The Pelton Wheel is a type of water turbine used to generate electricity from high-pressure water sources. It consists of a wheel with spoon-shaped buckets attached around its circumference. As water jets strike these buckets, the force of the water causes the wheel to spin, converting kinetic energy into mechanical energy. This turbine is particularly effective in locations with steep terrain and fast-flowing water, such as rivers or waterfalls. The design allows for efficient energy capture, making the Pelton Wheel a popular choice in hydroelectric power plants, where it contributes to renewable energy production.
