Excerpt from Engine Tests and Boiler Efficiencies

In this edition I have made considerable alterations and additions in almost every chapter of the book,especially in those parts which are concerned with the theory of indicators, the analysis of the working of their various parts, the description of new apparatus, such as indicators, with exterior springs for use with high pressure engines or when the steam has been superheated, explosion recorders for gas, petrol or alcohol engines, apparatus for reducing the scale of the reciprocating motion and the methods of setting it up, apparatus for verifying the flexibility of the springs of the indicators, etc. I have also made some additions to the chapter on brakes. In the second edition I had added a chapter on transmission dynamo-meters for use in measuring the work transmitted from the prime mover to the machine which it drives. This chapter, however, grew so large, especially that part of it which dealt with the theory of the dynamo-brake, that it appeared better to make this the subject of a separate book.
