JAMES WATT
Born on January 19, 1736 Greenock, Scotland He died on
August 25, 1819 (83 years old) in Birmingham, England He
was a Scottish mechanical engineer, inventor and chemist.
The improvements they made in the Newcomen machine
recognized the place known as the steam engine, which was
fundamental in the development of the first Industrial
Revolution, both in the United Kingdom and in the rest of the
world
He created the unit called the steam horse to compare the
output of the different steam engines, it is still used, especially
in vehicles
Watt invented the parallel movement to convert the circular
movement to an almost rectilinear movement.
I admire him for the simple reason that he discovered,
analyzed, invented, deciphered great things from the branch
of mechanical engineering, the career he studied.
