English translation:pitching blades in tangential direction
Explanation:
When flow rate is high relative velocity of flow will be more axial. So blade should pitch vertically. If flow rate is low, relative velocity of flow is more tangential. So blades are pitched in tangential direction.

The folding of blades 21 alters the overall geometry of the turbine. As can be seen by comparing FIGs. 2a and 3a, the folding of blades 21 reduces the turbine's exposed cross-section
