| 20130292949 | WIND ENERGY HARNESSING WALL - Technologies are generally described for a wind energy harnessing device. The device may include a tapered hollow tube and an attached curved tube which may be filled with a fluid. A permeable membrane may be inserted into a constricted inner channel of the hollow tube and may be configured to oscillate in response to incoming airflow through the hollow tube. The fluid in the curved tube may be displaced in response to a pressure differential caused by oscillation of the membrane. Conducting coils may be wound around the attached curved tube, and a magnet suspended within the fluid may oscillate with the fluid between the conducting coils, and may generate a magnetic flux which may induce a voltage in the coils. The coils may be connected to an external power grid for converting the induced voltage into usable electrical energy. | 11-07-2013 |
