Riassunto

Diesel's Rational Heat Motor: A Lecture (1897) is a book written by Rudolf Diesel, the inventor of the diesel engine. The book is a lecture that Diesel gave in 1897, in which he explains the principles behind his invention. Diesel's engine was a revolutionary invention that used compression ignition to burn fuel, rather than relying on a spark to ignite it. This allowed for greater efficiency and power than traditional engines, and it quickly became popular in the shipping and transportation industries. In the lecture, Diesel explains the technical details of his engine, including the use of high compression ratios, the importance of temperature and pressure, and the advantages of using heavy oils as fuel. He also discusses the economic and social implications of his invention, and how it could help to reduce the world's dependence on coal and other non-renewable resources. Overall, Diesel's Rational Heat Motor: A Lecture is an important historical document that sheds light on the development of modern engines and the role of technology in shaping our world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
