This book examines steam engines, their functions, and operations. It is the result of a collaboration between a civil engineer and an associate professor of mechanics. Published in 1877, this book delves into the industrial use of steam engines, explaining how they can be applied in different industrial sectors. The author's intent is to further industrial applications of steam power by making the calculations and processes of steam engine construction more accessible to the average engineer. The book includes detailed descriptions of the types of steam engines in use at the time of publication, including both stationary and locomotive engines. It also provides guidance on how to calculate the power and efficiency of a steam engine, and how to troubleshoot common problems. This book is a valuable resource for engineers and historians interested in the history of steam power. It provides a detailed look at the state of steam engine technology in the late 19th century, and it offers insights into the challenges and opportunities that engineers faced during the Industrial Revolution.
