发明名称 Water Gravity Loop Power Plant (WGLPP)
摘要 The WGLPP is a non-fluvial/dam, complete micro Hydroelectric Power Plant that can be an attached/integrated installation, a non-attached installation, or a portable installation (vehicle) that will continuously (24/7) power any residential, commercial, or military building. The WGLPP is driven by a water gravity energy loop (potential energy to kinetic energy to potential energy. . . ), which is clean (zero emissions and zero environmental impact) and renewable energy.

主权项 1. The WGLPP is a non-fluvial/dam, complete micro Hydroelectric Power Plant that can be built attached (integrated) or non-attached to the building(s) it will power. The WGLPP can be mobile or portable by installing/integrating it on a mobile platform (vehicle) that is modified to install all the WGLPP sections. The WGLPP will generate the required electricity to continuously (24/7) power any residential, commercial, or military building (multi-floors building; any industrial plant or factory; any data center building; any farm; any portable building; and any other feasible application). The WGLPP can be integrated with any existing continuous water supply system like water towers that have the required Hydraulic Head with a continuous (24/7) water flow to generate the required electrical power. The WGLPP is driven by a water gravity energy loop that cycles from potential energy to kinetic energy to potential energy . . . . The WGLPP is made of five (5) or more customized clean (zero dioxide emissions and zero environmental impact) and renewable energy conversion sections or modules, which will convert the falling water energy (Hydropower) to mechanical power by the use of extra-wide high performance axial flow (AF) propeller(s) and impeller(s), the mechanical power will drive the required electricity generator and accelerate/pump the water to the next section. The conversion sections or modules and its components are: Hydraulic Head—Section 1: Is the Hydropower source that drives the other sections and it is built from the integration of the required (capacity, shape, size, material . . . ) insulated-heated cone shape bottom water tank that can be attached/integrated or non-attached to building and its wireless monitoring and control system (sensors, controls, supply pipes, overflow vents/pipes, conveyance pipes, filters, drains, shut off valves, one-direction flow control valves, predictive Analytics system, required software programs, visualization and control dashboard, required systems networks . . . ). See FIG. 1. Driving-Generation-Acceleration—Section 2: Hydropower is converted to the mechanical power that drives the electricity generator and also accelerates/moves the water to Section 3. It is built of the integration of the required (capacity, shape, size, material . . . ) insulated-heated conveyance pipes controlled by one-direction flow control check-valves, shut off valves, and drain/vent systems; extra wide high performance AF propeller(s) and its strut-bearing (lubrication-free) mounting assembly and systems; propeller to generator driver-interface power shaft assembly and systems; required electricity generator(s); generator nacelle to enclose (house) the electricity generator(s) and its supply-interface systems with building and its wireless monitoring and control systems (like Section 1). See FIGS. 2 & 3. Acceleration-Driving-Pumping—Section 3: The accelerated water is accelerated/pumped again and the impeller(s) in section 4 are driven. It is made up of the integration of the required (capacity, shape, size, material . . . ) insulated-heated conveyance pipes (wider than section 2) controlled by one-direction flow control check-valves, shut off valves, and drain/vent systems; extra wide high performance AF propeller(s) and its strut-bearings (lubrication-free) mounting assembly and systems; propeller(s) to impeller(s) interconnection flex cable or appropriate interconnection system and assembly to drive impeller(s) in section 4 and its wireless monitoring and control systems (like Section 1). See FIGS. 3 & 4. Suction-Pumping-Return—Section 4: Is the conversion of rotational kinetic energy to the hydrodynamic energy of the fluid flow. It is made up of the integration of the required (capacity, shape, size, material . . . ) insulated-heated conveyance pipes (wider than section 2) controlled by one-direction flow control check-valves, shut off valves, filter, and drain/vent systems; the Impeller(s)-Return port assembly at water tank and its strut-bearings (lubrication-free) mounting assembly (propeller to impeller interconnection flex cable or appropriate interconnection system from Section 3) and systems including additional impeller(s) powered by the electricity generated by the WGLPP and/or, solar energy, or wind power as required and its wireless monitoring and control systems (like Section 1). See FIG. 1. Metal Structure—Section 5: Metal or similar strength structure that integrates and support all the other four (4) or more sections, the structure can be designed and built as part of the building structure were the WGLPP will be installed or as stand alone installation. The Structure will be attached to the appropriate surface or mobile platform (vehicle). The WGLPP energy loop continuous conversion sections and/or components will be customized to increase the WGLPP electricity generation capacity, optimize its performance, and adjust to the requirements of a portable building or vehicle. See FIG. 1. The WGLPP will convert the Hydropower (water power) into mechanical power to: a) Generate electricity by the rotations of the generator shaft that is rotated by the mechanical power generated by the propeller and transmitted by its interconnected power shaft.b) Accelerate and push/pump the water by the use of high performance axial flow (AF) propeller(s).c) Pump/suction the water by the use of high performance impeller(s) to return the water back to the water tank to complete one full loop-cycle and to start a new energy loop-cycle (renewable energy).
