Excerpt from Steam Power Plant Engineering The field embraced by the title is a large one and it has been necessary to limit the treatment to essential elements. Much of the matter contained in the author's original notes, including that relat ing to, steam engine design, valve gears, steam boiler design, and the like, has therefore been omitted. The numerous references appear ing throughout the text and the appended bibliographies, which have been carefully compiled, are depended upon to extend the scope of the work. The standard codes of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers for conducting engine and boiler trials are in frequent demand by engineers and have therefore been included as an appendix. Authorities have been freely consulted and extensive use made of current engineering literature, due acknowledgment being made by footnote or reference whenever possible. The matter included is representative of American practice and no effort has been made to include any other except in a few special cases. The author wishes to express his obligations to Prof. Raymond Burnham for many valuable suggestions and corrections, and to Mrs. Julia Beveridge, librarian at Armour Institute, for assistance in compiling references.

Excerpt from Steam Power Plants: Their Design and Construction Frequently engineers and others in charge of a manufacturing business, be it a mill, factory or electric generating station, are called upon to design and purchase a steam power plant or parts of it when their knowledge of the machinery that goes into such a plant is more or less limited, and without being able to obtain the benefit of the advice of a competent consulting engineer. It is hoped that this book will be of special value to this class and of some value to all interested in steam power-plant construction. Part of the text appeared in a series of articles in the engineer ing record, and when the demand for them seemed to warrant their' being published in book form they were thoroughly revised and considerable new matter added. A number of the illustrations have been selected from articles printed in the engineering record during the last two or three years descriptive of steam power-plant construction. They are reprinted without the text that accompanied them, thinking they would be suggestive. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Engineering of Power Plants It is simply an epitome of the subject arranged by the authors for convenient classroom use. Originally compiled by One Of the authors in 1908 for use at the Case School of Applied Science, these notes have been used for eight years at that institution and for four years at the University Of Pennsylvania as the fundamental course in power plants for all senior engineering students, including mechanical, electrical, chemical, civil and mining engineers.

Excerpt from Steam Power Plants, Vol. 1: A Treatise for Designing and Constructing Engineers, Architects and Students This volume includes the first part of a treatise covering the design, construction and management of power, heating and ventilating plants. For the convenience of the reader the work has been divided into sections, and the chapters so arranged as to form three volumes, each complete in itself. The matter contained in the following pages is intended to fully cover the design of small and medium size steam power plants. The fundamental elements of the subject are first considered in some detail, after which the various pieces of apparatus em ployed in power work are fully described. The later chapters are devoted to the selection of equipment for different conditions and the assembling of the same in the completed plant. No attempt has been made to cover central station work; only plants similiar to those found in manufactories, office buildings and institutions being considered.
