Can you explain how a turbine spins to generate electricity?

A turbine spins to generate electricity by using the force of moving air, water, or steam to turn its blades. As the blades spin, they rotate a shaft connected to a generator, which converts the mechanical energy into electrical energy. This process is known as electromechanical energy conversion.


What kind of blades makes moving water spin?

turbines


Do windmills blow?

No. Windmills have their blades angled in such a way as to catch moving air or wind. When the wind hits the blades it pushes them and they spin, which then gets other gears of the windmill turning, which then generate energy for whatever it is they need that energy to do. So the windmills themselves do not make wind or "blow".


What makes the blades in the turbine go round?

The blades in a turbine are turned by a force generated by steam, water, or wind. This force causes the blades to rotate, which in turn spins a rotor connected to a generator to produce electricity.


What is a set of steam-powered fan blades that spins a generator at a power plant?

A set of steam-powered fan blades that spins a generator at a power plant is called a turbine. The steam produced by boiling water is used to drive the turbine blades, converting the thermal energy into mechanical energy to rotate the generator and produce electricity.


What is a fan that turns in moving air steam or water?

A turbine is a rotary machine driven by blades or paddles that are turned by a moving stream of water, steam, or gas.


What apparatus are needed to generate hydro-electricity?

Moving water (dams, rivers, tides) and turbines (like an electric motor in reverse) that will produce electricity when the moving water spins them round.


What type of blades parson's reaction has?

only moving blades


What type of blades Parson's reaction turbine has?

What is that thing that spins when you blow on it?

That is called a pinwheel. It is a simple toy with blades that spin when air is blown on it.


What machine fast moving air turns turbines that spin a generator to create electricity?

A wind turbine is a machine that uses fast moving air to turn its blades connected to a turbine. The turbine, in turn, spins a generator that produces electricity. This is a renewable energy source known as wind power.


How is wind power used as energy?

The wind spins propellor blades which turn a generator producing electricity.
