Wind turbines are usually 100-120 m high above the ground.The height is usually fixed based on the diameter of the blades.But if the height increses the available wind power increases yielding more power.But the cost also increases.So based on the diameter of blades height is decided.usually for a 80m dia blades the height ranges between 100-120m
High pressure steam hits the blades of a TURBINE and turns its shaft.
when steam flow blockage occured in steam turbine due to damage of blades/nozzles than steam temperature will increase so protect the turbine from high temperature this protection is introduced.
multistage is used because the expansion of high pressure steam will be gradual and as a result the rotor wont vibrate.suppose we have only 1 stage of blades in a turbine, hence all the steam will expand in the given stage and the speed of the rotor will be in high range around 30,000m/s, which is very difficult to control and operate the turbine.
there are stages, fixed blades on the turbine shell and rotating blades on the rotor. They are very close together sooo, because the steam enters at one end of the turbine it heats that area first and it expands the metal there faster than at the other end causing it to rub. if you heat it slowly the turbine casing and the rotor grow at ~ the same rate so the stages don't rub together. If you heat too quickly,by just admitting a high volume of steam, the rotor heats up to fast, because of it has less metal to heat up, it rubs the fixed blades. this is called going long (the rotor is longer than the tolerances between the fixed blades on the casing)
When steam contains liquid droplets while doing work at high temperatures, the water droplets can etch metal. To combat this, steam can be superheated or the pressure of the system is reduced.
The height of a 1 MW wind turbine rotor blade above the ground typically ranges between 150 to 200 feet. This height helps the blades capture more wind energy and generate electricity efficiently.
The height of a wind turbine blade from the ground can vary, but they are often between 200 to 300 feet in height. This height allows the blades to capture wind at higher altitudes where it is stronger and more consistent.

yes
Coal is burned in a furnace, creating high-temperature steam. The steam is directed towards a turbine, causing the turbine blades to spin. As the blades turn, they power a generator which produces electricity.
The number of blades in wind turbine is not determined by aesthetics but by science. The size, shape, solidarity, and positioning is determined by the weather conditions and power output. Current tubbiness include turbines using vortexes (no blades) and high solidarity turbines (12 blades) once popular on farms to pump water.If the model is a replica of actual turbine the number of blades in the model will be the same as the number in the actual unit.

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

To generate electricity from steam, a steam turbine is typically used. High-pressure steam is directed onto the turbine blades, causing the turbine to spin. The spinning turbine is connected to a generator, which converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy.
It is usually a steam turbine that powers a large generator, in which case it is the mechanical force caused by high pressure steam impinging on the turbine blades.
Steam (under pressure) comes into contact with the blades of the turbine through which it is flowing and, by the direct application of force, causes the blades to move, turning the turbine shaft. The turbine coverts the thermal energy of the steam into (rotating) mechanical energy. Surf on over to our friends at Wikipedia using the provided link and get more info. Oh, and check out the pics! Answer it depends what type of turbine one is using types of steam turbine 1 impulse turbine 2 reaction turbine in 1 st one steam is completely expanded inside nozzle and all pressure energy get converted in to kinetic energy using this impulse force turbine runs. in 2nd steam is multiple stage blades are used where high pressure superheated steam gets expanded inside the turbine in each stage and after each stage velocity of steam increases. very high temperature superheated steam is reaquired because it has very high specific volume which helps in reducing mass flow rate of steam.
