    Research on the development of the ff:

    a. Watt’s steam engine


    - Steam was used to pump the water from the mines. Now, this might seem to
    have very little to do with modern steam-powered electrical power plants. The
    fundamental principles used in the development of steam-based power is the
    principle that condensation of water vapor can create a vacuum. The creation
    of vacuum by condensation. This link provides a simple illustration using a
    soft drink bottle and boiling water.  James Watt significantly improved and
    developed the steam engine over the second half of the 18th century, making
    it a truly viable piece of machinery that helped start the Industrial Revolution.
    The first major innovation of Watt's was to include a separate condenser so
    that the steam didn't have to be cooled in the same cylinder that contained the
    piston. This meant the piston cylinder remained at a much more consistent
    temperature, greatly increasing the fuel efficiency of the engine. 

    b. Steam Turbine
    - Steam engines and steam power was not a new concept when Parson began
    his explorations in the space. In fact, nor were steam turbines. Others had
    explored ways to use stream’s velocity to spin blades rather than using its
    pressure to pump pistons, in turn allowing rotors to spin at much greater
    speeds while requiring less raw fuel. What made Parsons’ design so
    important was its ability to keep rotational speeds moderate while also
    extracting as much kinetic energy from steam jets as possible. The world is a
    vastly different place to the one in which Parson designed his turbine, yet the
    fundamentals of his concept have changed very little. The results of what they
    achieve and the scales at which they work, however, have increased
    significantly

    c. Internal Combustion engine


    - A combustion chamber that is an integral part of the working fluid flow circuit.
    In an internal combustion engine the expansion of the high-temperature and
    high-pressure gases produced by combustion apply direct force to some
    component of the engine. The force is applied typically to pistons, turbine
    blades, rotor or a nozzle. This force moves the component over a distance,
    transforming chemical energy into useful mechanical energy.
