    Yermak, the world's first icebreaker with a pneumatic anti-icing system. A pneumatic anti-ice system is a technology that uses air or another gas to prevent ice buildup on ships sailing in icy waters. It is housed below the waterline on the ship's hull. Pneumatic anti-ice systems use compressed air or engine exhaust as the working gas, which is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_generator

    A magnetohydrodynamic generator directly extracts electric power from moving hot gases through a magnetic field, without the use of rotating electromagnetic machinery. MHD generators were originally developed because the output of a plasma MHD generator is a flame, well able to heat the boilers of a steam power plant. The first practical design ...

    Herreshoff steam generator in a Peruvian torpedo boat of 1879. A monotube steam generator is a type of steam generator consisting of a single tube, usually in a multi-layer spiral, that forms a once-through steam generator (OTSG). The first of these was the Herreshoff steam generator of 1873. [1]

    Marine engineering is the discipline concerned with the engineering design process of marine propulsion systems. V12 marine diesel engines . Human-powered paddles and oars, and later, sails were the first forms of marine propulsion. Rowed galleys, some equipped with sail, played an important early role in early human seafaring and warfares.
