Early Steam Engines
Across
- 4. This Inventor had a partnership with Thomas Savery and his invention was used to pump water out of mines
- 7. This type of factory used steam engines for powering blast furnaces and rolling mills
- 8. This Turbine used high pressure steam to startup generators at high speeds
- 9. This Engine was a type of rotary engine that used a triangular rotor
- 10. This Engine used 2 chamber the high pressure cylinder exhausted steam which then occupied the low pressure cylinder
- 11. This boat was used by the Union in the Civil War and its name is similar to a places in Kentucky
- 16. This Inventor harnessed high power steam and adapted his high-pressure engines to drive iron-rolling mills and to propel barges with paddle wheels
- 17. This Engine was the 1st efficient steam engine the piston separated condescending steam from the water
- 18. This steamboat had a lightweight engine that proved to be a better design for the Mississippi River
- 19. This steamboat was powered by a steam engine that powered the paddles wheel to propel the boat in the water
Down
- 1. This Inventor Solved Energy Wastage in steam engine and was able to get a patent on his engine
- 2. This engine was the first commercial steam engine
- 3. This Locomotive was in the world’s first railway journey
- 5. This steamboat was nicknamed Clermont and used a WattEngine
- 6. This Engine was not eligible for a patent and it worked by atmospheric pressure pushing pistons after the condensation of a steam created vacuum
- 11. This engine has steam flowing in one direction and this increases thermal efficiency
- 12. This Invention was self propelled and pulled unpowered cars
- 13. Homfray commissioned Richard Trevithick to apply his high-pressure engines to this locomotive
- 14. This Inventor started out as a military engineer
- 15. This type of factory used steam engines for faster and more efficient weaving
