Newcomen's engine was heated with steam being admitted to it, then the cylinder was cooled causing the steam to condense, creating a vacuum that drew the piston down, driving a pump. Watt improved upon this by building a separate condenser to keep from heating and cooling the cylinder, which caused thermal stress and cracking. Later with the help of Matthew Boulton they designed an engine that used the power of the steam itself (rather than a vacuum) to drive the piston in both directions, creating the first double acting engine.
What else can I help you with?
What improved the efficiency and design of newcomens steam engine?
James Watt
Did James Watts steam engine work better than Thomas Newcomens?
Yes, James Watt's steam engine was more efficient and effective than Thomas Newcomen's. Watt improved upon Newcomen's design by introducing a separate condenser, which reduced energy loss and allowed for greater fuel efficiency. This innovation made Watt's engine more practical for various applications, leading to its widespread adoption in the Industrial Revolution.

What was James watt's inspiration?
James Watt's inspiration came from trying to improve the efficiency of the steam engine, which was initially invented by Thomas Newcomen. Watt sought to make the engine more fuel-efficient and practical for a wider range of applications, leading to significant advancements in its design.

Why did James Watt invent steam engines?
because he was bored, i guess...? He did not invent steam engines, he did however make very important adjustments and additions to them. He was a person who was in a field of instrument making and repair (such as scientific and mathematical instruments, now all replaced by computers I assume) this is why when he was in the University of Cardiff, working in his workshop there, he was requested to try and fix one of Thomas Newcomens steam engines, perhaps not an instrument but he was a technician, and living during a time where professions were not as specialised as today I assume is why he still got given the duty. Because of his great opurtunity to work with one of the worlds leading machine designs at the time he was also able to understand how unefficient it was which was the reason he began thinking of ways to improve it. James Watt's steam engine was apparently 3x more efficient than Newcomen's. A rough number but it replaced nearly all of Newcomens Engines (I believe), it was far less coal Hungary and was an extremely frugal purchase, at the time mainly for mine diggers. So to some up he 'improved' Thomas Newcomen's steam engine because they were unefficient, it was he who did this because he was in a professional field which lead to a steam engine finding him and he could not refuse the chance of workign on one.
