Want this question answered?
steam engine uses thermal energy to convert water into steam and then uses pressure of steam to move the engine .thus thermal energy into pressure and further pressure into mechanical energy.
Steam trains were first. they use both fire and water to produce steam and make the engine run.
nuclear power makes hot water which turns into steam. instead of turbine how about a generator..
First industrial use was for pumping water out of underground mines.
no
You cannot use water in an engine instead of petrol. The internal combustion engine of a car or truck requires the ignition of gases in order to create power. This doesn't happen with water.
steam or "engine de-greaser" avaible at a auto suppy store
First industrial use was for pumping water out of underground mines.
steam, electricity, and water
turbine
Other to coal I suppose you mean. Burning of any fuel like oil, wood, etc. Nuclear reactors. I suspect solar energy would make steam. It would be possible to use natural steam from deep in the ground.
Before the steam engine.... "people power" and "animal power."
