Did a paper on steam power last semester. Really mind-opening stuff and is the perfect way to understand where much of the world comes from. And what's fun is that many people think that the steam engine is gone, but the reality is that it just evolved to be much more efficient as a turbine than as direct kinetic power. Most of the world runs on steam power via electricity generation rather than it's earlier locomotive usage.
The first commercial steam-powered device was a water pump, developed in 1698 by Thomas Savery. It used condensing steam to create a vacuum which raised water from below and then used steam pressure to raise it higher. Small engines were effective though larger models were problematic. They had a very limited lift height and were prone to boiler explosions. Savery's engine was used in mines, pumping stations and supplying water to water wheels powering textile machinery.
I've never seen any Factories Powered by any Savery Pump or Newcomen Atmospheric Pumps. In Britain from 1800 to 1900. 20,000 Waterwheels decreased in number. Windmills decreased in number. The Englishman Thomas Newcomen's 1,500 Atmospheric Pumps disappeared. The Scotsman James Watt's 500 Steam Engines and their descendants increased in number to 10,000,000 !!! So for every SINGLE Waterwheel in 1800 we now had 500 Steam Engines!!! That's an increase in total Power output of 500 times for the whole country!!! And consequently it's production capacity. And it was all due to James Watt's Invention of the world's first PRACTICAL Steam Powered Engine.
If you want to talk about "the first engine *ever*" then you're wrong on at least two counts: 1. Thomas Savery built the first steam-powered mine pump in 1698. 2. Hero built the first steam turbine in the first century AD. The Newcomen Engine was merely the first *practical* engine.
@@martijnverschuren3578 That's a fair point, this applies only to steam engines which in turn are a subcategory of heat engines. Clock engines are typically powered by gravity or spring tension and when you include those power sources there are far more exceptions. Even if you limit only to heat engines you still find plenty more examples which pre-date the Newcomen Engine.
I showed up here after watching the Technology Connection series about lanterns (and, essentially, pre-electricity light), in which he shocked me by mentioning that the (now) basic concepts of combustion weren't understood until the 1770s...That really sparked my interest (no pun intended). I wanted to understand the origins of a piston-driven engine, and this video was a lovely explanation. Now to find a small-scale Newcomen engine to set up in my back yard. I'm sure the wife won't mind XD
Well, you can figure it out yourself, although you can't be certain about it. I think it works like this: When water cools down the steam and the pressure in the cylinder goes down, the valve of the boiling water and that other valve which I don't remember the name of opens. And when the steam fills the cylinder again, the valve of the water opens due to high pressure.
I think the original question has not been answered yet: how are the valves opened and closed? For example, does person need to do manually (at 12 cycles per minute I think that this would be feasible, especially if someone needed to just flip a lever) or is it done by linkages? Or it could be bit of each, with person doing the first openings and closings, and maybe doing timing adjustments while the engine is running. I saw an at least partly manually controlled engine at a museum at Kew, London, UK some years ago.
I would love to see a video in this level of detail about Watt's innovations too. Hell, I would love to see a video in this level of detail about pretty much anything! Congrats! I can only imagine how many hours were spent to achieve such a quality.
Very educative. I learn a lot from you. In Africa, teaching is not detailed and no teaching aid for instruction. Your animation simplified the concept. Now I know the myth behind steam engine. Thank you
Everyone knows that this channel deserves much more attention, subscriptions and views, and missing all of that on the channel can be a reason to leave RUclips, but you are still going and we, the little part of RUclips who watches your videos respect your work and wish you had as many views and subscribers as you really deserve...
This is what I'm thinking about for a long time. 3D rendered educational videos. Maybe some day it can even become a standard. I can already see where this idea can grow: interactivity, so it becomes Interactive 3D Unreal Engine Educational Simulations. We can expand this even further: VR.
That's exactly what I was thinking when I started. I even learned a bunch of Unity before deciding to animate in Blender. Making interactive 3d models and lessons are a little ways off still.
ARGH, Real question becomes how are the valves working and how are they piped. Intake manifold and exhaust manifolds are always something I have a hard time picturing in my mind in 3-D models.
According historians and books, the first steam machine was patented by Thomas Savery in 1689. But in 1600, almost one hundred years before, Jerónimo de Ayanz had patented in Spain, one steam machine similar to that patented by Savery. These machines were used to pump out water in flooded mines, and is the first use of steam with industrial purposes; this device it is considered to be the precedents for James Wat's steam engines
The valves were operated by links and rods which were moved by the rising and falling of the inner end of the beam. There were handles attached to them so the could be set by hand to anticipate the starting of the engine.
Newcomen's engine was simple to build at the time with the technology they had. So even though it was not very efficient, it was much better than the animal power that had been powering the pumps before it. The mine owners saw how much better it was and were happy to spend the money to get one. And when Watt made the pitch that a pressure powered engine would use much less fuel to do the same job, the mine owners were happy to pay the higher price for the new engines that were more complicated, and harder to make. Machine tools got more accurate to bore the smoother cylinders that the Watt engines required. A whole cascade of technological improvements were kicked off by Newcomen's invention.
Gotta start somewhere. I remember my grandmother had some ancient encyclopedias and I looked up internal combustion engine and about all it showed was as far as new experimental engines used in the NEW automobiles people were building. It was mostly about the Otto cycle ( as a new thing ) and I vaguely remember it describing someone before Otto trying to make a piston engine run on gun powder. The encyclopedia were so old I remember looking up television and it didn't have ANYTHING I often remembered that that whenever someone like ' Mythbusters ' would bring it up.
It only takes 2 lb of steam pressure to fill a 44 gallon steel drum but when the drum is sealed and the steam condenses the drum will crush under the force of the atmospheric pressure on the outside surface.
Great video but the title triggered one of my pet peeves. The first steam engine turbine was the Aeolipile. However the engine you described was the first one to be useful in any way shape or form.
Much as a Brit and a Scot (James Watt), I would like to claim credit for the first engine, The Egyptians had a steam turbine engine in the 1st century called the Aeolipile.
I could not agree with you more about this engine. Ninety nine percent of people do not realise what we owe to this engine…basically everything! There is not a product or process that could not be traced back to this engine and the ones that came after it. Then there is the subject of metallurgy. Now that we are inventing these new engines, what are we going to make them out of? Let’s invent cast iron. Ok, how are we going to machine it? Let’s invent tool steel. The development of engineering also lead to the creation of new standards. George Whitworth standardised threads, nuts and bolts etc. I would say that the Newcomen engine is the greatest invention of all time, possibly only beaten by the wheel. We can only speculate how the world might have turned out it this engine had not been invented. Great video.
I really like the format. I think your descriptions are good except for the atmospheric pressure. In the case of the steam you are using a change in energy so the balls should bounce a lot and bounce less depending on the energy. The atmospheric is a static pressure so it should be a matrix of balls just sitting on top since their energy is not being discussed. It is essentially an unchanging force like a barbell weight on top of the cylinder.
No. Atmospheric pressure is exactly what this author depicts. It is the sum of the forces that the atmospheric air molecule bounces to the surface divided by area.
Clarity is in the eye of the beholder, I suppose. These were the most confusing drawings ever seen. Like that baby elephant trained to hold a paintbrush.
Saw an increadable full size working reproduction this same steam engine in the British Natural History Museum in London. The size and attention to engineering detail was amazing.

It's in the science museum. There us also a working replica in the Black Country museum near Birmingham. The oldest one still in its original building is open to view in a place near Barnsley.
This looks the same as the Cornish Machine still functioning in The Cruquius gemaal in Haarlemmermeer in The Netherlands. The main cylinder with a diameter of 3,6 meters driving 8 pumps like the one here. Each stroke delivers 64 cubic meters of water 5 meter higher!

Newcomen's 70 years long Atmospheric Power was a dead-end branch on that tree.
Watt's Steam Power was the root of the modern World.

O how we have changed now you need a 10,000 dollar scanner to figure out your fuel cap is missing great job 👍
I understand pressure which is what most of the video states. I was mostly curious as to how the water valve opens when needed.
Does the little amount of vacuum open the valve for water to create more?
Wonderful
