Download or read book Engineering Papers Classic Reprint written by C. G. Smith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-02-07 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Engineering Papers In connection with all subjects there are many points which it is impossible to touch upon when reading a paper. Statements involving numerical results, which may be of great value, are very uninteresting and generally entirely fail to command the attention of an audience; some of these closely bearing on the subject-matter have been introduced at the end of each paper, along with such other explanations as have seemed necessary, and it is trusted they will render the Whole of interest to engineering students. The opinions elicited in the discussions are appended, with the author's replies fully worked out by subsequent thought and experience. Should this volume meet with the same reception from the public as the papers have already received from the scientific press, and from those to whom they have been addressed, the author will feel that his slight endeavours to promote engineering science have been amply rewarded.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Railroad Engineering, Vol. 2: Instruction Paper These deposits are injurious in two ways. In the first place the transfer of heat from the fire to the water is less free and there is thus a waste of energy, and in the next place the metal becomes overheated and perhaps burned. The safety of the metal of a boiler depends on the free transfer of the intense heat of the fire to the comparatively low heat of the water or steam. The prevention of these deposits may be accomplished in one (or both) of two ways; the frequent cleaning of the boilers through the manholes and handholes provided for the purpose, and by the more or less perfect purification of the water before it enters the boiler.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electrical Engineering Papers, 1919: A Collection of the Author's More Important Engineering Papers Presented Before Various Technical Societies and Published in Engineering Journals and Alsewhere From Time to Time It is necessary to understand the characteristics of the poly phase motor in order to consider properly its application to the different classes of work to be met with in practice. These characteristics can be presented in the most intelligible manner by means of curves, which represent the relations between the speed, torque or turning effort, horse power expended and developed, amperes, etc. The speed-torque curve, which represents the speed in terms of the torque, is the most important one, as upon this depends the adaptability of the motor to the various kinds of work. The starting conditions also depend upon the speed-torque characteristics. The other curves that are of importance in prac tice are the current, efficiency and power factor. As these are dependent, to some extent, upon the speed-torque curve, this will be considered first. Before treating of its characteristics a short description of the motor itself will be given.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Engineering as a Career: A Series of Papers by Eminent Engineers "What can my boy do as an engineer? - what should he learn, or where should he go to school?" These and similar questions are asked every day by anxious mothers and fathers. The boy himself, as he approaches manhood, begins at first vaguely, then seriously, to consider these matters, and inquires how he may get into some job which will ultimately open opportunities for advancement. When we consider that each year there are ten thousand young men who start on an engineering course, and many others who would gladly do so if they knew how to proceed intelligently, the importance of a full and correct answer to these questions is apparent. If we assume that the cash outlay of the parents is at least $500 per year for these ten thousand young men, or $5,000,000 per annum, and that in addition there is an expenditure of time and energy which otherwise might be used in earning a living and represents the value of say another $5,000,000, the financial importance of this problem becomes apparent.

Download or read book Papers From the Department of Engineering Classic Reprint written by Mcgill University and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Papers From the Department of Engineering The value Of the thermal diffusivity has been computed for suitable intervals of time covering the entire period now reported on. The results are tabulated below, and are also represented graphically on the aecom panying plate. These results Show that the value of lc/e is, for the lower strata, in general less than the average, but that for a short time in the spring or early summer, the contrary is true. The latter condition pro bably corresponds to a stage in which the moisture of the melting snow has penetrated to the lower depths, and the upper layers are relatively dryer. When the ground is protected by snow and there is no percolation, the value of k/c is seen as in former years to be a minimum and very constant, the average value corresponding to 0015, which, as stated in former communications, may be taken as the value of diffusivity due to pure thermal conduction for the sandy soil in question in a dry condition. All values above this being due more or less to influence from percolation. The normal value for the full depth, under average conditions of soil, during the summer months, may be put at '0075.
