Book excerpt: Excerpt from Marine Engineering of Canada, 1922, Vol. 12 As everyone knows, steam forms the medium by which the potential energy of the coal is passed on to the prime mover. The production of mechanical power from the heat available in the steam depends upon the conversion of the heat energy into kinetic energy, and the ensuing conversion of this kinetic energy of the steam to mechanical work done on the turbine shaft.
