What else can I help you with?
What device has fanlike blades that converts energy from various sources to electrical energy?
A wind turbine has fan-like blades that convert wind energy into electrical energy.
Should blades on a wind turbine face flat into the wind or should they be at an angle?
Blades on a wind turbine should be at an angle to the wind, not flat, to generate lift like an airplane wing and turn the turbine. This angle is called the pitch angle and is adjusted to optimize energy production based on wind speed and direction.
What is different about how the windmill and the wind turbine moves?
A windmill operates by converting wind energy into mechanical energy, typically for tasks like grinding grain. Its blades turn a rotor linked to machinery. In contrast, a wind turbine generates electricity by turning a generator using wind energy, with blades designed for maximum efficiency.
What part of a wind turbine provides motion to convert into electricity?
The rotor blades of a wind turbine are responsible for capturing the kinetic energy from the wind and spinning a rotor connected to a generator. This motion is then converted into electricity through the generator, which produces electrical power.
Is a wind turbine an example of sound energy?
No, a wind turbine is an example of mechanical energy as it produces electricity through the kinetic energy of wind turning the turbine blades. Sound energy refers to energy produced by vibrations traveling through a medium like air, not energy generated by movement.
How the water turbine blades from hydro power?
when water passes thru a dam, it turns the turbine blades, the turbine blades turn a huge metal rod like stick and the rod turns and powers an generator.
What do the blades of a wind turbine look like?
They look like propellers, or fans.
What device has fanlike blades that converts energy from various sources to electrical energy?
A wind turbine has fan-like blades that convert wind energy into electrical energy.
The rotor blades of a wind turbine are like the wings of a?

How does a Ljungstrom steam turbine work and look like?
Ljungstrom Turbine is a Radial Outflow Steam Turbine with two counter rotating discs. Blades are mounted in circles one bigger than the other. Blades of one rotor work as nozzles for the other rotor blades. This turbine design is very forgiving on wet steam. It is said that the turbine design had limitations on scaling up above 30 MW and hence could not compete with Axial Flow Turbines.
Should blades on a wind turbine face flat into the wind or should they be at an angle?
Blades on a wind turbine should be at an angle to the wind, not flat, to generate lift like an airplane wing and turn the turbine. This angle is called the pitch angle and is adjusted to optimize energy production based on wind speed and direction.
Why there is no use of saltwater to produce electricity?
in hydroelectric generation system.you use a turbine which have many blades like wings,water comes from the nozzels to the blades and blades are made by an mettalic material,if you use the salted water there will be more rusting.
What are the five parts of the wind turbine?
Tower, blades, nacelle (casing around the inside parts of the turbine), hub (the front of the nacelle/looks like the centre of the blades), gear box transmission (not needed or included in all wind turbines), generator (to turn the electricty from kinetic to electrical).
What does turbines mean?
A wind turbine is like a giant fan that produces energy from the wind
Turbine blade materials?
I'm sure they are proprietary, but based on something like inconel. Oh, just saw this was under WIND power. I was thinking gas or steam turbine. Wind turbine blades are generally composites. Fiberglass/epoxy or carbon fiber/epoxy layups, like airplane propellers.
What kind of materials make good wind turbine blades?
Ideally, they should be constructed of light weight materials like reinforced aluminum
What do the rotor blades of a wind turbine look like?
Log onto "google" click on "images" at the top of the screen "type in "windmill" then send.
