Hydroturbine is a machine in Stanislaw Lem's Novel Fiasco.

Physical Properties

Hydroturbines are thermonuclear reactors of the flowstream type.

They are fuelled by hydrogen in high vacuum.

Flowstream engines are superior to Photon Drive because they don't need to carry their fuel but receive it, at near light speed, from the high vacuum.
