A machine is a tool containing one or more parts that uses energy to perform an intended action.

Machines are usually powered by chemical, thermal, or electrical means, and are often motorized.

Historically, a power tool also required moving parts to classify as a machine.

However, the advent of electronics has led to the development of power tools without moving parts that are considered machines.

Pressure washing or power washing is the use of high-pressure water spray to remove loose paint, mold, grime, dust, mud, chewing gum and dirt from surfaces and objects such as buildings, vehicles and concrete surfaces.

The volume of a mechanical pressure washer is expressed in gallons or litres per minute, often designed into the pump and not variable.

The pressure, expressed in pounds per square inch, pascals, or bar, is designed into the pump but can be varied by adjusting the unloader valve.

Machines that produce pressures from 750 to 30,000 psi (5 to 200 MPa) or more are available.

Technology ("science of craft", from Greek, techne, "art, skill, cunning of hand"; and) is the collection of techniques, skills, s and processes used in the production of goods or services or in the accomplishment of objectives, such as scientific investigation.

Technology can be the knowledge of techniques, processes, and the like, or it can be embedded in machines which can be operated without detailed knowledge of their workings.

Steam is water in the gas phase, which is formed when water boils.

Steam is invisible; however, "steam" often refers to wet steam, the visible mist or aerosol of water droplets formed as this water vapour condenses.

At lower pressures, such as in the upper atmosphere or at the top of high mountains, water boils at a lower temperature than the nominal at standard pressure.

If heated further it becomes superheated steam.
