Hydro Power Stations With Oscillating Cylindrical Working Elements

Wide application of the power stations based on use of renewable sources of energy, and the further working out of such technologies became very actual as a result of :

- Reduction of stocks of fossil energy carriers

- Growth of world power consumption

In the world The great number of various types of wind power stations,

HydroBine

Hydrobine Farm.

Hydroelectric power has been in service for over a century, but its origin, the water wheel, has been around for thousands of years. The ever increasing demand for renewable energies has encouraged engineers to find more ways to extract energy from the environment. One recent development is the Hydro Turbine aka.

Hydrolyseric Triyan Engine

The gradual increase in the rate of use of fossil fuels and natural gases are not only decreasing the underground balance, but also are polluting the nature, eventually depleting the environmental balance. What we need is a source by which we can decrease the pollution level and create an ecofriendly nature.

Increasing 4 Stroke Engine with Water Injection

Synopsis:

Only about 30% of the fuel energy changes to useful work in Internal Combustion Engines (ICE`s). The exhaust exergy of the engine has approximately the same amount as the output work. So the exhaust flow shows great potential of useful work in which could be achieved by improving efficiency and applying new cycles to the engine.

Inflatable-Rotor Windmills

Inflatable-Rotor Windmills

The inflatable-rotor windmill was initially conceived as a combination of the child’s toy pinwheel with an inflated lightweight sphere such as a beach ball. The sphere performs two main functions: as support for the pinwheel's blades or sails, and as a wind augmenter, to divert and accelerate air into the rotor.

Insulated Pulse-Combustion Engine

The insulated pulse-combustion engine is a reciprocating piston engine concept which explores the five pathways of non-productive energy export from internal combustion engines (thermal conduction, exhaust heat, exhaust pressure, exhaust pollution, and mechanical losses) in an effort to improve fuel economy. This concept combines principle attributes of the Diesel engine (unthrottled induction and high compression ratio),

Knocking Down the Expiry Term of Laboratory Chemicals: the No Reagent, No Reaction Technology

A laboratory chemical stays most of its lifetime on a shelf, in a closed container, which is opened when it is necessary to take out part of its contents. Generally, partial removal is carried out by pouring, if the chemical is a liquid or a powder, or by means of a spatula after having tilted the container,

Louvered Full Cut-Off Light Bulb

The Problem: Common residential exterior light fixtures that allow light pollution, light trespass and energy waste. Replacement of such fixtures (especially multiple exterior fixtures) can be prohibitively expensive.

The Solution: A light bulb with louvers designed into the sealed bulb envelope to keep light directed below the horizontal plane to meet modern full cut-off light fixture standards.

Low Head Hydro Power Generation

This is a technology for generating hydro power by extending an enclosed pipeline in to the head waters from a hydro power turbine. This hydro power development is based on the fact that the flow through a closed conduit (pipe) will be greater than the free flow through an open channel.
