My idea is a big cylinder/tunnel that has a certain length and it would be at least twice as long that of its diameter, and...
-This tunnel's inside shall be of lower air pressure than outside of itself. This will be because the air outside, in an attempt to equalize pressure, shall flow through the tunnel. I try to recall how the Ontario Science Centre's sound tunnel works; alas, I cannot, so I may not also say with certainty this shall work.
(Even now however, I am starting to see complications. Also, as a note, I came up with this low-pressure tunnel thing after oddly thinking about the Ontario Science Centre's "sound tunnel," where you could here different tones/pitches depending on where you were inside the tunnel.)
-On the inside of the tunnel, the face of it shall be lined with many relatively small wind turbines (or Windbelts, if they come through with it). Thus, when the air rushes in to try to equalize pressure, they shall trigger the wind turbines.
(The problem here is: will the tunnel be able to always maintain a low air pressure inside of itself? If so, how? And if it cannot, then scrap the "tunnel" part of this idea, and just say "inside a naturally formed low pressure area," or whatever. Even if it does manage to always maintain low air pressure, does that mean the air outside cannot flow through? If it cannot, then the purpose of this low-pressure tunnel will be negated.)
-On the outside face of this cylinder/tunnel, photovoltaic cells shall be placed strategically on it so as to gather energy from the Sun's various forms of emitted wavelengths (I say this simply to encompass the idea that if a cell could absorb UV rays, then by all means, do it!). Thus, the inside and outside of the low-pressure tunnel shall generate electricity.
(The "solar panels on the outside" part seems to me to be able to work fine. This part is specifically so that I can increase energy generated per square [CM, inch, you name it] without forcing the tube/cylinder to take up more space. So, this part presents the "compact" argument, if not only in the form of energy per [area].)
-The tunnel itself, if it were to be unwrapped into a rectangular prism, could have a height that allow its wiring to flow through its inside, rendering the wiring itself mostly immune to the effects of nature.
(This, of course, is just an extra point. It would also probably be very hard to do. And even if it weren't, it would be a waste. Simply scrap this I suppose.)
Well, there are the points to my idea of a compact energy generator that generates purely reuseable energy.
What do you think of it? Will it work? How would it work (since I'm still somewhat mystified about the low-pressure part)?
There you go. Thanks for reading to the very end.
