No one knows how steam works. it is till a myth in the eyes of science.
Where were the engines located in the Titanic?
She was steam-powered. Titanic had two 4-cylinder steam reciprocating (piston)engines which were each two stories tall and drove the two wing screws (propellers). They each had a high-pressure cylinder, an intermediate-pressure cylinder, and two low-pressure cylinders. The steam ejected from the low-pressure cylinders of these two engines fed the low-pressure Parsons steam turbine which drove the center screw. The turbine was there to wring the last ounce of drive from the steam before it was sent off to the main condensers. The steam for the engines was provided by 29 coal-fired boilers; 24 of these were double-ended (meaning they had 3 furnaces on each side) and the remaining 5 were single-ended. The normal operating pressure for the boilers was around 215 psi. This engine layout is called a "triple expansion." Steam from the boilers entered the high-pressure cylinders of each reciprocating engine via the intake headers. From there, the steam went into the intermediate and then the low pressure cylinders. From the low-pressure cylinders, some steam was fed to the Parsons turbine and some was carried out via the exhaust headers. From here, the steam was sent off to the main condensers where it was condensed back into water and fed back to the boilers to repeat the cycle. While this was going on, valve lifters at the top of the cylinders were opened and closed by what's called an "eccentric link" to feed steam into the cylinders and eject it. Steam forced the pistons up and down, moving the connecting rods which turned the crankshafts, flywheels, and propeller shafts--similar to the way an automobile engine works. Titanic's engines produced around 45,000 horsepower altogether. The steam turbine is basically a series of fans arranged in a row. These fans are turned by the action of steam being forced through the blades, which provide the torque to turn the propeller shaft. As with the reciprocating engines, reduction gear was used to make the ship's screws turn fewer revolutions than the engines.

How do external combustion engines produce mechanical energy?
"External combustion engine" almost always means a steam engine. There are two kinds. Reciprocating steam engines have a boiler to make steam, a piston assembly for the steam to act against, and a flywheel for the piston assembly to turn. The first steam engines were "single acting" engines. You introduce steam into the piston assembly. When it reaches the bottom of its travel, the rotating flywheel forces the piston back to the top. This is how single-cylinder internal combustion engines work. That's not efficient because you rely on mechanical inertia to make the engine work, so someone invented the "double acting" engine. The piston assembly has two pistons in it. When the piston on the left side reaches the bottom of its stroke the one on the right has reached the top of its, and a valve switches the steam from the left piston to the right one. This is far more efficient, and it's how any internal combustion engine with more than one cylinder works. To get useful work out of this thing, you put a big drive belt around the flywheel. Steam turbines are a lot like jet engines, except that jet engines don't have boilers. There are two kinds of turbine wheels, and every steam turbine contains both types. One kind has blades that you shoot steam against. The other kind has nozzles that steam shoots out of. The guy who invented this motor knew the first wheel wouldn't use all the energy in the steam, so he captured the steam used on the first wheel to drive a second, and he kept going until all the usable energy had been extracted from the steam. The shaft of the steam turbine directly drives the load.
