Описание:

Benoit Fourneyron was a French engineer who first created his own new type of waterwheels, called a turbine. In his design, the wheel was horizontal, the turbine used two sets of blades, curved in opposite directions to get as much power from the water's motion. Over the next decade, Fourneyron built bigger and better improved turbines. By 1837, he had a 60 horsepower turbine capable of an average 2,300 rotations per minute.
