Excerpt from Gas Engine Design
All those whose interests have demanded such a quantitative knowledge of the gas - engine, either for probable output and econ omy or for the stresses in and proper strength of resisting engine parts, have met with difficulty in finding reliable data for reference, as there is no book in English treating exclusively of this side of the subject. The data here presented are the result of many years' collection and personal experience, and were first classified in the present form for lecture use before my classes at Columbia Univer sity. The increase in quantity of material during the last few years made it seem desirable to publish the notes in as closely condensed a form as possible consistent with clearness.
