Abstract

A fluid driven turbine for the purpose of generating both AC and DC electricity consisting of a Tangential Roller Rotor housed inside a Rotor Chamber thereafter installed into an Aero/Hydro Dynamic Structure or Surface. Said Rotor attached to Generating Motor(s) via a common Axel/Shaft via a Slipping Drag Clutch on that Axial Shaft or not and of which said Motors are housed in a separate but adjoined Motor Housing. A Gearing System with/without Clutch between said Shaft and Motor(s) may be installed or not. The said Rotor extends only partially into a passing fluid current from within its Chamber through the said Aero/Hydro Dynamic Structure or Surface thus capturing energy in its Rotor Vane(s) part(s) and causing spin to all rotational parts in turn causing generation of electricity.
