Is there any technology that converts heat to energy?

For heavy industry, a steel plant will produce a lot of heat during forging the steel, and that heat could be collected and convert to electricity or some other form of energy.



Do we have that technology available today and what is it called?

Thank you.Is there any technology that converts heat to energy?
The technology is not the problem as it rarely is.



in a steel mill it may be possible to create steam from the heat to drive a generator.



but that would probably be uneconomical, in my electromechanics lectures all the lecturer ever talks about is how energy plans have to be economical, That's why coal and natural gas is still by far the most common power source.



In a steel mill it will be more economical to prevent heat losses and be efficient in heating etc then to try to recover energy with costly generator machines
First of all heat is itself a form of energy.



The heat produced in heavy industries is converted into steam and this steam may be used for some other work. But i doubt if electricity can be generated through this.Is there any technology that converts heat to energy?
In Power Boilers Heat produced in the furnace converts water circulated in boiler tubes to steam. This steam is Superheated and comes to Steam Turbine. Superheated means to heat steam further to get dry. Other ways due to entering steam to blades in Turbine will be damaged very soon due to erosion.

So in Steam Turbine steam passes through impulse/Reaction blades and it will rotate in high speed like 7000rpm. Then speed reduced to 3000 rpm to generator and produces Electric Energy.

In Boiler used fuel for heating is Coal or Furnace Oil,or Petroleum Gas or Wood Etc.

We have seen heat energy in Boiler converts heat to Electrical Power.

Thus in Automobile air fuel mixture burns and gas expand and makes power. Here Heat Energy converts into MECHANICAL Energy.
Heat IS energy. the heat released as part of a process like steel production isn't produced by the process, it is a requirement for the process.



Since there is always energy loss in a conversion process, the best solution in such situations is to isolate the heated area to minimize the loss rather than impose another layer of heat conversion outside of the system to recover the loss Improve efficiency of the primary process is always better than recovering a part of the loss due to inefficiency.Is there any technology that converts heat to energy?
The steam engine. We've had it for a while.
thermocouples and waste energy recovery steam turbines will start you off.
Definitely you can convert heat in to energy.The most common example of that process is old railway steam engine.

  • What type of technology would be already created in this alternate 1899?

    Hello. I need to know what types of technology would be already created for this advances in this alternate 1899 that is more advanced than the real one.



    - rockets to the moon.

    - underground buildings.

    - radio.

    - government computers only for lists.

    - cars

    - airplanes

    - airships.



    I need these information please. Thank You! :)What type of technology would be already created in this alternate 1899?
    Check out Steampunk.What type of technology would be already created in this alternate 1899?
    Cars already existed, although they were *very* primitive and used as playthings for the rich, not for transportation. The first airplane flight was in 1905 - not that very far in the real future. Hot air balloons existed and were pretty common. Airships would not be that big a stretch. Radio already existed - although it was bulky and expensive and could just send morse code. The ancient Egyptians had underground buildings, so they were possible, certainly.



    So I'd say Underground buildings, radio (go ahead and say voice), real cars, primitive airplanes (not airliners, but more like WW1 stuff) and airships.



    Computers are out of the question. They didn't happen until late in WW2 and even then they were awkward, slow, huge (several rooms big) and required almost an electrical sub-station to power them. It took a team of full-time engineers just to run simple programs. In even an advanced 1899 they wouldn't have been dreamed of yet.



    Same for moon rockets. When we went to the moon in the 1960's it was a huge stretch - the first several attempts missed the moon altogether and just shot by it. And... they require computers! The rocket would have to adjust its course several times on the way and the amount of precision math and angles involved would be more that the people aboard could manage without help from a computer center on the ground. You also have things like exotic fuels and high-temperature metals for the engines to worry about. The best your 1899 folks could do would be to blow up the launch pad trying.What type of technology would be already created in this alternate 1899?
    For radio, they would need to be able to generate electricity. That doesn't mean that there would have been power or radios in every household. Probably the best they could have done unless things were VERY different would be a radio in every post office.



    They would have needed to be able to produce synthetic materials like heat resistant tile to take the heat of friction from air resistance during takeoff and reentry, as well as more advanced chemical propellants than simple gunpowder or nitro. Alternatively, if their electrical equipment was VERY advanced, they could take a big carrier airship up with an ion rocket that would be more efficient, but less powerful. Such a craft would not need as much heat resistance, but would have to orbit several times to build up enough speed with the weaker rockets to escape the Earth's gravity.



    Airships would have taken larger-scale production and assembly of frames and of helium or hydrogen than was common. They had equipment to generate enough helium to lift several balloons during the American Civil War, but not on the scale that would have been needed for regular, safe, and reliable cargo or passenger flights. Modern airships are made from synthetic materials that weren't invented yet in the 1800's.



    Underground buildings would have been tough feats of engineering and architecture, but doable.



    If they had enough electricity for radios, primitive counting computers would have been no problem. Otherwise, they would have to use mechanical computers, which would be very slow. Archimedes probably could have designed one if he had known about such things. I have no idea how one would work.



    They had steam cars in the 1800's, but they were few and far between. Mass production would have taken the invention of an assembly line.



    Heavier-than-air airplanes would have been just barely manageable with super-light steam engines. They would be nowhere near as powerful as today's airplanes or anything earlier with an internal combustion engine and propeller. The steam planes would have been just barely able to keep themselves in the air. Forget about maneuvering. A slight tilt could send one plummeting. I wouldn't trust my life to one, not for any amount of money.



    Hope this helps.

    What are some career options for someone with a degree in software engineering technology?

    I'm starting school at Oregon Institute of Technology and planning on majoring in software engineering technology. I would love to get a good job once I'm done with school. I'd like to maybe get into the law enforcement field (every police agency needs a good computer nerd) but is that realistic? What sort of things might I be able to do?What are some career options for someone with a degree in software engineering technology?
    If you are good at software engineering - Microsoft needs them to fix all the multiple flaws in their operating systems...... all the back doors the hackers use to create misery. You will have a lifetime job guaranteed!

    What needs to change in the world relating to computers/technology?

    I have to write a paper relating to my major, which is computer science, and it has to be about a call for change. Basically, I can't think of anything that needs to be changed about technology and a little help would be nice.What needs to change in the world relating to computers/technology?
    I for one would like to see the complete transition to 64 bit software.

    What kind of position should someone with a Business and Technology Management degree look for?

    Hello everyone,

    I am a recent graduate with a bachelors in business and technology management. I have been looking for work for the past few months as a business analyst, assistant project manager and a few others. I have been unsuccessful although I think I have a great resume, lots of experience and a good education.



    The only jobs that I was able to find were with sales. However, with sales, I feel that my education is worthless. I do not see myself as a salesman.



    My question is, what kind of positions should I be looking?What kind of position should someone with a Business and Technology Management degree look for?
    You are already in the right arena. A degree like yours is common amongst business and technical analysts, technical writers, information technology directors, information technology recruiters and information technology human resources management. Because you have experience as an assistant project manager, I might suggest you take a look at becoming a certified project manager. It might open more doors for you.



    You might also enjoy a role such as director of information technology or information systems manager.

    What is a close estimated amount of money that is spent on surveillance technology a year?

    I am working on a report over surveillance technology, and I was trying to look up a close estimate of how much money is actually involved in this technology a year. I tried looking on a few sites, but had no luck. Any help is appreciated!What is a close estimated amount of money that is spent on surveillance technology a year?
    for a home, it only cost to buy the camera, for a business, several thousands, over 10k.
