When Watt grew up, he went to a watch shop as an apprentice and learned how to maintain and repair watches. When Watt became an adult, he went to work at the University of Trass and repaired some teaching instruments used by teachers. Watt in the university is very eager for knowledge, and he also has some knowledge of mechanical manufacturing, so the professors in the university are very willing to help Watt. Watt will practice according to the theory given by the professor and try to make some amazing inventions. In the days when he helped the school repair precision instruments, Watt constantly enriched himself, and finally he could even discuss academic and technical issues with professors.
After Watt came into contact with the steam engine, he quickly discovered the shortcomings of the original steam engine and improved it. On both sides of the original steam engine, piston pushing devices were added and named as double-acting steam engines. This steam engine greatly improves efficiency and makes more comprehensive use of resources. Therefore, it is valued by members of the Royal Society and becomes one of them.
A good inventor is a person who likes to practice. They like to combine theory with practice and improve it. Outstanding inventors like Einstein and Tesla have not put them into practice. These inventors had a great influence on the environment of the area at that time. Britain is the birthplace of the early industrial revolution. Britain has the earliest technology and market economy, which is conducive to the birth of inventors, and the social resources at that time were also very rich. With the continuous development of the industrial revolution, it is precisely because of these outstanding inventors that Britain has become a powerful empire that will never decline.
