The Detection and Measurement of Inflammable Gas and Vapour in the Air (Classic Reprint): With a Chapter on the Detection and Measurement of Petroleum Vapour - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Unlock the science of safe air in mining and industry. This authoritative manual shows how inflammable gases are detected and measured in real-world environments.
Originally published in the late 19th century, this work compiles practical methods for testing and monitoring combustible gases in air, with a detailed look at petroleum vapour. It explains how mixtures ignite, the explosive limits of common gases, and the instruments used to observe flame behavior. The book also includes a dedicated chapter on the hydrogen flame test and a special section describing apparatus for measuring vapour in the air.
- Clear explanations of explosive limits for methane, coal-gas, water-gas, hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and more.
- Hands-on guidance on flame-test techniques, flame-cap measurements, and test-chamber setup.
- Insights into historical methods and practical apparatus used in gas-detection work.
- Appendices covering hydrogen safety lamps and methods for detecting related gases like carbonic oxide and carbonic acid gas.
Ideal for readers interested in industrial safety, gas testing, and the historical development of gas-detection technology.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book seeks to understand and quantify the presence of flammable gases and vapors in the air, particularly in coal mines. The author summarizes methods of gas testing used in coal mines, establishing their strengths and weaknesses. Many of these methods have been superseded by the introduction of hydrogen-flame testing, which is portable, non-luminous, and provides more accurate measures of gas content. The book is of great significance to coal mining, providing a comprehensive insight into the detection, measurement, and understanding of flammable gases and vapors in the air, particularly methane or marsh gas, an ever-present concern in coal mining. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330890820_0
