How come some turbines can take 20 percent of co2 with 80 percent methane while other turbines ask for 100 percent methane?

It Just depends on who Built the Turbine, far-en turbines use more co2 than turbines made near you.

Why are wind turbines not 100 percent efficient?

Wind turbines are not 100% efficient due to factors such as air resistance, mechanical losses in the turbine components, inefficiencies in the generator, and variability in wind speed. The Betz limit also imposes a theoretical maximum efficiency of 59.3% for converting kinetic energy in the wind into mechanical energy.


Is a nuclear generator 100 percent efficient?

No, nuclear generators are not 100 percent efficient. They typically have an efficiency rate of around 30-40%, which means that 30-40% of the energy from the nuclear reactions is converted into electricity, while the rest is lost as heat.


Why are no machines 100 percent efficient?

Some energy is lost to friction.


Why aren't machines 100 percent efficient?

Are turbines more efficient than gasoline engines?

By a generous estimate, they can be about 30% more efficient than a gasoline engine. I assume you mean "are turbines more efficient than piston engines". Depends on the running conditions. At full load, steady running conditions, turbines are better than piston Engines. At varying loads, turbines often do quite poorly.


Are transformers 100 percent efficient?

No because it will lose electron by core losses and winding losses


What are some reason that machines are not 100 percent efficient?

Are electric heaters 100 percent efficient?

No, electric heaters are not 100 percent efficient. While they convert all the electricity they consume into heat, some heat can still be lost through the material of the heater itself, especially if it is not well insulated. Also, some heat may escape into the surrounding environment instead of heating the intended space.


Why 100 percent heat not convert in mechanical work in engine?

No engine is 100% efficient: there is always some loss of energy between input and output.
