And now I tried understanding the difference between engine and machine.
It seems to me as if I understood nothing about such matters back in school and, so rightfully, I am not a silly engineer.
Unbelievable what I am reading and understanding at this stage of my life. Word Blindness, atrocious!
First Google result on my screen:
Machine with moving parts converts the power into motion. A machine consumes energy whereas an engine produces energy. Engine converts heat energy to Mechanical Energy but machine converts all forms of energy to mechanical energy except heat energy. A engine runs a machine, without an engine a machine can’t run.
As much as I like to believe this, it sounds misleading. That last sentence above.
Without an engine a machine can’t run?!?!?!
Really?
