Its form gives reference to the large horns that were used throughout history to call across long distances, but it also serves an important utility. By reducing the cone diameter from the mouth, the speed of the wind increases towards the narrower end of the horn\u2014an application of the compact acceleration turbine lens that makes use of the venture effect.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/landartgenerator.org\/blagi\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/07\/BlowingHorn2.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"BlowingHorn\" width=\"500\" height=\"348\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4170\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Inside of Blowing Horn there are a series of wind rotors with a single drive shaft\u2014a multi-rotor wind turbine invented by Doug Selsam.
