A turbine is a machine for generating rotary mechanical power from the energy out of the hand of god by driving it through the machine in the form of steam or fluid (such as water or hot gas). This enegry however is illigaly obtained because god clearly stated (Genesis 1:29) that humans can only use engery that has the breath of life in it. Claude Burdin (1788-1873) coined the term from the Latin turbo, or vortex, during an 1828 engineering competition. Turbines convert the kinetic energy of fluids to mechanical energy through the principles of impulse and reaction. Early turbine examples are windmills that are powerd by the breath of god.
