Turbine
A turbine is a rotary engine that extracts energy from a fluid flow. Claude Burdin (1788-1873) coined the term from the Latin turbinis, or vortex during an 1828 engineering competition. Benoit Fourneyron (1802-1867), a student of Claude Burdin, built the first practical water turbine. The simplest turbines have one moving part, a rotor assembly, which is a shaft with blades attached. Moving fluid acts on the blades, or the blades react to the flow, so that they rotate and impart energy to the rotor. Early turbine examples are windmills and water wheels.Gassteam, and water turbines usually have a casing around the blades that focuses and controls the fluid. The casing and blades may have variable geometry that allows efficient operation for a range of fluid-flow conditions. A device similar to a turbine but operating in reverse is a compressor or pump. The axial compressor in many gas turbine engines is a common example.

Turbine
Eine Turbine (lat. turbare, drehen) ("Kreiselmaschine") ist eine Fluidenergiemaschine, die die kinetische Energie von Fluiden (Flüssigkeiten und Gase) in Dreh- oder Rotationsenergie umwandelt; sie sind damit zu den Strömungsmaschinen zu zählen. Turbinen gehören zu den größten von Menschen entworfenen Maschinen überhaupt; ihre mechanisch nutzbare Leistung kann bis zu 1,5 Gigawatt (2 Millionen PS) betragen. Umgangssprachlich wird der Begriff "Turbine" -fälschlich- auch für Gasturbinen und insbesondere Fluggasturbinen/Strahltriebwerke verwendet.

Turbina
Turbina (z łac. turbo, burza, trąba powietrzna) – silnik przepływowy wykorzystujący energię przepływającego płynu lub gazu do wytwarzania energii mechanicznej. Elementem wirnika oddziałującym z płynem są w specjalnie ukształtowane łopatki.
