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.

N o attempt has been made to describe the use of oil in locomotive or marine practice, or in heating, tempering and hardening furnaces, because these applications are so extensive as to deserve individual treatment. In stead, this volume is confined to the burning of oil in the furnaces of stationary steam boilers, and the endeavor has been to cover the ground fully and thoroughly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engine, Vol. 2 The first volume of the new edition of this work was published in 1909, so that three years have been spent in the preparation of the present volume, which deals with practical problems of design, con struction and operation of Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engines. The author has been fortunate in securing the co-operation of Mr. G. A. Burls, in collecting information and writing the book. Chapters I, II, V and XII are by the author Chapters VII, VIII, IX and XI are by Mr. Burls while Chapters III, IV, VI and X are in great part the work of Mr. Burls. The whole work, however, has been the subject of joint discussion, and the book as it now stands correctly represents the opinions of both writers. The aim throughout all the chapters has been the comparison of early and late constructions and the discussion of various problems which have appeared in the course of the development of the various types of engine since the introduction of the Otto cycle in 1876. Chapters I and II deal broadly with the development of four and two-stroke engines, and describe various difficulties which have been encountered and partially overcome; results of operation are given and various tests are dealt with both in the works and in practical Operation in factories. Chapter III deals with igniting arrangements, and describes and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the different methods used, tracing the development which has demonstrated the supremacy of electrical ignition in its best forms. Chapter IV describes governors and governing methods as practised on the Continent and in England and America.

To gain every possible heat unit it is necessary to fur: nish sufficient oxygen or air to reduce the fuel to its lowest state.
