Abstract

The scheme comprises 2 turbine and generator located in 2 tunnel formed in a land mass beneath the sea. In another scheme (figure 2) turbine driven generators utilize the energy flowing from a high tide to low tide through tunnels formed in a land mass. Lock doors may be actuated by compressed air. <IMAGE>

Description

PANEL A Undersea Hydro Electric Scheme This idea relates to an energy source from the sea and or ocean.
This system once installed will give virtually a free source of energy in the form of electricity after installation and maintenance costs.
Figure 1. Shows a cross sectional diagram of a hydro electric turbine driven alternator under the sea with lodge tunnel and lodge moles for electric driven stage pumps.
Figure 2. shows a cross section of landmass with cross driven tunnels from high tide to low tide and vice versa with compressed air retained turbine driven generators and loch doors.
Figure 3. Shows connection driven tunnel and turbine driven generator.
Figure 4. Shows above after completion.
PANEL B Referring to the drawings as in Figure 1 the construction is under the sea with a head of water turbine and alternator access tunnel from the surface and lodge tunnel from the surface with sequence driven lodge pumps.
As in Figure 2 the method to drive those sequence driven lodge pumps is a high tide to low tide tunnel and another tunnel which picks up high tide to low tide in oposition. Turbine driven generators with compressed air driven loch doors and compressed air endorsed latent retained energy for a twenty four hour pumping cycle.
