What else can I help you with?
What are the jobs that steam engines did?
Steam engines and steam pumps performed and still perform any jobs presently performed by internal combustion engines, or electric motors. Except aircraft engines, (they and the necessary boilers are too heavy to fly). Locomotives, pumping, generating electricity, automobiles, industrial machinery...etc..
Do they still make steam engines?
Yes, turbines used today are radial steam engines.
Where are steam engines most widely used?
I believe steam engines are still widely used in China
Are steam engines still being used?
Steam engines presently produce more power than all other types of engines combined. Most steam engines take the form of the steam turbine engine. The steam turbine is responsible for generating about 86% of the electric power used on this planet. Reciprocating steam engines are still in use for limited applications, but are generally considered obsolete. Steam engines, either the piston or turbine type were used on most big ships until recently, and there are still a few steam locomotives about.
What year exactly did they stop using the steam engines and start using diesel?
There are still ships using steam engines. So, The correct answer is not yet
Do we still use steam engines in modern technology and industries today?
Yes, steam engines are still used in some modern industries and technologies, particularly in power generation and certain types of transportation.
Did they use steam trains in 1948?
Yes, steam engines were still very much in use in 1948, however diesel electric engines were gradually coming to most railroads.
What kind of steam engines are used in power stations?
Coal fired steam driven power stations are still in use
When did steam engines stop in UK?
Steam engines began to decline in the UK in the mid-20th century, with the last steam locomotives in regular service on British Railways being phased out by the late 1960s. The final steam-hauled passenger service occurred on August 11, 1968. However, some steam engines have been preserved and are still in operation for heritage and tourist railways.
Are steam engines still used in modern industries and transportation systems?
Yes, steam engines are still used in some modern industries and transportation systems, particularly in heritage railways, steamboats, and certain industrial applications where steam power is preferred. However, they are not as commonly used as they were in the past due to the widespread adoption of more efficient and advanced technologies such as diesel engines and electric motors.
Are steamships used now?
They have not been used since the early 1830s. Look up the Clearmont steam boat, it was the best one made.
Can planes still fly if they landed in the water safely?
If there is no parts of an aircraft damaged or broken so yes they can still fly but people have to fix the engines.
