ABSTRACT:
A turbine generator system, having: a rotatable base; and a plurality of rotor vanes extending from the rotatable base, wherein each of the rotor vanes have helical tapered inner and outer surfaces, and wherein each of the rotor vanes is curved to catch flow perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the rotatable base and to direct the flow into a vortical flow between the inner surfaces of the rotor vanes.
