Excerpt: ... be the most attractive to, and the most considered by, mechanics and engineers. The only test of beauty and elegance of design in an engine is fitness and perfect proportion to the stresses placed upon the various parts. The severest simplicity of design should be adhered to. Every pound of metal, where it does not subserve some useful purpose, every attempt at mere ornament, is a defect, and should be avoided. The well-educated engineer should combine the qualities of the practical man and the physicist; and the more he blends these together, making each mould and soften what the other would seem to dictate if allowed to act alone, the more will his works be successful and attain the exact object for which they are designed. The steam-boiler and its construction will be found to be very thoroughly treated in Professor Trowbridge's Heat and Heat Engines, in Wilson's Steam-boilers, and in The SteamEngine, by Professor Rankine. (71.) Note on the Taper of Connecting-Rods.--The following remark, page 62, needs qualification: "It is customary to make round connecting-rods with a taper of about one-eighth of an inch per foot, from the centre to the necks, which should be of the calculated diameter. Experiment does not show an increased strength from a tapering form." Passed Assistant Engineer C. H. Manning, in a pleasant correspondence with the writer, differed from him, deeming it a better method to taper connecting-rods from the crankpin end to the cross-head end, as "experience had shown that connecting-rods usually failed at the crank-pin." Led by this discussion to make a more thorough investigation into the stress upon connecting-rods due to their own inertia than he had before deemed necessary, the writer submits the...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Relative Proportions of the Steam-Engine: A Course of Lectures on the Steam-Engine, Delivered to the Students of Dynamical Engineering in the University of Pennsylvania It is a source of regret to the author of these Lectures that none of the distinguished writers upon Mechanics or the Steam-engine have undertaken to give, in a simple and practical form, rules and formulas for the determination of the relative proportions of the component parts of the steam-engine. The authors of the few. works as yet published in the English language either entirely ignore the proportions of the steam-engine or content themselves with scanty and general rules - Rankine excepted, who in the attempt to be brief is sometimes obscure, leaving many gaps in the immense field which he has attempted to cover. This deficiency in the literature of the steam-engine is remarkable, because the problem which the mechanical engineer is most frequently called upon to solve is the determination of the dimensions of its various parts. From time to time hand-books of the steam-engine have been published giving practical (?) rules, the result of observation of successful construction; and with these rules the practising engineer, who has little time for original investigation, has had to content himself.
