What else can I help you with?
Water is heated and changed to STEAM?
That is called boiling. And it is something you can see and observe, but it is something tht is chemically relted and so it is a chemical change.
What type of combustion engine would you classify steam turbines used in power plants?
Steam turbines are external combustion engines.
Why you use saturated steam in steam tracing?
If you use saturated steam, the main source of the heat is provided by the condensation of the steam at a constant temperature. The energy provided by the condensing steam is significantly more than what you can get from just changing the temperature of superheated steam. When the temperature remains constant, design calculations are also a lot easier; the temperatures stay the same (or almost the same) for the steam along the entire run and the pressure stays the same (or almost the same).
What are the benefits of burning coal?
The main benefit derived from burning anything is the energy that is released (normally as heat). In power generation, the energy is used to boil water which will generate steam in order to turn steam turbines to generate electricity. Coal is one of the most abundant 'fuels' on earth, therefore the fuel is very cheap, and can easily be burned to generate energy.
Where would a steam separator be located on a boiler?
In the steam drum, where steam exits and flows to the superheaters.
What kind of energy does a steam engine change to?
Heat And Kinetic Energy
What kind of machine converts chemical energy to mechanical energy?
A steam engine would be one example, a motor car engine would be another.
What process converts chemical energy to a mechanical energy?
An engine is needed to do this. A steam engine A jet engine A car engine A battery driven electric engine. The process is normally multi step.
What energy does the steam engine use?
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.
Is mixing popcorn steam a physical or chemical change?
it is a chemical change
Is steam turning into water chemical or physical?
Chemical changes are those in which the chemical composition of a substance changes during the process. But when steam turns into water or vice versa, only the physical state of the substance undergoes a change but the chemical composition remains same. Thus steam turning into water is a physical change.
Is water is heated and changed to steam a physical change or chemical change?
chemical
Difference between a pysical change and a chemical change?
Chemical change changes the electrons of matter, a physical change does not. Water is water as ice, water and steam, this is a change of state but physically there is no change of water it is a change of the energy content of water.
What is an example of thermal energy into mechanical energy?
A steam engine. Like used in a steam locomotive
Is steam a chemical raection?
No. Steam is water vapor. Steam is formed by boiling water, which is a physical change.
What is the function of steam engine?
The function of the steam engine is to convert heat energy into motive power, mechanical energy. A boiler generates steam by the application of heat, that steam is then expanded (losing its heat energy) into a steam engine which moves a load (locomotive, line shaft, pump, machine, generator, etc.).
What energy transformations occur in a steam engine?
In a steam engine, the energy transformation involves converting the potential energy contained in steam (thermal energy) into mechanical energy. This process involves the steam expanding and pushing against a piston, which in turn drives a crankshaft to produce rotational mechanical energy.
