Thoma

Cross Flow

Turgo

Pit

Axial Flow

Fancis / Mixed

Water Wheel

Pelton

Propeller

Many different kinds of turbines

Bigger and BIGGER..

Then they built dams

inside the dam wall

and put the water wheel

using the force of the water flow,

But: dams cause problems

so, they put the turbines

next to the river

and use coal for steam from the river water

But: coal cause problems…

rivers

Next to…
