Abstract
A turbine for a multijet fluid flow meter having a planar disk mounted for rotation in the meter housing includes a plurality of vertical blades supported normal to, and by, the disk. A ribbed shaft carried by the disk drives a counter. The disk may include braking ribs on the upper or lower surface for slowing rotation of the disk when subjected to strong fluid flows. Various blade configurations are contemplated, and the turbine may additionally take the form of a duality of parallel disks interconnected by a plurality of blades normal to both disks.
