STEAM-ENGINE PRINCIPLES & PRACTICE

edited by Terrell Croft

DESCRIPTION ISBN: 1559183756 Format: small hardcover with gilt title Published: Lindsay Publications 2008, 6th impression Size (mm): 145 w x 220 h x 35 d Pages: 513 SKU: A5M/2505/0266/T800

ABOUT Originally published in 1922, this book is a reproduction of an important historical work.

The economics of the use of condensers with steam engines and of employing multi-expansion engines are next considered and are followed by a division on steam-engine efficiencies and how to increase them.

The material in the next division, on steam engines of modern types, concerns the distinctive features, economics and costs of engines of the present day. The testing of steam engines is then treated. Following this are divisions on the management, Operation and repair of reciprocating engines and on the use of superheated steam in engines which, it is hoped, will be of great value to the engineer.

Illustrated throughout with diagrams and graphs.
