1. The industrial revolution
Steam powered devices, coal, and iron industry

2. Steam, coal, and iron inventors

3. Thomas Newcomen Birth and death Famous for Used for
Born Feb , in Dartmouth England, died Aug in London England.
Famous for creating the first invention that could harness steam to power something
The invention was used to clear water out of flooded coal mines, because miners wouldn’t be able to go down them.

4. James watt Birth and death Famous for Used for
Born Jan in Greenock Scotland
Died Aug in Birmingham England
Watt adapted Newcomen's steam invention to make it power machines
The invention was used to power machines that were too large to fit inside of homes like Arkwright's water frame

5. Abraham Darby Birth and death Famous for Used for
Born 1678 near Dudley England
Died March , Madeline Court England
Darby created coke (Compressed coal which was hotter and more efficient than coal, and coke could melt iron)
Coke was used to smelt down iron which was then turned into casting irons to make pots, pans and support for bridges.

6. Nicolas-joseph cugnot
Birth and death
Famous for
Used for
Born: Sept in Void France
Died: Oct in Paris France
Cugnot invented the first steam powered automobile which could be used instead of horse
It was used for transporting guns because he was a French military Engineer.

7. Steam Power

8. Evolution of steam power
Thomas Newcomen
James watt
Nicolas-Joseph cugnot
Created 1712
Created the first steam powered device which was made to get rid of water from mines.
Created 1765
Adapted Newcomen’s invention to use steam to power machines
Created 1769
A French engineer who made the first steam powered car for transportation of weapons

9. Add what steam power was used for

10. Coal INDUSTRY
Workers in mines would have coal carts chained to them and have to pull or push the carts for kilometres, without any light.

11. Evolution of coal All of these created lots of pollution
charcoal
coal
Coke
Wood
burns off volatile compounds such as water, methane, hydrogen
Mines
Coal would be mined and then brought to factories to power machines.
Coal is heated without air
Creates a better power compared to coal.

12. Coal Mining Fundamental thing in Britain
Large amounts of coal was needed to power all the new machines
Children, and men would work in the mines
Coal mining was a risky job
When a coal sliver was found the miners would go in all directions around it
Coal was a substitute for charcoal

13. Negatives effects of coal mines
Early death caused by diseases, cave-ins, black lung, floods, methane gas
Working long hard hours every day
Very low pay
Hundreds of feet underground
Saw the sun about once a week at a time
Children would get birth defects and stunted growth
Explosions would happen constantly

14. Coke Abraham Darby I Coke:
Used mostly for production of cast iron, pots and kettles
Created thinner and cheaper iron products when compared to his opponents
When coal is heated without air it creates coke
Coke is cheaper than using charcoal and more could be packed into a furnace
Would be create a hotter source of heat, smelting a larger amount of iron at a time

15. Iron
Men are working in a factory pouring liquified iron into molds to create items.

16. Casting iron/iron uses

17. Process of smelting iron
Iron factories were first near forests so that charcoal could be used
Coal was tried in the smelting process but because of the sulphur, the iron created would be too brittle for using
They would smelt or heat up the iron to melting point
The iron was then put into iron pigs (Iron ingots)
Then the iron could be reheated and used in molds or could be turned into bars
