  • Transverse-axis turbine with twisted foils
    Patent number: 8602718
    Abstract: A turbine, suitable for use as a water or wind turbine, for generating rotary motion from fluid flow wherein the axis of rotation of the turbine is transverse to the direction of flow. The turbine has two foils, which may meet at the axis of rotation, and the turbine is helical and tapered. The turbine has a quasi-conical base. The non-mount end of the turbine is preferably tilted downstream with the turbine axis of rotation in the range of about 5° to 15° from perpendicular to the flow direction.
