The document discusses different types of turbines used to convert energy into rotating mechanical energy to generate electricity. It focuses on gas turbines, which have three main sections - a compressor that sucks in and compresses air, a combustor where fuel is burned using the compressed air, and a turbine where the kinetic energy of the hot gases causes the turbine blades to rotate and power the shaft. Gas turbines can be classified based on their combustion process, the path of the working substance, the direction of expanding gases, and the direction of gas flow. They have applications in jet engines, marine propulsion, supercharging, railways, power generation, and industry.

10. Gas Turbine
The compressor sucks the air from the atmosphere and compresses it
and guides it to the combustion chamber.

11. Gas Turbine
 This is an annular chamber where the fuel burns and is similar to the
furnace in a boiler. The air from the compressor is the Combustion air.

12. Gas Turbine
 Stationary guide vanes of turbine direct the gases to the next set of blades
 The kinetic energy of the hot gases impacting on the blades rotates the
blades and the shaft.
