<p>A system includes a vertical shaft or housing 108 at least partially submerged in water. A valve 104 allow a regulated amount of water to enter and fall into the housing 108 to drive a water wheel or turbine 106 which drives a generator or mechanical device. Water collects 114 in a reservoir 120 and is driven by pump 506 to drive the water wheel or turbine 106 via a jet. The water may pass through a spiral tubular structure 129, 602 which is said to accelerate and organise the water flow. There may be two or more turbines in parallel or series. The system may include an electronic control system.</p> |
