@Eyepix65 Not half bad is it eh? Engines coming out this week for a winter overhaul, first time its been out since it went in when new 20 years ago. Estimated hours 2500hours.
The steam engine and the mythical high efficiency engine are one in the same. It's because the heat can be captured and recycled. Do we know this? I don't think we do know this. It is suppressed information. Could that be so? Look at it carefully and then figure it out.
@dhutch2000 The steam engine is different because it does not throw away heat. The variables are heat, and the amount of energized that is allow to fllow over a prescribed number of degrees, or when the pusher steam is allowed to start and finish.. You have how much energy/amount, and the choice of how to direct it though a piston engine. After its mechanical energy is spent, what heat is left over can be reused Cool huh? or hotter and cooler, and you don't have heat energy flying off.
@hypnofan35 Ive just spent three days on the boat (and 5 years doing a degree in engineering) and i can assure that there is one hell of a lot of heat thrown away in a steam plant. Why do powerstations have cooling towers!
What a great sound.
