Abstract

PURPOSE:To generate electric power efficiently, by mounting a Daryavaus type turbine on a float and mounting a rudder perpendicular to a rotating shaft of the TTT turbine on a side surface of the float. CONSTITUTION:A Daryavaus type turbine 11 is mounted under a float 8 and a rudder 14 is mounted on a side of the float in a direction perpendicular to a rotating shaft 11a of the Daryavaus type turbine 11. With the arrangement, since the float 8 is directed to a prescribed direction at all times with respect to a tidal current, the DAryavaus type turbine 11 can be rotated in an optimum condition at all times regardless of a direction of the tidal current, whereby power generating efficiency can be improved.

By the way, in the power generating apparatus described above, although the Darius turbine 5 is rotated regardless of the direction of the tidal current as described above, there is a problem in that it is affected by the flow velocity of the tidal current. That is, as shown in Fig. 5, since the power generation device is connected by the chain 7 to the anchor weight sunk on the seabed, when the flow speed of the tidal current increases, the metal body is tilted, and therefore, the Darius blade 5a is connected to the anchor weight sunk in the seabed by the chain 7. Is it no longer perpendicular to the direction? . Therefore, there was a problem in that the rotational speed of the Darius turbine 5 decreased, resulting in a decrease in power generation efficiency.

At the same time, by forming the Darius turbine horizontally to the water surface, even if the float court is tilted due to the tide or current, the surface of the Darius turbine facing the tidal current remains constant, and the rotational speed is not affected at all. This is intended to improve power generation efficiency.
