Example embodiments are directed to shrouded fluid turbines that include a turbine shroud and a rotor. The turbine shroud includes a plurality of mixer elements and the rotor can be disposed within the turbine shroud. The shrouded fluid turbine further includes a hybrid yaw system having a passive yaw system and an active yaw system for regulating a yaw of the shrouded fluid turbine. The hybrid yaw system further includes a torque limiter. Example embodiments are also directed to methods of yawing a shrouded fluid turbine. Example embodiments are further directed to hybrid yaw systems for a shrouded fluid turbine that includes a shrouded fluid turbine assembly rotationally engaged with a tower. The hybrid yaw system includes a passive yaw system and an active yaw system associated with the shrouded fluid turbine.
