This book presents the design and construction of an exhaust gas calorimeter for high-speed automobile engines, along with the results of its testing. It examines the amount of heat lost in the exhaust gases of gas engines, a factor that contributes to about 30-40% of the total available heat. The author, a professor in charge of the Mechanical Engineering Department, supervised the project undertaken by his team of assistants. The book provides a detailed description of the calorimeter's design, method of construction, and testing procedure. It also discusses the challenges faced during the testing phase and the modifications made to the calorimeter to obtain the desired results. The book concludes with a presentation and analysis of the data gathered during the testing, including heat balance plots and calculated exhaust gas losses. The significance of these findings lies in their contribution to a more accurate understanding of heat loss in exhaust gases, which can aid in improving the efficiency of gas engines. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
