What electrical component would be like a water driven wheel on an old mill?
An electrical component that functions similarly to a water-driven wheel on an old mill is a turbine connected to a generator. The turbine, akin to the water wheel, harnesses energy (such as wind or water) to rotate, which then drives the generator to produce electricity. This is commonly seen in hydroelectric or wind power generation systems.
Which process could be compared to how rushing steam turns a water wheel?
The process of rushing steam turning a water wheel can be compared to the concept of using a turbine to convert kinetic energy into mechanical energy. In this case, the steam would be the source of the kinetic energy, which is then harnessed to turn the water wheel, similar to how a turbine harnesses energy to generate electricity.
working of hydroelectric power plants?
This question is vague, but here is the way hydro-electric power plants work. Moving water turns a wheel or a turbine. The shaft of the water wheel or turbine is connected to an electric generator. As the generator spins, it produces electric energy. The efficiency of this system depends on the speed of the water past the turbine blades. Efficiency can be increased, and more power produced, if the water speed is increased. A large dam can put the turbine blades several hundred feet below the surface of the lake and increase water speed. A slow moving river can be used to produce electric power, but the main blade of the turbine (water wheel) has to be very large to produce torque. The shaft of the generator would be coupled to the large water-wheel through a set of gears that would increase the speed of the turbine shaft. The electric generator has fixed magnets or electro-magnets installed on the rotor (part that spins). The stator (wire windings in the shell) produce electricity when the magnetic field from the rotor passes near them.
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.
Why would a turbo not spoil on a 6.6 duramax?
Exhaust leak, damaged compressor/turbine wheel or a fault vgt turbo.
Why would you not heat the steam coming out of turbine and feedback to turbine?
Steam is redirected back into the boiler from the high-pressure turbine for reheating, but the steam from the low-pressure turbine enters into a condenser to become water again.
What would happen to the rotation speed of the water wheel If distance is reduced?
If the distance from the water source to the water wheel is reduced, the rotation speed of the wheel would likely increase. This is because the water would flow more freely and quickly to the wheel, providing a greater volume and pressure of water that can drive the wheel. Consequently, the increased water flow would enhance the wheel's ability to rotate faster, assuming other factors, such as the wheel's design and water flow rate, remain constant.
What happen when the input force is applied on the axle instead of the wheel?
The wheel and axle would be multiplying distance.
What device was developed to harness the power of moving water?
The device developed to harness the power of moving water is called a water turbine. Water turbines are mechanical devices that convert the energy from flowing or falling water into rotational mechanical energy. This energy can then be used to drive machinery or generate electricity in hydroelectric power plants. Water turbines come in various types such as Pelton, Francis, and Kaplan turbines, each designed for different water flow and head conditions.
Would a turbine be a chemical or physical change?
Turbine is not a change, a turbine is a mechanical device.
How do you produce electricity living in mountains?
solar wind hydro are all possibilities if living in the mountains. Maybe solar is not the best but a wind turbine or water turbine would be possible. Depends on where you live and is water available is it windy etc
What would happen if cars would use water instead of gas?
we would run out of water quicker
