FIELD: power industry.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to hydropower engineering, in particular to orthogonal turbines. The orthogonal turbine with positive buoyancy contains the floating block with a two-way water line 8 consisting of two cone-shaped floating pipes with rectangular section. In the place of joint of pipes the docking assembly is located which has the form of a stand where on the vertical axis the wheel of the orthogonal turbine 2 is installed. The wheel consists of a hollow shaft hub and sealed hollow disks 4 and blades 3. The shaft hub is connected through the bearing in the top cover of the turbine 2 with the drive the top end face of which contains a gear wheel for transfer of the rotary moment of the turbine 2 through the transmission to the 7th generator located in the stationary bin. End faces of the water line 8 are fitted with the flap gates 9, 10 hingedly connected among themselves by external rods.
EFFECT: invention is aimed at reduction of draft of the floating block and decrease of cost of the orthogonal turbine.
