WHAT’S WATER ENERGY???
The flowing water winds up the wheels
and by this way water energy is obtained.
WATER ENERGY İS CONVERTED TO ELECTRİC ENERGY…. HYDROELECTRİC PLANTS
For centuries, it’s benefited from flowing water to run machines and mills and wind up water wheels . But nowadays, water energy is not used directly. It’s converted to hydroelectric energy and then used.
The hydroelectric plants convert the power of flowing water to electric. The amount of energy which is in flowing water is formed by the flow or fall speed of the water. The flowing water in a big river has a high amount of energy.
HOW İS İT CONVERTED???
The flowing or falling water is taken into
water-channel or pipes and flows to the turbines and provides the arms of the
turbines. Turbines are connected with the
generators and they convert mechanical energy to electric energy.
