‎Steam Engines - Engineering Education Series‎

‎290 pages including index. Illustrated with line drawings. Probable first printing as printing/impression not stated. Written to serve as a textbook for correspondence students in the University of Wisconsin Extension Division. The third of a series of three textbooks designed for those students pursuing a general course in Steam Engineering. Covers the fundamental principles underlying the operation of the steam engine in as simple and nonmathematical a way as possible. Section on valve gears is more complete than other sections as this topic is usually less understood than others by operating engineers. Chapters include: Principles of the Steam Engine; Corliss and Other Engines; Parts of the Steam Engine; Heat, Work, and Pressure; Properties of Steam; Indicators; Indicated and Brake Horsepower; Action of Steam in the Cylinder; Steam Engine Testing; The Slide Valve; The Valve Diagram; Valve Setting; Shifting Eccentric and Meyer Valve; Reversing Mechanisms; Corliss Valve Gears; Coverning; Compound Engines; Condensing Apparatus; Lubrication; Steam Turbines. Former owner's signature inside front board, else unmarked. Gilt lettering upon spine worn but legible. Green boards with ample but not excessive wear. Book‎

Half-black calf over black cloth gilt lettering stamped on front cover leather corners minor chipping & wear head & foot of spine scuffing to spine wear to corners still VG- copy. This manuscript thesis details the testing and evaluation of the newly developed Parsons Steam Turbine which was invented by Sir Charles Parsons in 1884 and revolutionized engineering across many fields in the Victorian era. His turbine extracted thermal engineering from pressurized steam allowing a rotating output shaft especially suited for driving electrical generators. In 1897 just four years before this work was researched and published the Parsons engine was applied to the ship Turbinia the first ship powered by the very successful enginer. Ehrhart 1874-1941 & Cardullo 1879-1938 were both electrical engineering students at Cornell University. After graudation Ehrhart became an electrical engineer with expertise in turbines for Westinghouse in Pittsburgh and by the end of World War I Ehrhart was a manager of the Elliott Electrical Engineering Company in Edgewood PA nice suburb of Pittsburgh. Cardullo became a professor of mechanical engineering wrote on thermodynamics and later worked as the chief draftsman of the Pierce-Arrow Motor Car Co. before becoming the head of engineering testing for the Curtiss Aeroplane & Motor Co. in Buffalo NY.
