Book excerpt: Excerpt from Steam-Engine Principles and Practice Throughout the text, principles which are presented are explained with descriptive expositions or with worked-out arithmetical. Examples. Also, at the end of each of the 16 divisions there are questions to be answered and, where justified, problems to be solved by the reader. These ques tions and problems are based on the text matter in the division just preceding. If the reader can answer the questions and solve the problems, he then must be conversant with the subject matter of the division. Detail solutions to all of the problems are printed in an appendix in the back of the book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mechanism of Steam Engines The book has been planned primarily to meet the needs of students who take up this subject as a part of, or immediately following, their course in the elements of mechanism, before they study the theory and practice of heat engineering or machine design. The purpose of the authors has been to present the subject in such a way as to make clear to the beginner the mechanical principles on which the steam engine operates, with special reference to the valve gear and governing devices, and the various diagrams used for studying the same. Examples are given of the different types of mechanisms, these examples being chosen merely to illustrate principles and methods, without particular reference to their relative importance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Steam and the Steam Engine: Land, Marine, and Locomotive The chief aim of the author of this book has been to supply a want that he, in common with a large body of teachers, has experienced for many years. There is on Steam no cheap work that a teacher can put into the hands of his pupils, to give them at once a full and comprehensive idea of the whole subject. The author has striven to supply this defect, and to produce a work correct in its facts, safe in its deductions, and containing, where possible, new and original matter, or the old matter presented under new aspects. How far he has succeeded is for others to judge. An attempt has been made, not only to give the reader an insight into the details and specialities of the different kinds of engines employed to do man's work, but to make him understand the various principles upon which each part of the Steam Engine 'does that work, the relation these parts bear to each other, and the life or physiology, so to speak, of the whole.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Steam Engine: Historical, Practical, and Descriptive To instruct students, it is necessary to state such elementary propositions in mechanics, as have a direct application to the subject of steam-engines; for this purpose a series of definitions are given in an introduction to the present volume. These definitions have been formed from a full examination of the works of the best writers on the theory of mechanics, viz., Belidor, Emerson, Smeaton, Hutton, Banks, Gregory, Robison, Young, and others. The author has endeavoured to preserve their modes of reasoning, and the mathematical accuracy of their conclusions, without employing the language of geometrical or algebraical analysis; but all quantities are represented in numbers, and their proportions established by the ordinary processes of arithmetic this plan has been adopted in order to render the principles very apparent to those who are not accustomed to any other mode of calculus. This part of the work is intended to give practical men an exact knowledge of the true principles upon which their operations ought to be conducted; and other parts to show the means of applying those principles to their daily practice, in the construction and use of steam-engines.

The working pressure of steam in the boiler is 80 lbs. Per square inch, and the factor of safety in the design of the engines is io. The maximum speed attained by the pistons is about 700 feet per minute, when the engine makes 50 revolutions per minute. The engines are designed for raising 80 cwts. Of net coal from a depth of 700 yards; and the gross load lifted, including 5% tons of rope, is about 12 tons. Steam of 80 lbs. Pressure per square inch is supplied from four Lancashire boilers, 7 feet in diameter, 30 feet long. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Steam Engine and the Indicator Classic Reprint written by William Barnet Le Van and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 516 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Steam Engine and the Indicator The early chapters refer especially to the history of the steam engine, and to the theory of the action of steam in the cylinder of a steam engine, and the succeeding ones to the application of the theory in practice. Having felt personally the want of more practical informa tion on the subject than is contained in existing works, it has been the aim of the writer to supply such want, and to enable those who have not the opportunity of making experiments to gain a more intimate knowledge of the indicator. And it is hoped that the directions here given for the practical applica tion of this instrument will at the same time give the volume a considerable degree of interest to those engineers who are conversant with its ordinary working, but lack a knowledge of the principles involved.
