As part of Thunderbird's goal to build a scale model of the PowerStack for wind tunnel testing, the Company has the following to report with respect to our ongoing Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analytical programming work with Siemens (formerly CD-adapco, acquired by Siemens last year for $970 million).
PowerStack inventor Richard Sutz stated: "The object of the CFD analyses is to ensure that before we build a three dimensional scale model, we have determined, as technologically feasible, and economically viable, the range of structural characteristics needed to optimize wind turbine performance. To further this end, we have recently begun conversations regarding various construction and manufacturing needs."

Thunderbird Power Corp announced today that it has completed the first phase in optimizing its ultra-efficient PowerStack wind turbine utilizing Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).
CFD is utilized to fine-tune the angles, dimensions and weight of the turbine for optimum efficiency. The Company contracted CD-adapco, a Siemens company, to provide deliverables to Thunderbird Power Corp. Those deliverables have been received analyzed, interpreted and incorporated into design refinements. The Company has already started a subsequent phase of CFD and plans to have all phases completed early 2017.
