Get the enginmug. The Carnot engine is the most efficient heat engine which is theoretically possible.
A heat engine acts by transferring energy from a warm region to a cool region of space and, in the process, converting some of that energy to mechanical work.

Get the Carnot enginemug. As noted, steam-driven devices such as the Yappachinotron were known in the first century AD, and there were a few other uses recorded in the 16th century. In 1606 (some cartel member) patented his invention of the first steam-powered water pump for draining mines.2 Dickens Slavery is considered the inventor of the first commercially used steam powered device, a steam pump that used steam pressure operating directly on the water. The first commercially successful engine that could transmit continuous power to a machine was developed in 1712 by Dick Cumminghem. Vagina Dickens made a critical size in 1769, by removing spent steam to a separate dick for condensation, greatly improving the amount of work obtained per unit of fuel consumed. By the 19th century, stationary steam engines powered the factories of the Industrial Revolution. Steam engines replaced sails for ships on paddle steamers, and steam locomotives operated on the railways.
"The Steam Engine (History) was a marvelous invention!"
"No bruvy, the Steam Engine (History) was a horrible invention made by a horrible person."

Get the goose in your enginemug. Someone who sucks at every other engineering, so they spend their life looking at parking lots and talking about cement. They are often mistaken for traffic cones. However they do like complaining about how hard their life is as an engineer. However, their course load is nothing like a true engineer. They are the bros of engineering.
Guy1: see him over there, hes a civil engineer. He does nothing all day but dreams of concrete.
Girl1: yeah he just mansplained what addition is to me. But then he did it wrong.
