A steam engine is a broad term that refers to any engine that converts steam energy into mechanical work, often used in various applications like locomotives, boats, and industrial machinery. A tank engine, specifically, is a type of steam locomotive designed to carry its water and fuel in tanks mounted on the locomotive itself, rather than relying on a separate tender. This design allows tank engines to be more maneuverable and suited for short-distance or urban services. In summary, all tank engines are steam engines, but not all steam engines are tank engines.
Actually they carry the water in the tender in a tank below the coal. The tender is hooked onto the back of engine, and the water gets to the boiler which is the 'large tank on the front of the engine' through a flexible hose. In the large tank on the front of the engine.
There is no difference. Both are usually round, both some times are open top, a silo is a tank. PE API650 Tank Engineer 2007
when height & Dia ratio is less than 1 that is tank otherwise silo
Are you sure that's difference and not just a half-witted example of sameness?
Thomas the tank engine was created by Rev Wilbert vere Awdry. and he lived in the UK
Thomas is a steam driven tank engine. A tank engine is a locomotive that carries water in either one or two tanks, rather than towing a water and fuel tender.
Diesel calls steam engines "Steamies."

Water in a gas tank can cause white smoke or steam to come out of the exhaust as it will mix with the gasoline during combustion. This can result in poor engine performance and potential engine damage if not addressed promptly. It is recommended to have the water drained from the gas tank and the fuel system flushed to prevent further issues.
There is no standard shape for a tank, so the answer depends on the particular tank.

a male tank has a cannon gun a female tank has a machine gun
Get a life nerdy kids.
Between the fuel tank and engine. Look under the car and follow the gas line from the tank to the engine. You will find it.
A storage tank is usually elevated, and feeds water by gravity. A suction tank relies on a pump to move water.
