Abstract
The invention relates to a wind generation means (1) comprising at least one wind generation wall (1′) comprising a plurality of wind generation units (11) provided next to each other along at least a first and a second directions so as to form the at least one wind generation wall (1′), wherein each wind generation unit (11) of said plurality of wind generation units comprises at least two ventilation units (111), each ventilation unit within the wind generation unit being individually controlled, characterized in that each wind generation unit (11) of said plurality of wind generation units comprises at least one control unit adapted to control said ventilation units (111) individually, so as to generate an arbitrary wind profile both in space and in time in an air flow path and so as to vary a generated wind physical property of said each wind generation unit along said at least first and second directions, and in that said plurality of wind generation units (11) are detachably attached to each other so that the size and shape of the said wind generation wall (1′) can be varied.
