Beschreibung

This new unmarked copy is bound in illustrated card covers as issued. It has subsequently been professionally bound in full black leather with bright gilt titling to the spine and the upper board. The text block is tight white, bright and square. International postal rates are calculated on a book weighing 1 Kilo, in cases where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. Where the book weighs more than 1 Kilo increased charges will be quoted, where the book weighs less then postage will be reduced accordingly. First published in 1991 by Calvert Technical Press, this copy is a 1993 reprint. The book covers technical aspects of the application of steam engine principles applicable to the many smaller engines existing in everyday use some 75 years ago. Everything from basic thermodynamics to the mechanical details of pistons, cylinders and valves. If you need to know and understand how a steam engine works this is the book for you. Published some years after the author's death in 1984 it's written in a very readable style and the maths is kept simple but useful. It must be by far the most modern book available on steam engines at this level. Ref S 5.
