Alternative Sustainable Energy Resources: Water Turbines Jill Dallmann Everglades University‚ Sarasota Abstract Through years of research and studies‚ renewable and sustainable energy resources have proven to help decrease greenhouse gases that are products of the main current world energy sources. With the rising cost and consumption of petroleum to rise in the future‚ the race to finding sustainable energy is heating up because

Steam Turbines The invention of the water turbine was so successful that eventually‚ the idea came about for extracting power from steam. Steam has one great advantage over water-it expands in volume with tremendous velocity. To be the most effective‚ a steam turbine must run at a very high speed. No wheel made can revolve at any speed approaching the velocity that a steam turbine can. By utilizing the kinetic energy of steam flow‚ the turbine could achieve a higher efficiency. As a result

Making Water Turbines Most Energy Efficient How does a wind turbine’s output vary with wind pressure (height of water)‚ the flow rate‚ size of the motor‚ and type of blade? Introduction There are many types of energy used today: Fossil fuels‚ coal‚ nuclear energy‚ solar energy‚ geothermal energy‚ hydrogen energy‚ hydroelectric energy‚ wind energy‚ and biofuels and biomass. Non-renewable energy sources such as fossil fuels and coal are diminishing since it cannot be recycled‚ unlike wind energy

The Gas Ran Out There was a clown dancing in the mud. Was the clown tickling my feet? Did the clown just pull my hair? I opened my eyes‚ I saw my brother with a huge smile on his face. It was you I thought. "You ready?" my brother asked. "Not really‚ as I can see you barely woke up to." I said. "Actually‚ I got up an hour ago." "Just get out! I need privacy to change!" "What’s privacy?" "Out!" Samuel is my little brother who is a toddler. When my brother got out of my room I quickly changed

Feasibility of Residential Wind Turbines As Americans work to reduce fossil fuel dependence and look to more environmentally friendly energy sources‚ the use of wind energy technology has become the fastest growing segment of the energy market. The feasibility of residential wind turbines mainly comes down to wind resource‚ economic feasibility‚ and consumer acceptance. The use of residential wind turbines is certainly feasible in some areas‚ however; I do not believe they are feasible on a wide-scale
