How First Steam Engine Look like ! The first practical steam engine

The first practical steam engine, the Newcomen at mospheric engine, worked by using steam pressure to push a piston up in a cylinder, then rapidly cooling the steam to create a vacuum which allowed atmospheric pressure to pull the piston back down, essentially using the force of the air to drive the piston and perform mechanical work; this process was primarily used to pump water.
Key points about the early steam engine:
Steam generation: Fuel (like coal) was burned to heat water in a boiler, producing steam.
Cylinder and piston: The steam was directed into a cylinder where it pushed a piston upwards.
Condensation and vacuum: To pull the piston back down, the steam was quickly cooled, creating a partial vacuum in the cylinder, allowing atmospheric pressure to push the piston back.
