Unlike piston-operated steam engines, there is no chugging noise with a turbine. It just whizzes away with a little push. The tiny locomotive is an impressive piece of amateur engineering.

Problem: Steam turbines generate most of the world’s electricity, and approximately 42% in the US [1]. Keeping them in operation is vital. Condensation in the low-pressure stage can result in ...

Figure 2 clearly illustrates that the upgraded turbine uses less steam per MW of power produced. This reduced steam rate translates into an equivalent reduction in heat rate. At 360 MW, the ...

Turbines, H. M. S. AmethystRecent official tests of the Amethyst, of the British naval establishment, have given remarkable results as establishing the economy and value of the steam turbine for ...

Pratt also says the concept solves several potential problems associated with converting gas turbines to run on hydrogen. These include the challenges of integrating the cryogenic liquid at -253C ...

ABS to Class Innovative Moss-type LNG Carriers To be built in Ulsan, Korea, the ships will feature energy efficient reheated steam turbine engines. ABS, a provider of classification and technical ...

These force steam into the Curtis turbine engine which will produce 300bhp, enough to push the car to 200mph (in theory).
