For what purpose is a pneumatic valve used?
Pneumatic valves are used to close valves in high-speed internal combustion engines, pneumatic valves are mostly to help racing engines to get to high speeds.
How were steam engines used in the past?
Steam engines were first used in the tin mines of Cornwall, England to pump water from the mines which often extended out under the Cornish coastline.
What is the element was used for aircraft gas turbine engines?
titanuim and nickel by Brandon Lopez
Thrust bearing used in most radial engines?
Yes it is. They use deep groove bearings in most radial engines. These types best for reducing friction while carrying both thrust and radial loads
When did the diesel and gasoline engines replace the steam engine?
Diesel and gasoline engines began to replace steam engines in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The widespread adoption of internal combustion engines in automobiles and trucks during the early 1900s, alongside advancements in diesel technology, contributed to the decline of steam power. By the mid-20th century, steam engines had largely been replaced in most applications, particularly in transportation. However, steam engines continued to be used in certain industries, such as power generation, for several decades thereafter.

When was the Stirling engine invented?
It was invented in 1816 by Robert Stirling. You can find much more information about stirling engines and carnot cycles on Wikipedia.
Who developed a type of engine that is used in submarines ships and locomotives?
Robert Stirling was the Scottish inventor of the first practical example of a closed cycle air engine in 1816, and it was suggested by Fleeming Jenkin as early as 1884 that all such engines should therefore generically be called Stirling engines.
What has the author Israeli Urieli written?
Israeli Urieli has written: 'Stirling cycle engine analysis' -- subject(s): Stirling engines
How much power is in a stirling engine generator?
A Stirling engine generator is less powerful than a combustion engine, but more ecologically sustainable. It operates on heat exchange. There are many types of Stirling engines.
What has the author J R Senft written?
J. R. Senft has written: 'An introduction to Stirling engines' -- subject(s): Stirling engines 'On weak automorphisms of universal algebras' -- subject(s): Algebra, Universal, Universal Algebra
Explain how an acoustic stirling engine works?
Bob told me that the acoustic stirling engines run when you hum to them. No seriously, it's true since Bob told me it was.
What has an external combustion engine?
Some Swedish subs have Stirling engines which is external combustion.
Where can you buy a commercial Stirling engine?
sunpower company seems to make stirling engines. but i don't know the prices or availability. if you know more information please post here.
Is a stirling engine the same as a steam engine?
No, a Stirling engine is not the same as a steam engine. A Stirling engine operates by cyclically heating and cooling a gas, which expands and contracts to produce mechanical work, while a steam engine relies on steam generated from boiling water to create pressure that drives a piston. The key difference lies in their operating principles and the working fluids used. Stirling engines are typically more efficient and can utilize various heat sources, whereas steam engines are specifically designed to use water as the working fluid.
