Fluid turbine assembly and method of actuation of a fluid turbine
A fluid turbine assembly includes a main rotor and a secondary rotor, each operatively coupled to separate rotation shafts and configured for independent operation. The assembly features a fluid inlet system that selectively directs fluid to one or both rotors based on predetermined criteria. The main rotor incorporates hollow arms to distribute fluid centrifugally, while the secondary rotor processes fluid discharged from the main rotor. The assembly includes a control system for independently adjusting power and torque distribution between the rotors to improve efficiency under varying flow conditions. The configuration allows the fluid turbine to manage diverse operating demands, including changes in flow rates and pressure, while optimizing energy output.

Energy generating device
An energy generating device for generating energy from a flowing fluid, especially from a wind flow and/or from a water flow, comprises: a rotation body, the rotation body extending along an axis of rotation between a first point and a second point and the rotation body being adapted to rotate about the axis of rotation and the rotation body being formed from at least a first, a second, and a third rotation segment, wherein the rotation segments are joined together and arranged along the axis of rotation, and they form a region at least partly surrounded by fluid, wherein the second rotation segment is situated between the first and the third rotation segment and has a different diameter than the first and third rotation segment; and a generator device mechanically connected to the rotation body, wherein the generator device is adapted to generate energy which is produced from the rotation of the rotation body.
