His Steam Engine costed around £5000
The steam turbine will produce 400 J of output, and the steam engine 250 J. That's what the efficiency figure means.

The weight of a train engine varies depending on the type of engine. A diesel engine can weigh as much as 250 tons while a steam engine would be about 100 tons.
Steam engine advantages Any suitable form of energy can be used to make steam Not affected much by high altitudes Water can be re-used Steam engine disadvantages Has low efficiency, around 30% Are expensive to buy and run Give off a lot of pollution Take time to start Dangerous to use because of high pressure of steam Only 30% of the steam is used Lots of energy is needed to make the steam
How much steam is required to produce 5 MW power in steam turbine?In fully condensing turbine we will need 20 TPH steam required to generate for 5MW
Technically a steam turbine is a particular type of steam engine. A classic steam engine usually refers to a reciprocating steam engine, which uses a piston and crank arrangement, where pressurised steam (from the boiler) forces the piston through its stroke, producing output power. A steam turbine produces power with pressurized steam expanding to high velocity, and impinging on turbine blades which produce rotational output power. A steam turbine can be considered similar to a windmill, although steam turbines typicaly rotate much faster, and often have many stages of steam expansion within a single machine.

Engine horse power depends on many factors except engine size (cc). For example Honda XR650L 650cc produce 32Hp and Honda CBR600rr600cc produce 130Hp.

2-stroke engines produce much more power than 4-stroke.
Coal releases about 14-15,000 btu's of heat per pound. This will on average produce about 12 lbs of high quality superheated steam. With a **steam rate of an engine at about 4 lbs of steam per kilowatt produced, this coal plant can produce about 3 kilowatts per pound of coal burned. So to produce 10 MW of electricity this hypothetical plant will burn about 3,334 lbs. of coal per hour. In a day the coal consumed will be about 80, 000 lbs or 40 tons. *Actual fuel conditions, combustion efficiency, boiler efficiency and engine efficiency would need to be determined for any particular power plant to determine actual coal usage in that plant. **steam rates of different power plants can range from about 3.5 lbs steam/ KW to more than 10 lbs of steam/ KW.
Before the steam engine, the best one could hope for machines in work was wind- or water-mills. The steam engine generated much greater power, allowing not only more reliable results, but longer distances on which that energy could be used.

Yes they do produce a roaring sound of the wind. Yes tornados apparently have a distinctive sound, some have described it as similar to the sound of an old steam engine, but much louder.
