تاريخ

أول صانع للقطارات هو ريتشارد تريفيثيك (18331771) من بلاد الغال فسنة 1803م أوعز اليه بصنع قاطرة بخارية قادرة على الربط بين مصاهر الحديد ببنيرام وقرية أبرسينون التي تبعد حوالي خمسة عشر كلم . فأنجز قاطرة تزن خمسة أطنان أطلق عليها اسم "ساوث ويلس" وفي أول تجربة لها يوم 24 فيفري 1804م جرت وراءها حمولة تزن 20 طناً وبسرعة 8 كلم في الساعة . ثم ستجر بعد ذلك 25 طناً إلا أن ثقلها أحدث عطباً في السكة فوضع حد لتجريبها . وعلى كل حال فقد برهن هكذا على أن الأحمال الثقيلة الهامة يمكن جرها بفضل التصاق العجلات بالسكة باستعمال جرارة من ذلك القبيل

ملاحظات

^ E.C.E.:  An external combustion engine has heat supplied to the working fluid of the power cycle by an external source. The external combustion engine allows the burning of virtually any fuel as the heat source for the engine. This explains the success of this engine, because less expensive and/or more renewable or sustainable fuel or heat sources can be used, because the working fluid remains separated from the fuel, and therefore cleaner, which results in less maintenance and longer engine life.

This is contrasted to the generally more familiar form of heat engine (known as an internal combustion engine) in which the working fluid of the power cycle is the gaseous products of the combustion process, and the heat is added to the cycle by combustion of fuel internal to the machine. Typical gasoline/petrol and diesel engines are internal combustion engines.(see: Otto cycle)

Steam engines have therefore been classed among external combustion engines.

Published: 4 November 1921. Application number: 12341/1920. Applied: 4 May 1920; 13261/1907. Improvements in steam turbines and other multiple expansion elastic fluid prime movers. Applied 7 June 1907 (in Italy 7 June 1906). Published 7 August 1908.
