A beam engine is a kind of steam engine where a pivoted overhead beam is used to apply the force from a vertical piston to a vertical connecting rod.

An engine is used to lift a beam weighing 9800 n up to 145 m how much work must the engine do to lift this beam?

WORKAn engine is used to lift a beam weighing 9800 n up to 145 m how much work must the engine do to lift this beam?Solution1.This is what you know:force: F =9800 n distance: d =145 m2.This is what you need to find out:work: W = ? J3.This is the procedure you need to use:Substitute the known values f= 9800 n and d = 145 m into the work equation:W = Fd = (9800 N)(145 m) = N·m = 1421000 J4.Check your answer:Check your answer by dividing the work you calculated by the distance given in the problem. The result should be the force given in the problem.

Walking beam mechanism?

A primitive form of steam engine (stationary and marine) dating from Newcomen and Watt! It has been argued that walking beam is a corruption of working beam as this is how the engine works or functions. there is a diamond shaped walking beam (steel in modern (they are long obsolete) ones and one or two cylinders and pistons. Steam is admitted to the the cylinder the piston (and the beam ) tilts up gravity valves trip on the opposite cyoinder and the process repeats itself. a walking beam engine can have a flywheel as the marine types would (the ships"s paddle wheels) or it oculd be uswed to operate pumps where it would be direct action on and off. they have been auxioliary powered by other means (su8c has diesels) and sre still in use on Oil wells pumping up thick crude oil- quite a profitabole venture inthe Middle east. There is also a walking beam esapement on some timepieces that i s sometimng else and would be very difficult to describe without illustrations.
