FIELD: conversion of river flow energy into turbine shaft rotation mechanical energy. SUBSTANCE: plant has curvilinear narrowing chute to feed water to cylinder which accommodates turbine with output shaft. U-shaped chute is turned through 90° so that its outer vertical wall is arranged between horizontal flanges and cylinder is located outside river bed. EFFECT: provision of operation of turbine without abrasive wear caused by hard particle suspension. 4 dwg
