Synopsis
Explore the science and machines behind heat engines, from steam to turbines.
This edition presents a reasoned, practical look at thermodynamics and the engineering of heat engines. It blends theory with the real-world behavior of engines, pumps, and turbines, drawing on the latest steam tables and graphic methods to aid English engineers and students.
With updates that include Callendar and Mollier’s work, the book emphasizes usable data, multiple unit systems, and a clear, accessible approach to complex topics all within a historical and technical context.
- Foundations of thermodynamics and the working substance in heat engines.
- Detailed treatment of steam properties, saturated and superheated steam, and the Rankine cycle.
- Discussion of steam turbines, marine engines, and locomotive power methods.
- Practical approaches to testing, efficiency, and real engine performance.
Ideal for readers interested in the science behind steam power and its modern applications in engineering and education.
