How does the heat of a fire become rotation of a wheel?

A steam engine hands the heat of a fire to water, makes steam pressure, and turns that push into rotation through the piston and the rods. Here you follow the conversion heat -> pressure -> straight motion -> rotation one step at a time.

Background reference: Encyclopaedia Britannica: Steam engine.

Use the three 30-second discovery buttons to open the highlights of heat, pressure, and the driving wheels first.
