ues it can be compressed
What else can I help you with?
Steam can be compressed while ice can not why?
Ice is a solid and steam is a gas
Why steam engines have high starting torque?
in steam engines, the steam has to be compressed, which needs less torque than the internal combustion engine, where fuel air mixture is compressed Hence, the case!
What are Things which can run with steam?
Steam trains, wheels, pistons, anything to do with pressure actually. Although steam is weaker than compressed air.
Is superheated steam compressible?
Not a hydrologist, but I'd lay money on the fact that steam is mostly air, and ice is mostly water.
Did ancient Greece invent the steam engine?
Yes, the first person to harness the power of steam was the Greek scientist Heron of Alexandria in the first century A.D. He developed several devices that were operated by water, steam, or compressed air, including a fountain, a fire engine, and the steam engine.
Why steam can be compressed while ice cannot?
sream is water particles in air, when compressed, the air is squeezed out. Ice can compress a little - when water freezes, it expands. People have used this to split stone. For example, to get the blocks for ancient Egyptian sculpture they would carve around the part the wanted, add water and let the overnight freeze break out the rest.
What Difference between the old and the modern engines?
Depending on how old, old engines run on compressed steam, new engines run on a mixture of petroleum and air (atmospheric).
What is high pressure and where is it located?
This question is so broadly based there is no way to answer except high pressure is higher than low pressure. High pressure can be found anywhere. The Hot Water in a tea kettle , the steam in a steam iron, the compressed air in a compressor.
What types of fuels are used to power cars.?
gasoline, diesel, CNG (compressed natural gas), Propane (forklifts-not normally cars), Hydrogen gas, coal/wood for steam powered cars.
Which two men were responsible for the steam engine?
The first person to harness the power of steam was the Greek scientist Heron of Alexandria in the first century A.D. He developed several devices that were operated by water, steam, or compressed air, including a fountain, a fire engine, and the steam engine. The steam engine was significantly improved in 1711 by Englishman Thomas Newcomen (1663-1729), who created a machine that used steam to pump water. The Scottish inventor James Watt (1736-1819) substantially improved on Newcomen's model and patented (received exclusive rights to make, use, and sell) his own steam engine in 1769.
What is compressed marble?
compressed marble
Do Tesla turbines work with steam?
yes, a good place to go for practical help on building one is to mail order an instructional manual from Camden Miniature Steam, in the UK:www.camdenmin.co.UKthe same basic design can be adapted to run on compressed air, steam, or even as a combustion engine.Respectively, the material requirements differ for each:a compressed air model can be built using DVD discs i.e better able than a cdrom for surviving the high rotational speeds;a steam one, I attempted by using precision discs out of an old computer mainframe from the 80's; anda combustion model would need to have its discs made from steel etc in order to be able to survive the ignition temperatures
