Turbine

What do we mean by turbine?

Any of various machines in which the kinetic energy of a moving fluid is converted to mechanical power by the impulse or reaction of the fluid with a series of buckets, paddles, or blades arrayed about the circumference of a wheel or cylinder. noun

A pair of turbines fastened on one shaft, either back to back or face to face, an arrangement which balances the pressure due to the weight of the driving water-column, and releases the stresses on the footsteps or thrust-bearings: usual in modern high-powered installations. noun

A water-wheel driven by the impact or reaction of a flowing stream of water, or by impact and reaction combined. noun

A water wheel, commonly horizontal, variously constructed, but usually having a series of curved floats or buckets, against which the water acts by its impulse or reaction in flowing either outward from a central chamber, inward from an external casing, or from above downward, etc.; -- also called turbine wheel. noun

A type of rotary engine with a set of rotating vanes, diagonally inclined and often curved, attached to a central spindle, and obtaining its motive force from the passage of a fluid, as water, steam, combusted gases, or air, over the vanes. Water turbines are frequently used for generating power at hydroelectric power stations, and steam turbines are used for generating power from coal- or oil-fired electric power stations. Turbines are also found in jet engines, and in some automobile engines. noun

Any of various rotary machines that use the kinetic energy of a continuous stream of fluid (a liquid or a gas) to turn a shaft noun

Rotary engine in which the kinetic energy of a moving fluid is converted into mechanical energy by causing a bladed rotor to rotate noun

Any of various rotary machines that use the kinetic energy of a continuous stream of fluid (a liquid or a gas) to turn a shaft.

A machine where the kinetic energy of matter is converted to mechanical power by the impulse or reaction of the matter with a series of buckets, paddles, or blades located around the circumference of a wheel or cylinder...... Also, Pianos and Organs are the same shit. Urban Dictionary

A fully functioning part of an MMORPG that is broken by inept developers upon release of new content that should otherwise have no effect on what was broken. The expected and normal occurrence for players of a Boston based Online Game development company when players encounter a a fix to the game that breaks 4 things for every one it fixes. Broken fucking content in your fucking game that had nothing to do with the content they released, yet somehow they broke it because they won't pull the boss's dick out of their mouth long enough to stand up and tell him the content is broken. Game developers that are more fucking interested in making junk and broken code because they are apparently attempting to code a game when they are fucking drunk and/or too busy T bagging their Executive producer to make sure they don't break anything unrelated to their work.

The state of being extremely high and/or stoned. Urban Dictionary

Turban over metal exoskeletan Urban Dictionary

(v) - Taking a seven year old music system and revamping it in such a way that it breaks the volume balance between instruments, breaks the sound quality of individual instruments and renders the ability to play large ensemble pieces largely impossible. To be Turbined is to have your transcribed songs *trashed* due to someone's bright idea to release half-assed code into the live game you are still wacky enough to pay for. Turbined - the best way to kill a game. Urban Dictionary

I'm sorry, I'm sick of nobody knowing anything. A turbine is a rotary device which converts kinetic fluid energy into mechanical energy. This INCLUDES windmills, also known as WIND TURBINES. A moving fluid (steam, air, water, oil, gas) strikes the blades of a turbine which are mounted on a common shaft and causes the shaft to turn. A turbine can be the Francis wheel of a dam's power station, it can be the rotor of a "windmill" at Altamont Pass, it can be the exhaust-driven wheel in your car's turbocharger which spins the compressor, it can be part of a jet engine. Your car's automatic transmission has a turbine in it; the impeller in the torque converter driven by the engine forces oil against the blades of a turbine, causing it to turn and driving the rest of the car's driveline.
