While the Spaniard first patented a steam-operated machine for use in mining, an Englishman is usually credited with inventing the first steam engine. In 1698, Thomas Savery, an engineer and inventor, patented a machine that could effectively draw water from flooded mines using steam pressure.
In 1698, English engineer, Thomas Savery patented the first crude steam engine. Savery used his invention to pump water out of a coal mine. In 1712, English engineer and blacksmith, Thomas Newcomen invented the atmospheric steam engine. The purpose of Newcomen's steam engine was also to remove water from mines. In 1765, Scottish engineer, James Watt began studying Thomas Newcomen's steam engine and invented an improved version. It was Watt's engine that was the first to have a rotary motion. James Watt's design was the one that succeeded and the use of steam engines became widespread.
