Turbiini
Turbiini is a device that converts energy in a moving fluid into mechanical power by rotating a shaft equipped with blades. The working fluid can be steam, hot gas, air, or water. Turbines are designed to extract energy efficiently while controlling speed and load, and they drive generators, aircraft engines, ships, and industrial machinery.
Common types are steam turbines, gas turbines, hydro turbines, and wind turbines. Steam turbines use expanding
Most large power turbines are axial-flow, with multiple stages; radial-flow designs occur in smaller machines. Two
History: The steam turbine was advanced in the late 19th century by engineers such as Charles Parsons.
Performance and use: In power generation, steam and gas turbines underpin thermal plants and combined-cycle systems,
