Britain Sabotaged the Steam Engine of Leibniz and Papin

The early history of the invention of the steam engine shows without doubt that the British Royal Society, including Isaac Newton personally, deliberately prevented the industrial and naval applications of steam power for nearly 1 00 years. In fact, the Royal Society was so intent on burying Denis Papin's 1690 invention of a paddle-wheel-driven steamship, worked out in collaboration with Gottfr...

Streams of Steam – The Steam Boiler Specification Case Study

FOCUS is a mathematics-based methodology for the development of distributed reactive systems. This paper sketches the expressiveness and the usefulness of the well-tuned concepts of FOCUS by its application of the requirements specification of a steam boiler, see [Abr96]. We demonstrate the support for non-specialists in formal methods by using userfriendly description techniques, here the stat...

Numerical Modeling of Wet Steam Flow in Steam Turbine Channel

In power station practice, work is extracted from expanding steam in three stages namely High Pressure(HP), Intermediate Pressure(IP) and Low Pressure(LP) turbines. During the expansion process in the LP turbine, the steam cools down and at some stages, it nucleates to become a two-phase mixture. It is well-acknowledged in the literature that the nucleating and wet stages in steam turbines are ...
