Book The Working Engineer s Practical Guide to the Management of the Steam Engine

Download or read book The Working Engineer s Practical Guide to the Management of the Steam Engine written by Joseph Hopkinson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Working Engineer's Practical Guide to the Management of the Steam Engine With confidence the Author submits the present work, "The Working Engineer's Practical Guide," to the judgment of those whose duty it is to superintend the working of the Steam Engine and Boiler, in their many and varied forms and applications. The many encomiums the Author has received from parties who have benefited from following the instructions and advice contained in his larger work, "The Working of the Steam Engine Explained by the Use of the Indicator," - (four large Editions of which have been published, and rapidly disposed of,) - and the very general desire he has heard expressed that portions of the matter composing that work should be published in a form and at a price more accessible to the working Engineer, has induced him to prepare the work now presented, in the confident belief that it will be found to be of practical advantage to those for whose information and use it has been designed. The aim of the Author, in all he has published, has been, by means of homely language, accompanied with familiar and practical illustration, to instruct those who are entrusted with the care and management of Steam Engines, so that they may ascertain with certainty whether they are deriving the greatest amount of practical advantage from the several quantities of impulsive power they may generate and apply. Interspersed with these instructions he has given hints and examples, intended to show how practical improvements in the working of most Steam Engines may be effected at little cost, to the great saving of fuel, and the steady application of the motive power - all these being points of manifest importance to the proprietors of Steam Engines, and of advantage to the practical Engineer. The conclusions recorded in this work have resulted from observation and study, not in the closet, but in company with the Steam Engine, in its various stages and alterations: and although the mere theorist, or the scientific literary writer, may object to the plain and simple manner in which the different topics descanted on are treated, the Author is assured, from the difficulties which in the early period of his own experience he himself had to contend with and overcome, that his plan of procedure is the best that he could possibly have adopted for the accomplishment of his main object in undertaking the work - the instruction of the practical working Engineer.

This book was released on 2017-11-16 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Working Engineer's Practical Guide to the Management of the Steam Engine The section of the work devoted to the question of the Expansion of Steam, with the examples adduced, shows how this is to be effected in the most available manner with the best practical results. The Author knows of nothing else hitherto published which imparts the information on this important subject he has endeavoured to convey. Yet this is one of the real questions of the the day - the main direction in which further improvements of the Steam Engine are to be effected. Economy in the working of the Steam Engine is known to be in the application of high pressures. The higher - within the limits of safety - we can get, the more economical. To obtain the whole benefit of high steam, we must apply the principles of Expansion, beginning with the highest pressure of steam we have, and parting with it at the lowest possible pressure. How this principle is to be applied with practical advantage, the Author has here endeavoured to indicate. The Tables appended to the work will also, it is believed, be found to be of service to the practical Engineer, aiding him in his calculations for various matters connected with the Steam Engine and its working. In those Tables, and indeed, throughout the work, decimals have been, to a great extent, dispensed with, and also fractional parts, with the exception of those expressed by the common signs i, 5, - the calculations when so reduced and expressed, being near enough for all practical purposes, and more intelligible to a large portion of the class for whom the work is designed. In fact, throughout the treatise, the aim of the Author has been to Oxpress himself in simple phraseology; and though his production may not possess the charm of literary embellishment, he trusts that it may be found to possess at least the merit of perspicuity in the treatment of a dry subject, and to be of practical utility. In short, he trusts that it will be found to be what he has endeavoured to make it, a practical guide TO the working engineer.
