Excerpt from A Text-Book on Steam and Steam Engines: Specially Arranged for the Use of Science and Art, City and Guilds of London Institute, and Other Engineering Students Although all the questions (elementary, advanced, and hon. Ours) that have been set at the Examinations in Steam of the Science and Art Department for the last ten years, as well as most of those in the Steam Section of the City and Guilds of London Institute's Examinations for Mechanical Engineering, besides many others, have been systematically arranged at the end of the Lectures in accordance with their order of treatment, the work is not by any means intended as a mere cram-book for these examinations. It is designed to be an easy introduction to Professor Rankine's well-known treatise on The Steam Engine, and to Mr. Seaton's practical and highly appreciated Manual qf Marine Engineering, both issued by the publishers of the present volume. In all new and specially done cuts a uniform system of refer ence letters has been observed throughout the book, viz., the use of the first letter or letters of the name or names of the parts has been adopted to indicate the part, and, in addition to a general description of the figures, an index to the parts has. Been printed either immediately underneath or alongside of the same. This system is always insisted upon by me with my own students in writing out their home exercises or examinations, and I have found that it greatly facilitates the reading of draw ings, as well as a quick understanding of the different parts of a. Machine. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ... This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
