TURBINE COMPRISING AT LEAST TWO HOLLOW 3D WHEELS NESTED INSIDE ONE ANOTHER

摘要

Firstly, the turbines direct the fluid tangentially through channels provided around a stationary hollow wheel and the jets are received in buckets in a rotating wheel surrounding the stationary wheel, operating on the Pelton wheel principle. This novel method can be used to construct turbine assemblies that can recover energy from moving fluids, like wind turbines and marine turbines, using a minimum capture surface and obtaining a maximum yield.

主权项

1. A turbine including at least two hollow 3D wheels nested inside one another, characterized on the one hand in that a stationary hollow wheel (A) is open at the front to the entry of the fluid at its largest diameter and is made up of curved successive circular washers (B), the inner diameter of each of which decreases from the front toward the center and the inner edge of each of which is oriented toward the front, and are interlaced by blades that are preferably wound in a spiral (C) that go from the front toward the center and form, with the washers, channels oriented tangentially toward the periphery of the wheel, and on the other hand at least one rotating wheel (D) that surrounds the stationary wheel and is made up of blades preferably wound in a spiral that go from the large diameter toward the center and are curved in the form of hollow buckets, one of the spouts of which is oriented tangentially (E) to the inside of that wheel and said bucket blades are interlaced with circular washers (F) that go from the inside toward the outside and partition the buckets, and the inner edges of said washers are at best in continuity with the washers of the stationary wheel (G).
