Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the evolution of the steam engine, focusing on the period when the doctrine of latent heat held sway. The author traces the development of the technology from the time of Savery's early experiments to the groundbreaking work of James Watt, whose invention of the separate condenser marked a pivotal moment in the history of steam power. Along the way, the book sheds light on the prevailing scientific understanding of heat, exploring the material theory of heat and its eventual displacement by the mechanical theory. By delving into the interplay between scientific knowledge and technological innovation, the author provides a deeper understanding of how Watt's invention revolutionized the industrial landscape and laid the foundation for the modern world.
