      This can be debated.
      It was a rediscovery of sorts tho - ancient greeks and later the romans that used "borrowed" greeks to do the heavy maths for them knew of the power of steam and how to put it to use.
      Romans technically had everything to kick off industrialisation - they didnt because slaves where way cheaper...

      @@billklatsch5058 A recreation of an invention is not a discovery. There are no steam engines in nature. An analogy I like to use is the wheel. The roller is a discovery - someone was pulling something heavy and it got easier when it ran over a round tree limb. But joining a wheel to an axle and mounting it in a bearing was 100% invention. The steam engine is just like this.

    What about the Sharrow props that have been the rage in the boating news? I thought they were supposed to enter the cargo shipping industry soon. No mention of them here. I can't imagine an industry that would benefit more from increased prop efficiency than shipping.

    • @MascottDeepfriar
      @MascottDeepfriar 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      its possible that the efficiency doesn't scale properly to the size for large ships. the complexity and expense of making a sharrow prop at the size required for large shipping vessels might offset any gains they would see. The large ships also see much slower rotation speed so the issues that the sharrow prop addresses may not apply.

    • @brandonadams7837
      @brandonadams7837 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Sharrow props have to be CNC machined. There is not a CNC machine anywhere on the planet even half the size that can make one. It’d probably cost a few hundred million dollars to make a CNC machine that large. Also props that large have variable pitch and you can’t vary the pitch of a Sharrow prop otherwise you’d see them on the front of prop planes as well.
