| 20110070068 | FLUID TURBINE DEVICES AND METHODS RELATED TO FLUID TURBINE DEVICES - Fluid turbine devices and methods related to fluid turbine devices are disclosed herein. One example method includes deflecting a first portion of a fluid flow from a return path of a vertical blade assembly, while permitting a second portion of the fluid flow to enter a drive path of the vertical blade assembly. Another example method related to a fluid flow device includes orienting a shroud relative to a fluid flow to deflect a first portion of a fluid flow from a return path of a vertical blade assembly and to permit a second portion of the fluid flow to enter a drive path of the vertical blade assembly and activating a generator, based on an operating characteristic of the fluid turbine device, to regulate a rotational speed of the vertical blade assembly. | 03-24-2011 |

| 20100260593 | FLUID TURBINE DEVICES AND METHODS RELATED TO FLUID TURBINE DEVICES - Fluid turbine devices and methods related to fluid turbine devices are disclosed herein. One example method includes deflecting a first portion of a fluid flow from a return path of at least a portion of a vertical blade assembly, while permitting a second portion of the fluid flow to enter a drive path of the vertical blade assembly. One example fluid turbine device includes a vertical blade assembly having multiple blades and a shroud rotatable relative to the vertical blade assembly. The shroud includes a leading edge portion for deflecting a first portion of a fluid flow from entering a return path of at least a portion of the vertical blade assembly and a portion defining multiple openings configured to permit fluid from within a compartment defined by the vertical blade assembly to exhaust out of the return path. | 10-14-2010 |
