Excerpt from The Principles of Mechanical Refrigeration: A Study Course for Operating Engineers
The Principles of Mechanical Refrigeration is based on a series of twenty articles published in Power during 1920. These articles were written as a "study course," the attempt being made to present the subject in as clear a manner as possible, each article being complete in itself, while the series covered the entire field of refrigeration in an elementary manner. The success of the articles seemed to warrant their collection under one cover in book form.
In compiling this book the "study course" has been rearranged, and amplified. The attempt has been made to continue the same manner of presentation; namely, to write in a simple manner, to use very little mathematics and to strive to explain the action of refrigeration by analogies to steam machinery and steam cycles. It is a book on refrigeration for practical steam and refrigerating engineers, written somewhat in the form of lectures, and with a frank expression of personal opinion in regard to designs and types of machinery and equipment. It is hoped that others besides practical engineers will find a book of this sort of interest, both in reviewing the subject, and in the use of the diagrams and tables which have been made as nearly up-to-date as possible.
It is always a pleasant privilege for an author to acknowledge assistance in the preparation of a book while still reserving all the responsibilities for short comings.
