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.
What is the Maximum efficiency machine?
The electric space heater. It's the only common machine that's 100% efficient.
What are the capacity of Steam Turbines?
The capacity of each steam turbines has more than 530 GW in over 6000 installed units. The steam turbines provide high reliability and sustained high efficiency.
What is the necessary of compounding in turbines?
compounding of turbines is necessary to make the turbines practically controllable.If compounding is not done the size of the turbine will be huge.Hence by pressure &velocity compounding the turbine becomes small in size &its velocity is also becomes controllable.
What is your opinion Of the screw as a lifting device?
Even the best screws only have a mechanical advantage of twenty percent. Therefore, the screw is not a very efficient lifting device.
Why are wind turbines not 100 percent efficient?
In any machine some energy is always lost as heat. In a wind turbine most of this will be created by friction between parts.
Is a nuclear generator 100 percent efficient?
No, no machine is 100% efficient.
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.
How efficient is a small space heater?
it is not very efficientAnswerThey are 100 percent efficient.
Are electric heaters 100 percent efficient?
No. Nothing is 100 percent efficient. In any situation some energy will be given off in a form that is useless to us.
Explain why machines are not 100 percent efficient?
because they are not proper
When will frictionless engine be 100 percent efficient?
at 0'kelvin
What heat dissipation mechanism is lost when humidity approaches 100 percent?
Sweating is no longer efficient near 100 percent humidity.
Why are no machines 100 percent efficient?
Some energy is lost to friction.
What does it mean to say a radio is not 100 percent efficient?
Play a play a game
Why aren't machines 100 percent efficient?
becaus ethey have friction
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.
