engine that derives much of its improvement in thermodynamic efficiency through the use of multiple stages in the expansion of the steam‚ which results in a closer approach to the ideal reversible process. APPLICATIONS: - The steam turbine system is used to create over 80 percent of the world’s electricity supply. - Steam turbines were also used to create motion in locomotives. The kinetic energy of the turbines was converted into turning force to drive the locomotive wheels. - Steam

FOUR STROKE PETROL ENGINE The four stroke petrol engine works in the following way:- Intake stroke In this stroke‚ fuel and air is allowed inside the cylinder by the downward movement of the piston which involves the opening of intake valve. Compression stroke Piston moves upward again in this stroke and the fuel and air mixture is compressed. Power stroke In this stroke power is generated when the spark plug ignites the fuel and piston moves down‚ this helps the engine to start initially
