A steam engine is a heat engine that performs mechanical work using steam as its working fluid. The steam engine uses the force produced by steam pressure to push a piston back and forth inside a cylinder. This pushing force can be transformed, by a connecting rod and crank, into rotational force for work.

O motor a vapor de Thomas Newcomen foi inventado por Thomas Newcomen em 1712 e é também chamado de máquina atmosférica de Newcomen. O motor é operado pelo vapor de condensação introduzido no cilindro, criando assim um vácuo parcial, permitindo assim que a pressão atmosférica empurre o pistão para dentro do cilindro.
