The steam engine used to power other machines was invented by?
James Watt.
What are types of engines other than internal combustion engine?
Steam EngineJet turbine EngineRotary EngineElectric EngineRocket EngineThe term 'engine' was originally coined to differentiate the "internal combustion" motor from all other previous types of motors. In the above mentioned answer, one should note that the jet turbine, the rocket, rotary and perhaps even the steam engines do have some sort of internal combustion. The proper term for the electric should be "Electric Motor"
Why is superheating considered to be good in certain cases?
In steam engines you must superheat the steam to vaporize all of the microscopic water droplets suspended in it from when the steam was initially produced in the boiler. If this is not done those water droplets will pit the pistons and valves (or the turbine blades) eventually causing severe damage and possibly catastrophic failure of the steam engine.
Why you are maintain the vacuum in steam turbine explain me briefly?
why we are maintain vacuum in steam turbine at steam outlet or exhaust side
What are the pros and cons of a steam engine?
Locomotives transport food, coal, oil, and freight. This would be otherwise too heavy to fly with. It helps facilitate the world of commerce. However, they are very slow, loud and polluting to the environment.
What are some positive and negative effects of the steam engine?

What are the effects of the steam engine on industry and society?
The steam engine helped fuel the industrial revolution by giving a regular supply of power to factories and workshops.
What occurs in a steam engine?
Water is heated to produce steam. The steam is used to power the engine. The power from the engine does the work or powers other instruments that do the work.
Did the steam engine lead to other inventions?
yes modern steam engines

Why was the steam engine made?
The steam engine was made to get people and thier goodies to the west and many other places too.
Did Thomas Newcomen invent anything other than the steam engine?
no thomas newcomen did not invent and thing besides a steam engine
When was the first engine created that ran on steam power?
The first engine that ran on steam power was created in 1813 by George Stephenson, this led to the invention of steam engine trains and many other inventions.
What effects did the invention of the steam engine?
the invention of the steam engine in 1705 brought in a new source of power. the steam engine used fire to heatb water and produce steam.that why they invented a steam driven boat which allow people to send good quickly over river and canals. It increased the speed of trains. It revolutionised transportation

What type of combustion engine in the steam engine?
A steam engine is an external combustion engine. As the steam engine combusts outside of the engine itself.
Who invented steam engine to power other machines?
Many people have invented devices called "steam engines" that powered other machines. The inventor of the modern steam engine operated from the pressure of steam was James Watt. He had been asked to repair a failed Newcomen steam engine that was used to drive water pumps to keep a mine dry. The Newcomen steam engine was actually a vacuum engine operated by injecting steam at atmospheric pressure into a cylinder then condensing it to create a vacuum by spraying cold water into the cylinder. Watt recognized both the issues of alternating thermal stress and low efficiency of this design. He proposed to the mine owners instead of repairing the existing failed Newcomen steam engine with one of his own design. Since then all steam engine designers adopted variants of James Watt's steam engine.
