Download or read book Boilers Classic Reprint written by Hubert E. Collins and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Boilers This volume endeavors to furnish the reader with much new and valuable material on an old subject, together with much standard information which every engineer likes to have at his hand. A glance at the chapter headings will show the scope of the book. It will be seen that the subject is pretty fully covered from the working conditions inside of a boiler to simple talks on the various phases of boiler practice. It also covers the design of boiler furnaces for wood burning, and much other useful material. One very important feature is the portion on the safety valve based on Mr. Fred R. Low's supplement to Power on that subject. The author is indebted to Mr. Low for permission to incorporate this material in the book, and to various other contributors, whose articles have been used as a whole or in part in the work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Steam Boilers and Combustion Unfortunately most of the books published are highly technical works dealing with what has been done and not with the possibilities of future development. This Spells a great danger to initiative - which is discounted to a great extent - by placing too much reliance on the past rather than encouraging a determined attack on future possibilities. A learned professor has gone farther than most in this direction when he asserted that engineers and boiler experts had been fostering wrong ideas in Spite of the fact that extended practice qualified present laws. His declaration that the theories accepted, and their laws, were utterly wrong, is a deduction from what his own experiments revealed.

Download or read book Steam Boilers written by E. M. Shealy and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Steam Boilers: Prepared in the Extension Division of the University of Wisconsin This book has been written out of the experience of correspondence teaching in this subject in the Extension Division of The University of Wisconsin. It is the result of well-matured plans to produce a suitable text for instruction by mail as developed through actual experience. The work, therefore, was written primarily for correspondence students, and is intended for the use of firemen and others who may be in responsible charge of boiler rooms. In order to best fulfill the main purpose of this instruction, the operation of boilers, rather than their design, is treated in considerable detail. Much descriptive matter relating to boilers and boiler-room equipment is included because it is realized that many firemen are familiar with only the particular equipment which they happen to be using, and wish to know something of other types of equipment. On account of the increasing importance of efficient combustion of fuels and of the attention now being given to smoke prevention, these subjects are treated in detail. The chapters on "Chemistry of Combustion" and "Fuels" form a basis for the study of the proper burning of fuels. Following these are chapters on "Firing" and "Smokeless Combustion of Coal." These chapters treat of the best methods of using fuel, and also of different forms of furnaces and apparatus for securing smokeless combustion, and of different forms of mechanical stokers. The chapter on "Smokeless Combustion of Coal" was compiled by Mr. E. B. Norris, Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering in the Extension Division of The University of Wisconsin. The author desires to acknowledge the assistance of Mr. Norris and Mr. H. J. Thorkelson, Associate Professor of Steam and Gas Engineering in the College of Engineering of The University of Wisconsin, for their careful reading of the manuscript and for many valuable suggestions which have been utilized.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pot-Boilers I can imagine myself printing under that classic excuse, which has the merit of being in the grand literary tradition and as disingenuous as another for in these days an author is not more hungry than every one else, and my friends would have been the first to pardon my silence. You may take it for certain, by the way, that when a man says he is publishing at the instance of two or three friends he means that he is offering the public what he knows that the public could have done perfectly well Without. He means that he is printing neither to persuade nor to inform nor yet to express the truth that is in him, but simply to gratify an itch for such notoriety as the careless attention of a few thousand readers may be supposed to give. If I now contrive to escape the consequences of my own axiom it is thanks to you, My Publisher - or Publisher's representative must I say? (you are so very modest, my dear Whitworth, and so exact.)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Engines and Boilers This text book on Engines and Boilers is intended for use in engineering schools which offer an elementary course in Heat Engines. NO attempt has been made to cover the more advanced work in Thermodynamics, or to give an exhaustive treatment of the subject of Heat Power. This work is the result of the author's experience during the several years that he taught classes in Engines and Boilers and in allied subjects at Purdue University. Much of the material was given to the students first in lectures, and later in the form of mimeographed notes. It is now presented in book form with the hope that it may be of value in other engineering schools. At the end of the book a list of representative problems is given. It has been the author's experience that the student obtains a better understanding of the subject if he is required to work problems related to/the matter in the text.
