ABSTRACT:
A fluid mill having a tandem set of vanes is mounted within a vehicle and subject to the air stream during forward motion of the vehicle. Rotation of the sets of vanes in response to the force of the air stream drives an electrical generator which supplies charging current to a bank of batteries. Electrical power available from the bank of batteries is harnessed to energize one or more electric motor driven wheels of the vehicle. During deceleration of the vehicle, the wheel mounted electric motors act as electric generators and provide further charging current for the bank of batteries.
