Abstract:
A gravitational vortex variable flow energy system (GVvFES) is disclosed. An example embodiment includes: a turbine basin having an inlet portion and an outlet portion, the turbine basin having a hybrid conical shape; a generator installed adjacent to the turbine basin; a turbine blade hub having turbine blades attached thereto, the turbine blade hub being coupled to the generator with a turbine blade axle, the turbine blade hub being configured to achieve a variable and configurable height relative to a top of the turbine basin; and a diffuser installed beneath the outlet portion of the turbine basin, the diffuser being configured to achieve a variable and configurable height relative to a bottom of the turbine basin. An example embodiment also includes linkage to vary an angle or pitch of the turbine blades.
