  • Combustion Engines-Image
    Combustion Engines - (259 companies)
    ...are internal combustion engines where the products of combustion are directed in a turbine inside the engine. The gas flow spins the blades of a turbine which generates power or does other mechanical work. They are smaller than most equivalent reciprocating...
  • Flexible Expansion Joints-Image
    Flexible Expansion Joints - (442 companies)
    Expansion joints connect two fixed assemblies or pipes and provide allowance for movement due to service load, shock, or thermal cycles. Description. Expansion joints connect two fixed assemblies or pipes and allow movement due to service load...
  • Steam Traps-Image
    Steam Traps - (227 companies)
    Thermostatic steam traps open and close with the expansion and contraction of a temperature-sensitive element. These traps operate on the difference in temperature between steam, the cooler condensate, and air. This classification includes balanced traps...
  •  
    Stirling Engines - (8 companies)
    Stirling engines produce mechanical power through the cyclic compression and expansion of compressible fluids, such as air and gases, by interaction with a heat source. Stirling engines produce mechanical power through cyclical compression...

    Steam and Gas Turbines - (78 companies)
    Steam turbines and gas turbines are rotating machines that extract energy from pressurized steam and/or from combustion gases. Types of Steam and Gas Turbines. There are two basic types of steam turbines: impulse and reaction. Impulse turbines...
  •  
    Steam Valves - (239 companies)
    Steam valves are used to control the flow and pressure level of steam and heated water vapor. Steam valves are used to control the flow and pressure level of steam and heated water vapor. Steam is used in a large number of industrial applications...
  •  
    Steamers and Steam Generators - (118 companies)
    Steamers and steam generators produce steam vapor for cleaning, oxidation, and other process functions. They heat water above the boiling or vapor point to convert the water into high-temperature water vapor or steam. When water is heated...
