Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Prevention of Smoke: Combined With the Economical Combustion of Fuel The scheme of this little book is of the simplest. The greater part of the text may be said to consist of a brief statement of the principles which underlie the smokeless and economical combustion of fuel; a description of the most recent practice in burning fuel for commercial purposes; a résumé of a number of complete trials recently carried out, with the object of showing what are the best methods of dealing with coal for the purpose of steam raising, in a manner which is economical and at the same time smokeless ; and, lastly, of a summary of the law as it relates to the smoke question. It is hoped that the information brought together in these pages may be found useful to those who are particularly interested in this question of a purer atmosphere in our towns, as well as to steam users generally. The author wishes to tender his acknowledgments for much valuable help which he has obtained from Mr. Bryan Donkin´s valuable book on Boiler Tests; to Dr. Cohen and Mr. F. Grover, of Leeds, for their assistance in providing illustrations; and to the many engineers who have kindly lent blocks for illustrations of their own particular machines.
