Heat Engine Heat Engine
The answer is heat engine.
an elecric heater uses the conversion of electrical energy into heat energy.
Heat energy is released in a heat engine when fuel is burned. The heat energy is then changed into mechanical energy.
Heat energy to kinetic energy
A heat engine is a system that converts heat to usable energy, particularly mechanical energy, which can then be used to do mechanical work
The heat engine burns a fuel in order to create heat. This heat is then transferred in mechanical energy which creates motion.
Chemical Energy ---> Heat Energy ---> Mechanical Energy
Heat engines work on the principle of internal combustion. Due to this total work in is not equal to work out by the engine. This difference is dissipated out in the surrounding as heat. This energy is just waste and in any system complete conversion of energy is never possible.
Energy conversion efficiency is the ratio between the useful output of an energy conversion machine and the input, in energy terms. The useful output may be electric power, mechanical work, or heat.
heat :)
Some work is lost due to friction. This energy is normally released as heat.
