Essential reference for engineers and students: the properties of saturated steam and other vapors, clearly organized for quick lookup. This sixth edition brings revised and enlarged tables that support technical work in thermodynamics, marine engineering, and related fields. The book presents practical data you can use in classrooms, labs, or on the job, with notes on how the numbers were derived and checked for accuracy.
Within, you’ll find carefully calculated tables of saturated steam properties, plus data for additional vapors. It’s designed to accompany notes on thermo-dynamics and to serve as a reliable companion for analysis, design, and performance evaluation in steam systems and engines.
Ideal for readers who need a dependable, field-tested table set to inform design choices, performance calculations, and technical study in steam engineering.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book calculates the various properties of saturated vapors, including water, alcohol, ether, chloroform, carbon bisulfide, carbon tetrachloride, and ammonia. The author's tables were calculated with the best data available at the time of writing, with some tables being calculated by the author using equations they devised. The author acknowledges the gradual refinement of measurement, noting that even the best equipment and methods will vary slightly. In addition, the author highlights a potential discrepancy between conventional methods and the absolute scale of thermodynamics and points out that the boiling point of water changes with altitude; such factors affect the accuracy to which properties of a vapor can be known. This book provides convenient access to calculations of saturated vapor properties, based on the best data available in the late 19th century.
