There are many different ways in which devices to convert the kinetic energy contained in an air stream into mechanical work can be realised and the most bizarre concepts have been proposed [1]. Museums and patent offices are filled to the rafters with more or less promising inventions of this type. In most cases, however, the practical applicability of these “wind power plants” falls far behind the inventors’ expectations.
