Turbine–electric powertrain
Propulsion method using hot gas rotor to generate current for traction motors
Turbine–electric powertrain
A turbine–electric transmission, or turbine–electric powertrain, system includes a turboshaft gas turbine connected to an electrical generator, creating electricity that powers electric traction motors. No clutch is required. Turbine–electric transmissions are used to drive both gas turbine locomotives (rarely) and warships.
