This book is a comprehensive guide to the thermodynamics and mechanics of the steam engine, a subject which formed the basis of the first industrial revolution. The author, an experienced professor of mechanical engineering, begins by laying a solid foundation in the fundamental principles of the steam engine before moving on to describe the working of the main working mechanism in detail, giving special attention to force-action and motion, working forces and friction. The theoretical design of the engine is also covered in detail, along with more specialized topics such as the steam-jet and entropy-temperature analysis. This book is an essential resource for students seeking a foundational understanding of the steam engine and for experienced engineers seeking to expand their knowledge of this important subject.
