Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - When you put enough BTUs into water, it flashes to steam, expanding to 1700 times its original volume. That's the raw power of nature.

Nuclear power, coal power, natural gas power, concentrated solar power, geothermal power-it all is converted into steam to run generators. And the technology dates back to about 1700. Steam engines also make a marvelous hobby for some folks who enjoy watching and trying to control this awesome force, with machinery from a bygone era.
