Pearson5 – P51
The Portable Power Generation Unit (Pearson5) has a published United States Patent application (no. 20120200091) from the from the US Patent and Trademark Office, an agency of the US Department of Commerce for a pending patent.
The system allows for a combination of water passing over a Pelton wheel and super-heated steam directed to a steam turbine to control a common shaft engaging an electrical generator. The system is contained within a common housing and is portable for delivery to the most remote locations.
The system utilises a twin cylinder concept to simulate the delivery of water to a water turbine. This concept has not previously been used in any form of hydro power generation, and is the only system that uses re-circulation of the water, and does not need to discharge the water at the end of its operating cycle.
