Thermal prime mover and non-thermal prime mover are the two main types of prime movers. Thermal prime movers are the types of prime movers which primarily use the thermal energy from a source to produce power. Some examples of thermal primary movers are heat engines, geothermal, solar energy, nuclear power plant and bio gas. Non-thermal prime movers do not use heat energy and can be subdivided into include tidal turbines, hydraulic turbines and wind turbines. This book presents the various engines and turbines which fall under the umbrella of thermal and hydro prime movers in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. It is appropriate for students seeking detailed information in mechanical engineering field as well as for experts.
