Title:

Design Sensitivities of Drag Power Kites.

Author(s):
Bauer, Florian; Kennel, Ralph
Abstract:
A drag power kite [1] is a tethered electric aircraft which harvests wind energy by flying in crosswind motions such as figure eights or circles. The kite is like a tip of a rotor blade of a conventional wind turbine. Those blade tips harvest the majority of the energy, because they sweep the largest area and experience the highest (true) airspeed. Similar to the generative braking of the rotor of a conventional wind turbine, the kite brakes generatively, with small onboard wind turbines...     »
