H.E.R.P.S — Variable Flow Turbine Generator Unit
Volume 14 — Energy Recovery Core (Full Dimensions Blueprint)
Hybrid Energy Recovery Pump System (H.E.R.P.S)
System Overview
Volume 14 provides the complete dimensional, mechanical and performance specification for the Variable Flow Turbine Generator Unit — the core of the H.E.R.P.S energy recovery architecture. This subsystem converts hydraulic energy into electrical power using a mixed‑flow turbine, variable guide vane system and high‑efficiency permanent magnet generator.
