Abstract
The invention relates to a self-contained electrical generation system (EGS).
The power supply system incorporates a flywheel (with protrusions) being driven by high speed fluid. The flywheel rotor and a DC generator or AC alternator, are connected on a common shaft. The speed of the fluid is maintained by a pump which is operated by a variable speed motor driven by a portion of the electrical current from the DC
generator or AC alternator. Excess electrical energy is used for other purposes.

Description
Electrical Generation System (EGS) Description The Electrical Generation System (EGS) pertains to the mechanical and electrical fields.
The Electrical Generation System as illustrated in exploded view on Figure 1 consists of a flywheel (1) and an AC Alternator of DC Generator (2) mounted on a common shaft (3). Bearings (4) allow the shaft to rotate on the support structure or structures (not shown).
The flywheel has protrusions (14) mounted on its circumference. A pump (5) is driven by a variable speed motor (6), or a motor with a variable speed drive, directs a stream of high velocity fluid, such as water, hydraulic oil or other suitable fluid, onto the protrusions through a nozzle (7). A fluid reservoir (8) mounted below the flywheel collects the fluid, which flows to it via gravity, for re-use by the pump.
A male electrical receptacle (13) allows an external source of electrical energy to be used for start up purposes. Once the flywheel is rotating at the designed operating revolutions per minute (RPM) of the Alternator or Generator, the velocity of the fluid is set to maintain a constant RPM of the flywheel using the electrical flow regulator (9) and the machine is then switched using a switch (10) to source the electricity driving the motor from the Alternator or Generator. A voltage regulator (11) controls the voltage coming from the Alternator or Generator. A female electrical receptacle or receptacles (12) allows the portion of the electrical energy not required by the pump to be used for other purposes.
The machine is enclosed for fluid retention and safety (not shown).
Sequence Listing is as follows:
1. Flywheel 2. AC Alternator or DC Generator 3. Common Shaft 4. Bearings 5. Pump 6. Motor 7. Nozzle 8. Fluid Reservoir 9. Motor Speed Control 10. Switch 11. Voltage Regulator 12. Female Electrical Receptacle 13. Male Electrical Receptacle 14. Protrusions on Flywheel

Claims (4)
1. The unique innovation inherent in this electrical generation system is the use of a portion of the electrical energy created when it is running to maintain its' own operation. The remaining unused portion of electrical energy is available for other uses.
2. An external source of energy is used to bring the flywheel up to the design operating RPM of the machine. Thereafter, the system is switched to source the power to the pump from the Alternator or Generator within the machine.
3. The amount of energy required to maintain the RPM of the flywheel is that which offsets the energy losses within the machine itself and is, therefore, dependant on the quality of the bearings and other components of the machine. The losses would be further reduced if the flywheel enclosure is in a state of vacuum.
Overall process control is also not shown as it is not inherent to the unique nature of the innovation. The design of the protrusions of the flywheel (ie, shape, spacing, etc.) is to be optimized to maximize the transfer of energy from the high velocity fluid to the flywheel.

4. The Electrical Generation System is a unique combination of already existing components. The uniqueness is how they are arranged to serve a new purpose.
