ABSTRACT:
In a power transmission plant having pressure surfaces for utilizing the natural flow gradient of water and wind quantities, a plurality of identical parallel conduits are provided which are open at the upper end and each have a rectangular cross-section, wherein two rectangular pressure plates--acting as drive members--are disposed in each conduit so as to be displaceable in a straight line in the direction of flow, said pressure plates being connected to a main shaft and extending in cross-sectional planes of the conduit. Such a plant permits the kinetic energy of turbulent flows to be used for harnessing power, whereby in each conduit a pressure plate, which is displaced in the lower portion of the cross-section by the fluid flow, drives the main shaft, while the other pressure plate moves back into its starting position in the upper portion of the cross-section of the conduit in order to then pass into the lower portion and into the flow.
