Hydraulic Turbine Generator

The Hydro Turbine Generator is a device that converts the energy from moving water into power. Hydro Turbine is additionally called a water turbine. Hydro Turbine generators are often effectively using a vast array of water sources: a small stream, a quickly flowing river, a waterfall, a lake, and even from the oceans. There are many various sizes and designs of hydro turbines, each developed from differently tested strategies for collecting the energy from a water source. If correct conditions are met for a hydro turbine generator to be constructed and used, electricity may be obtained efficiently, cleanly, and for an occasional cost.

Hydraulic turbines convert hydraulic energy or we will say that energy of water (kinetic and pressure energy of water) into energy. This energy is further wont to drive a generator which converts it into power. The fundamental concept of this kind of turbine is that water flowing from a dam generates a pressure force while passing through the turbine. This pressure force is used to rotate the turbine which further rotates the generator and convert hydraulic energy into power.
