Water wheels are machines that use the energy of flowing or falling water or both to turn a wheel. The axle of the turning wheel can then power other machines to do work. Water wheels were used throughout Europe during the Middle Ages approximately 500 to 1500 as the main source of power for driving large machines.

The higher the dam the farther the water falls and the more power it has. Scientists would say that the power of falling water is quotdirectly proportionalquot to the distance it falls. In other words water falling twice as far has twice as much energy. Amount of Water Falling. More water falling through the turbine will produce more power.

Some water wheels are fed by water from a mill pond which is formed when a flowing stream is dammed. A channel for the water flowing to or from a water wheel is called a mill race. The race bringing water from the mill pond to the water wheel is a headrace the one carrying water after it has left the wheel is commonly referred to as a tailrace.
