Patent attributes
A low-head and high flow water turbine machine comprises a water-guiding base having a top plate, a bottom plate, an accommodating space defined therein, an inlet and an outlet respectively arranged at upstream side and downstream side, and a first and a second lateral plates respectively having a first and a second water-guiding walls that are respectively extending inward toward circumference of the accommodating space, a water turbine arranged in the accommodating space and having multiple blades, and a cylindrical-shaped gate shell passing through the top plate and slidably coupled to circumference of water turbine around upstream side wherein an opening degree is adjusted through sliding the gate shell for adjusting cross-sectional area of stream thereby controlling stream discharge entering to the water turbine, switching off rotation of the water turbine, and adjusting water level at high water level state at upstream side according to the stream discharge requirement.
