Q

The heat engine how does it work

A

Two hollow hemisphere’s are fitted together to create a vacuum by extracting the air through a valve water increases it’s size by 1300x when heated into steam. This would use heat to create steam to do work

17
Q

Patented a steam engine

A

Thomas Newcomen 1712

18
Q

Made the first heat engine

A

Denis Papin 1690

19
Q

Designed a more efficient steam engine

A

James Watt 1763

20
Q

powder engine

A

Chrisitan Igens 1698

21
Q

Patented an engine fuelled by oil and gas

A

Robert Steete 1794

22
Q

Invented the first internal combustion engine

A

Eugene Lebon 1801

23
Q

Invented first steam powdered pump

A

Thomas Very 1698

24
Q

Improvements made to Lebons design

25
designed an internal combustions engine that used gas
G. Daimier 1883
26
Cars and combustion engines in mass production
1890
27
Developed the 4 stroke internal combustion engine
N.A Otto and Eugene Lebon 1867
28
The initial energy source
energy input
29
The desired energy needed to do
Useful Energy Output
30
The work machines are suppose to do
Useful Work Output
31
A measured unit of how effectively a machine converts energy input into useful energy
Efficiency
32
E =
Useful mechanical energy/ total mechanical energy
33
Discovered that the transformation of heat into mechanical energy flows from a hot object to a cold object (some heat is loss in the process) also determined the laws of heat efficiency of heat engines
Sodi Carnot
34
He said that heat is another form of energy
James Prescott Jules
35
When an object may store energy because of its position relative to some other object it has the potential to close work
Potential Energy
36
When a force is applied against gravity, resulting in energy being stored. The energy stored in an object at any position above the earth
Gravitational Potential Energy
