You don’t have to live near Hoover Dam to tap hydropower. Experts at Belgium’s Turbulent have developed a Vortex turbine that maximizes low-flow water from rivers and canals that also have low ...

The Kaduvetti micro-hydro electric project will have an installed capacity of 20 kilowatt (KW), but the EMC endeavour is mainly aimed at generating awareness about the vortex turbines.

A new bladeless wind-driven generator prototype, called the Vortex, is claimed to produce electricity with very few moving parts, on a very small footprint, and in almost complete silence. It's ...

The model simulates a turbine built in 1926 with an aluminum runner with a diameter of 4.1 meters. The unit’s original draft tube was designed using Kac-Moody geometry.

Vortex Hydro Energy, a spinoff company hoping to commercialize the technology invented and patented at U-M, placed prototypes in the St. Clair River near Dunn Paper in August 2010 and September 2012.

This means that Bernitsas’ team has been able to design a prototype system to work at 2.6 knots, and between 2 and 4 knots. Bernitsas chose to configure his system to work at this speed as it provided ...

An energy startup company called Vortex Bladeless has come up with a wind turbine design that doesn’t incorporate blades and it’s like nothing we’ve ever seen before. The revolutionary unit looks like ...

According to Coherent Market Insights study, The Vortex Turbine Market size is expected to reach US$ 219.8 million by 2030, from US$ 102.6 million in 2023, at a CAGR of 11.5% during the forecast ...

The result is a turbine that’s 50 percent less expensive than a bladed one, nearly silent, and, as one of the turbine’s engineers put it, “looks like asparagus” (sorry, Quixote).

A finite vortex method was developed based on the Kutta condition of pressure difference at the trailing edge of an airfoil aiming at the analysis and prediction of hydrodynamic load and wake field of ...
