Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oil Fuel Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ohio fields was considered too valuable to be used for any but refinery purposes, and, moreover, it was not adapted for fuel in its crude stages, on account of its light, volatile nature. With the opening up of the California, Oklahoma, and Gulf Coast oil fields, of Texas, Louisiana and Mexico-yielding a heavier product in enormous quantities, and one admirably adapted for boiler use - these conditions were changed, the consequence being a demand for oil, with all its advantages over any other commercial fuel except natural gas. The Texas Company was early in this oil fuel field, organizing in the year 1902. Since that time, by fair dealing and reliability, in connection with con stant attention to the demands of its customers, its present large oil fuel trade has been developed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oil Fuel and the Empire In this country foreign Oil fuel is too dear to ow freely in industrial channels blocked by practically inexhaustible supplies Of home-produced coal. It is a commercial truism that it does not pay to send coal to Newcastle; to any one who has a knowledge of the geography of the world's Oil fields, and knows anything about Oil transport rates of 1907-8, it must be obvious that, this being a coal producing and not an Oil-producing country, it is hopeless to expect an early crystallisation of a commercial system in liquid fuel. It is no part of my duty to explain the commercial features Of the case in favour Of coal against liquid fuel. Inasmuch, however, as it is my intention to Show that Oil has considerable and undoubted economic advantages over coal in some Of the principal Oil-producing countries, and also in what I may call neutral territories, where the dominion of coal for marine purposes is no longer absolutely unchallenged, I think it wise to deal with this purely British coal-versus-oil phase of the subject before I discuss the progress and prosperity of liquid fuel in other parts of the world.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Liquid Fuel for Mechanical and Industrial Purposes Indeed, since the year 1860, about which time the scientific application of liquid fuel to industrial purposes may be said to have commenced, it has made most rapid strides, and in 1870 it was used during the siege of Paris, when coal had given out and M. Fernand Hue, in his work entitled Aux Pays de Petrole, ' tells us that M. Sainte-claire Deville's furnace for burning petroleum in a liquid state was the means of enabling Paris to keep several of its large factories going during that' terrible year, as well as to grind its flour by steam.

This book was released on 2018-03-03 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Production of Gasoline by Cracking Heavier Oils The ordinary processes of refining crude petroleum yield a series of products differing widely in properties and commercial desirability. Those required for the smaller types of internal combustion engines, such as are now generally used in airplanes, motor boats, farm trac tors, motor trucks, and automobiles, are in greatest demand. Kero sene and fuel oil, which are used to produce light, heat, or power in competition with other more plentiful resources, such as coal, are less desirable with regard both to commercial profit and the conser vation of natural resources. Of the two types of products used in internal combustion engines lubricants and gasoline - the former does not seem as yet to Offer a problem in the conservation of resources. Gasoline is, however, being produced in such quantities that its continued use on the pres ent scale threatens to bring about the practical exhaustion of the country's underground supply of crude petroleum in the course of a few generations at most. The Bureau of Mines knows of no more important problem facing the country to - day than the conservation of this valuable natural resource, and has undertaken through the present investigation and other studies to promote greater efficiency in the utilization of crude petroleum.

Download or read book Fuels and Their Combustion Classic Reprint written by Robert T. Haslam and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 824 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fuels and Their Combustion Efficiency in combustion and fuel utilization is daily assum ing added importance as the most accessible supplies Of our best fuels approach depletion, and as fuel costs advance. Recent years have seen such widespread adoption Of new methods Of fuel utilization that the science Of combustion has not kept abreast Of practice. This book - the outgrowth Of a lecture course at the Massachusetts Institute Of Technology - covers the field broadly and in so far as possible points out the under lying principles on which further progress must be based. It is intended to meet the needs Of men using fuels in industry, and Of students in technical schools and colleges. It is believed that this volume will serve in two ways: first, by giving a com prehensive treatment of the subject, and second, by means Of numerous references guiding him into further and more intensive study. In order to give the reader the proper viewpoint, the first subjects treated are the origin, composition and production Of the natural fuels - coal, petroleum and natural gas. In the chapters devoted to combustion equipment, representative types are described as illustrative Of modern design. Since the interpretation Of combustion data depends on calculations based on the common combustion reactions, this phase Of the subject is presented in considerable detail. Secondary or manufactured fuels - producer, water, Oil and coal gas - are given special prom inence in view Of their rapidly growing importance. Since the flow Of air and flue gases and heat transfer are inseparably connected with the capacity and efficiency Of combustion equip ment, the book concludes with three chapters dealing with these subjects. The decision as to the amount Of space to be allocated to each subject is a matter of individual judgment, and the authors, in making this decision, have been fortunate in securing the advice of many engaged in the industry.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gas, Gasoline and Oil-Engines, Including Producer-Gas Plants: A New, Complete and Practical Work on Gas, Gasoline, Kerosene, and Crude Petroleum Oil-Engines A book representing and illustrating the details Of design, manufacture, and management Of a new and progressive prime moving power, falls behind its time. By age and therefore needs re arrangement and additions to bring its text and illustrations up to date in all the departments Of such progressive industry. There is probably no more important mechanical industry, involving the production Of motive power for all purposes within the age of steam, than that Of the explosive motor and its far - reach ing effect in the promotion Of industry by a cheap helping hand. SO quickly has this new power expanded to almost universal usefulness as a labor-saving element in the lesser industries, that the literature of the past is found lacking in its up-to - date needs. Progress and improvement are the drift Of genius in this advanced age. The progress made in adapting the use Of crude petroleum as fuel for explosive power, together with the rapid development Of the producer-gas industry, have given a new economy in the production Of power, while the use Of the hitherto neglected gaseous elements Of the blast - furnace and coke manufacture have added new sources Of power production at a nominal cost. With these matters in View the author has revised, rewritten, and added to the contents Of the last edition Of this work such material and ideals that have come to his knowledge as will better represent the latest standards Of construction and Operation Of the explosive motor; to which is included an illustrated chapter on the production Of the new fuel gases and their uses.
