This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electric Traction and Transmission Engineering The ultimate purpose of nearly all the professional efforts of an engineer is the attainment of efficiency in the utilization of labor, capital, and energy. To attain the highest efficiency in the construction and the subsequent operation of a complete installation requires a knowledge of the facts and a familiarity with the laws pertaining to these three factors. Decisions as to the selection of the type and the dimensions of an element, often attributed to the exercise of good judgment, are generally the specific results of the correct application of laws to all pertinent facts. The number of facts to be considered in determining the final elements of a complete electric traction system is enormous. As a consequence students and young engineers become bewildered and 'are unable to discriminate as to the pertinency or necessity of specific details. To meet this condition the present text has been prepared, it' being believed that no other single published book meets it.

The book attempts to present a perspective view of the design of a complete railway installation, from the cars to the power-station, to indicate the nature and sequence of the various entailed problems, and to suggest or illustrate methods for their solution. In preparing the text the determination of what to omit has involved nearly as much effort as of what to include.

Download or read book Electric Traction on the Pennsylvania Railroad 1895 1968 written by Michael Bezilla and published by Penn State University Press. This book was released on 1980 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive case study of railroad electrification in the United States, this pioneering book highlights a subject of current government and industry studies and a target of billions of dollars of Amtrak rehabilitation funds. Both energy conservation and environmental quality remain at stake together with transportation efficiency. Electric traction on the Pennsylvania Railroad was a technological success handicapped by an economic factor: the onetime relatively low cost of petroleum, which gave diesel locomotives and highway vehicles a temporary advantage. Today the growing cost advantage of electricity--generated with coal; atomic energy; water, wind, and solar power--prefigures a revival of electric railroad traction. Drawing upon previously untapped records of the PRR and its suppliers, notably General Electric, the author traces stages in cooperative risk management. First came challenges of limited scope which steam locomotives were unable to meet: the New York City tunnel extension of 1910 and the Philadelphia suburban modernization begun in 1913. Next came a decade of mainline electrification, 1928-38: first New York to Washington and then passenger and freight extensions to Harrisburg. These projects were preceded by large-scale research and experimentation, followed by constant improvement in equipment and operations. Electric traction is depicted as a program involving not only the railroad but also its consultants, equipment and energy suppliers, and (to a lesser degree) governmental bodies. Locomotive and power transmission design is described in detail--with copious illustrations--as are the creative achievements of managers, engineers, and workers. And the presentation will be clear to readers without specialized technical or business backgrounds.
