James Watt

'James Watt (1736-1819) ingenieur mecanicien ecossais, il crea la machine a vapeur utilisable industriellement, extraite de l'ouvrage 'Album de la science savant illustres grandes decouvertes' 1899 --- James Watt (1736-1819) scottish engineer and mechanic, he created steam engine which can be used in industry, engraving'

James Watt, Scottish engineer, 1815.

Portrait painted of James Watt, (1736-1819) by Sir Thomas Lawrence (1769-1830) in 1815. Scottish engineer and instrument maker who invented the modern steam engine which became the main source of power in the textile mills in Britain. His engine had a separate condenser through which steam from the cylinder was passed and cooled, allowing the engine to be kept hot. This reduced fuel consumption, saving time.
