What is the heat engine?
A heat engine is a system that converts heat to usable energy, particularly mechanical energy, which can then be used to do mechanical work
What type of energy does the steam in a steam turbine have?
It is heat energy. The turbine turns heat energy into mechanical energy.
What is the Water tube boiler design procedure?
You will find it in any mechanical engineering heat transfer book
What can be done to increase the efficiency of the machine?
Mechanical Efficiency is the ratio of Actual mechanical advantage to ideal mechanical advantage.Efficiency will be maximum when Actual mechanical advantage equals that of ideal.But practically not possible.Actual mechanical advantage will be less due to friction,heat,deflection etc.avoiding these loses will increase the machine efficiency.
What is the Significance of brake thermal efficiency?
It is used to evaluate how efficient an engine converts the heat from a fuel to mechanical energy.
What are the practical application Mechanical equivalent of heat?
Check out the fundamental limits of turning Mechanical Energy to Heat energy.
What is physical significance of joule's constant?
It is the mechanical equivalent of heat.
What are examples for mechanical heat energy?
As far as I know, there is no such thing as "mechanical heat energy"; there is mechanical energy, and there is heat energy.
How hot is a joule?
The mechanical equivalent of heat is 4.2 Joules per calorie, so 4.2 Joules can heat 1 gram of water by 1 degree C.
Can heat energy change into mechanical energy?
It will still be heat energy, but it can be converted to mechanical energy
What is a machine that transforms heat into mechanical energy?
The heat engine burns a fuel in order to create heat. This heat is then transferred in mechanical energy which creates motion.
What does the heat does?
Mechanical energy
Are metamorphic rocks formed by some combination of heat pressure and mechanical activity?
Metamorphic rock can be formed a a combination of heat, pressure, and mechanical activity, or by heat, or by pressure from a mechanical activity such as plate motions.
Express 60.1 cal of energy in units of joules?
The mechanical equivalent of heat is 4.2 Joules/calorie, so 60.1 calories = 252.42 Joules
What is the mechanical energy of an object?
Mechanical energy is heat light and kinetic energy but instead of saying something has heat light and kinetic energy we just say mechanical! :)
What is the heat engine?
A heat engine is a system that converts heat to usable energy, particularly mechanical energy, which can then be used to do mechanical work
What does the heat produce?
Mechanical energy
