Hydraulic turbine

A hydraulic drive for rotating based on a flow of fluid, comprising:

• at least one helical pipe having an angle from 14° to 16° from horizontal;
• an inlet at a top of the at least one helical pipe for receiving the flow of fluid;
• an outlet at a bottom of the at least one helical pipe for flowing the flow of fluid out of the at least one helical pipe;
• and
• a baffle positioned within the at least one helical pipe configured to change a direction of the flow of fluid within the at least one helical pipe to impart a rotational motion of the hydraulic drive.

A hydraulic accumulator for generating a pressurized flow of a fluid, comprising:

• a fluid reservoir;
• a flow amplifier connected to a supply pipe and configured to rotate within the fluid reservoir to generate the pressurized flow;
• a supply motor for driving a rotation of the flow amplifier;
• and
• an outlet at a base of the fluid reservoir configured to flow the pressurized flow of the fluid out of the fluid reservoir,
• wherein the flow amplifier includes at least one amplifier pipe connected to the supply pipe and configured to flow a supply flow of the fluid from the supply pipe and into the fluid reservoir while the flow amplifier is rotating,
• wherein the flow amplifier is configured to rotate within the fluid reservoir to generate a vortex within the fluid reservoir when the fluid reservoir is at least partially filled with the fluid, and
• wherein the flow amplifier is connected to an impeller of the supply pipe to pump a supply of the fluid up the supply pipe and into the flow amplifier.
