Abstract

An improved reaction turbine capable of rotation in one direction under reversible fluid flow using airfoil shaped radial blade (20) in conjunction with airfoil shaped helical blades (18) to convert a portion of the energy from fluid flowing in an axial direction into rotational energy, thus increasing efficiency of the turbine. The conversion of axial flow into rotational energy allows the helical blades of the turbine to have a higher twist angle and the turbine itself to have a smaller length to diameter ratio, thus allowing the turbine to be more compact without compromising efficiency.
