Abstract:
1. An axial turbine blade assembly for propellers, the axial turbine blade assembly comprising: a central disc member coupled to an elongated shaft of a motor or generator; a rotational support member mounted on outer circumference of the central disc member; an outer ring mounted on outer circumference of the rotational support member; and a plurality of blade members extending radially outward from the outer ring, each of the plurality of blade members having an exterior surface, an interior surface, a leading edge and a trailing edge; the exterior surface includes a first region having a curved surface along the leading edge, a second region having a flat surface along the trailing edge, the flat surface being attached proximate the central disc member and a convex surface extending from the flat surface along the trailing edge and terminating to a radially inward portion; and the interior surface includes a third region having a concave surface proximate the trailing edge; whereby the curved surface along the leading edge, the flat surface along the trailing edge and the concave surface proximate the trailing edge of each of the plurality of blade members oriented in relation to the central disc member renders the formation of a unique blade configuration that facilitates uni-directional rotation of the axial turbine blade assembly irrespective of changes in flow direction of fluid.
