Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from Text Book on Motor Car Engineering, Vol. 1

This book is primarily intended for the use of students of Motor Car Engineering; but it is hoped that many engaged in this branch of Engineering science, including owners of cars, will derive some benefit from a perusal of this volume, which has been mainly written from the notes used by the Author in his lectures to Ordinary and Honours Grade Students at the Polytechnic School of Engineering, Regent Street, W.

An attempt has been made to cover the Syllabus of the City and Guilds of London Institute in this subject, which, as may be seen from pages 404 to 407, is very extensive, but it is believed that nothing vital has been omitted excepting the Materials of Construction and the problem of Balancing, which belong properly speaking to Design, and have therefore been included in Volume II. of this work.

The Automobile Engineer should have a good working knowledge of thermodynamics, mechanics, chemistry, electricity and mathematics, in order that he may intelligently carry out his work. This is often difficult for him to obtain, and although the space available precludes an extensive study of these subjects, the hope is expressed that the information contained in this volume will materially assist him in understanding the principles of Motor Car construction.

The Author is indebted, in several instances, to the descriptive matter contained in the booklets issued by the Manufacturers of certain Specialities, for the descriptions which appear in the text.
