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 !!! That's an increase of between 400 and 500 times in available Power output for the whole country !!! A percentage increase of between 40,000 % and 50,000 % !!! So for every single Waterwheel in the year 1800, we now had between 400 and 500 James Watt type Steam Powered Engines in the year 1900, and you don't need a river of flowing water for each one either !!! If that's not an Industrial Revolution, then I don't know what is !!! And it was all due to James Watt's INVENTION of the world's first PRACTICAL Steam Engine! The Spinning and Weaving Revolution? Agricultural Revolution? Etc, etc? They are just natural IMPROVEMENTS due to increasing knowledge of the world around us, and Industrialisation that's been ongoing for over 2000 years. They don't compare with Watt's TRUE Industrial Revolution.
Watt wasn't the improver of the steam engine. Watt was the inventor of the first PRACTICAL High Pressure Steam Engine, an engine that provided Steam Power. James Watt dumped Thomas Newcomen's Atmospheric Power and Arkwright's Water-Power for Steam Power, ( I've never heard this mentioned in any Utube video, believe it or not! ). To achieve this he had to invent a new engine. The world's first PRACTICAL High Pressure Steam Powered Engine. His optional Separate Condenser didn't apply to the Newcomen atmospheric pump. It applied to his own invention, the Steam Engine. His condenser recirculated hot water and eliminated Atmospheric pressure, which opposes a steam engine. It made his own invention more efficient. Before him there were no practical steam engines. There were only Newcomen Atmospheric Pumps, which provided Atmospheric Power, a maximum of 10psi and that couldn't provide rotary power and Water-Wheels. After and because of James Watt's invention, The Industrial Revolution volution. The Newcomen atmospheric pump was a 70 years long dead-end. Watt's engine changed every single industry, including weaving and spinning, and created many more. So, he also invented the industrial revolution. Look up anything about James Watt and the first thing you'll get is the mantra " James Watt did not invent the steam engine ". It's so common and widespread, it's obviously a brain-washing exercise.
Bloomfield Colliery Near Dudley 1776: ' Birmingham, March 11th. On Friday last a Steam Engine constructed upon Mr Watt's new principles, was set to work at Bloomfield Colliery, Dudley. From the first moment of it's setting to work it made about 14 or 15 strokes per minute, and emptied the engine pit (which is about 90 feet deep, and stood 57 feet high in water) in less than an hour. This engine is applied to the working of a pump 14 inches and a half diameter, which is capable of doing to the depth 300 feet, or even 360 if wanted, with one fourth of the fuel that a common engine would require to produce the fame quantity of power. The cylinder is 50 inches diameter, and the lenth of the stroke is seven feet. These engines are not worked by the pressure of the atmosphere. Their principles are very different from all others.

Hello Mr Watt. My grandfather was in love with James Watt's steam engine work. My grandfather died when i was young and i don't have many memories of him, but one thing i distinctively remember him telling me is is about your ancestors work! I hope life is well for you.

THANKS FOR THAT,IVE STUDIED HIS LIFE MANY YEARS.OILDALE CA.IM DALE HAS A BIG JOB FEEDING THE MOTORS OF TODAY.
So Watt's son is how James Watt Sr. became an icon. But he's still a genius, not as good as Einstein but at least like Elon Musk or Ford.
I give my respect to the father of mechanical engineering
It would be odd if Watt hadn't seen a kettle boiling! ( allegedly).
