Abstract
A downhole power generation system may include a downhole tubular having a generator recess. The generator recess is radially offset from a central bore of the downhole tubular, and the generator recess is connected to the central bore via an opening. The system may further include a generator disposed at least partially within the generator recess. Additionally, the system may include at least one turbine blade configured to drive rotation of the rotor in response to fluid flow through the central bore with the at least one turbine blade in an extended position. The at least one turbine blade is disposed at least partially within the central bore in the extended position, and the at least one turbine blade is configured to move at least partially into the generator recess toward a retracted position in response to contact with a downhole tool moving along the central bore.
