2. Tyson turbine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyson_turbine

   Marketed as part of a hydropower system that extracts power from the flow of water, the turbine is mounted below a raft, driving a power system, typically a lift irrigation pump or generator, on top of the raft by belt or gear. [2] [3] [4] The turbine is towed into the middle of a river or stream, where the flow is the fastest, and tied off to ...

3. Water turbine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_turbine

   The runner of the small water turbine. A water turbine is a rotary machine that converts kinetic energy and potential energy of water into mechanical work. Water turbines were developed in the 19th century and were widely used for industrial power prior to electrical grids. Now, they are mostly used for electric power generation.

4. Gorlov helical turbine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gorlov_helical_turbine

   The Gorlov helical turbine (GHT) is a water turbine evolved from the Darrieus turbine design by altering it to have helical blades/foils. Water turbines take kinetic energy and translate it into electricity. It was patented in a series of patents from September 19, 1995 [1] to July 3, 2001 [2] and won 2001 ASME Thomas A. Edison.

5. Steffturbine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steffturbine

   The Steffturbine is driven by the potential energy of the water, it operates like an overshot water wheel. It comprises a conveyor chain equipped with profiled paddles circulating around two wheels. These wheels are arranged so that the flowing water drives the conveyor chain on an inclined plane. [2] Different turbine inclinations are possible.

6. Electric generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

   U.S. NRC image of a modern steam turbine generator (STG). In electricity generation, a generator [1] is a device that converts motion-based power (potential and kinetic energy) or fuel-based power (chemical energy) into electric power for use in an external circuit.

7. Turbo generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo_generator

   The first Hungarian water turbine was designed by the engineers of the Ganz Works in 1866; industrial-scale production with dynamo generators started only in 1883. [2] Engineer Charles Algernon Parsons demonstrated a DC steam-powered turbo generator using a dynamo in 1887, [3] and by 1901 had supplied the first large industrial AC turbo ...

9. Capstone Green Energy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capstone_Green_Energy

   An example of a Capstone-powered hybrid vehicle is the Capstone CMT-380, equipped with a 30 kW gas turbine generator running on diesel that recharges Li-Poly batteries when necessary. The CMT-380 has a proposed range of 80 mi (130 km) on battery alone, but when combined with the microturbine that range is pushed to more than 500 mi (800 km).
