You wouldn't do a fan though, you'd have a line and a buoy and use the up and down motion to drive a linear electromagnetic generator to harvest energy.
- fennecbutt 4mo agoYeah but it's not really a lateral flow of water when the locks fill up and empty.
- lexicality 4mo agoyou do get lateral flow up/downstream during filling and emptying, but it's generally considered rude to do it fast enough to cause turbulence
