History of steam engine & James Watt's steam engine... and other info cover in this tutorial.
History of steam engine:
If the water kettle is placed on the stove, steam starts coming out of its spout after a while. Even after you saw the lid of the kettle moving, I thought, why does this movement occur in the lid?
Once upon a time, a boy in England used to think about this for hours. The boy grew up and developed a steam engine. of Baird who invented the steam engine. There was James Watt. James Watt was a carpenter. As a child, he was very weak and his parents used to write him at home
used to teach James Watt once noticed that the lid of a kettle on the stove was moving by itself.
When the lid was opened, steam would come out and the lid would be closed again. James watched the spectacle for a long time and was so fascinated by the game of steam that he often sat by the kettle. Sometimes he would close the tap and the steam would come out by pushing the lid on it. James himself did not know that the steam game would become the most famous event of his life and that the power of steam that lifts the lid would one day drive huge machines. James had many toys, sometimes he would take the parts of the toys apart and then try to put them back together.
At the age of ten, James' father enrolled him in school. For two or three years, he did not take much interest in reading and writing. His attention was always focused on his toys. At the age of thirteen, he started studying mathematics. It was said that mathematics helped him to make maps, measure things and make various toys. James sometimes went to his father's shop. His father and artisans used to make things in the shop. James looked at them carefully and made small models of these objects with his tools. Now he was also fond of reading books. James' father enrolled him in a college in Glasgow. At his lodge, James studied mathematics and science, and then James moved to London. In London, he trained to make scientific instruments.
When James grew up, he realized that the power of steam that he had admired as a child had been harnessed by man. In those days, a man named Thomas Neukom invented a steam powered pump. This pump was used to pump water out of all the coal and metal mines in England. Jay's Watt made science instruments for Glasgow University and the university laboratory also had a steam pump made by Newcomer. Once this pump broke down. A university professor asked James Watt to fix the pump.
While repairing the pump, James realized that the full power of the steam was not being used in the pump. A lot of work can be done. James Watt improved the pump, then he built a new pump that worked three times faster than Newcomen's pump. When this pump was installed in a mine, it pumped out all the water in the mine in seventeen days. Gave. This water used to come out from Newcomer's pump in two months.
You may think that the method of working with steam was discovered by Newcomers, then why James Watt is called the inventor of the steam engine.
This is because Newcomers invented the method of using steam. It could only be used to operate pumps, but James found a way to operate money with the help of steam, with the help of which all kinds of machines could be operated. After James built this steam engine, he registered it, but he did not have enough money to build many such engines.
With Mr. Bolton's help, James opened an engine factory in Birmingham. Very soon these steam engines were seen in factories all over England. Thanks to this steam engine, the industry of England developed a lot. Until the invention of electric locomotives, all major factories were powered by steam. Later, seeing this steam engine, George Stephenson built a train engine.
James Watt made a lot of profit from the engine factory, but he did not want to accumulate wealth and spent all the money on experiments to improve the engine. The work of making an engine was very difficult and required hard work. When James Watt reached the age of 64, he retired from this work.

Death of James Watt
He died in 1891 at the age of 83. The British people respected him a lot, after his death he was buried in the royal cemetery and a monument was built on his grave.
This is a memorial to James Watt. Who, by harnessing the power discovered by an inventor, built the steam engine, who increased the strength of man and opened the way to the prosperity of his country, and who, by his ability, earned for himself an important place among all scientists. Achieved.
