What was the first internal combustion engine used for and how did it work?
Essentially the first internal combustion engine was invented in the late 1600's (the specific year is unknown) by the English inventor Sir Samuel Morland. The engine ran on gun powder and was used mostly for pumping water. In 1860 the Belgium inventor, Lenoir, designed an engine that some consider the first Internal Combustion Engine, because it ran on a mixture of air and coal dust and was ignited by an electrical spark. In 1863, the engine was revised to include a carburettor and burn liquid petroleum gas. The engine was use to move a three wheeled cart, but most commonly it was used as a stationary power plant for printing presses, water pumps, and machine tools.
What is the different between engine and power plant?
powerplant the engine with accessory the engine with out accessory
What power plant has high load factor?
Diesel Engine has high load factor
What component transfers heat from the products of combustion to the room air?
this is called a heat exchanger with an open campfire it may not be a physical object with an electric heater it may be miles away at a power plant
What is the synonym for engine?
If you're thinking of a modern car engine, I don't know that there is a perfect synonym. If you use an online dictionary and search for synonyms, you will come across words such as contrivance, agent, apparatus, power plant, etc. There are other uses of the word "engine", such as (search) engine as well. Some synonyms can include: machine, motor, mechanism, generator, dynamo
What are internal combustion power plant?
The power plant includes an internal combustion engine and a direct current electric motor generator.
Is a leaf external or internal?
Leaf is an external organ of the plant
What affected the internal combustion engine have on transportation?
The internal combustion engine made possible, rapid, efficient and hence relatively (to predecessors) low-cost powered machinery. This applies in fixed plant and to the transport of people and goods over any from local to very long distances on land, at sea and in the air..
What powers an internal combustion engine?
There are way too many answers for that question. Basically any machine that uses natural gas, diesel fuel, petrol (Gasoline-USA) and kerosene will be driven by an internal combustion. These include most road going vehicles, most earthmoving equipment, marine vessels as well as a lot of fixed plant; generators, compressors refrigeration plant etc. Some electric vehicles are driven via a generator that runs of an internal combustion engine. Diesel-electric locomotives are a classic example of this.

When does energy transform?
You can transform thermal energy to electrical energy in a power plant, chemical energy to mechanical energy in an internal combustion engine, or nuclear energy into thermal energy in a nuclear reactor. These are just three examples.
What are three energy transformation that release heat into the environment?
Burning fossil fuels in a power plant to generate electricity releases heat as a byproduct. Combustion of gasoline in an internal combustion engine in a vehicle also releases heat. Incineration of waste materials in a waste-to-energy facility generates heat.
What is a steam generator used for in a fossil fuel power plant?
To convert the heat of combustion to steam which can be used in an engine.
History of diesel power plant?
in 1913, Rudolph Diesel proposed a new type of internal combustion engine that had more pressure. This raised the temperature of the gas in the cylinder. This, then, allowed a lower grade of fuel to be used instead of highly combustible gasoline.
What is one example of an external and internal stimulus of a plant?
An example of an external stimulus for a plant is light, which influences growth direction through phototropism, causing plants to bend toward the light source. An internal stimulus could be the plant's hormonal response to stress, such as the production of abscisic acid in response to drought, which triggers stomatal closure to conserve water. Both types of stimuli play crucial roles in a plant's survival and adaptation.
