Title: Savonius rotor blade construction particularly for a three bladed savonius rotor
Inventor: VANDERHYE ROBERT A
IPC: F03D3/06
Filed: 2006-01-09
Abstract: A Savonius vertical axis wind turbine rotor, that is effective yet relatively easy to manufacture, includes a number of spokes, vanes, and fasteners. Each spoke has a hub having a central opening, three at least partially arcuate ribs extending radially outwardly from the hub with inner (concave) and outer (convex) surfaces, and a number of channels defined in at least one of the inner and outer surfaces. The vanes are of sheet material generally conforming to an inner or outer surface of a rib and have openings aligned with the channels.  First fasteners pass through the openings and cooperate with second fasteners provided in the channels. Each spoke is desirably in three substantially identical pieces, each piece comprising a hub segment and a generally radial rib. Two of the spoke pieces may be joined by a bridging piece, and two of the pieces joined by a clamping mechanism which draws the pieces toward each other to reduce the size of the central opening to clamp onto a shaft in the central opening.  Each rib has a free end opposite the hub, and desirably a strut or bar extending between a central portion of the rib and a portion adjacent the free which increases the rib strength. A rigid spoke piece per se, as described above, is also provided. Still further there is a 2 or 3 blade Savonius rotor with the blades having generally convex and concave surfaces (or a helical rotor), a generator or other driven element, and a drive connecting the generator to the rotor. The drive automatically increases the effective gear ratio between the generator and rotor as the speed of rotation of the rotor increases.

Title: System and method for unloading angular momentum from a spacecraft momentum wheel stabilization system
Inventor: HOLLAND JOHN B
IPC: B64C15/02
Filed: 2006-05-08
Abstract: A system and method for determining an orientation of a thruster used in unloading angular momentum from a spacecraft. The system and method use only one thruster in the unloading operation. The system and method allow for user flexibility in choosing maneuver duration to complement on-board maneuver plans or to avoid possible conflicts with operations limitations. When used with XIPS thrusters, the required thruster bum time for a single thruster unloading operation is greatly reduced with respect to known two-XIPS-thruster angular momentum unloading operations. A graphical user interface can be used by a satellite operator to determine the specifics of the angular momentum unloading operation.
