hydroelectric turbine

A hydroelectric turbine is a machine that converts the energy of flowing or falling water into mechanical energy, which is then transformed into electricity. When water moves through a dam or penstock, it hits the turbine blades, causing them to spin. This spinning motion drives a generator that produces electrical power. Hydroelectric turbines are efficient and rely on the natural movement of water, making them a renewable and clean energy source. They play a key role in supplying electricity to homes and industries, leveraging the power of water in rivers or reservoirs.
