Actually, like many things, that is debatable among historians and steam lovers. Yes, Heron of Alexandra did make the first steam engine, but because of its primitive construction, (it was 800 AD after all) it wasn't seen as more than a toy, or novelty. Thomas Newcomen's engine from 1712, was an actual working machine, later improved by James Watt, James Rumsey, Richard Trevithick, and George Corliss, to name a few.
Yes James Watt, In India, Railways are the legacy left behind by the British, They made it so big that uptill now, railway budget was presented separately.It is sad to see Japanese engines in U.K., and as an Indian, feel PROUD TO PROVE 'Mr, WINSTON CHURCHILL' WRONG.
Robot voice, broken syntax, and anxiety-inducing music... perfect for my small children🤣 Let's grow up indeed! It's a shame, because the content is good
Good graphic attempt, unfortunately with several vital / basic functions being missed: How the steam assists / drives higher air-flow through-out the burn phase, the purpose of the dome, how the piston input / speed is regulated, how the size of the drive-wheels is of huge importance, how any train goes around a corner without slipping any drive wheel (no differential fiitted as in cars), what the max theoretical / practical gradient is and why.... nice colourful beginning....now fill in the gaps.
I have a doubt,if some one can answer it woul be great,it may sound silly Q1.In a steam engine,is the forward stroke speed equal to reverse stroke speed,i know they are not very different,but still if there is a difference of seconds or micro seconds Q2.if the forward stroke pressure(or force)is similar to reverse stroke pressure(or force) Plz answer my two question,i am a student Thanks in advance
@@CombraStudios it actual did dry the steam BUT many in later years were made with it as standard equipment and earlier that came out without it were refitted with super heaters . the main reason those later steam engine became more powerful was direct result of the super heater super heated steam is under higher boiler pressure and temperatures hence more stored energy to create more power. the few locos not capable of being refitted with super heaters slowly became scrap or sat in storage yards rotting away for years until they ended up in private hands or delegated to small lines

Thanks and great job on uploading this video! I'm improving my mechanical skills and this video gave a crystal clear demonstration! That'll be a great resource to look back upon if I ever decide to build my own steam-powered train engine!
Why is the audio all messed up and cutting in and out with two different music tracks playing?? Super distracting from the otherwise very interesting video
The smoke box has an "ejector" powered by the spent steam which sucks exhaust gases forward thru the boiler. Without this, hot gasses would not flow thru the boiler and out the smokestack (not "chimney").

The safety valves do prevent the pressure from rising too high, however an explosion can occur. If the correct water level is not maintained. When it is too low the tubes overheat and will explode at normal pressure.@@UncaAlbyGmail
Dear all , I'm not a specialist in English language , this mean all mistake from my language is accepted.Yes, exist mistakes in this presentation but instead to claim all the time you can start to correct this. 1) Steam engine is an engine what transform one type of energy in another type of energy. First time CHEMICAL ENERGY is transformed in THERMAL ENERGY ( carbon burn and produce heat ). THERMAL ENERGY is transferred to the boiler and start to be PRESSURE ENERGY ( water accumulate heat and pressure increase ). PRESSURE ENERGY is transformed in MECHANICAL ENERGY using different device ( boiler what transfer pressure energy to the wheel of train using cylinder). 2) To the loco you have different type of valves - Pressure Safety Valve ( installed to the loco to not explode the boiler because of high pressure ), Regulation Valve what control the amount of steam what goes to the cylinder and increase or decrease speed of train, Return Valve what is used to return a part of steam to put in function pump for water and several type of valves used to the loco. For all the people what have knowledge about steam loco ( how work, what is most important parts, etc. ) is good to spread all this information and STOP to be hater. First step to be good start from us, from inside. To accept mistake of others and to correct him in a polite way. Try to do this. Good luck to everybody !
Dear Mr Soft (or can I call you Hard for short.) (No pun intended) Your English is fine. It's your message I'm having trouble with. The part about stop being a hater. What am I missing? Sounds a little paranoid, like the "loco" isn't the only one that is 'smoking' here. Just curious. Thanks.
hard you soft go you back to corner the mechanical voice out line the basic principle it does............ there maybe you understand that in you own style non engrish....... the function as he states is just explaining basic concept you can make as complex or as simple as possible a script for the cg voice to relate just sit back and think of the process
I love the animation and description but I have to say I'm still confused about a few things. I understand this is a "intro to" kind of video and as such is great. I'm just wanting to know more about the idea that super heated steam isn't just pressurizing everything.
I would also like to pay homage in our own modern time to the American Doble Brothers, and their own development of their steam car. I know this is off topic, however they did what so many engineers did, they worked hard to modify and improve an idea. I believe their papers are lodged with an American university, which will allow free online views. I salute the engineering skills that made steam possible, let us hope we never lose great skills like these.👍
Always wonder about one aspect, which is not relevant to working, but makes the presentation of the steam engine unique. The smoke can easily go out from chimney, BUT why it is thrown up in a sequence (say when the engine starts to roll). It appears the whoosh whoosh of the smoke from the chimney is result of some process. Can you please explain! Otherwise an excellent video explaining everything.
if i understand ur question, the chugga chugga or whoosh whoosh is created by the exhaust of the steam from the cylinders and the timing of the cylinders valves. this steam exhaust also aids in pulling the burnt fire gas etc... out the chimney as well.
at 1.34 to 1.35 the video shows two blastpipes (in blue) in what should have been called the smokebox. (the video missed that because the firetubes inside the boiler were wrongly named smokebox ) These blastpipes are connected to the cylinder exhausts. The exhaust steam still has some pressure left, so it shoots up into the smokestack which is right above those blastpipes. In the process dragging along a good deal of smoke. There is no constant stream of exhaust steam, only instantly, determined by the exhaust valves. Left and right cylinders added, there are four blasts per rotation. The blast is choked and muffeled by the smoke, hence the typical *choo choo* sound
The slide valve that admits the steam at one end also allows steam to escape at the other end. The first animation of the steam flow is not correct. Steam is not admitted BETWEEN the pistons.
If used steam exited thru chimney, do they constantly feed fresh water into the boiler to compensate for the lost steam? Was it not condensed and recycled?
Newcomen made the first steam engine in 1712 James Watt improved Newcomens design The first steam Locomotive was made by a Cornish man Richard Treveithick and ran from Mrerthyr Tydfil to Abercynon
The Steam dome houses both the safety valve and regulator valve. True there are two domes but one dome is the sand dome Witch houses the sand for traction
Well, not going to view "Let's Grow Up" videos. Just HIRE someone to do the voice over. Also, the super heater exchange is incorrect. You have it being heated by the water. A smaller sealed tube of steam goes into one of the larger exhaust tubes. The exhaust gas, which is hotter than the water in the tank, then super heats up the steam which then flows back out and is used to power the drive wheels.
Nice video, making learning interesting and effort less, design modification and safety arrangements for steam engine s must be continued as it would be directly advantageous to steam boilers in industries
Thomas is a tank engine who lives at the big station on the Island of Sodor. He's a cheeky little engine with six small wheels, a short stumpy funnel, a short stumpy boiler and a short stumpy dome.
The basic idea is really good as is the presentation of the basics. That said, the voice over needs changed out and --- Please! ---- get rid of the death dirge music.
I can't demonstrate it, but I can explain it the best I can :) Part of the valve gearing which controls where steam enters the cylinder can be adjusted with a lever located inside the cab. It moves the pivot point of this specific part so it moves in a specific direction, so that way, steam enters the opposite side of where it enters the cylinders when going forward, allowing the locomotive or engine to run in reverse. I didn't really explain this very well, but I hope it helps a bit 😊
My favorite things about what I like about the steam locomotives are (1) Most of them just only have one tender behind the cab, (2) Most of them have leading wheels, driving wheels, and trailing wheels; (3) Most of them are fueled by coal and water, (4) I like to watch the engineer blowing a whistle to the let people know that they're coming, and (5) I like to watch the fireman shovel coal into the boiler with fire inside which makes a lot of steam coming out of the smoke stack straight out of the cylinders (with pistons on the inside) connecting to the rods.
Thank you for that I'll have to steam trains specially and they do come to the city is very rare anyways thank you how do I run now I know thank you very much I love steam trains 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Do You Know "Who invented the steam engine... And when?" Let's Write your Answer
James Watt.
Though I think there was an ancient Greek drawing that demonstrated steam being converted to mechanical energy
Actually, like many things, that is debatable among historians and steam lovers.

The robotic voice kills this. A great video but can’t get over the cheap voice over
The invent of the steam engine is really a revolution of humanity.

Plz answer my two question,i am a student
Thanks in advance
Not all steam engines used super heating. That came years later as steam engines got larger and needed more power from the steam.
Main purpose of superheating is drying up the steam so water droplets don't condense inside the cylinders
@@CombraStudios it actual did dry the steam BUT many in later years were made with it as standard equipment and earlier that came out without it were refitted with super heaters . the main reason those later steam engine became more powerful was direct result of the super heater super heated steam is under higher boiler pressure and temperatures hence more stored energy to create more power. the few locos not capable of being refitted with super heaters slowly became scrap or sat in storage yards rotting away for years until they ended up in private hands or delegated to small lines

Steam engine...wonderful !
Right from my childhood, till today -- I am 63 -- I'm crazy about it !
Amazing sharing 💕nice 🌷content 🌻thnks💐 for 🌿good 💐work 🌺

Time and time again we see this - a fantastic animation video completely ruined by the most Christ-awful synthetic voice. Such a pity.
Great informative video except for the background sound which is quite annoying.
Great animation and info, but the robotic voice hinders the quality.
Beautiful!!
Actually it's amazing that more steam locomotives haven't exploded over the years.
that's what the safety valve is there for
In some countries, some steam locos have seen real regular use until over the turn of the centuries.
The safety valves do prevent the pressure from rising too high, however an explosion can occur. If the correct water level is not maintained. When it is too low the tubes overheat and will explode at normal pressure.@@UncaAlbyGmail
They blew up quite often in the early days. Beautiful machines but potentially still dangerous.
Good job for the video! It's cool
One of the best Engineering Machines in our Human Race . Awesome 👍👍👍
A good overview of the basic workings of a steam engine.
Very helpful and concise explanation! The visuals were a huge help too.
I wonder who are those who disliked the video even with so much in detailed explanation which is outstanding . .
maybe they could'nt stand the computer generated voice and horror music?
I always wanted to know how a steam engine works. This video is awesome. Thanks
Steam Locomotive's Are Very Special & Genius To Learn For US All To Enjoy 🚂
They are a 2 stroke that's for sure!
4 minutes ago I was but a clueless wimp...
Now I am a man with a basic understanding of the steam locomotive engine
A wonderful steam engine invented by James Watt which,,is still a wonder to kids and olds and for next generation also.
Most tutorials miss the Superheater section. Well done!

Thanks for this special information. I also like the background music that matches the theme of this video.
This is a unique locomotive to learn about steam trains!
Yay hi fellow robloxuan
Not as special as a garratt
steam engines are 2 stroke!

Now.I understand. Steam engine. Is good. Make people Happy.
Good thanks for share 👋
excellent work sir thank you🙏🙏
Woooww great work. And high learning video..
Nice video.. but also explain how the used steam escapes the cylinders..
The slide valve that admits the steam at one end also allows steam to escape at the other end. The first animation of the steam flow is not correct. Steam is not admitted BETWEEN the pistons.
I'm surprised how much Stephen hawking knows about steam engines
very nice information thank you am from India

Good explanation.... background music is irritating
Bro use your voice instead of the robot voice which helps you get higher views
If used steam exited thru chimney, do they constantly feed fresh water into the boiler to compensate for the lost steam? Was it not condensed and recycled?
the smoke from firebox goes out through chimney. Steam pushes the piston, probably condenses water is not used.
Very nice
This is the best video and better
I actually liked the music.

EXCELLENT ANIMATED PPRESENTATION
I feel like the music in the background make it seem like it’s all a conspiracy lol.
Useful advanced technology
thx im doing a project on science and tech and part of it is about how trains and steam engines work. :)
Simply and BEAUTIFULLY EXPLAINED.
please make more Informative Videos like this.
you don't need the background music.. make it stop
This tutorial only teaches those who already know how it works. A novice would still be in the dark.
Superb explaination simple and get to the point.
Very good video and music.
Nice video, making learning interesting and effort less, design modification and safety arrangements for steam engine s must be continued as it would be directly advantageous to steam boilers in industries
Ahhh my favorite type of steam engine
When he said “DOME” I felt that
Thanks for this
I've been thinking about it!

The only thing I like from the old day are steam Locomotives
Amaging.. Thanks from Indonesia
One thing..it is environment-friendly...so better than modern combustion engines
The english is kinda broken but nice video overall.
Love from India.
Well explained !!👍🏻👍🏻
Vey beautiful, congratulations!
Thank you so much sir
Mind blowing video in UA-cam
How does the locomotive change direction. Please demonstrate..
I can't demonstrate it, but I can explain it the best I can :)
Part of the valve gearing which controls where steam enters the cylinder can be adjusted with a lever located inside the cab. It moves the pivot point of this specific part so it moves in a specific direction, so that way, steam enters the opposite side of where it enters the cylinders when going forward, allowing the locomotive or engine to run in reverse. I didn't really explain this very well, but I hope it helps a bit 😊
This channel needs to find a narrator that can read and speak a language properly. Whichever language is chosen.
Excellent explanation
interesting! could you tell me the software you used for the animation?
Very instructive 🙋👍
Nice learning thank you very much
Thanx for tell about external combustion engine
Nice you video
Animation is good only and explanation can be improved
Thanks for the video.
this actually helped for school, thanks!
Very nice information
