V-Type Steam Engine Model – 3D Model SolidWorks

steam engine is a reciprocating power machine that converts the energy of steam into mechanical work. The emergence of the steam engine caused the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century. Until the beginning of the 20th century, it was still the most important prime mover in the world, and later gradually gave way to internal combustion engines and steam turbines.
A steam engine requires a boiler that boils water to produce high-pressure steam. This boiler can use wood, coal, oil or natural gas or even combustible garbage as a heat source. The steam expands and pushes the piston to do work.
