The film showcases the many benefits that heat engines bring to everyday modern life. The film also covers important features such as the differences between heat and temperature, how heat is converted into motion, and thermal efficiency. These demonstrations are done through animations and footage of different types of heat engines from early steam engines, steam powered locomotives, and gasoline and diesel internal combustion engines. It ends with reflections on the future, including with promising inventions like the gas turbine engine -- a type of continuous flow internal combustion engine. 0:09 Shell logo 0:21 Title “An Introduction to the Heat Engine”, 0:40 a lumber jack picks up an ax and begins hacking at a branch, 1:19 demonstration of transforming energy such as from food to movement, water to electricity, electricity to movement, and electricity to heat, 2:18 a motor cutting metal, 2:37 steam locomotive and diesel locomotive demonstrated as heat engines, 3:20 a historical overview of power generation from an elephant to a water wheel, 3:51 model of a basic steam engine, 4:14 17th C. drawing of a basic heat engine, 4:47 an early steam engine being operated by a man, 5:10 footage of different more advanced steam engines, 5:35 different application of steam engines from ships to agriculture and rail transport, 6:12 a model of an early internal combustion engine, 6:49 a kettle at boiling point, 7:29 two pots with different amounts of milk to demonstrate the difference between heat and temperature, 8:11 demonstration of how a steam locomotive uses heat to move, 9:08 demonstration of how a steam turbine in a power station works, 9:54 slow motion of gas being burned in an internal combustion engine of a car, 11:13 a man shoveling coal into the oven of a steam turbine, 12:01 footage of historic heat engines with the thermal efficiency percentage displayed on screen, 12:49 a New York Central diesel locomotive leaving the station. 13:47 snooker balls colliding and then the footage plays backwards so they rearrange, 14:44 a hot rod being shoved into a large ice cube, 15:29 the steaming discharge water from a steam engine flowing into a river, 16:17 animation of how steam flows through a compound steam engine works with the different temperatures at each stage shown, 18:11 animation of the temperature range for a more efficient three cylinder engine, 18:35 animation how a steam turbine works with different temperatures shown, 19:31 the inside of a diesel cylinder engine shown compared to a gasoline engine, 20:33 Steam turbine shown side by side with a compound steam engine, 21:09 an aircraft gas turbine shown running, 22:14 historical overview of different steam engines from the first one all the way through to a car at a gas station, which is being filled with gas by the service station attendant. 22:53 Title “Shell: The End” We encourage viewers to add comments and, especially, to provide additional information about our videos by adding a comment!
