- the height of elevation H (fig 1/14, 2/14, 3/14, 4/14, 14/14) that can be obtained is unlimited and will be determined by the height of fall that you decide to create and therefore by the number of turns of the spiral or spirals.
- the invention consists of a vertical tidal turbine allowing a liquid, in the occurrence of water, whether fresh or salt, to move in the opposite direction of Newton's Law of Gravity, and recover the energy produced to transform it into electricity or any other energy, wherever plans are encountered water on the rough surface.
- said tidal turbine makes it possible to raise the water on which it floats using wave energy, to raise this pumped water to the desired height, thus creating a sufficiently high and important waterfall. to be exploitable, and exploited.
- said tidal turbine comprises five main elements
- ballasts being formed of a set of reservoirs of various shapes and volumes that will be joined in a geometric set or not, and large enough in volume to support the hydrolienne without it can take a cottage uncontrollable when the spirals of this will be filled with water from the base to the summit, and that it will undergo swayings changing its center of gravity,
- ballasts may take the form of tanks, tank bottoms, buoys, ship hulls (B "M"), without limitation of shapes and volumes. Ballasts of all types can be built in steel, aluminum, polyester, plastic, and all current or future materials, but also concrete, which will be favored for its cost, longevity, ease of implementation and its ecological side .
- One or more hydroelectric turbines (P) where will arrive the penstocks that will bring water from the reservoir and that will transform the energy of the high water into electrical energy, or any other energy.
- ballasts or sets of ballasts that will be built the Hydrolienne.
- the spirals resting on these different types of ballast will start from below the level of the water on which the Hydrolienne will rest, and whose first turns will always be immersed, will join the top of the Hydrolienne without interrupt and will flow into the tank. They will include many non-return valves (C) or liquid ladders.
- the tank (R) will be placed as high as possible in the tidal turbine, under the spillways of the spirals and that the latter will leave the nozzles joining the hydroelectric turbines.
- one or more hydroelectric turbines will receive water from the nozzles to transform the energy of the water into electrical energy or any other energy.
- said tidal turbine is moored at a specific spot where there are waves or waves: foot of waterfall, rough river, seaside, open sea, etc.
- the spirals can be constructed in all types of materials, existing or future, of length, number, size, and sections (U), without limits and that these spirals will be formed of tubes, rectilinear, curves of sections and repetitive or different forms according to the necessities, without that changing the goals sought.
- one or more turbo-alternators (P) placed as low as possible in the Hydrolienne will transform the energy of the waterfall into electricity or any other energy, without this affecting the purpose of the Hydrolienne.
- all other means of transformation of the energy produced may, following the progress of future techniques, replace the alternators without influencing the tidal turbine.
- the energy recovered in any form whatsoever may be used, stored, shipped or processed on site, without this changing the nature of the Hydrolienne.
- the invention is constituted:
- ballasts B, fig 2/14, fig 3/14, fig 4/14, fig 5, fig 6, and B'M ', fig 1/14, B "M ", Fig 12/14
- spiral tubes S1 in the form of a corkscrew or an irregular helical spring comprising straight lines and curves, starting from below the level of the water which carries the invention and going up to its summit,
- indefinite shape R (fig 1/14, fig 2/14, fig 6/14, fig 9, fig10), which will receive the water raised by the spiral tubes, and which will be placed at most high possible in the building, under the spills of the spirals,
- ballasts will have a base or footprint E (Fig 5/14 and EG (Fig 6/14) large enough and massive so that the invention never falls under the action of large waves.It may be added stabilizers (Z , fig 11/14 and Z fig 12/14) with automatic action for heavy weather. The shape of ballasts facing swell and waves, will be massive.
- It may be closed tubes (B fig 4/14) of steel or any other material, very large diameter, shapes and section U (Fig. 9/14) (U-1, U-2, U-3, U-4, U-5) component between the maximum stability and the cost of manufacture, forming one or more rings on which the invention will rest.
- the base ring which one will call “Tempreinte” will have a square form E (fig 5/14) oval, round (EG, (fig 6/14) in which will be inscribed a (or spiral (S) of triangular base, square, pentagonal, hexagonal B1, fig 6/14), octagonal or any geometric shape or not.
- the tubes forming these rings-ballasts will have a round, oval, square, rectangular section.They will be waterproof but will include traps
- the large diameter tubes forming the ballasts (B, fig 4/14, may be peripheral in one piece but for reasons of cost of manufacture these tube rings will rather be cut B1 (fig 6/14). ) forming a triangular, quadrangular, pentagonal, hexagonal fingerprint EG (FIG. 6/14), octagonal or of any geometrical or non-geometrical shape, connected by connecting pieces (Q fig 6/14) and whether or not they comprise intervals K ( fig 6/14).
- the ballasts may also be formed of a set of tanks of various shapes (Fig. 5/14, 5-1, 5-2), without limitations of shapes and volumes) forming part of a circular shape (EG fig 6) or oval, square (E, fig 5/14 seen from above) or other shapes. They will be waterproof but will also include trap doors. Their volumes will be sufficient to maintain the invention in a state of flotation with all the superstructures filled with water, adding to the weight of the filled spirals and the weight of the turbine. The importance of ballasts will also largely take into account the effect of swaying caused by swell and wind, so that the whole of the invention does not undergo an uncontrollable cottage preventing it from returning to its original position.
- each ballast in the form of a ring may be canted B1 (fig 6/14) closed by the laying of bottoms (J fig 6/14).
- J fig 6/14 we will thus have a broken ring formed of independent reservoirs, with or without intervals (K fig 6/14). All forms are possible according to the requirements of the places of exploitation.
- ballast having the shape of a bottom of a tank or a saucer, or a boat (B "M” fig 1/14), and (B “M” fig 12/14) and in this case the best shape is the round or oval shape, without these forms being limiting.
- They can be built of steel, aluminum, polyester or concrete, etc. Concrete is to plebiscite for its cost, but it is not limiting.
- c - have a step on the left, or a step on the right, or both (w1, w2, fig 5/14), and w1, w2, fig 10/14 on the same multi-spiral machine,
- d - have tubes that make up these spirals of different sections and shapes (U fig 9/14, (U-1, U-2, -U-3, -U-4, U-4) or any geometric shapes or not, '- e - have on the same device several types of spirals
- g- not to be necessarily formed of regular curves, but to be an alternation of curves and straight lines, on the one hand for the needs of the manufacture and also for its cost, because the rectilinear tubes are much cheaper to manufacture than the curved tubes.
- the section and shape of the pipes of the spiral or spirals may be constant or uniform, or on the contrary be progressive, degressive or alternative without harming the efficiency of these spirals, each spiral portion between two check valves or two scales, behaving as an independent tube.
- each spiral can therefore be a stack of turns in strict superposition (fig 2/14, fig 3/14)), or to adopt a superposition pyramid inverted pyramid (fig 4 / 14), or any other arrangement (fig 1/14) mixed (fig 4/14). In case of multiplicity of spirals, they may have a stack different from each other.
- the desired component is to obtain the best balance of this invention without the risk of overturning under the effect of large waves.
- the general geometry (and the calculation of the importance of the ballasts will also take into account the fact that this swing will be more ample in height than at the level of the ballasts.
- the total weight of the invention in running order, with all the spirals filled with water will give the volume of the ballasts that will support the invention and therefore the section of the pipes S (FIG. 9/14) ballast, if it is the selected ballast solution.
- This necessary volume will be increased by a protection coefficient (D +0.25, D + 1D, D + 2D, D + 3D (fig 14/14).
- Stabilizers automatically operating only when the waves are so large that they could endanger the invention, will be added for an action outside the initial footprint in the operating locations under the conditions often unpredictable (Z (fig 11/14) and Z (fig 12/14).
- each spiral has a substantially constant elevation angle with respect to the horizontal varying between 1 and 5% (A fig 1/14, fig 2/14) if the spiral is equipped with valves, and A (fig 11 / 14) if the spiral is equipped with liquid ladders, and even more for devices placed in places of strong swell.
- the spirals will be inclined contrary to Newton's Law, that is to say the opposite of a descent by gravity and without sway of the Invention, nothing can work.
- C fig 3/14 There are many models but we prefer those of our manufacture (fig 7/14 fig 8/14, computer files for 3D manufacturing being ready). Scales can also be considered (Fig. 11/14).
- the operating principle is that the swinging of the device, obeying the force of the swell and the waves will constantly change the center of gravity of the invention, a bit like a metronome but irregular, making parts of the spiral sometimes positive in relation to the horizontal, sometimes negative.
- the lowest turns of the spirals of the invention will be permanently below the water level on which it rests (X, fig 1/14, fig 2, fig 3, fig 4), and the end of the last lower turn will be closed. Holes (X1, Fig 1/14, Fig 2/14) lateral, with or without anti return, will allow it to fill permanently. This detail is not binding, other solutions can be considered.
- the tube forming each spiral goes from the liquid on which the invention rests to the top thereof, and will constantly undergo a "snap shot” caused by the waves and the swell, with each change of attitude. Racket will propel relatively suddenly the water contained in the spiral portion that has changed attitude until after the first check valve or even after several.
- the liquid of the first spiral will cross one, two or even three check valves.
- the weight of the liquid thus retained will modify the axis of stability of the invention, an effect which will increase as the operation will be repeated, so that the liquid will rise in the spiral.
- a side effect will occur because the weight of the liquid will be constantly changing, and this at the periphery of the spiral, further amplified when the load of this liquid will reach the upper part of the invention.
- the spirals will, in principle, not be circular. For reasons of ease of manufacture and cost, they will most often be composed of alternating curves and straight lines.
- the curved tubes are more expensive to manufacture, and the smaller the radius of these curves, the more the water is braked. It will be necessary each time to find the best compromise.
- This compromise can also involve the use of tubes of rectangular section or other and even different shapes of section in the curves of the same spiral (Fig. 9/14, 9-1, 9-2, 9-3, 9). -4, 9-5 These shapes are not limiting) and may have a better coefficient of water slip.
- a storage tank of indifferent shape as high as possible with respect to the discharge spouts from the top of the spirals (R fig 1/14, fig 3/14, fig 10/14, fig 11 ).
- One or more forced conduits (N fig 1/14, N fig 2/14, N fig 4/14) will join the, or the hydroelectric turbines (P fig 1/14, P fig 2/14, P fig 3/14 ) that will turn energy into electricity. It will be stored, transformed or sent to shore by an electric cable. It is possible that in the future, other techniques will replace the hydroelectric turbines to exploit the waterfalls available to us.
- This invention will have no impact on the sites, and could easily be integrated into nature.
- the RESTOR Flydro MAP is a mapping tool that provides data accurate and reliable concerning the hydroelectric potential of the identified sites in the 27 European countries.
- the RESTOR Hydro Map has identified the location, and specifies the characteristics of approximately 50,000 sites, including 25,000 in France.
- This type of turbines can significantly increase the share of energy "flux.”
- Another advantage when the delivery "peak” is not necessary the production of this type of tidal turbine can be instantly stopped by a single solenoid valve located at the bottom of the spirals of the turbines, and the hydroelectric turbine will be automatically stopped. This action can be done from the interconnection centers. Restarting will also be easy by opening electro-controlled valves.

L’Invention est constituée : The invention is constituted:
- d’un flotteur ou des flotteurs que nous appellerons ballasts (B, fig 2/14, fig 3/14, fig 4/14, fig 5, fig 6, et B‘M’, fig 1/14, B”M”, fig 12/14), a float or floats that we will call ballasts (B, fig 2/14, fig 3/14, fig 4/14, fig 5, fig 6, and B'M ', fig 1/14, B "M ", Fig 12/14),
- d’un ou plusieurs tubes en spirale S1 (fig 1/14, fig 2/14, fig 3/14, fig 9, fig 10), ayant la forme d’un tire-bouchon ou d’un ressort hélicoïdal irrégulier comportant des droites et des courbes, partant de sous le niveau de l’eau qui porte l’invention et allant jusqu’à son sommet, one or more spiral tubes S1 (FIG. 1/14, FIG. 2/14, FIG. 3, FIG. 9, FIG. 10), in the form of a corkscrew or an irregular helical spring comprising straight lines and curves, starting from below the level of the water which carries the invention and going up to its summit,
- d’un réservoir de forme indéfinie R (fig 1/14, fig 2/14, fig 6/14, fig 9, fig10), qui va recevoir l’eau remontée par les tubes en spirale, et qui sera placé au plus haut possible dans l’édifice, sous les déversements des spirales, - a reservoir of indefinite shape R (fig 1/14, fig 2/14, fig 6/14, fig 9, fig10), which will receive the water raised by the spiral tubes, and which will be placed at most high possible in the building, under the spills of the spirals,
- d’une ou des tuyères N (fig 2/14, fig 3/14, fig 9/14), forcées, qui amèneront l’eau à ou aux turbines hydroélectriques, one or more forced nozzles N (FIG. 2/14, FIG. 3/14, FIG. 9/14) which will bring the water to or from the hydroelectric turbines,
- d’un ou plusieurs turbines hydroélectriques P (fig 2/14,9/14,11 ,12.). - One or more hydroelectric turbines P (Fig 2 / 14.9 / 14,11,12.).
Dès que l’eau aura été moulinée, elle retournera à son point de départ dans la masse liquide de prélèvement. As soon as the water has been milled, it will return to its starting point in the liquid collection mass.
1 ° Le ou les ballasts B fig 2/14, fig 3/14, fig 4, fig 5-14 et 5-14, fig 6/14, fig 11/14 et B”M” fig 1/14, fig 12/14) 1 ° The ballast (s) B fig 2/14, fig 3/14, fig 4, fig 5-14 and 5-14, fig 6/14, fig 11/14 and B "M" fig 1/14, fig 12 / 14)
Ils seront déterminés par le type de vagues ou de houle que l’Invention aura à affronter. Très souvent les vagues et la houle n’auront pas la même direction pour origine. Les vagues sont surtout le fruit du vent établi sur place, la houle aura une origine plus lointaine et souvent de direction différente de la vague. L’énergie qui va nous permettre de faire monter cette eau dans nos spirales sera donc une composante de ces deux énergies. Les ballasts auront une base ou empreinte E (fig 5/14 et EG (fig 6/14) suffisamment large et massive pour que l’Invention ne bascule jamais sous l’action de grosses vagues. Il pourra y être adjoint des stabilisateurs (Z, fig 11/14 et Z fig 12/14) à action automatique pour les jours de gros temps. La forme des ballasts affrontant de la houle et des vagues, sera massive. Il pourra s’agir de tubes fermés (B fig 4/14) d’acier ou de tout autre matériau, de très gros diamètre, de formes et de section U (fig 9/14) (U-1 , U-2, U-3, U-4, U-5) composant entre la stabilité maximale et le coût de fabrication, formant un ou des anneaux sur lequel reposera l’invention. L’anneau de base, que l’on appellera‘Tempreinte” aura une forme carrée E (fig 5/14) ovale, ronde (EG, (fig 6/14) dans laquelle sera inscrite une (ou des spirale(s) de base triangulaire, carrée, pentagonale, hexagonale B1 , fig 6/14), octogonale ou de toute forme géométrique ou non. Les tubes formant ces anneaux-ballasts auront une section ronde, ovale, carrée, rectangulaire. Ils seront étanches mais comporteront des trappes de visite. Les tubes de gros diamètre formant les ballasts (B, fig 4/14, pourront être périphériques d’une seule pièce mais pour des raisons de coût de fabrication ces anneaux de tubes seront plutôt à pans coupés B1 (fig 6/14) formant une empreinte triangulaire, quadrangulaire, pentagonale, hexagonale EG (fig 6/14), octogonales ou de toutes formes géométriques ou non, reliés par des pièces d'assemblage (Q fig 6/14) et comporteront ou non des intervalles K (fig 6/14). They will be determined by the type of waves or waves that the Invention will have to face. Very often the waves and the swell will not have the same direction for origin. The waves are mostly the result of the wind established on the spot, the swell will have a more distant origin and often of direction different from the wave. The energy that will allow us to raise this water in our spirals will be a component of these two energies. The ballasts will have a base or footprint E (Fig 5/14 and EG (Fig 6/14) large enough and massive so that the invention never falls under the action of large waves.It may be added stabilizers (Z , fig 11/14 and Z fig 12/14) with automatic action for heavy weather. The shape of ballasts facing swell and waves, will be massive. It may be closed tubes (B fig 4/14) of steel or any other material, very large diameter, shapes and section U (Fig. 9/14) (U-1, U-2, U-3, U-4, U-5) component between the maximum stability and the cost of manufacture, forming one or more rings on which the invention will rest. The base ring, which one will call "Tempreinte" will have a square form E (fig 5/14) oval, round (EG, (fig 6/14) in which will be inscribed a (or spiral (S) of triangular base, square, pentagonal, hexagonal B1, fig 6/14), octagonal or any geometric shape or not.The tubes forming these rings-ballasts will have a round, oval, square, rectangular section.They will be waterproof but will include traps The large diameter tubes forming the ballasts (B, fig 4/14, may be peripheral in one piece but for reasons of cost of manufacture these tube rings will rather be cut B1 (fig 6/14). ) forming a triangular, quadrangular, pentagonal, hexagonal fingerprint EG (FIG. 6/14), octagonal or of any geometrical or non-geometrical shape, connected by connecting pieces (Q fig 6/14) and whether or not they comprise intervals K ( fig 6/14).
Les ballasts pourront aussi être formés d’un ensemble de réservoirs de formes diverses (fig 5/14, 5-1 , 5-2), sans limitations de formes et de volumes) s'inscrivant dans une empreinte de forme circulaire (EG fig 6) ou ovale, carrée (E, fig 5/14 vue de dessus) ou autres formes. Ils seront étanches mais comporteront aussi des trappes de visite. Leurs volumes sera suffisant pour maintenir l’invention en état de flottaison avec la totalité des superstructures remplies d’eau, s’ajoutant au poids des spirales remplies et au poids de la turbine. L’importance des ballasts devra aussi largement tenir compte de l’effet de balancement provoqué par la houle et le vent, afin que jamais l’ensemble de l’Invention ne subisse une gite incontrôlable l’empêchant de revenir à sa position initiale. The ballasts may also be formed of a set of tanks of various shapes (Fig. 5/14, 5-1, 5-2), without limitations of shapes and volumes) forming part of a circular shape (EG fig 6) or oval, square (E, fig 5/14 seen from above) or other shapes. They will be waterproof but will also include trap doors. Their volumes will be sufficient to maintain the invention in a state of flotation with all the superstructures filled with water, adding to the weight of the filled spirals and the weight of the turbine. The importance of ballasts will also largely take into account the effect of swaying caused by swell and wind, so that the whole of the invention does not undergo an uncontrollable cottage preventing it from returning to its original position.
Comme nous l’avons dit plus haut, pour l’efficacité de l’action de l’Invention, et pour des raisons de coût de fabrication, chaque ballast sous forme d’anneau pourra être à pans coupés B1 (fig 6/14), fermé par la pose de fonds de cuves (J fig 6/14). Nous aurons ainsi un anneau brisé formé de réservoirs indépendants, comportant ou non des intervalles (K fig 6/14). Toutes les formes sont possibles en fonction des exigences des lieux d’exploitation. As we said above, for the effectiveness of the action of the invention, and for manufacturing cost reasons, each ballast in the form of a ring may be canted B1 (fig 6/14) closed by the laying of bottoms (J fig 6/14). We will thus have a broken ring formed of independent reservoirs, with or without intervals (K fig 6/14). All forms are possible according to the requirements of the places of exploitation.
Il peut aussi s’agir d’un ballast ayant la forme d’un fond de cuve ou d’une soucoupe, ou d’une barque (B”M”fig 1/14), et (B”M” fig 12/14) et dans ce cas la meilleure forme est la forme ronde ou ovale, sans que ces formes soient limitatives. Ils pourront être construit en acier, aluminium, polyester ou en béton, etc. Le béton est à plébisciter pour son coût, mais ce n’est pas limitatif. It can also be a ballast having the shape of a bottom of a tank or a saucer, or a boat (B "M" fig 1/14), and (B "M" fig 12/14) and in this case the best shape is the round or oval shape, without these forms being limiting. They can be built of steel, aluminum, polyester or concrete, etc. Concrete is to plebiscite for its cost, but it is not limiting.
Pour bien saisir ce qui suit, nous énonçons de suite les principes suivants : To understand the following, we set out the following principles:
10 - La hauteur H à laquelle nous pouvons faire monter l’eau est sans limites. Il suffit d’adapter le nombre d’anneaux de la spirale, 1 0 - The height H at which we can raise the water is limitless. Just adjust the number of rings in the spiral,
2°- La surface sur l’eau (ou empreinte E (fig 5 /14) et EG (fig 6/14) est sans limites. C’est l’emplacement pour l’installer sur un site ou l’eau est agitée, pied de chute d’une cascade, rivière genre torrent au débit faisant des vagues, mer, océan etc. qui détermine la surface possible de l’empreinte. 2 ° - The surface on the water (or footprint E (fig 5/14) and EG (fig 6/14) is without limits.It is the place to install it on a site where the water is agitated , foot of fall of a waterfall, river like stream torrent making waves, sea, ocean etc. which determines the possible surface of the footprint.
3°- La forme et la section des tubes des spirales sont sans limites. (Fig 9/14) 3 ° - The shape and the section of the tubes of the spirals are without limits. (Fig 9/14)
4°- La forme et la section des tubes des ballasts flotteurs est sans limite (Fig 9/14) 5°- Les spirales peuvent être : 4 ° - The shape and the section of the tubes of the ballasts floats is without limit (Fig 9/14) 5 ° - The spirals can be:
a - unique ou multiples, a - single or multiple,
b - être de diamètre ou de sections différents, b - be of diameter or of different sections,
c - avoir un pas à gauche, ou un pas à droite, ou les deux (w1 ,w2, fig 5/14), et w1 ,w2,fig 10/14 sur un même engin à spirales multiples, c - have a step on the left, or a step on the right, or both (w1, w2, fig 5/14), and w1, w2, fig 10/14 on the same multi-spiral machine,
d - avoir des tubes qui composent ces spirales de sections et de formes différentes (U fig 9/14, (U-1 , U-2, -U-3, -U-4, U-4) ou de toutes formes géométriques ou non, ' - e - avoir sur un même appareil plusieurs types de spirales d - have tubes that make up these spirals of different sections and shapes (U fig 9/14, (U-1, U-2, -U-3, -U-4, U-4) or any geometric shapes or not, '- e - have on the same device several types of spirals
f - de comporter a intervalles plus ou moins réguliers des clapets anti retour (fig 3/14, fig 7/14, fig 8/14 ) ou des échelles anti retour (fig 11/14) et ce sur toute leur longueur c’est-à-dire des premières spires qui seront toujours immergées X, (fig 1 ,fig - at intervals more or less regular non-return valves (fig 3/14, fig 7/14, fig 8/14) or anti-return ladders (fig 11/14) and this over their entire length is first turns which will always be immersed X, (fig 1, fig
2, fig 3), aux spires les plus hautes. 2, fig 3), at the highest turns.
g- de ne pas être forcément formées de courbes régulières, mais être une alternance de courbes et de droites, d’une part pour les besoins de la fabrication et aussi pour son coût, car les tubes rectilignes coûtent beaucoup moins cher à fabriquer que les tubes courbes. g- not to be necessarily formed of regular curves, but to be an alternation of curves and straight lines, on the one hand for the needs of the manufacture and also for its cost, because the rectilinear tubes are much cheaper to manufacture than the curved tubes.
h - la section et la forme des canalisations de la ou des spirales pourront être constantes ou uniformes, ou au contraire être progressives, dégressives ou alternatives sans nuire à l’efficacité de ces spirales, chaque partie de spirale entre deux clapets anti retour ou deux échelles, se comportant comme un tube indépendant . h - the section and shape of the pipes of the spiral or spirals may be constant or uniform, or on the contrary be progressive, degressive or alternative without harming the efficiency of these spirals, each spiral portion between two check valves or two scales, behaving as an independent tube.
I - La forme d’ensemble pour chaque spirale pourra donc être d’un empilement des spires en superposition stricte (fig 2/14, fig 3/14)), ou d’adopter une superposition en pyramide, pyramide inversée (fig 4/14), ou toutes autres dispositions (fig 1/14) mixtes (fig 4/14). En cas de multiplicité de spirales, celles-ci pourront avoir un empilement différent les unes des autres. I - The overall shape for each spiral can therefore be a stack of turns in strict superposition (fig 2/14, fig 3/14)), or to adopt a superposition pyramid inverted pyramid (fig 4 / 14), or any other arrangement (fig 1/14) mixed (fig 4/14). In case of multiplicity of spirals, they may have a stack different from each other.
II faut savoir que l’intérêt de l’Invention est d’obtenir une instabilité de l’engin, provoquant un balancement de celui-ci. C’est ce balancement qui va faire monter l’eau dans les tubes spirales, chaque fois qu’à l’occasion d’un changement d’assiette, une partie de la (ou des) spirale(s) passera de positif à négatif par rapport à l’horizontale et inversement. Il y aura en permanence des parties des spirales en situation positive et d’autres en situation négative par rapport l’horizontale. Les clapets anti retour répartis de façon plus ou moins régulière dans la totalité de chaque spirale empêcheront l’eau contenue dans chaque partie de spirale de revenir en arrière, quand l’assiette de cette partie de spirale s’inversera. It should be known that the interest of the invention is to obtain instability of the machine, causing a rocking thereof. It is this swaying that will raise the water in the spiral tubes, each time that during a change of attitude, part of the spiral (s) will go from positive to negative. compared to the horizontal and vice versa. There will be permanently parts of the spirals in positive situation and others in negative situation in relation to the horizontal. Non-return valves more or less evenly distributed throughout each spiral will prevent the water contained in each spiral portion from going back, when the plate of this spiral portion will reverse.
La composante recherchée est d’obtenir le meilleur balancement de cette invention sans risquer le renversement sous l’effet des grosses vagues. La géométrie générale (et le calcul de l’importance des ballasts tiendront aussi compte du fait que ce balancement sera plus ample en hauteur qu’au niveau des ballasts. The desired component is to obtain the best balance of this invention without the risk of overturning under the effect of large waves. The general geometry (and the calculation of the importance of the ballasts will also take into account the fact that this swing will be more ample in height than at the level of the ballasts.
Il faudra aussi tenir compte de l’importance du poids de l’eau contenue dans les spirales pour calculer le volume des ballasts et leur écartement et prendre un coefficient de sécurité important pour éviter qu’une gîte ne s’installe sans retour possible en cas de vague importante (fig 14/14) It will also be necessary to take into account the importance of the weight of the water contained in the spirals to calculate the volume of the ballasts and their spacing and to take an important factor of safety to avoid that a lodging does not install without return possible in case significant wave (fig 14/14)
Mais en définitive, le calcul restera simple car la surface de l’empreinte de l’Invention sera rarement un problème. Pour le calcul des proportions idéales de l’Invention nous partirons de la puissance de la turbine hydroélectrique décidée et de la hauteur de chute d’eau décidée, et nous adapterons la section des tuyaux des spirales. Nous adapterons aussi les volumes des ballasts en fonctions des études préalables du site ou sera installée l’Invention La cote D (fig 14/14) sera la cote H, multipliée par un coefficient de 1 ,25, 2,3, ou 4 voire plus, décidé en fonction de la dureté des vagues et de la houle à l’endroit ou va être installée l’Invention. But ultimately, the calculation will remain simple because the surface of the footprint of the invention will rarely be a problem. For the calculation of the ideal proportions of the Invention we will leave the power of the decided hydroelectric turbine and the decided height of waterfall, and we will adapt the section of the pipes of the spirals. We will also adapt the ballast volumes according to the preliminary studies of the site where will be installed Invention Dimension D (FIG. 14/14) will be dimension H, multiplied by a coefficient of 1, 25, 2.3, or 4 or more, decided according to the hardness of the waves and the swell at the where the invention will be installed.
A titre de comparaison, les normes de sécurité concernant les engins de levage sont obligatoirement de coefficient 6, mais les fonctions ne sont pas les mêmes. By way of comparison, the safety standards concerning lifting gear are necessarily of coefficient 6, but the functions are not the same.
Le poids total de l’invention en ordre de marche, avec la totalité des spirales remplies d’eau donnera le volume des ballasts qui supporteront l’Invention et donc la section des tuyaux S (fig 9/14) de ballast, si c’est la solution ballasts retenue. Ce volume nécessaire sera majoré d’un coefficient de protection (D +0,25, D+ 1 D, D+2D, D+3 D (fig 14/14). The total weight of the invention in running order, with all the spirals filled with water will give the volume of the ballasts that will support the invention and therefore the section of the pipes S (FIG. 9/14) ballast, if it is the selected ballast solution. This necessary volume will be increased by a protection coefficient (D +0.25, D + 1D, D + 2D, D + 3D (fig 14/14).
Les figures 2/14 et 3/14 donnent l’exemple de ce qu’il ne faut pas faire au niveau des proportions des ballasts. Figures 2/14 and 3/14 give an example of what not to do with ballast proportions.
Des stabilisateurs n’entrant en fonction de façon automatique que quand les vagues sont tellement importantes qu’elles pourraient mettre en danger l’Invention, seront ajoutés pour une action à l’extérieur de l’empreinte initiale dans les lieux d’exploitation aux conditions souvent imprévisibles (Z (fig 11/14) et Z (fig 12/14). Stabilizers automatically operating only when the waves are so large that they could endanger the invention, will be added for an action outside the initial footprint in the operating locations under the conditions often unpredictable (Z (fig 11/14) and Z (fig 12/14).
L’ensemble de cette invention forme une "Tour” de formes diverses, et à efficacité identique on priorisera l’esthétique. The whole of this invention forms a "Tour" of various forms, and identical efficiency will prioritize the aesthetics.
En atelier de fabrication l’axe des spirales sera installé (J, figs 1/14, 2/14 et 3/14) verticalement, donc perpendiculairement à l’horizontalité des ballasts. Les ballasts seront sensiblement de niveau, et l’axe des spirales sera parfaitement vertical. Par contre, chaque spirale a un angle d’élévation pratiquement constant par rapport à l’horizontale variant entre 1 et 5% (A fig 1/14, fig 2/14) si la spirale est équipée de clapets, et A (fig 11/14) si la spirale est équipée d’échelles à liquide, et même plus pour les appareils placés dans des lieux de forte houle. Les spirales seront inclinées à contresens de la Loi de Newton, c’est-à-dire à l’opposé d’une descente par gravité et sans balancement de l’Invention, rien ne peut fonctionner. In the manufacturing workshop the axis of the spirals will be installed (J, figs 1/14, 2/14 and 3/14) vertically, so perpendicular to the horizontality of the ballasts. The ballasts will be substantially level, and the axis of the spirals will be perfectly vertical. On the other hand, each spiral has a substantially constant elevation angle with respect to the horizontal varying between 1 and 5% (A fig 1/14, fig 2/14) if the spiral is equipped with valves, and A (fig 11 / 14) if the spiral is equipped with liquid ladders, and even more for devices placed in places of strong swell. The spirals will be inclined contrary to Newton's Law, that is to say the opposite of a descent by gravity and without sway of the Invention, nothing can work.
Une suite de clapets anti-retour ou d’échelles à liquide installés à distance plus ou moins régulière, mais nombreuse, est placée dans les spirales (C fig 3/14). Il existe de nombreux modèles mais nous privilégions ceux de notre fabrication (fig 7/14 fig 8/14, les fichiers informatiques pour la fabrication 3D étant prêts). Il peut aussi être envisagé des échelles (fig 11/14). Le principe de fonctionnement est que le balancement de l’appareil, obéissant à la force de la houle et des vagues va modifier sans arrêt le centre de gravité de l’Invention, un peu à la façon d‘un métronome mais irrégulier, rendant des parties de la spirale tantôt positives par rapport à l’horizontale, tantôt négatives. A series of non-return valves or liquid ladders installed at a more or less regular distance, but numerous, is placed in the spirals (C fig 3/14). There are many models but we prefer those of our manufacture (fig 7/14 fig 8/14, computer files for 3D manufacturing being ready). Scales can also be considered (Fig. 11/14). The operating principle is that the swinging of the device, obeying the force of the swell and the waves will constantly change the center of gravity of the invention, a bit like a metronome but irregular, making parts of the spiral sometimes positive in relation to the horizontal, sometimes negative.
Les spires les plus basses des spirales de l’Invention seront en permanence situées sous le niveau d’eau sur laquelle elle repose (X, fig 1/14, fig 2, fig 3, fig 4), et l’extrémité de la dernière spire inférieure sera fermée. Des perçages (X1 , fig 1/14, fig 2/14) latéraux, avec ou sans anti retours, permettront à celle-ci de se remplir en permanence. Ce détail n’est pas contraignant, d’autres solutions peuvent être envisagées. Le tube formant chaque spirale va du liquide sur lequel repose l’Invention jusqu’au sommet de celle-ci, et subira en permanence "un coup raquette” provoqué par les vagues et la houle, à chaque changement d’assiette. Ce coup de raquette propulsera de façon relativement brutale l’eau contenue dans la partie de spirale qui a changé d’assiette jusqu’après le premier clapet anti-retour ou même après plusieurs. The lowest turns of the spirals of the invention will be permanently below the water level on which it rests (X, fig 1/14, fig 2, fig 3, fig 4), and the end of the last lower turn will be closed. Holes (X1, Fig 1/14, Fig 2/14) lateral, with or without anti return, will allow it to fill permanently. This detail is not binding, other solutions can be considered. The tube forming each spiral goes from the liquid on which the invention rests to the top thereof, and will constantly undergo a "snap shot" caused by the waves and the swell, with each change of attitude. Racket will propel relatively suddenly the water contained in the spiral portion that has changed attitude until after the first check valve or even after several.
Quand la position de l’Invention par rapport à l’horizontale, lui sera favorable l’eau passera les clapets, par contre quand le balancement de l’Invention lui sera défavorable elle ne pourra pas redescendre de par la présence des ces clapets anti-retour installés de façon relativement régulière dans la totalité du tube de la spirale. When the position of the invention in relation to the horizontal, it will be favorable water will pass the valves, on the other hand when the rocking of the Invention will be unfavorable it can not fall down by the presence of these valves against back installed relatively evenly throughout the spiral tube.
Modification de la stabilité Change in stability
Suivant la puissance de l’impulsion initiée par la force de la vague, le liquide de la première spirale franchira un, deux voire trois clapets anti-retour. Le poids du liquide ainsi retenu modifiera l’axe de stabilité de l’Invention, effet qui s’amplifiera au fur et à mesure que l’opération se répétera, donc que le liquide montera dans la spirale. Un effet secondaire se produira du fait que le poids du liquide sera sans cesse changeant, et ce, à la périphérie de la spirale, encore amplifiée quand la charge de ce liquide atteindra la partie haute de l’Invention. Depending on the power of the impulse initiated by the force of the wave, the liquid of the first spiral will cross one, two or even three check valves. The weight of the liquid thus retained will modify the axis of stability of the invention, an effect which will increase as the operation will be repeated, so that the liquid will rise in the spiral. A side effect will occur because the weight of the liquid will be constantly changing, and this at the periphery of the spiral, further amplified when the load of this liquid will reach the upper part of the invention.
Il s’en suivra un phénomène de vacillement identique à celui d’une toupie qui entre dans sa phase de décélération qui sera, It will follow a phenomenon of wobbling identical to that of a top that enters its deceleration phase which will,
- amplificateur si le pas de la spirale est en pas à droite et que nous sommes dans l’hémisphère Nord, diminué si nous sommes en hémisphère Sud - amplifier if the pitch of the spiral is in right step and we are in the northern hemisphere, decreased if we are in the southern hemisphere
- amplificateur si le pas de la spirale est à gauche et que nous sommes en hémisphère Sud - amplifier if the step of the spiral is on the left and we are in southern hemisphere
- neutre si nous sommes près de l’Equateur. - neutral if we are near Ecuador.
- négatif si la spirale tourne à gauche et que nous sommes en hémisphère Nord, et inversement en hémisphère Sud. - negative if the spiral turns to the left and we are in the northern hemisphere, and vice versa in the southern hemisphere.
II sera donc possible de modifier en notre faveur cette tendance à la rotation pour avoir une meilleure efficacité des spirales : It will therefore be possible to modify in our favor this tendency to rotation to have a better efficiency of the spirals:
- en aggravant cette propension dans les endroits où il y peu de vagues ou au contraire en la limitant ou il y en a de trop fortes. - by aggravating this propensity in places where there are few waves or on the contrary limiting it or there are too many.
On pourra aussi modifier cette propension en augmentant le nombre des spirales sur un même engin, En respectant le fait que les spirales font la totalité de la hauteur de l’engin, il est possible d’installer 2, 3 ou 4 spirales de petit diamètre au lieu d’un spirale de très gros diamètre. Il est même, possible de changer le sens de rotation (w1 , w2, fig 10/14) de certaines de ces différentes spirales pour obtenir plus facilement l’effet recherché plus haut. We can also modify this propensity by increasing the number of spirals on the same machine, By respecting the fact that the spirals make the entire height of the machine, it is possible to install 2, 3 or 4 spirals of small diameter instead of a spiral of very large diameter. It is even possible to change the direction of rotation (w1, w2, fig 10/14) of some of these different spirals to more easily obtain the effect sought above.
Les spirales ne seront, en principe, pas circulaires. Pour des raisons de facilité de fabrication et de coût, elles seront le plus souvent composées de courbes et de droites alternées. Le tubes courbes sont plus coûteux à fabriquer, et plus le rayon de ces courbes est petit, plus l’eau est freinée. Il faudra à chaque fois trouver le meilleur compromis. Ce compromis peut aussi passer par l’utilisation de tubes de section rectangulaire ou autres et même de formes de section différentes dans les courbes d’une même spirale (fig 9/14, 9-1 , 9-2, 9-3, 9-4, 9-5. Ges formes ne sont pas limitatives) et peuvent présenter un meilleur coefficient de glissement de l’eau. The spirals will, in principle, not be circular. For reasons of ease of manufacture and cost, they will most often be composed of alternating curves and straight lines. The curved tubes are more expensive to manufacture, and the smaller the radius of these curves, the more the water is braked. It will be necessary each time to find the best compromise. This compromise can also involve the use of tubes of rectangular section or other and even different shapes of section in the curves of the same spiral (Fig. 9/14, 9-1, 9-2, 9-3, 9). -4, 9-5 These shapes are not limiting) and may have a better coefficient of water slip.
Le stockage de l’eau à mouliner Storage of water to be milled
Sera placé tout au sommet de l’Invention un réservoir de stockage de forme indifférente, le plus haut possible par rapport aux becs de déversement du haut des spirales (R fig 1/14, fig 3/14, fig 10/14, fig 11). Une ou des conduites forcées (N fig 1/14, N fig 2/14, N fig 4/14) vont rejoindre la, ou les turbines hydroélectriques (P fig 1/14, P fig 2/14, P fig 3/14) qui transformeront l’énergie en électricité. Celle-ci sera stockée, transformée ou envoyée à terre par un câble électrique. Il est possible que dans le futur, d’autres techniques viennent remplacer les turbines hydroélectriques pour exploiter les chutes d’eau mises à notre disposition. Possibilités industrielles Will be placed at the very top of the invention a storage tank of indifferent shape, as high as possible with respect to the discharge spouts from the top of the spirals (R fig 1/14, fig 3/14, fig 10/14, fig 11 ). One or more forced conduits (N fig 1/14, N fig 2/14, N fig 4/14) will join the, or the hydroelectric turbines (P fig 1/14, P fig 2/14, P fig 3/14 ) that will turn energy into electricity. It will be stored, transformed or sent to shore by an electric cable. It is possible that in the future, other techniques will replace the hydroelectric turbines to exploit the waterfalls available to us. Industrial Opportunities
Il est évident que cette invention se prête magistralement à la production en série. Dans un lieu d’exploitation donné, tous les engins seront à priori identiques. It is obvious that this invention lends itself masterfully to mass production. In a given place of exploitation, all the machines will be a priori identical.
On peut aussi regarder l’impact futur de cette technologie sur l’industrie. La France a la chance de fabriquer les meilleurs tubes acier de la planète. Or à l’heure actuelle, cette industrie française souffre du fait du manque de prospection de l’industrie pétrolière. L’industrie créée par cette Invention sera très consommatrice de tubes acier. We can also look at the future impact of this technology on the industry. France has the chance to make the best steel pipes on the planet. However, at present, this French industry is suffering because of the lack of exploration of the oil industry. The industry created by this invention will consume a lot of steel pipes.
Création d’emplois Job creation
D’une technologie très simple, cette industrie va permettre d’apporter un peu d’oxygène aux bassins d’emplois défavorisés. Il sera très facile de créer des centres de formation, et de donner du travail à des zones à fort taux de chômage. Technologie simple, une formation adéquate devrait permettre de trouver facilement le personnel compétent nécessaire. With a very simple technology, this industry will help bring a little oxygen to the basins of disadvantaged jobs. It will be very easy to create training centers, and to give work to areas with high unemployment. Simple technology, proper training should make it easy to find the necessary competent staff.
Le marché The market
La France, l’Europe, l’Afrique et le Monde France, Europe, Africa and the World
Pour les engins d’une puissance de 10 à 50 Kwh, Il existe en France et en Europe un potentiel d’hydroélectricité inexploité, des milliers d’anciens moulins, de seuils inutilisés et d’anciennes centrales hydroélectriques à l’arrêt. Remplacés par des hydroliennes au pied des chutes d’eau, il pourrait être organisé un mariage de la production avec la consommation régionale. For machines with a capacity of 10 to 50 kWh, France and Europe have untapped hydropower potential, thousands of old mills, unused sills and old hydroelectric power stations. Replaced by tidal turbines at the foot of the waterfalls, it could be organized a marriage of production with regional consumption.
L’exploitation de cette invention sur ces sites abandonnés permettrait -de produire de l’énergie renouvelable proche des lieux de consommation, générant ainsi des économies de réseaux. The exploitation of this invention on these abandoned sites would allow to produce renewable energy close to the places of consumption, thus generating economies of networks.
Cette Invention ne présentera aucun impact sur les sites, et serait facilement intégrable dans la nature. This invention will have no impact on the sites, and could easily be integrated into nature.
Comme le précise le site officiel http://www.restor-hvdro.eu/fr/ l’ambition européenne est de restaurer ces anciens sites/moulins actuellement non productifs. C’est un projet européen coordonné par l’Esha et porté par 8 Pays Européens et subventionné à 75% par le programme IEE. Il a pour but de faire progresser la production d’énergies renouvelables. As stated on the official website http://www.restor-hvdro.eu/en/ the European ambition is to restore these old sites / mills currently not productive. It is a European project coordinated by Esha and carried by 8 European Countries and 75% subsidized by the IEE program. It aims to advance the production of renewable energy.
Le RESTOR Flydro MAP est un outil de cartographie qui fournit des données précises et fiables concernant le potentiel hydroélectrique des sites identifiés, dans les 27 pays européens. The RESTOR Flydro MAP is a mapping tool that provides data accurate and reliable concerning the hydroelectric potential of the identified sites in the 27 European countries.
La cartes RESTOR Hydro Map a permis d’identifier l’emplacement, et précise les caractéristiques d’environ 50000 SITES, dont 25000 en France. The RESTOR Hydro Map has identified the location, and specifies the characteristics of approximately 50,000 sites, including 25,000 in France.
L’Afrique Africa
La plupart des pays d’Afrique ont énormément de cours d’eau capables de recevoir des unités de 10 à 50 KWh. Des unités de cette taille, conçus avec des matériaux peu onéreux tel le PVC, et équipé de clapets (fig 7 et fig 8) (dont les fichiers informatiques d’impression 3D sont prêts) permettraient à beaucoup de villages africains d’avoir de l’électricité, leur donnant accès à l’informatique et au téléphone, avec maintenance facile. Most countries in Africa have a lot of rivers capable of receiving units of 10 to 50 KWh. Units of this size, designed with inexpensive materials such as PVC, and equipped with valves (Fig. 7 and Fig. 8) (which computer files 3D printing are ready) would allow many African villages to have electricity, giving them access to computers and the telephone, with easy maintenance.
Le Monde The world
Il est possible d’imaginer aussi des implantations marines. Les Hôtels et Resorts installés en bord de mer dans le monde entier, seraient sans doute contents de trouver un remplacement aux groupes électrogènes. Cette Invention installée dans très peu de profondeur au plus près de la consommation de ces hôtels et resorts, végétalisés ou équipés d’agrès pourraient servir de lieux de jeux nautiques. Ils peuvent apporter une solution à l’impact de ces hôtels installés dans des endroits à l’environnent fragile. It is possible to imagine also marine settlements. Hotels and Resorts located on the seashore around the world, would probably be happy to find a replacement for generators. This invention installed in a very little depth closer to the consumption of these hotels and resorts, vegetated or equipped with apparatus could serve as nautical playgrounds. They can provide a solution to the impact of these hotels installed in places with fragile environment.
On peut aussi envisager qu’un jour ils serviront à la production d’électricité par l’implantation de fermes d’exploitation en mer. It is also conceivable that one day they will be used for the production of electricity by the establishment of farms operating at sea.
Si la production ENR tend à augmenter pour arriver à un mix énergétique de 100% renouvelable en 2050, à l’intérieur de ce mix la partie "flux” de la production par ce type d’hydroliennes est très intéressante car elle concerne les horaires de tranches demandeuses d’échanges d’interconnexions européennes. Ce type d’hydroliennes va permettre à la France de jouer à fond la complémentarité de production pour optimiser l’utilisation des réseaux d’interconnexion. If the ENR production tends to increase to arrive at a 100% renewable energy mix in 2050, within this mix the part "flow" of the production by this type of turbines is very interesting because it concerns the schedules of This type of turbines will enable France to play a major role in the complementarity of production in order to optimize the use of interconnection networks.
Ces échanges génèrent 5 milliards d’euros d’exportations à l’heure actuelle. These exchanges generate 5 billion euros of exports at present.
Si nous augmentons la production d’ENR photovoltaïques, nous tomberons en concurrence directe avec l’Espagne ou le Maghreb qui ont plus de soleil que nous. Ce type d’hydroliennes produira 24h/24 plus de If we increase the production of photovoltaic ENRs, we will come into direct competition with Spain or the Maghreb, which have more sun than we do. This type of turbines will produce 24h / 24 more than
300 jours par an (+ de 7000h/an), et notamment la nuit et les jours sans soleil. A ces moments les interconnexions ne sont pas saturées et il sera possible d’augmenter sensiblement nos exportations. 300 days a year (more than 7000h / year), and especially the night and the days without sun. At these times the interconnections are not saturated and it will be possible to increase substantially our exports.
Les façades maritimes de la Manche et de l’Atlantique ont un régime de vagues et de houle exploitables presqu'à temps complet. The maritime facades of the English Channel and the Atlantic have a regime of waves and waves that can be exploited almost completely.
Ce type d’hydroliennes peu augmenter de façon significative la part d’énergie "flux”. Autre avantage, quand la livraison "pointe” n’est pas nécessaire la production de ce type d’hydrolienne pourra être instantanément stoppée par une simple électrovanne située au bas des spirales des hydroliennes, et la turbine hydroélectrique sera automatiquement arrêtée. Cette action pouvant être faite à partir des centres d’interconnexion. La remise en route sera aussi facilement par ouverture des vannes électro-commandées. This type of turbines can significantly increase the share of energy "flux." Another advantage, when the delivery "peak" is not necessary the production of this type of tidal turbine can be instantly stopped by a single solenoid valve located at the bottom of the spirals of the turbines, and the hydroelectric turbine will be automatically stopped. This action can be done from the interconnection centers. Restarting will also be easy by opening electro-controlled valves.
On aura ainsi une production On/Off. We will have a production On / Off.
De plus ces façades maritimes sont exploitables à un minimum de distance, sans être obligé de s’éloigner de la côte pour éviter la pollution visuelle. D’une hauteur 10 fois moindre que les éoliennes pour une même puissance. In addition these maritime facades are exploitable at a minimum distance, without having to move away from the coast to avoid visual pollution. At a height 10 times less than wind turbines for the same power.
Sans impact sur la faune et la flore, la courbure de la terre aura vite fait de les faire disparaître de la vue du public. Le coût du raccordement s’en trouvera grandement bonifié. Without impact on fauna and flora, the curvature of the earth will quickly make them disappear from public view. The cost of the connection will be greatly improved.
Impact sur l’Environnement Environmental impact
Cette technologie apporte une réponse aux inquiétudes et aux rejets des populations concernant les éoliennes. This technology provides an answer to the concerns and rejections of the population regarding wind turbines.
Ces hydroliennes d’un nouveau genre n’auront que peu d’impact visuel, et aucun impact sur la faune et la flore de l’endroit où elles seront implantées. De peu de hauteur par rapport aux éoliennes de même puissance, elles seront très faciles à masquer dans la végétation. These turbines of a new kind will have little visual impact, and no impact on the fauna and flora of the place where they will be implanted. Small in height compared to wind turbines of the same power, they will be very easy to hide in the vegetation.
Elles pourront même être végétalisées elles-mêmes, et pourront être garnies de nichoirs pour les oiseaux. Elles peuvent aussi devenir des centres de vie pour la faune aquatique. Implantables partout, elles seront mieux acceptées des usagés habituels de la mer, car ne prenant la place de personne. They can even be planted themselves, and can be filled with nest boxes for birds. They can also become centers of life for aquatic fauna. Implantable everywhere, they will be better accepted by the usual users of the sea, because they do not take the place of anyone.
