Many men developed the steam engine. It was a process of evolution, so that it would be difficult to pin down to two men. I would think that Newcomen, Watt, Boulton, Leupold, Smeaton and Trevithick all played parts in this.

Which two men were responsible for the steam engine?

The first person to harness the power of steam was the Greek scientist Heron of Alexandria in the first century A.D. He developed several devices that were operated by water, steam, or compressed air, including a fountain, a fire engine, and the steam engine. The steam engine was significantly improved in 1711 by Englishman Thomas Newcomen (1663-1729), who created a machine that used steam to pump water. The Scottish inventor James Watt (1736-1819) substantially improved on Newcomen's model and patented (received exclusive rights to make, use, and sell) his own steam engine in 1769.
