steam engines
"atmospheric engines" use the contraciton of the condensation of steam, not its expansion.
To a physicist there's a fair amount of pseudo-science here - eg power produced by steam - hmm hardly - via steam perhaps. And the reason for the attractiveness of steam as a working medium surely lies in the fact that it's condensible so the pumping power at the cold reservoir temperature cen be very low. There should probably be some link out to the Rankine cycle (eg Zemansky, Heat & Thermodynamics, p224).

Er, why isn't steam a 'fluid', please? All the standard texts I was brought up on, treat is in the same classification as air... Linuxlad 19:53, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
On abzisse you must have für Entropie kJ/kg K. Now its without Kelvin.--82.82.236.1 09:44, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
