Ein Jahrzehnt vor der amerikanischen Revolution wurde der Glasgower Instrumentenbauer James Watt mit der Reparatur einer Newcomen-Dampfmaschine beauftragt. Er erkannte schnell, dass die Konstruktion durch Hinzuf\u00fcgen einer externen Kondensatorspule verbessert werden konnte, was den thermischen Wirkungsgrad erheblich steigerte. Die Wattsche Dampfmaschine fand bald weite Verbreitung im Bergbau, in der Textilindustrie und in anderen Branchen. M\u00fchlen und Fabriken entstanden, Arbeiter zogen in die St\u00e4dte, und die Agrargesellschaft der Welt wandelte sich allm\u00e4hlich in eine mechanisierte Gesellschaft. Die erste industrielle Revolution hatte begonnen.<\/p>\n
Das industrielle Wachstum wurde jedoch bald durch einen Mangel an preiswertem Stahl gebremst. Wieder einmal \u00e4nderte eine einfache Erfindung - die Einf\u00fchrung von Druckluft in einen mit geschmolzenem Roheisen gef\u00fcllten Ofen - alles. Der englische Erfinder Sir Henry Bessemer lie\u00df sein neues Verfahren 1856 patentieren und begann damit, Stahl weitaus schneller und zu einem Bruchteil der Kosten konkurrierender Verfahren herzustellen. Die zunehmende Nutzung der Elektrizit\u00e4t und Henry Fords Entwicklung von Flie\u00dfbandproduktionsmethoden in den fr\u00fchen 1900er Jahren f\u00f6rderten diese zweite Phase der industriellen Revolution weiter und ebneten den Weg f\u00fcr unsere moderne Industriegesellschaft.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
