                                     GEORGE STEPHENSON

    George Stephenson was a British inventor and engineer. He is famous for building the first practical railway locomotive.

    Stephenson was born in 1781 in England. During his youth he worked as a fireman and later as an engineer in the coal mines of Newcastle. He invented one of the first miner’s safety lamps independently of the British inventor Humphrey Davy. Stephenson’s early locomotives were used to carry loads in coal mines. In 1823 he established a factory at Newcastle for their manufacture. In 1829 he designed a locomotive known as the Rocket. He could carry both loads and passengers at a greater speed than any locomotive constructed at that time. The success of the Rocket was the beginning of the construction of locomotives and the laying of railway lines.

                                                Architecture

     In the days of technological progress when people build millions of houses the problem of architecture is not an easy problem. Our homeland is a large territory. The housing problem is a difficult problem. 

     Some people say that they do not like the style of modern architecture with its too simple lines. They say that modern buildings look like big boxes and that all of them have the same face. 

     The style of modern architecture is certainly specific. Modern buildings are simple in construction and economic in time and money. It helps to do away with the housing problem. Fortunately architects think more and more about beauty of houses they build.

                                              JAMES WATT

     James Watt, a famous inventor and mechanical engineer, was born on January 19, 1736, in Scotland. He worked as a mathematical instrument maker from the age of 19 and soon became interested in improving the steam engine. He determined the properties of steam and the relation of its density to its temperature and pressure. He also designed a separate condensing chamber for the steam engine. It prevented large losses of stem in the cylinder. For this device Watt received his first patent in 1769.

     Watt patented rotary engine, the double action engine and the stem indicator.

In 1788 Watt invented the centrifugal or flyball governor. It uses the feedback principles of a servomechanism, linking output to input, which the basic concept of automation is. The watt, the unit of power, was named in his honor.

                                     JAMES PRESCOTT JOULE

     James Prescott Joule, famous British physicist, was born in 1818, in England. He is best known for his research in electricity and thermodynamics. He formulated the law of electric heating. Joule experimentally verified the law of conservation of energy in his study of the conversion of mechanical energy into heat energy.

    Joule determined the numerical relation between heat and mechanical energy or the mechanical equivalent of heat. The unit of energy, called the joule, is named after him. It is equal to 1 watt-second. Together with the physicist William Thomson (Baron Kelvin), Joule found that the temperature of a gas falls when it expands without doing any work. This phenomenon, which became known as the Joule-Thomson effect, lies in the operation of modern refrigeration and air-conditioning systems.
