How is potential energy changed into electricity?
For example, in a hydroelectric dam, water makes a turbine move; the turbine makes a generator move, the generator generates the electricity.For example, in a hydroelectric dam, water makes a turbine move; the turbine makes a generator move, the generator generates the electricity.For example, in a hydroelectric dam, water makes a turbine move; the turbine makes a generator move, the generator generates the electricity.For example, in a hydroelectric dam, water makes a turbine move; the turbine makes a generator move, the generator generates the electricity.
Why would a turbine be used instead of a water wheel?
a turbine would be used instead of a water wheel because a turbine does not use as much energy and it uses the wind to generate it.
What is the name given to electricity generated by water moving through a turbine?
Hydroelectric energy is created by water powering a turbine.
How do you can control water turbine?
Well Really It Would Depend On What Type Of Water Turbine You HAd Yuo Should Contact The Manufacturer.
Is a water turbine a wind powered thing?
No it is powered by water. The flow of the water generates electricity. A wind turbine uses the wind to generate the electricity
What is the Tangential flow in turbine?
When flow of water on turbine is tangential, flow is tangential flow
A source of warm water is called a?
Turbine
How does steam turbine works?
Steam or water, it works the reverse of a fan, where the fan pushes air down, the turbine is turned by the steam or water. there's a shaft leading from the turbine to the generator, which produces the electricity
How does the water turbine do what it does?
Water traels thru a pipe called a penstock then hits a turbine and the force makes the turbine spin. The energy created travels thru copper coil and goes to the generator. the water meanwhile goes to the river
What is a kind of engine that uses water steam or heat that starts with tur?
The word is "turbine".
