The picture is of a pneumatically synergetic home. The best method to conserve resources is to utilize free energy sources whenever possible.   This home is designed like the wing of a plane. The support tubes are rotated on a helix to form a nozzle shape. The air traveling over the top has to go farther than the air flowing below, accelerating its speed. The fins on the roof direct the wind toward the hole through the center and accelerate it more. Due to the Bernoulli principle, the faster moving air on top flows at a reduced pressure. The air below is sucked through the nozzle driving a turbine blade fixed in its narrowest portion. The propeller drives a generator which produces electric power to run the house or to feed back to the utility.

This is one of many ways we can tap into environmentally compatible energy sources. The home could also tap into other energy sources such as photo-electric cells, temperature differential engines and heat accumulation devices.

The advantage of this unique design lies in the wind speed required to operate the generator. Average wind velocity in many areas is 5 mph. Most turbines require at least 2 1/2 mph of wind to start producing electricity. Twenty five percent of the potential energy is lost. With a pneumatically synergetic design, the threshold of generation can easily drop below one mile per hour. Screens can protect wildlife while the smaller turbine blades would conduct much of the noise upward. Sound insulated cowling and a remote generator would also reduce noise levels.
