Is the steerage class back in between1820 and 1920 near a steam ships engine room?
Apparently it was the deck immediately below the main deck, and primarally a cargo hold, but converted with light engineering to accomodate passengers
Where is the engine size marked on the engine?
normal on the front face of the engine or the right hand side of the engine
How do you take steam on face?
You hydrate the face for 10 min with a steam machine, you will need to put eye pad and lip balm to protect the face.
Why do we use throttle valve in steam engines?
For a steam engine, the steam(throttle) valve that sets the engine speed/power is often known as a regulator.

What is upmilling and downmilling?
Upmilling and down milling are also known as conventional milling & climb milling.
the process in which the cutting tool cuts the material and forms a chip which is big in the starting and thin in the end is known as climb or down milling. The figure is self explanatory.
Upmilling or Conventional milling
How much horse power is in a 110cc engine?
Depends entirely on who makes the engine and how it's tuned. Could be anywhere from 4 -10 hp.
What were the steam engines like before James Watt improved them?
Before James Watt's improvements in the late 18th century, steam engines were primarily inefficient and limited in their functionality. They were often large, cumbersome, and relied on atmospheric pressure, which meant they could only operate in a cyclical manner, leading to wasted energy and slow performance. The engines had low power output and were primarily used for pumping water out of mines rather than for broader industrial applications. Watt's innovations, including the separate condenser, greatly enhanced efficiency and usability, paving the way for the industrial revolution.
What were some Problems with using steam engines on American railroads?
They would have been similar to those of operating in any very large continent: long distances from coal supplies (or wood for the earliest); climates not conducive to steam operation, such as extreme cold or aridity; mountainous terrain giving long, steep gradients and other more general problems to the railways anyway. Possibly too, in the more remote areas, shortage of readily-available, skilled labour to drive and more particularly, the local skills and equipment to maintain and repair the locomotives. As the railways became more established these problems could be overcome.
Steam trains were once widespread, and changed the world. A steam engine is an external combustion engine, meaning that the fuel burns outside the engine. In modern internal combustion engines the petrol or diesel burns inside the engine, and the gases produced expand and push the cylinders, and this motion eventually turns the wheels. In the steam engine the fuel burns in an external fire box. The heat boils the water to make steam, which pushes the cylinders. So it depends exactly what you mean by 'run'. Certainly there were and are steam trains, but the steam doesn't provide the energy to make it go, the fuel does.
What were steam engine powers used for?
steam engine powers are used for the transport application in the early days. Later modified versions of the steam engines are used also for the electrical energy generation.
How did the steam engine change travel in America?
It wasn't the engine being steam-powered as such, nor especially in America; but the development of the railways allowed people and goods to be transported efficiently and reasonably rapidly over long distances. This was the same as in the UK, in Europe, etc.
What is the part of a steam train that the steam comes out of?
The blastpipe which is located inside the smokebox located at the front of the engine. The steam is ejected into the atmosphere through the chimney or smokestack.
Why was the first locomotive invented?
The first locomotive was invented to improve transportation efficiency and facilitate the movement of goods and people over land. Prior to its invention, transport relied heavily on horse-drawn vehicles, which were limited in capacity and speed. The steam locomotive, developed in the early 19th century, harnessed the power of steam to pull heavy loads, leading to the expansion of rail networks and significantly transforming industries and economies. This innovation marked the beginning of the railway era, revolutionizing transportation and trade.
