01 / Technology

A turbine built around the flow

Less mechanical complexity.
More energy potential.

The EHT places a magnetically supported rotor inside the flow path, surrounded by an electromagnetic stator. The architecture is being developed to generate power without a conventional shaft penetrating the pipe wall.

Inline architecture

Flow, rotation and electricity—aligned in one compact system.

The platform is designed for integration into new or existing infrastructure where usable flow and pressure are available.

  • 01 Flow passes through the rotor
  • 02 Embedded magnets move through the stator field
  • 03 Direct-drive conversion produces electrical output

01

Contactless rotor

Magnetic levitation is intended to reduce friction, wear and maintenance pathways associated with a conventional shaft-and-bearing drivetrain.

02

Inline integration

The rotor and generator are arranged around the pipe axis, preserving a compact architecture aligned with the existing flow path.

03

Configurable platform

Rotor geometry, stator design, materials and controls can be tailored to the medium, duty cycle and installation environment.

    Initial water-site screening

    Have a flow asset
    worth exploring?

    Put together an initial pilot brief. This quick calculation shows theoretical hydraulic power in water before conversion losses. It is a screening input, not an EHT generation forecast.

    Where is the water opportunity?

    Illustrative values are prefilled. Replace them with measured site data where possible.

    Flow × usable pressure drop before turbine, electrical and system losses

    At 100 L/s and 1 bar of usable pressure drop. Confirm the operating profile and minimum downstream pressure.

    The EHT is under development. This figure does not predict electrical output, technical feasibility or economic returns. Closed loops need an external energy source.
