1 answer

Charles Parsons' invention of the steam turbine altered the idea of using steam power for mechanical work. Previously, steam engines operated on a piston mechanism, converting steam pressure into linear motion. Parsons' steam turbine, on the other hand, used a rotating design that directly converted steam energy into rotational motion, leading to greater efficiency and power output.
