![]() ![]() Gas, steam, and water turbines have a casing around the blades that contains and controls the working fluid. Early turbine examples are windmills and waterwheels. Moving fluid acts on the blades so that they move and impart rotational energy to the rotor. A turbine is a turbomachine with at least one moving part called a rotor assembly, which is a shaft or drum with blades attached. The work produced can be used for generating electrical power when combined with a generator. A turbine ( / ˈ t ɜːr b aɪ n/ or / ˈ t ɜːr b ɪ n/) (from the Greek τύρβη, tyrbē, or Latin turbo, meaning vortex) is a rotary mechanical device that extracts energy from a fluid flow and converts it into useful work. ![]()
