Excerpt from Model Steam Turbines: How to Design and Build Them; A Practical Handbook for Model-Makers
Steam turbines may be divided into two classes: the impulse or action type, in which a jet of steam or fluid at high velocity impinges on a number Of vanes or paddles fixed around the rim Of a wheel free to rotate, and the reaction type, more generally known as Hero's Engine or Barker's mill.
Both these types are pretty familiar to us from our Childhood's days, in the windows of the toyshop, and no doubt in many cases (the writer's also) formed our first steam model. They are illustrated in figs. 1 and 2, and frequently appear in patent specifications, though, of course, with considerable modification.
In order that the principles on which these machines are designed and for which they depend on their action may be thoroughly understood, the following elementary mechanical considerations are necessary.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of model steam turbines, guiding readers through the process of designing and building these miniature marvels of engineering. At a time when steam power was revolutionizing industry, the author recognized the potential of turbines for model enthusiasts. This book provides a comprehensive look at the principles behind both impulse and reaction turbines, offering practical insights into their construction and operation. Readers will embark on a journey through fundamental mechanical concepts, exploring the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration. The author then applies these principles to the specific challenges of turbine design, including calculating steam flow and pressure on blades. With detailed instructions and clear illustrations, this book empowers readers to create their own miniature turbines, harnessing the power of steam in the palm of their hand. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
