Gas turbines are machines that convert natural gas or other fuels into mechanical energy. They work by drawing in air, compressing it, mixing it with fuel, and igniting the mixture. This process creates high-pressure exhaust gases that spin a turbine, generating power. Gas turbines are commonly used in electricity generation and jet engines. These turbines are known for their efficiency and ability to start quickly, making them ideal for meeting peak energy demands. They are also used in various industries, including aviation and marine applications. Their design allows for reduced emissions compared to traditional fossil fuel power sources.
