  • Steven Hoogendijk (1 April 1698 – 3 July 1788) was a Rotterdam watch and instrument maker and physicist. His portrait to the right, shows him pointing to an early pyrometer from Pieter van Musschenbroeck with pumps in the background. In 1769, Steven Hoogendijk co-founded the Batavian Society for Experimental Philosophy, with a main aim of introducing the steam engine in the Netherlands, and with the motto: "Certos Feret experientia fructus" (experience will give reliable products).With the support of the Society at their own expense they brought a Newcomen steam engine from England to an old Powder Tower at the edge of Rotterdam. On 9 March 1776, the machine was first put into operation. The steam engine components worked well, but the self-designed wooden Hoogendijk pumps were not compatible and quickly collapsed. This made it such an impression that in 1787 a new steam engine was built in the Polder Blijdorp. The expected theoretical capacity of 1750 cubic feet per minute displacement was only 5% higher than the observed effective capacity.Nevertheless general acceptance in the Netherlands of the steam engine was slow due to allegiance to the existing mill methods.

  • Steven Hoogendijk (Rotterdam, 1 april 1698 – aldaar, 3 juli 1788) was een Rotterdamse horloge- en instrumentmaker en natuurkundige. In 1769 richtte Steven Hoogendijk tezamen met enkele anderen het Bataafs Genootschap voor Proefondervindelijke wijsbegeerte op, waarvan het voornaamste doel de introductie van de stoommachine in Nederland was. Met steun van dit Genootschap en op eigen kosten werd in Engeland een Newcomenmachine gekocht en in een oude kruittoren aan de rand van Rotterdam opgesteld. Op 9 maart 1776 werd de machine voor het eerst in werking gesteld. De machine zelf bleek uitstekend te voldoen, maar de door Hoogendijk zelf ontworpen houten pompen bleken niet tegen de druk bestand en begaven het al snel. Sindsdien draaide de machine alleen maar af en toe voor belangstellenden. Dit maakte toch zo'n indruk dat in 1787 een nieuwe stoommachine in de polder Blijdorp (300 ha) werd gebouwd.Deze voldeed wel aan de verwachtingen met de theoretische capaciteit van 1750 kubieke voet waterverplaatsing per minuut. De effectieve capaciteit bleek slechts 5% lager te liggen. Toch zou het nog lange tijd duren eer de stoommachine algemeen ingang vond in Nederland, omdat men in het behoudende Nederland liever de molen trouw bleef. Naar Steven Hoogendijk is een straat genoemd in de Rotterdamse wijk Feijenoord. (nl)
