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.
Gas Turbine. Gas turbines provide a means of transferring energy from a pressurized fluid to mechanical energy in the form of a rotating shaft. The gas turbine compresses ambient air in a compressor and then channels the compressed air into a combustion chamber.
