Abstract

A miniature hydro-power generation system may produce electric power from a flow of liquid. The miniature hydro-power generation system may include a housing that includes a plurality of paddles positioned to extend outwardly from an outer surface of the housing. The system may also include a nozzle and a centering rod extending through the housing. The housing may rotate around the centering rod when a stream of liquid from the nozzle is directed at the paddles. A generator that includes a rotor and a stator may be positioned within a cavity of the housing. The rotor may be coupled with the housing and the stator may be coupled with the centering rod. The rotor may rotate around the stator at high RPM to generate electric power when the housing rotates. The electric power may supply a load and / or may be stored in an energy storage device.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to power generation, and more particularly to hydroelectric power generation with small hydroelectric power generation systems. Background technique [0002] Hydropower is known, in which kinetic energy is extracted from flowing pressurized water and used to turn an electrical generator to generate electrical power. In addition, it is known to use pressurized fluids such as gas, steam, etc. to rotate electrical generators. For large-scale hydroelectric power, which operates from large-scale water sources such as rivers or dams, millions of gallons of flowing water can be used to generate tens of thousands of megawatts of electrical energy. Thus, converting kinetic energy in flowing water to electrical energy may involve significant inefficiencies and may not provide economical and acceptable levels of performance. [0003] As the size of hydroelectric generating equipment becomes smaller, the amount of electric...
