Turbine efficiency

Turbine efficiency measures how effectively a turbine converts the energy in a fluid, like steam or wind, into useful mechanical power. It compares the actual power produced to the maximum possible power the fluid could deliver if it were fully utilized, without any losses. High efficiency means more of the fluid’s energy is converted into useful work, reducing waste and improving performance. Factors like design, material quality, and operational conditions influence turbine efficiency, which is essential for optimizing energy production and reducing costs in power plants and other systems.
