Aeolipile Mini Steam Engine Full Metal Engine Model Physics Education Toy
The Mini Steam Engine, inspired by the aeolipile, also known as Hero's engine, is a radial steam turbine. Its design, attributed to Hero of Alexandria between 10 and 70 AD, operates by heating water within a spherical container to produce steam. As the steam exits through nozzles directed at right angles to the radial direction, Newton's third law causes the steam to produce a torque, resulting in rotation.
