A Savonius rotor uses flexible blade portions that retract and deploy under fluid flow to optimize torque transmission.
A valve plate features a cooling concave portion that channels operating oil to dissipate frictional heat from sliding surfaces.
A collapsible vertical axis turbine uses magnetic levitation to reduce mechanical friction in rotating components.
Radial turbine design captures momentum vector delta via perpendicular flow orientation, resolving low-speed efficiency losses in axial systems.
A segmented pump housing cools the stator assembly via working medium flow while an isolating member prevents fluid contact with the electronic control board.
A turbine rotor assembly uses complementary blade profiles to maximize thrust from lift forces.
A swash plate support attachment structure uses a pin member and spring force to constrain axial displacement and rotation within a hydraulic pump casing.
Flow deflectors redirect radial airflow into tangential force, increasing torque without lengthening blades.
Forward deflectors induce vorticized flow to offset power losses from wildlife excluder blockage in hydro-turbines.
Magnetic confinement creates stable liquid tubes for mixing, avoiding ion diffusion and fouling in microfluidic devices.
