The dynamo exists in two types, or configurations. The first, the generator, delivers only Direct Current; while the second type, the alternator delivers just AC, or alternating current.

For the Dynamo to produce energy it must be turned. Water falling 1,000 feet down onto a turbines blades will spin the [attached] Generator. Steam has the same effect upon the blades of a turbine.

What is total heat of steam?

The total heat of steam, also known as enthalpy of steam, is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of water to its boiling point and then convert it into steam without changing its temperature. It is the sum of sensible heat and latent heat of vaporization.


How is a steam burn an example of latent heat?

A steam burn is an example of latent heat, because beside the heat released by the steam itself, a part of it condenses, turning into water, which in turn releases heat too.


What is the work done by 9.00 of water when it is all boiled to steam at 100?

Not enough information to answer. Water does not do work when transformed into steam. Once it exists as steam, work can be done as it converts back to water. You will always get less out than you put in. The energy you put in is called the enthalpy of vaporization, (delta H), is also called heat of vaporization or heat of evaporation. The energy required to transform water from a liquid into a gas at atmospheric pressure is 40.68 kilojoules per mole 2260 kilojoules per kilogram. Energy is the ability to do work. Creating steam requires energy. Water does not do work when transformed into steam. Steam, after it is created, can do work and in the normal steam engine, it is then converted back to water. That process involves a few basic issues such as pressure, temperature change and entropy which are not available with the data provided.


Is steam a type of heat wave a type?

No, steam is water as a gas.


How does a wood fire generator work to produce electricity?

A wood fire generator works by burning wood to heat water and produce steam. The steam then turns a turbine connected to a generator, which produces electricity.

How do you get electrcity from coal?

You burn the coal in a power station. The heat form the coal boils water and the pressure from the steam coming from the boiling water is used to turn the rotors of a dynamo. The dynamo makes the electricity.


How steam boilers work?

Steam boilers work by boiling water to generate steam. The steam then is used to heat the engine.


How is heat converted into work in a steam engine?

In a steam engine, heat is used to boil water and produce steam under pressure. The steam is then directed into a piston chamber, where it expands and pushes a piston, converting the heat energy into mechanical work. The movement of the piston is then used to drive a crankshaft, which can power machinery or generate electricity.


How does steam heater work?

The steam flows through a grill of pipes and the heat radiates from the pipes to the room.


Heat engines use heat to do work?

Yes. Heat engines come in various forms. For example, internal combustion using gasoline or diesel, external combustion (not much used), steam engines reciprocating or turbine, gas turbines, rocket engines.


What is the use of steam engine?

To convert heat energy into mechanical work.


How electricity is produced in a gas-fired power station?

In a gas-fired power station, natural gas is burned to heat water and produce steam. The high-pressure steam turns a turbine connected to a generator, which converts mechanical energy into electricity. The electricity is then sent out to the grid for distribution.


If the water is shut off will the furnace work?

If you have hot water heat or steam heat, it will still work. Gas or electric heat has nothing to do with the water system.
