FIELD: electrical engineering.
SUBSTANCE: proposed hydroelectric power station incorporates cyclic air-fluid pump comprising altitude tight funnel-shaped reservoir with roof arranged to be heated by ambient air, solar radiation or electric heating panel fitted into the reservoir housing, suck-in pipe with valve arranged to lift water from the water pool into the aforesaid reservoir, pressure pipe with valve arranged to lift water from the aforesaid reservoir up to the roof, surge tank with an overflow U-tube, cooling pipeline communicating with the surge tank to cool the electric heating panel, protective screen, water duct arranged to feed water from the roof onto the capsule hydro turbine unit blades and water drain-off duct to feed water back into the pool. At that the pool, pipes and the tank are furnished with plate heaters.
EFFECT: ecologically safe hydroelectric power station built around high-efficiency simple-design pump that features ease of installation and operation.
