What else can I help you with?
Is steam fossil fuels?
No,steam is not a fossil fuel
Is electricity fossil fuel?
Electricity itself is not a fossil fuel but, can be generated by steam turbines and generators where the steam has been generated by heating water in fossil fuel boilers.
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.
Is the part within a fossil fuel power station where water is converted to steam?
The part within a fossil fuel power station where water is converted to steam is called the boiler. In the boiler, fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas, or oil are burned to generate heat, which is then used to convert water into steam. This steam is crucial for driving turbines that generate electricity.
What uses coal as fossil fuel?
Power plants, steam locomotives, and some homes.
What are speed boats powered by?
A fossil fuel or wood. This is burnt to make heat and the heat boils water to make steam. The steam pressure is used to push things.However the original source of energy was the heat of the Sun (stored in the fossil fuel or wood).
What enables a steam boat to run only on steam?
Nothing, a steam boat runs not on steam, but on a heat source GENERATING steam. this heat source is usually coal but could be wood or a fossil fuel.
Does fossil fuel generate electricity?
The heat from coal turns water into steam. It is the steam that turns generator turbine blades to create electricity.
How is fossil fuel used to create electricity?
Coal is burnt to boil water into steam steam is then used to drive turbines that are connected to generators that make electricity
What are the steps taken to produce electricity using fossil fuels?
Fossil fuel (coal) is burnt in furnaces. The heat produced turns water into steam. The steam is fed through steam turbine generators. It is these generators that produce electricity. This electricity is fed onto the national grid.
How does a fossil fuel power station work?
A fossil fuel power station burns coal, oil, or natural gas to produce heat which then converts water into steam. The steam drives a turbine connected to a generator, producing electricity. This electricity is then transmitted through power lines to homes and businesses.
What is the evolution from steam engines?
Steam engines (trains) evolved in to diesel and then electric. Steam engines like beam engines gave way to massive turbines many fueled by electric and other fossil fuel
