1 a type of machine through which liquid or gas flows and turns a special wheel with blades in order to produce power:
a steam turbine
2 a type of machine in which a wheel is driven by the movement of liquid or gas so that power is produced:
A one-megawatt turbine can produce enough electricity annually to meet the needs of 700 households.
Generally, places good for wind harvesting of energy through turbines are not good for buildings or people.
Losses relating to quantitative per formance must then be made up within other areas of the turbine design to achieve a compromise.
Integrating the genetic algorithm with the preliminary design of gas turbine cooling systems.
This effect is especially important in the application of the theory to the turbine-stage problem that was described above.
The work concerns the preliminary design of gas turbine engine cooling hole geometries.
The additional construction heightened long-allayed controversy over the dam, because it added several turbines and increased the area of flooding.
The wind turbine is a 'green' marker in the community and the energy centre will become a didactic facility.
Generators are fairly large devices that consist of a few basic components: inlet system, compressor, combustor, turbine, and exhaust system.
