About this document
Hydro-Electric Spherical Turbine Patent by Kok Wai is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This patent describes an in-pipe hydro-electric power system that uses a spherical turbine placed inside a cylindrical pipe. The spherical turbine has blades curved in an approximately 180 degree arc that rotate transversely to fluid flowing through the pipe. The system captures the energy of fluid flowing in either direction through the pipe to power an attached generator and produce electricity. In one embodiment, a deflector shield placed upstream of the turbine controls the flow of fluid through the tur
