The invention relates to a wind power station ( 1 ) for energy generation with an axial-flow, rotating, vortex-generating wind concentrator ( 2 ) pivot-mounted on a shaft ( 3 ), covered by a ring-shaped outer jacket ( 4 ) which on its outside features flow channels distributed over 360° and which is equipped concentrator blades ( 7 ) in a circular arrangement between the shaft ( 3 ) and the ring-shaped outer jacket ( 4 ). To create favourable conditions, it is proposed to include sawtooth-shaped, curved edge-vortex-generating guide profiles ( 5 ) producing a downstream vortex coil across the entire cross-section of the ring-shaped outer jacket ( 4 ). |
