Impulsioturbiineja
Impulsioturbiineja, often translated as impulse turbines, are a type of turbomachine where the working fluid's pressure remains constant as it passes through the turbine rotor. Instead, the fluid's velocity is increased before entering the rotor, and this kinetic energy is then converted into mechanical work by the rotor. The flow of fluid is typically directed through nozzles, which accelerate the fluid and direct it onto the turbine blades at an optimal angle.
The fundamental principle of an impulse turbine is the change in momentum of the fluid. As the
A classic example of an impulse turbine is the Pelton turbine, commonly used in hydroelectric power generation
