Part of the Hardware glossary: A turbine is a machine that transforms rotational energy from a fluid that is picked up by a rotor system into usable work or energy. Turbines achieve this either through mechanical gearing or electromagnetic induction to produce electricity. Types of turbines include steam turbines, wind turbines, gas turbines or water turbines. Mechanical uses of turbine power go back to ancient Greece.
A wind turbine is a device that converts kinetic energy from the wind into electrical power. The term appears to have migrated from parallel hydroelectric technology (rotary propeller).The technical description for this type of machine is an aerofoil-powered generator.ind turbines convert wind energy to electricity for distribution. Conventional horizontal axis turbines can be divided into three components: 1  The rotor component, which is approximately 20% of the wind turbine cost, includes the blades for converting wind energy to low speed rotational energy.
