Cribbing from jet aircraft, Polytechnic Institute of New York engineers are experimenting with a delta-shaped airfoil used in conjunction with standard windmill rotors. Pointing into the wind, the triangular whig amplifies the wind's power at least fivefold; the wind is focused into whirling streams that strike the rotors. Other teams at General Electric and at Connecticut's Kaman Corp., a helicopter manufacturer, are considering blades up to 100 ft. long. If these behemoths can be made strong...
