  • See our earlier file:  /0/Applications
  • See wiki   Kite applications
  • See applications claims in kite patents and discuss each application.  See: KitePatents
  • Discuss each kite application in itself in a dedicated thread at form KiteApplications
  • M3184   tow icebergs
  • Tow large bags of fresh water to need points on earth
  • Lift large iron sphere. Drop the sphere to crush rocks.
  • Water pumping
  • In ocean, have the KS drag a catch net to collect trash.
  • In ocean , have the KS drag a brine-shrimp net for getting survival food.
  • Fly kites to drop gunnery targets.
  • kites as anemometers

  • Pond aeration.   Pump air into pond water.

  • Dry wet clothes:  Instead of using natural gas or electricity to dry washed clothes: Attach the wet clothes pieces to the tethers of a KS. Fly cross-winding for apparent higher wind to dry the clothes faster while reducing the amount of UV damage to the clothes. This obtains higher winds than ground-hugging clotheslines!  Have fun drying washed clothes.   Hiking? Got wet accidentally? Want a quick dry? Fly.
     
  • Want a chilled drink? Have an evaporator bag; place the beverage inside the bag. Wet the bag. Fly the wetted bag aloft. Do some cross-winding. Presto: cold beverage for the picnic.
