The rotor element of the turbine section consists essentially of a shaft and a wheel. The turbine wheel is a dynamically balanced unit consisting of blades attached to a rotating disk. The disk, in turn, is attached to the main power-transmitting shaft of the engine. The exhaust gases leaving the turbine inlet nozzle vanes act on the blades of the turbine wheel, causing the assembly to rotate at a very high rate of speed. 3, record 1, English, - turbine%20wheel

Notons que les roues de turbine comportent un grand nombre d’aubages. […] La géométrie de ces aubes mobiles de turbine est très spécifique, elles sont composées de trois parties principales, à savoir la pale (partie centrale), le pied d’aube et le talon se situant en tête d’aube. Une des fonctions mécaniques de ces aubes de la turbine basse pression est de prélever une partie de l’énergie des gaz de la veine et la transformer en énergie mécanique afin de la transmettre au disque du rotor. 3, record 1, French, - roue%20de%20turbine

Al entrar a la etapa de la turbina, se le permite al aire expandirse y acelerarse a gran velocidad, forzándolo a pasar a través de las paletas de la turbina, lo que provoca que esta gire. La rueda de la turbina está fija a una flecha que a su vez sujeta al compresor, haciendo que este gire. 1, record 1, Spanish, - rueda%20de%20turbina

Les turbines axiales regroupent les Kaplan, les bulbes et les hélices. Ce sont toutes des turbines à réaction. Elles se rencontrent dans les aménagements à forts débits et faible chutes (de 2 à 30 m). De multiples possibilités d’installations existent en fonction de l’aménagement. Les configurations hélice sont rares en petite hydraulique, celle-ci nécessitant un débit quasi constant. On trouve par contre de multiples installations à pales de roue mobiles et distributeur fixe (simple réglage) ou pales de roue et distributeur mobiles (double réglage). Dans les deux cas, ces machines sont peu sensibles aux variations de débit. Leur niveau de rendement mécanique est de l’ordre de 92 % en petite hydraulique (pour autant que leur développement soit issu de travaux en laboratoires). 2, record 3, French, - turbine%20axiale

Les turbo-réacteurs utilisent des turbines axiales ainsi dénommées parce que, comme dans les compresseurs axiaux, l’écoulement de l’air s’effectue dans une direction parallèle à l’axe de la machine. 3, record 3, French, - turbine%20axiale

The turbine-nozzle diaphragm is a series of airfoil-shaped vanes arranged in a ring at the rear of the combustion section of a gas-turbine engine. Its function is to control the speed, direction, and pressure of the hot gases as they enter the turbine. 1, record 4, English, - turbine%2Dnozzle%20diaphragm
