Abstract:
The invention relates to a flow power plant, comprising a water turbine having torsionally rigid rotor blades, a drive train connected to the water turbine, which at least indirectly drives an electric generator and is characterized in that at inflow speeds v for which the flow power plant is designed, the water turbine is configured to be non-auto-restarting for tip speed ratios λ below a predetermined auto-restart tip speed ratio λs where λs≧1.
