| Q: | Ask a Question about Thomas Savery |  |
Thomas Savery (c. 1650-1715) was a British engineer who invented the steam-driven water pump, precursor of the steam engine, in 1696.Short Biography:
The pump used a boiler to raise steam, which was condensed (in a separate condenser) by an external spray of cold water.
The partial vacuum created sucked water up a pipe from the mine shaft; steam pressure was then used to force the water away, after which the cycle was repeated. Savery patented his invention in 1698.
