A gas that is produced when a liquid evaporates or when a solid sublimates, often associated with the heating process.
The form of water that exists in the air as a result of evaporation, commonly referred to as water vapor.
A traditional term referring to boats powered by steam engines, specifically indicating maritime transport that utilizes steam as a source of propulsion.
Example:
そのエンジンは蒸気で動く。
The gaseous form of water that occurs when water evaporates, often invisible, but can condense into tiny droplets in the air, creating a mist-like appearance.
A colorless and odorless gas produced from the transformation of liquid water through heat or boiling, which can sometimes be visible when it condenses and forms clouds or fog.
An aerial form of water that results from evaporation, which may also refer to the fine droplets created when this gas cools and condenses in the atmosphere, commonly seen as steam or mist.
Example:
熱は水を水蒸気に変える。
A type of vessel that is powered by steam generated from boiling water, typically used for transportation on water.
A watercraft that operates using a steam engine, characterized by its ability to travel over water by harnessing steam as its primary source of propulsion.
A mechanical device that converts the energy of steam into motion, typically using high-pressure steam from a boiler to drive a piston back and forth, generating mechanical power.
An apparatus that harnesses the pressure of steam for propulsion, consisting of components that allow for the movement of pistons as steam expands, facilitating various mechanical operations.
A type of engine that utilizes vaporized water to produce mechanical energy, functioning through the cycles of steam production, pressure generation, and piston movement to create motion.
Example:
蒸気機関は熱を力に変える。
A type of train that uses steam produced from boiling water to generate power for movement.
A railway vehicle designed to pull trains, powered by steam engines that operate through the combustion of coal or wood.
An early form of locomotive technology that transformed transportation by using steam pressure to drive wheels and transport goods and passengers.
Example:
蒸気機関車は電車に取って代わられた。
