ABSTRACT:
A method of and apparatus for increasing the power output of an impeller which is mounted in a stream of free flowing fluid, such as water or air. A portion of the free flowing fluid is received by the impeller and some of the portion leaves the impeller and is caused re-enter the free stream at an angle of intersection of not less than 35.degree. but less than 75.degree.. When designed for operation under water, buoyancy chambers are sized and positioned to negate gravitational stresses and distortions when submerged to thereby reduce cost and improve performance.
