Heat engine in engineering and thermodynamicshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamics , performs the conversion of heat energy to mechanical work by exploiting the temperature gradient between a hot "source" and a cold "sink". Heat is transferred to the sink from the source, and in this process some of the heat is converted into work.
