Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Relative Proportions of the Steam-Engine: A Course of Lectures on the Steam-Engine, Delivered to the Students of Dynamical Engineering in the University of Pennsylvania
IT is a source of regret to the author of these Lectures that none of the distinguished writers upon Mechanics or the Steam-engine have undertaken to give, in a simple and practical form, rules and formulae for the determination of the relative proportions of the component parts of the steam-engine.
