The difference between steam turbine and reciprocating engine is given bellow: Steam Turbine Reciprocating Engine In steam turbine working fluid is steam. In reciprocating engine working fluid is fossil fuel. Steam turbine efficiency is high and it is more than 60 %. Reciprocating engine efficiency is low and it is 30 to 40 %. Steam turbine vibration is low. But reciprocating engine vibration is high. Steam turbine has proper balancing. Reciprocating engine is unbalance or weak balance. Steam turbine lubrication is negligible. Reciprocating engine lubrication is major. Steam turbine design is simple. Reciprocating engine complex and compact. It is design for high power output. It is design for low power output. Steam turbine generates uniform power. Reciprocating engine do no
