Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
The data and descriptive matter given herein, are largely based upon private notes and upon information and material scattered through text-books, technical bulletins, and in original papers in technical and scientific journals. Much of this data is either inaccessible or in such a form ias not to be readily applied or interpreted and hence is not likely to be utilized by those who have the most active interest in coal. In the preparation and arrangement of the material, three distinct classes of readers have been to a certain extent kept in mind: (1) The mechanical and power plant engineer; (2) The chemical engineer and chemist; (3) The non-technically trained business man and operator who has to do with the buying and selling of the coal. In including data which might be of interest and value to these different groups of readers a portion of the material is necessarily elementary for some and a portion is correspondingly technical for others. Good advice to each reader is to select that which may be of interest and use, and to pass over any discussion or data which may appear too elementary or too technical for his needs. To the technical man who is familiar with much of the data and many of the formulas given, it may appear that many of the simpler illustrations and details might perhaps just as well have been omitted. However, it is the writers experience that specific formulas and specific data are not, as a rule, likely to be given too much in detail to suit the occasional user, who may have neither the time nor the inclination to elaborate the formula or to check up the data. He wants each in a form easily understood and readily applicable to his needs.
