EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing image, Slide 39 from the Hargrave collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, showcases a small Laval turbine ingeniously mounted on a screw. The Laval turbine, named after its inventor, French engineer Georges Laval, is a type of steam turbine that utilizes a centrifugal pump as its first stage. This design innovation significantly reduced the size and weight of steam turbines, making them more suitable for various applications, including aeronautical engineering. In this photograph, the Laval turbine's compactness and intricacy are on full display. The turbine's blades, meticulously arranged in a radial pattern, spin rapidly when steam is introduced, generating power through the conversion of thermal energy into mechanical energy. The screw, with its threaded shaft, serves as a mounting mechanism, securely anchoring the turbine in place. The potential applications of this small Laval turbine in the field of transport are vast. Aviation, in particular, could greatly benefit from the reduced size and weight of steam turbines, leading to more efficient and lightweight aircraft designs. However, this image is not an advertisement for a specific company or product, but rather a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the engineers and inventors who have shaped the transportation industry throughout history. The marriage of the Laval turbine and the screw in this photograph is a fascinating example of how seemingly unrelated technologies can be combined to create something new and groundbreaking. It serves as a reminder of the endless possibilities that arise when we push the boundaries of our knowledge and imagination.
