Tidal Energy at the Uldolmok Strait, Korea Testing of the Gorlov Helical Turbine designed and built by GCK Technology, Inc. conducted by the Korea Ocean Research & Development Institute (“KORDI”) Testing of the Gorlov Helical Turbine designed and built by GCK Technology, Inc. conducted by the Korea Ocean Research & Development Institute (“KORDI”)
2
The inventor, Dr. Alexander Gorlov, with a sub-unit of the Gorlov Helical Turbine ( “ GHT ” ) during construction of the GHT (1m diameter, 2.5 m length) tested by KORDI in the Uldolmok Strait.

VARIOUS ROTORS
6
Demonstration projects Cape Cod--1996
7
Tidal Power system with 3 GHTs under a motel in Maine, May 2003
8
Shelter Island Strait, July 2004
13
The first tidal power generation from a GHT was on July 10, 2002. The 1 meter GHT turned at 160-180 rpms in a 4 knot current and generated 8-10 kW.
14
In 2004 GCK built a larger GHT, 2.2 m in diameter and 2.5 m in length to be tested at KORDI ’ s site in the Uldolmok Strait.

1 meter and 2.2 meter GHTs during testing by KORDI in the Uldolmok Strait.
16
GORLOV’S CONCEPTUAL DESIGN for a floating power station in the Uldolmok Strait
17
KORDI’S CONCEPTUAL DESIGN for a fixed power station in the Uldolmok Strait
