Synopsis

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

These specifications are intended to cover in a general way the construction contracts of the New Waterside, now known as the Waterside No. 2power house, although the general clauses have been omitted in order to save space. It was thought advisable in the design of the station to provide for either vertical reciprocating engines or for either or both of two types of steam turbine units of the maximum sizes then developed, thus necessitating a compromise between the demands of the various designs; and the operating room was laid out to contain twelve 6,000 k. w. vertical engines, or sixteen 5,000 k. w. vertical turbine units, or twelve 5,500 k. w. horizontal turbine units. Further developments in the turbine field and certain operating conditions have determined the final layout. In the design and construction of the station The New York Edison Company has been represented by J. W. Lieb, Jr., Associate General Manager, J. P. Sparrow, Chief Engineer, P. Torchio, Chief Electrical Engineer, G. A. Orrok, Mechanical Engineer, E. M. Van Norden, Civil Engineer, W. W. Erwin, Superintendent of Construction, H. Stephenson, Superintendent of Distribution and C. B. Grady, Resident Engineer. THOMAS E. MURRAY, General Manager. New York, July,
