What else can I help you with?
What causes the humming sound in your Chevy 2005 Trailblazer when I accelerate?
There could be a few things that can cause this humming sound. It could be the wheel bearings rubbing, it could be the gears rubbing, it could even be coming from the engine pistons.?æ
What type of combustion engine would you classify steam turbines used in power plants?
Steam turbines are external combustion engines.
Will Rubbing Alcohol cause damage to your car engine?
A small amount of rubbing alcohol mixed with gas should not hurt your cars engine. The alcohol will burn with no problems.
Can you put rubbing alcohol in a diesel engine?
No, it is not recommended to put rubbing alcohol in a diesel engine. Rubbing alcohol is not formulated for use as a fuel additive and can cause damage to the engine. It's best to use diesel fuel additives that are specifically designed for diesel engines.
What causes engine failure?
There are four causes of the engine failure. The four causes of the engine failure includes engine overheating, lubrication problems, misassembly , and detonation.
A device that converts thermal energy into mechanical energy is a?
This is a heat engine, they come in various types such as internal combustion, external combustion, steam turbines, gas turbines, etc.
What causes a ticking noise after the car first starts then goes away?
The engine parts are rubbing until the engine oil pressure builds up and the oil starts to lube the parts. Old oil, wrong viscosity, or a clogged filter can cause this to be worse than necessary.
What causes a jet engine to ignite?
A Jet engine contains a series of turbines that accelerate the air that enters the engine. As the air is accelerated it is compressed to a higher density at which point the fuel is able to begin combustion at ambient temperatures. As the engine warms it becomes more efficient as the fuel is pee heated and the compressor is able to spool faster. At higher altitudes the engine becomes more efficient as the initial air density is lowered causing less resistance on the turbines to accelerate the air, thus allowing a higher spool rate with less fuel. Jet engines are very inefficient at sea level when compared to their efficiency at cruising altitudes.
What has the steam engine evolved into today?
It has evolved into steam turbines etc... which are still used to generate power.
Are turbines more efficient than gasoline engines?
By a generous estimate, they can be about 30% more efficient than a gasoline engine. I assume you mean "are turbines more efficient than piston engines". Depends on the running conditions. At full load, steady running conditions, turbines are better than piston Engines. At varying loads, turbines often do quite poorly.
How much horse power does a industrial turbine engine have?
Industrial turbines have many uses. The primary use of turbines today is Electrical Generation. Small turbines are used to operate pumps, compressors and other machinery, and they are used as propulsion units on most ships. These turbines range in size from 10 hp oil pump drives to 1.5 million horsepower generating units.
What causes an engine to shudder?
No gas in the engine
