| dbo:abstract | Arthur Woolf (listopad 1766, Camborne, Cornwall – 26. října 1837, Guernsey) byl inženýr, který se proslavil jako konstruktér vysokotlakých parních strojů. Jeho dílo má mimořádný přínos v oblasti rozvoje a zdokonalování strojů. (cs) Arthur Woolf (1766, Camborne, Cornwall – 16 October 1837, Guernsey) was a Cornish engineer, most famous for inventing a high-pressure compound steam engine. As such he made an outstanding contribution to the development and perfection of the Cornish engine. Woolf left Cornwall in 1785 to work for Joseph Bramah's engineering works in London. He worked there and at other firms as an engineer and engine builder until 1811 experimenting with high pressure steam and a much improved boiler. Whereupon he returned to Cornwall. Michael Loam, inventor of the man engine, was trained by him. When he returned to Cornwall, beam engine designs were crude, shackled by outdated Watt patents and poor engineering, struggling to compete with large water wheels, even used underground. He learned from Bramah that to move forward meant adopting much improved engineering techniques, for it was Bramah who invented quality control. Woolf was chief engineer to Harvey & Co of Hayle, the leading engineering and foundry works, at this time the largest in the world. They eventually swallowed up the rival Copperhouse Foundry run by Sandys, Carne and Vivian. For very many years they were the leading firm worldwide for drainage engines, even supplying 3 eight-beamed pumping engines to the Dutch government to drain the Haarlemmermeer (see Museum De Cruquius). By the time Woolf retired in 1836 the Cornish engine, largely due to his efforts, was a thing of magnificent beauty and efficiency. In 1803, Woolf obtained a patent on an improved boiler for producing high pressure steam. In 1804, he patented his best-known invention, a compound steam engine. (en) Arthur Woolf (* 1766 in Camborne, Cornwall; † 26. Oktober 1837 auf Guernsey) war ein Ingenieur aus Cornwall. Bekannt wurde er als Erfinder einer Hochdruck-Verbund-Dampfmaschine (Woolf compound steam engines), die auch Woolfsche Balanciermaschine oder auch Balancier-Dampfmaschine genannt wird. Ebenso für seinen Beitrag zur Entwicklung und Vervollkommnung von Hochdruck-Pumpmaschinen (Balancier-Pumpen), wodurch wegen der Verbesserung der Wasserhaltung größere Abbautiefen im Bergbau möglich wurden (siehe auch Richard Trevithick). Woolf verließ Cornwall 1785 um bei Joseph Bramah in London zu arbeiten. Er arbeitete dort und bei anderen Unternehmen als Ingenieur und Maschinenbauer. 1803 erhielt Woolf ein Patent auf einen verbesserten Hochdruckdampfkessel und 1804 auf die zweizylindrige Verbunddampfmaschine (engl.: Compound engine). 1811 kehrte er nach Cornwall zurück. Michael Loam, Erfinder eines Personen-Bergwerkaufzuges (Man engine) wurde von ihm ausgebildet. Woolf war Chefingenieur in der Gießerei und Maschinenfabrik in Hayle (Harvey & Co).
