Original abstract
In the article is introduced the new type of the turbine – swirl turbine. This turbine is based on opposite principle than Kaplan turbine. Euler equation is satisfied in the form From this equation is seen, that inflow of liquid into the runner is without rotation and on the outflow is a rotation of liquid opposite of rotation of runner. This turbine is suitable for small head and large discharge. Some constructional variants of this turbine are introduced in the article and theoretical aspects regarding losses in the draft tube. The theory is followed by computational simulations in Fluent and experiments using laser Doppler anemometry.

V příspěvku je představen nový typ turbiny, určený pro říční toky. Tím se konstrukční provedení turbiny výrazně zjednoduší. Tomu odpovídají i nízké náklady na pořízení vírové turbiny.
