Abstract

Floating air rotor system (FARS) is next generationwind turbines with cost efficient and advantageous over the existing ones. FARS is much lighter than air tethered wind turbine which rotates about horizontal axis in response to wind, generating electric power. The electrical power generated is transferred to tether for direct consumption, or to a set of batteries or power grids. Helium gas gives initial lift and sustains FARS at an altitude of best winds. The rotation of the turbine produce a phenomenon called “magenn effect”. This effect sustains the floating property of FARS. Hence due to this, FARS is also called as MARS (magenn air rotor system).
