ABSTRACT:
The invention comprises a water wheel having spaced parallel circular side walls supported on bearings which are rotationally mounted in a stationary base, these bearings preferably being the wheels of railroad cars, there being a plurality of generally radially extended paddle elements disposed between the side walls and extending from the periphery thereof, and including an upwardly extended chute connected to an elevated water supply, this chute having a lower end shaped to deflect water generally horizontally and tangentially into the upper portion of the water wheel and against the paddle elements.
