How It Works
The Gravitational Water Vortex Power Plant is a low-head micro-hydro system. Water enters a round basin tangentially, creating a powerful vortex that drives a turbine. This technology is incredibly efficient and eco-friendly.
Key Benefits
-
Fish Friendly
Fish can pass through the turbine safely both upstream and downstream.
-
Water Aeration
The vortex naturally aerates the water, improving quality for downstream ecosystems.
-
Low Maintenance
Self-cleaning design means debris passes through without clogging.
Requirements
- Head (Drop) 0.7m - 3.0m
- Flow Rate 0.5 - 10 m³/s
- Output 5kW - 100kW
- Efficiency Up to 85%
