An improved wind driven turbine generator including turbine blades disposed in a turbine housing and mounted on a rotatably mounted turbine shaft wherein said turbine housing defines an air inlet opening and an air discharge opening whereby air passing from said inlet opening to said discharge opening impinges on said turbine blades causing said shaft to rotate, the improvement comprising: a low pressure chamber disposed to receive air from the discharge opening of said turbine housing, said low pressure chamber defining a plurality of discharge ports; and an airfoil mounted adjacent to at least one of said discharge ports where the longer air path of said airfoil is closest to said port whereby wind passing around said airfoil reduces the pressure at said port.
