Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a practical treatise on theories, design, construction, and use of steam engines. It is designed to be easily accessible even to those with no previous knowledge of steam engine technology, and most of the concepts are explained using terms and formulas that the everyday person can understand. The book begins with a discussion of basic units of power, such as foot-pounds and horsepower, and then provides an overview of historical engine models, like the Newcomen Engine, and key figures in their development, such as James Watt. It also introduces the concept of expansive working and its benefits, and covers the influence of factors like temperature on engine efficiency. This volume is a valuable historical resource for its in-depth look at the development of steam engine technology and its impact on society.
