  2. Water wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_wheel

    A water wheel is a machine for converting the kinetic energy of flowing or falling water into useful forms of power, often in a watermill. A water wheel consists of a large wheel (usually constructed from wood or metal), with numerous blades or buckets attached to the outer rim forming the drive mechanism. Water wheels were still in commercial ...

  3. Water turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_turbine

    The main difference between early water turbines and water wheels is a swirl component of the water which passes energy to a spinning rotor. This additional component of motion allowed the turbine to be smaller than a water wheel of the same power. They could process more water by spinning faster and could harness much greater heads.

  4. Pelton wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelton_wheel

    Old Pelton wheel from Walchensee Hydroelectric Power Station, Germany. The Pelton wheel or Pelton Turbine is an impulse-type water turbine invented by American inventor Lester Allan Pelton in the 1870s. [1] [2] The Pelton wheel extracts energy from the impulse of moving water, as opposed to water's dead weight like the traditional overshot ...

  5. Pico hydro - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pico_hydro

    A pico hydro system made by the Sustainable Vision project from Baylor University [1]. Pico hydro is a term used for hydroelectric power generation of under 5 kW. These generators have proven to be useful in small, remote communities that require only a small amount of electricity – for example, to power one or two fluorescent light bulbs and a TV or radio in 50 or so homes. [2]

  6. 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.

  7. Gravitation water vortex power plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitation_water_vortex...

    A schematic presentation of a gravitation water vortex power plant, showing the turbine in yellow. The gravitation water vortex power plant is a type of micro hydro vortex turbine system which converts energy in a moving fluid to rotational energy using a low hydraulic head of 0.7–3 metres (2 ft 4 in – 9 ft 10 in). This technology is based ...
