Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engine, Vol. 1: Thermodynamics of the Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engine, Together With Historical Sketch This work was first published in 1886 under the title of 'The Gas Engine.' Considerable additions were made to it in 1896 and the title was altered to 'The Gas and Oil Engine.' Both the science and practice of Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engines have developed so largely since 1896 that it has become necessary to rewrite practically the whole book. To treat science and practice adequately necessitated considerable additional space; and, accordingly, the book has been divided into two volumes, each, however, complete in itself. The first volume has been entitled 'Thermodynamics of the Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engine,' and the second volume will be entitled 'The Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engine in Practice.' The present volume consists of an enlarged historical sketch, broadly dealing with the important developments down to 1908, and the science of the subject is treated in nine chapters. In this treatment the original book is followed closely, so far as arrangement is concerned. Chapters I. and II. deal with the gas engine method and classification of gas engines. Chapter III. on 'Thermodynamics' has been greatly enlarged to deal more fully with cycles of operation of practical importance to-day. Chapter IV., on 'The Causes of Loss in Gas Engines,' has also been enlarged. Chapter V., on 'Combustion and Explosion,' has been added to. Chapter VI. has been greatly enlarged to include the consideration of Cooling as well as Explosion in a Closed Vessel and the more recent experiments of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Grover, Clerk, the Royal College of Science, Petavel, and Hopkinson have been fully dealt with. Information upon the Laws of Explosion and Cooling has greatly increased even within the last six years. The work of the various investigators has been described in a manner which it is hoped will be useful to the engineer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engine, Vol. 1: Thermodynamics of the Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engine, Together With Historical Sketch Explosion and Cooling of Gaseous mixtures in large and small vessels and at initial pressures of atmosphere and above. Chapter VIII. Deals for the first time in any work on the subject with Explosion and Cooling in a Cylinder behind a Moving Piston. The recent work by the author enables approximate values to be arrived at for cooling within the internal-combustion Engine Cylinder, apart from tem perature fall due to work done. The last chapter, Chapter IX., discusses the Thermal and Mechanical Efficiency of all the different types of gas engine in use. On this part of the subject more accurate knowledge exists than at any previous time. Important work has been done by English, American, and Continental investigators, and the Research Committees of the Institutions of Civil and Mechanical Engineers have made experiments of great value. All this work has been fully discussed in this chapter. In the present volume the author has attempted to systematise the knowledge existing as to the properties of the working fluid of the Intemal - Combustion Engine, whether using gas, petrol, or heavy oil, so as to enable the engineer and inventor to consider not only mechanical modifications of engine construction, but more profound alterations possible by varying the actions going on in the working fluid. Such variations are, in the author's opinion, necessary to enable light and powerful internal-combustion Engines to be developed for marine work. For this purpose it is necessary that the engineer should be thoroughly familiar with the properties of the working fluid with which he is dealing.
