The turbine (102) may be adapted for producing electrical energy using harnessed tidal kinetic energy through the plurality of aerodynamic and unidirectional water-flow designed blades (104). The plurality of aerodynamic and unidirectional water-flow designed blades (104) may be rotatable and perpendicularly connected with the turbine (102) using corresponding plurality of blade arms (106). The plurality of aerodynamic water-flow designed blades (104) may be unidirectional regardless of ebb and flow of water currents.

[0045] Referring to the FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 that illustrates an upper and lower view of a submerged tidal energy pod, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.

[0046] In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, the turbine (102) may further comprise of a rotor (110); a three stage planetary gear-box (112), and a generator (114). The rotor (110) may be rotatable and perpendicularly connected with the plurality of aerodynamic and unidirectional water-flow designed blades (104) using the corresponding plurality of blade arms (106). The three stage planetary gear-box (112) may be rotatable connected to the rotor (110) and adapted for producing high gear ratios to produce electrical energy based on the harnessed tidal kinetic energy. The generator (114) may be rotatable connected with the three stage planetary gear-box (112) for producing electrical energy.

[0047] Referring to the FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 that illustrates a lower and upper view of a turbine, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.

[0048] In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, the turbine (102) may further comprise of the three stage planetary gear-box (112), and the generator (114). The three stage planetary gear-box (112) may be rotatable connected to the rotor (110) and adapted for producing high gear ratios to produce electrical energy based on the harnessed tidal kinetic energy. The generator (114) may be rotatable connected with the three stage planetary gear-box (112) for producing electrical energy.

[0049] Referring to the FIG. 6 that illustrates an exploded view of a gear-box, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.

[0050] In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, the three stage planetary gear-box (112) further comprises of a low speed shaft (116) connected to the rotor (110), a high speed shaft (118) connected to the generator (114), a plurality of sun gears (120), a plurality of ring gear (122), a plurality of planetary gears (124) connected with each other using a plurality of planetary arms (126) in between, a spur gear (128), and an output gear (130).

[0051] In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, the three stage planetary gear-box (112) may be rotatable connected to the rotor (110) and adapted for producing high gear ratios to produce electrical energy based on the harnessed tidal kinetic energy. The following formula may be used to calculate gear ratio:

[0052] General formula for gear ratio:

(R+S)Ty=(RTr)+(TsS)

[0053] Where:

[0054] R=Number of Teeth in Ring gear

[0055] S=Number of Teeth in Sun gear

[0056] Ty=Turns of the planetary gear carrier

[0057] Tr=Turns of Ring gear

[0058] Ts=Turns of Sun gear

[0059] The three stage planetary gear-box (112) may have a stationary ring gear. So the formula will be:

[0060] Tr=Zero due to Ring gear was stationary

(R+S)Ty=(RTr)+(TsS)

(R+S)Ty=(RTr)+(TsS)

(R+S)Ty=(TsS)

[0061] The input may be the planetary carrier (124) and the output may be the sun gear (120).

Gear ratio=Output gear/Input gear

Gear ratio=Ts/Ty=(R+S)/S

[0062] In the 1st to 3rd planetary gear (124), the number of teeth of the sun gear (120), the planetary gear (124) and the ring gear (122) are the same.

R=75

S=25

P=(R+S)/2

P=50

[0063] Therefore:

[00001]$\mathrm{Gear}.Math..Math.\mathrm{ratio}=\mathrm{Ts}/\mathrm{Ty}=\left(R+S\right)/S$$.Math.\mathrm{Ts}/\mathrm{Ty}=\left(R+S\right)/S=\left(75+25\right)/25$$\mathrm{Gear}.Math..Math.\mathrm{ratio}=4.Math..Math.\left(1.Math.\mathrm{st}.Math..Math.\mathrm{to}.Math..Math.3.Math.\mathrm{rd}.Math..Math.\mathrm{stage}.Math..Math.\mathrm{planetary}.Math..Math.\mathrm{gear}.Math..Math.\left(124\right)\right)$

[0064] For the 4th stage: spur gear (128) combination

[00002]$\mathrm{Spur}.Math..Math.\mathrm{input}.Math..Math.\text{gear}=25.Math..Math.\mathrm{teeth}$$\mathrm{Spur}.Math..Math.\mathrm{output}.Math..Math.\mathrm{gear}=75.Math..Math.\mathrm{teeth}$$\begin{array}{c}\mathrm{Gear}.Math..Math.\mathrm{ratio}=.Math.\mathrm{Output}.Math..Math.\mathrm{gear}/\mathrm{Input}.Math..Math.\mathrm{gear}\\ =.Math.75/25\end{array}$$\mathrm{Gear}.Math..Math.\mathrm{ratio}=3$

[0065] Therefore, the overall gear ratio of 3 stage planetary gear and spur gear will be:

Overall gear ratio=(1st stage gear ratio)(2nd stage gear ratio)(3rd stage gear ratio)(4th stage gear ratio)=(4)(4)(4)(3)

Combined gear ratio=192

Overall gear ratio=192:1

Means: 1 rotation of the rotor will create 192 rotations on the gear of the generator

The plurality of mini airfoils (134) may extrude from the blade body (132) allowing spitting water as water-flow passes the blade body (132). The plurality of mini airfoils (134) extruding from the blade body (132) may increase lift and reduce drag force for rotation of the plurality of aerodynamic and unidirectional water-flow designed blades (104). The plurality of mini airfoils (134) extruding from the blade body (132) may make spinning movement of the plurality of aerodynamic and unidirectional water-flow designed blades (104) more efficient.

[0070] Referring to the FIG. 16 is illustrating a P-v graph, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.

[0071] In accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the calculation for energy or power generated using the submerged tidal energy pod(100) may be based on the following formula:

P=Av3

[0072] Where:

[0073] P=Power/Energy generated by the turbine

[0074] =Density of Sea water(1029 kg/m3)

[0088] In accordance with an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, based on the graph of power (KW) v/s velocity (m/s), the power generated by the turbine (102) was directly proportional to velocity and also to the swept area of the turbine (102). It should be noted that the computation was only for one turbine unit (102). Therefore, as the more number of the turbine (102) are added, the more power generation is achieved.
