POLZUNOV, THE INVENTOR OF THE STEAM ENGINE

1. A steam engine to meet industrial requirements was first put into operation in a far-away Siberian town, Barnaul, in August 1766. That first steam "fire" engine was invented and constructed by Polzunov, a self-taught men, the son of a Russian soldier.

2. Polzunov was born in 1728, in the Urals, in the city of

Ekaterinburg. He began working when be was 14 at a Ural plant and in a short period of time became an outstanding specialist in the metallurgical industry.

3. Polzunov was quite familiar with the technical problems of his day and among them with those of power engineering which was based on water wheels. In spite of the fact that the water wheels constructed by Russian specialists were the best in the world, their use at the time had one great disadvantage. They required water and because of it works and factories had to be built far from raw material sources.

4. Polzunov wanted to put an end to this dependence upon water. He had great experience as well as a good knowledge of theory. As a result of his steady scientific research, Polzunov worked out the design of the first fire-operated machine that could be used instead of the water wheels.

5. The construction of this engine involved difficulties and hardships. Polzunov had to do almost everything with his own hands. He did all the designing and drawing. In addition to it, he created the required instruments and machine parts and made them. Such hard conditions of work completely ruined his health.

6. At last all the parts were assembled and the engine was quite ready to be put into operation. It was a machine working on steam pressure with two cylinders used by Polzunov in order to provide continuous action. The first test proved to be a success. However, Polzunov did not live to see the results of his work. He died in poverty on May 27, 1766.

7. Later on thanks to Janes Watt the steam engine found its further development.
