Genesis in Marine Propulsion

AMJET Turbine Systems, LLC (ATS) has utilized composite marine water jet technology to create a new low head hydro turbine/generator. Low head hydropower (axial flow) is the inverse of a marine water jet. ATS has a sister company, American Hydro Jet Corporation (AHJ), that has designed and built water jets for large yachts, see figure 6 below. The flow direction and rotation are reversed but mechanical loads, stresses and hydrodynamics are the same and basic construction developed by AHJ is now used by ATS.
