This route is expensive, since a new (upflowed) turbine system (and possibly a larger IP compressor) is also required.

For maximum power and efficiency, the turbine system is designed such that the water-jet velocity is twice the velocity of the bucket.

Another turbine starter system is almost exactly like a little engine.

Owing to the additional expansion in the turbine system, the residual energy in the exhaust jet is low.

Residual thrust on a turboshaft is avoided by further expansion in the turbine system and/or truncating and turning the exhaust 180 degrees, to produce two opposing jets.

This clever turbine system allows a certain amount of overboost, giving an extra 10% or so of torque for short periods.

The Mack Truck company, decades ago, developed a turbine system that converted waste heat into kinetic energy that it fed back into the engine's transmission.

The boat, a catamaran, is powered by twin marine turbine systems, each of which runs at 6,000 kilowatts or 8,000 horsepower.

Particularly with small run-of-the-river plants, the flat efficiency curve yields better annual performance than other turbine systems, as small rivers' water is usually lower in some months.

The mill was primarily used for grinding corn meal and hulling oats, using a 20-foot overshot water wheel, and later switching to a turbine system.
