In which year were steam powered machines invented?

Answer 1

Heron of Alexandria invented a steam powered rotating ball in Circa 100 AD. This is the first recorded steam power.

Thomas Savery (1650-1715) was an English military engineer and inventor who in 1698, took out a general patent covering all possible means of pumping water by steam power. It was based on Denis Papin's Digester or pressure cooker of 1679.

Thomas Savery had been working on solving the problem of pumping water out of coal mines, his machine consisted of a closed vessel filled with water into which steam under pressure was introduced. This forced the water upwards and out of the mine shaft. Then a cold water sprinkler was used to condense the steam. This created a vacuum which sucked more water out of the mine shaft through a bottom valve.

Thomas Savery later worked with Thomas Newcomen who had actually invented the atmospheric steam engine and had to share his success with the patent holder.

The first steam engine was invented by Thomas Newcomen in 1712 to pump water from mine, the first being installed in 1712 close to Dudley castle in the Black Country.. Later improvements were made by James Watt And Richard Trevithick.

Richard trevithithick made one of the earliest steam locomotives: locomotion. whi cwheels made it so it derailed quite frequently. Robert stevenson made another called the rocket and has taken much credit for the invention of the steam valve but it was the engineer of sans parell timothy hackworth who invented it.

William Symington invented Efficient Steam Navigation. He was a native of Leadhills, Lancashire and Scotland.

Answer 2

By the 1830's, factories began to use steam power instead of water power. Many machines that were driven by steam were powerful and cheap to run. Also, factories that used steam power could be built anywhere, not just along the banks of fast-moving rivers like they had been before. As a result of this, American industry expanded rapidly. At the same time, new machines made it possible to produce more goods at a lower price. These more affordable prices attracted eager buyers. Families no longer had to make clothing and other things in their homes. Instead, they could but factory-made goods.
