What else can I help you with?
What is a device that changes thermal energy into mechanicl energy?
A steam engine.
What is the difference between internal combustion engine and external combustion engine?
In an Internal Combustion Engine, the Fuel is burnt in the cylinder or vessel eg. Diesel or Petrol engine used in Cars.Gasoline engines, Wankel engines, diesels, gas turbines are all examples of internal combustion.In an External Combustion Engine, the internal working fuel is not burnt. Here the fluid is being heated from an external source. The fuel is heated and expanded through the internal mechanism of the engine resulting in work. eg. Steam Turbine, Steam engine Trains.
What is an example of an external combustion engine?
Examples of external combustion engines: 1) wood-burning or coal burning steam-powered locomotives 2) coal and oil-fired boilers on steamships 3) Stanley Steamer, an early steam-powered motorcar 4) nuclear reactors
Is a steam engine alive?
No, a steam engine is not alive. It is a machine that uses the energy created by heating water to produce mechanical work. It does not have the characteristics of a living organism such as growth, reproduction, or response to stimuli.
Where did Michael Faraday improve the steam engine?
Michael Faraday did not directly improve the steam engine itself; instead, he made significant contributions to the understanding of electromagnetism and electrochemistry. His work laid the groundwork for future advancements in energy conversion, including the development of electric motors and generators, which are conceptually related to steam engine technology. Faraday's experiments with electromagnetic induction ultimately impacted the broader field of energy production and utilization.
Did global warming start in Antarctica?
No, global warming probably started in Britain with the invention of the steam engine and the start of the Industrial Revolution. The discovery that coal was readily available underground and that it burned so easily was the trigger for global warming.
Did the steam engine cause global warming?
It didnt cause it but it sure did help. The burning of coal and other fossil fuels are major causes of global warming by release immense amounts of carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide into the atmosphere.
What invention provided the greatest boat to the Industrial Revolution?
The invention of the Steam engine provided the greatest boat to the industrial revolution. The Steam Engine allowed for a faster mode of transportation, but the harmful effects of it were the first exposures to Global Warming. Hope this Helped
Why the steam engine is not working at now?
Expensive. Pollution. Coal. Heat. Smelly. Global Warming. Fire. Smoke. Smoke Inhalation. Warm. Dirtying of lungs. Slow.
If global warming started in 1880 why did no-one do anything to stop it?
At the beginning of the Industrial Revolution we were so pleased with the invention of the steam engine, and later, the internal combustion engine, that we didn't look for any side effects. Scientists didn't really take global warming seriously until the middle of the 20th Century, and then it took many years to convince governments that it was serious.
Why does MRT need to run on electricity?
Other forms such as Diesel and Steam are more pollutant and also contributed to global warming
What effect did the steam engine have on transport and british industry?
dont knw
What effect did the steam engine have on skilled workers?
They were unemployed or took menial jobs.
What is an effect of the steam engine?
basically, a steam angine is able to harness the energy of steam to move machinery. it is a fairly clean source of enegry. steam angine were used to great effect htp://americanhistory.about.com/od/industrialrev/p/steamengine.htm
What is the most significant effect in the Industrial Revolution?
The increase in transportation was the most significant effect of the Industrial Revolution.
What type of combustion engine in the steam engine?
A steam engine is an external combustion engine. As the steam engine combusts outside of the engine itself.
What effect did the invention of the steam engine have?
the invention of the steam engine in 1705 brought in a new source of power. the steam engine used fire to heatb water and produce steam.that why they invented a steam driven boat which allow people to send good quickly over river and canals. It increased the speed of trains. It revolutionised transportation
