ABSTRACT:
An axial flow energy converter combining a tubular shroud defining a fluid pathway coaxial with the shroud, a rotational energy converter having a rotatable shaft mounted within the fluid pathway coaxial with the shroud, an impeller mounted to the shaft with the impeller having a hub having a face across the fluid pathway and having an edge at the radial perimeter of the hub and having a plurality of blades mounted radially to the edge of the hub and a set of guide vanes disposed axially with respect to the impeller and mounted within the fluid pathway. The hub has at least one face orifice in the face of the hub communicating with at least one edge orifice in the edge of the hub allowing fluid to flow through the hub, providing both axial fluid flow and hub fluid flow through the energy converter.
