turbine generator
Rotary electricity producer
A turbine generator is a machine that converts the rotational energy of a turbine into electricity.
Steam, water, wind, or gas spins the turbine, which drives a connected generator to produce electric current.
Most large-scale power plants—nuclear, coal, hydroelectric, wind—rely on turbine generators: The dam's turbine generators supply power to three states.
- rotorSpinning mechanical assembly
- statorImmobile motor component
- electricityEnergy from charged particles
- powerEnergy transfer rate
