Abstract

A hydroelectric energy harvesting system comprises a hydropower turbine including a housing having a fluid intake fitting and a fluid output fitting disposed thereon, a plurality of blades circumferentially arranged about a disc and adapted to rotate within the housing, and a gear train rotatably engaged with the disc, and adapted to multiply the rotation of the hydropower turbine. A mechanical flywheel is rotatably coupled to the gear train output and adapted to store kinetic energy. An electromagnetic clutch is coupled to the mechanical flywheel for selectively transferring rotational motion from the flywheel to a motor generator that is coupled thereto. The system is configured for in-line installation into a pressurized fluid system, such that dispensing fluid from the system causes fluid to flow under pressure through the turbine and rotate the blades. The system multiples and transfers this rotation to the motor generator to generate electricity for harvesting.
