Turbine

   Moving fluid kinetic energy
Mechanical power conversion
Internal cylinder blade array

B ehind the aviation building on campus is a collection of seemingly random aircraft artifacts. This turbine extracted from an engine assembly is the item that most caught my eye. I tried to photograph it from the rear exhaust port looking up into the blades, but the light angle was uncooperative. From a different perspective, this shot of the side casing is reasonably successful.
