Book Description
Excerpt from The Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engine, Vol. 1: Thermodynamics of the Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engine, Together With Historical Sketch This work was first published in 1886 under the title of 'The Gas Engine.' Considerable additions were made to it in 1896 and the title was altered to 'The Gas and Oil Engine.' Both the science and practice of Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engines have developed so largely since 1896 that it has become necessary to rewrite practically the whole book. To treat science and practice adequately necessitated considerable additional space; and, accordingly, the book has been divided into two volumes, each, however, complete in itself. The first volume has been entitled 'Thermodynamics of the Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engine,' and the second volume will be entitled 'The Gas, Petrol, and Oil Engine in Practice.' The present volume consists of an enlarged historical sketch, broadly dealing with the important developments down to 1908, and the science of the subject is treated in nine chapters. In this treatment the original book is followed closely, so far as arrangement is concerned. Chapters I. and II. deal with the gas engine method and classification of gas engines. Chapter III. on 'Thermodynamics' has been greatly enlarged to deal more fully with cycles of operation of practical importance to-day. Chapter IV., on 'The Causes of Loss in Gas Engines,' has also been enlarged. Chapter V., on 'Combustion and Explosion,' has been added to. Chapter VI. has been greatly enlarged to include the consideration of Cooling as well as Explosion in a Closed Vessel and the more recent experiments of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Grover, Clerk, the Royal College of Science, Petavel, and Hopkinson have been fully dealt with. Information upon the Laws of Explosion and Cooling has greatly increased even within the last six years. The work of the various investigators has been described in a manner which it is hoped will be useful to the engineer.
