Abstract

See full text

A steam engine receives steam from a boiler which is heated by hot gas produced by a burner. The flue gas from the boiler is used to heat the body of the steam engine. The body of the steam engine has a plurality of passages which are shaped and dimensioned to receive and pass the flue gas, so that the flue gas heats the body, and thereby increases the power and efficiency of the steam engine.
