A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The following Chapters were commenced with the intention of adding them to the 5th Edition of my Treatise on Steam Boilers, in consequence of having had numerous enquiries respecting the proper size of chimney for boiler-work. The information is, however, likely to be more use Min its present form, hence the appearance of this little book. I had some diffidence in calling in question the correctness of the theory of draught adopted by Rankine, by Morin, and by Peclet in the 2nd Edition of his Traits de la Chaleur, but after going to press I find that Peclet in the 3rd Edition of his work has altered his theory and adopted the same as I have arrived at ROBERT WILSON.
