at low wind speed, stop working at high wind speed. Even with larger swept area, blades with low efficiency and poor aerodynamic design can't capture the power in the wind efficiently. No quality control, NOT ISO certified, noisy.
Wind/Solar Input	Can be used as either wind turbine only or wind/solar hybrid system. Integrated wind and solar power sources to capture the most energy in all conditions. Since solar and wind energy availability differs by locations, seasons and climates, solar and wind energy can be mutually complementary in that solar and wind hybrid systems make full use of wind and solar energy together to generate as much power as possible.	Work with wind only, NO electricity generation when wind speed is too low
Design, Quality, Reliability & durability	Highly reliable, Innovative two moving part design with maintenance-free generator life span. Excellent workmanship, stainless steel parts, high strength aluminum die cast generator housing. It is designed for various working conditions such as severe climate, sand and salt corrosive environments. The generator features class B insulation, IP55 class protection, and is designed with a sufficient cushion of overload to ensure overall wind turbine reliability. Slip ring design and electric braking ensure higher reliability than old style wind turbine with mechanical furling Durable rotor blades are made of mixed nylon and reinforced fiber glass materials using the latest advanced thermoplastic engineering and precision injection molding technology for high strength, flexibility and aerodynamic braking.	Much less reliable three moving part design, furling components wear out quickly and require a lot of maintenance. This would lead to possible mechanical abrasion, cause vibration, malfunction, and failure of the wind turbine and other possible negative results in the long run. Poor reliability as result of no slip ring design, the connection cable from wind generator to controller can be easily twisted and tangled , Tangled wires can be damaged and connections can be lost with potentially disastrous consequences. Old style system with average workmanship, average quality parts may rust in a few years, not designed for rough working conditions such as severe climate, salt corrosive environments. Due to the fact that most installations are in very remote and inaccessible locations, the old style systems make regular maintenance costly and sometimes impractical. Hand made blades using fiber glass material with unavoidably inconsistent performance and quality. Built for amateurs/hobbyists, not for realistic electricity generation
Braking & Efficiency	High efficiency: Abandoned the traditional failure-prone mechanical furling system and solved efficiency, safety and reliability problems facing most small wind turbines. Advanced speed limitation is achieved through electromagnetic speed limitation supplemented by aerodynamic speed limitation by blade deformation. Combination of Electromagnetic braking and aerodynamic braking maximizes energy capture by extending turbine’s operating speed range into higher speed winds and lower speed winds which are missed by the old style wind turbines.	Average efficiency: Braking depends on unreliable, problematic mechanical furling which only works well in an ideal, wind tunnel test environment. Realistically, wind speed and wind direction changes frequently and mechanical furling doesn’t have instantaneous response to actual changes of wind status. The furling system kicks in either too early or too late to go back to normal operation. This results in average efficiency.
Performance at low wind speed	Strong Neodymium magnet PMA, the unique winding and multi pole design reduces the start-up torque of the alternator that assures the it can generate more electricity at low wind speed than other systems.	Generator is not designed to work efficiently at low wind speed
Blade Design & efficiency	Extremely efficient rotor aerodynamics: With patented and optimal twisted blade design, angle of attack is optimized all along blade at different wind speeds and therefore creates the highest lift to drag ratio. Twisted, high efficiency blades are insensitive to wind direction so they work much efficiently in real wind conditions. The twisted blades has very good self-start ability, even at low air velocity and has the capability of smooth running, high torque and high RPM, which makes it suitable for electricity generation. In summary, HYenergy's highly efficient blades means smaller size blades for same or more power. Advanced aerodynamics design to capture maximum wind energy. The blades have exceptional consistency and aerodynamic outline with a mass distribution that ensures the rotors operate with minimal vibration. In high wind speed conditions, patented blades will generate a reverse reluctance torque, so that the blade efficiency falls and the blade rotation speed starts to decline. With the continuing reluctance torque, blade rotation speed is limited to a certain range to prevent damage to the wind turbine blades.	Low efficiency with poor aerodynamics design. Even with larger swept area, due to the low production quality and poor aerodynamic design, these old style low efficiency blades can’t capture the power in the wind efficiently. Blades have higher noise level, blades have no aerodynamic braking feature, blades won't operate at high wind speed.
Blade Material & Quality	Made of mixed nylon and reinforced fiber glass materials using the latest advanced thermoplastic engineering and precision injection molding technology for high strength, flexibility and aerodynamic braking.	Hand made blades using fiber glass material with unavoidably inconsistent performance and quality. Built for amateurs/hobbyists, not for realistic electricity generation
Maintenance	Maintenance-free generator design, maintenance free design has a minimum of moving parts with inherent reliability.	The furling components such as bearings are easy to wear out. lots of maintenance required
Weight	Light Weight, 40 to 60 lbs	Heavy Weight, 150 lbs or more
Installation	Light weight, compact and modular generator design makes installation simple. Straightforward step by step instructions.	Heavy weight and old style design of generator and furling components result in complex and lengthy installation.

Design Features

Advanced over-speed control mechanism vs. old style furling
Problems with old style furling:

Old style furling works well in an ideal, wind tunnel test environment. Realistically, wind speed and wind direction changes frequently and mechanical furling doesn’t have instantaneous response to actual changes of wind status. Especially in bad weather conditions, small wind turbine furling components wear out quickly, therefore, increases maintenance costs and shorten wind turbine service life or causes system failure.
Most of old style furling based wind turbines have three moving parts. It is the moving parts for mechanical over-speed protection that wear out and require a lot of maintenance. Operation of furling based wind turbines would lead to mechanical abrasion, cause vibration, malfunction, and failure of the wind turbine and other devastating results in the long run.

The rule of thumb for a reliable wind turbine is that the fewer the moving parts, the more reliable the wind turbine is.

Windmax Solution:
Windmax H series adopted Innovative over-speed control so it improves the reliability by abandoning the moving parts for mechanical over-speed protection and minimizing the moving parts to only two.

Innovative over-speed control design of the Windmax H series:

Windmax H series speed limitation abandoned the traditional failure-prone mechanical furling system and solved safety and reliability problems facing most small wind turbines. Advanced speed limitation of Windmax H series is achieved through advanced electromagnetic speed limitation supplemented by aerodynamic speed limitation by blade deformation. Electromagnetic braking is used in combination with Aerodynamic braking to reduce the rotational speed of the generator.
Combination of Electromagnetic braking and aerodynamic braking maximizes energy capture by extending Windmax H series turbine’s operating speed range into higher speed winds and lower speed winds which are missed by the old style wind turbines.

1. Electromagnetic speed limitation:
Controller will monitor the wind generator rotation through the wind generator output voltage and frequency, and will timely control wind generator rotation by generating reverse reluctance torque if necessary, according to different wind conditions and battery status. Electromagnetic control features quick response, high reliability and therefore ensures the entire control system to be highly reliable.

2. Blade aerodynamic braking:
In high wind speed conditions, patented blades will generate a reverse reluctance torque, so that the blade efficiency falls and the blade rotation speed starts to decline. With the continuing reluctance torque, blade rotation speed is limited to a certain range to prevent damage to the wind turbine blades.

Higher performance at low wind speed
Problem with small wind turbine system on the market today
The most challenging problem facing small wind turbine systems is that power output is very low or close to nothing under low wind condition. The wind speed in most locations don’t stay at rated wind speed all the time, wind turbine actually operates at wind speed lower than rated wind speed at most of the time. In order to have good overall energy output, it is critical for small wind turbine to output as much as power at low wind speed.

WindMax Solution:
Strong Neodymium magnet PMA, unique winding and multi pole design reduces the start-up torque of the alternator that assures the WINDMAX-H series can generate electricity at low wind speed. WindMax system components such as wind generator and blades are designed to output more electricity at low wind speed than other small wind turbines on the market today. WindMax system’s excellent power output under low wind speed results in greater energy production yield and lowest ownership cost.

Wind-solar hybrid power generation wind turbine system

Problem with single source renewable energy system:
1st Generation single source renewable energy systems such as solar systems or wind turbines don’t use renewable energy efficiently. Wind turbines creates less output during the summer, whereas during the winter the solar panels will produce less output.

Windmax Solution:

Our Windmax hybrid solar-wind turbine integrated wind and solar power sources capture the most energy in all conditions. Since solar and wind energy availability differs by locations, seasons and climates, solar and wind energy can be mutually complementary in that solar and wind hybrid systems make full use of wind and solar energy together to generate as much power as possible compared to a single energy source for power generation. A solar & wind hybrid system is more cost-efficient than wind or solar alone.

Easy-to-install, light weight, compact, reliable and maintenance-free wind turbines, designed for both land-based and marine applications.
Problem with old style wind turbine systems:
Most old style wind turbines are heavy weight with unpredictable reliability, hard to install and require lots of maintenance. Due to the fact that most installations are in very remote and inaccessible locations, the old style systems make regular maintenance costly and sometimes impractical.

Windmax Solution:
Windmax H series maintenance free design has a minimum of moving parts with inherent reliability. Our light weight, compact die-casting aluminum alloy generator design makes installation very easy. Rotor blades built with latest advanced thermoplastic engineering and precision injection molding technology is durable and efficient.

Welcome to Applied Magnets where we sell strong magnets for less. One category of strong magnets that we have in stock is a whole line of ceramic magnets. Our ceramic magnets are high in demand and are highly versatile. These have been used in many an industry and with a high success rate. You can never go wrong with our huge assortment of ceramic magnets. From inducers, electromagnets and transformers magnets have been used in everything. We stock both ceramic blocks and rings for whatever projects you need them for. Browse our site for the most comprehensive selection of ceramic magnets on the web. Look through our picture gallery to find the product you are looking for and we will deliver it to you.

Many materials have unpaired electron spins, and the majority of these materials are paramagnetic. When the spins interact with each other in such a way that the spins align spontaneously, the materials are called ferromagnetic (what is often loosely termed as "magnetic"). Due to the way their regular crystalline atomic structure causes their spins to interact, some metals are (ferro)magnetic when found in their natural states, as ores. These include iron ore (magnetite or lodestone), cobalt and nickel, as well the rare earth metals gadolinium and dysprosium (when at a very low temperature). Such naturally occurring (ferro)magnets were used in the first experiments with magnetism. Technology has since expanded the availability of magnetic materials to include various manmade products, all based, however, on naturally magnetic elements.

Not only do we have a collection of ceramic magnets but we also have a large range of Neodymium Magnets as well. These magnets are very robust in relation to their size. Popular with industries and hobbyists.
Neodymium magnets are used in a wide variety of applications. From hard drives to headphones to loudspeakers these magnets have seen it all.
Ceramic Magnets or ferrite
Ceramic magnets, or ferrite, are made of a sintered composite of powdered iron oxide and barium/strontium carbonate ceramic. Due to the low cost of the materials and manufacturing methods, inexpensive Ceramic magnets (or nonmagnetized ferromagnetic cores, for use in electronic component such as radio antennas, for example) of various shapes can be easily mass produced. The resulting Ceramic magnets are noncorroding, but brittle and must be treated like other ceramics.
Neodymium-iron-boron (NIB)
Neodymium magnets, more formally referred to as neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) magnets, have the highest magnetic field strength, but are inferior to samarium cobalt in resistance to oxidation and temperature. This type of magnet has traditionally been expensive, due to both the cost of raw materials and licensing of the patents involved. This high cost limited their use to applications where such high strengths from a compact magnet are critical. Use of protective surface treatments such as gold, nickel, zinc and tin plating and epoxy resin coating can provide corrosion protection where required. Beginning in the 1980s, NIB magnets have increasingly become less expensive and more popular in other applications such as children's magnetic building toys. Even tiny neodymium magnets are very powerful and have important safety considerations.At Applied Magnets you will get the best possible price on these Neodymium magnets.

Wind Turbine

Wind turbines are a powerful source of renewable energy. 1-3% of the suns energy is converted into wind energy, which can be used through a wind turbine to create electricity. A wind turbine is a machine used to convert kinetic energy from wind into mechanical electricity, there are two types of wind turbine, ones that rotate on a vertical axis, and ones that rotate on a horizontal axis, the horizontal wind turbine are more frequently used. How a wind turbine works is it has usually 3-4 blades, which are shaped aerodynamic to catch the wind and rotate the blades, thus the kinetic energy of the moving blades is used to work a generator, which produces electricity. Most wind turbine machines have some sort of technology to help direct the blades at the oncoming wind, whether that technology is as simple as a minor wind vane, used in the smaller wind turbine machinery, or full out wind and pressure sensitive computer that turns the wind turbine accordingly.
