This book documents the results of the first-ever laboratory tests conducted on a locomotive, focusing on a typical consolidation (2-8-0) engine. The author presents the data and results of these tests, offering a snapshot of the general performance of the locomotive and its boiler and engines. The author emphasizes that the locomotive had been in service for several years and had undergone several repairs before testing, which readers should consider when interpreting the results. The text also discusses the boiler's performance, fuel consumption, evaporation rates, and efficiency. It explores engine performance, including indicated horsepower, drawbar horsepower, and machine friction. Finally, the author discusses the locomotive's general performance, presenting data on coal consumption, general efficiency, and cinder loss. The book offers a valuable and detailed account of the performance of steam locomotives, providing insights into their efficiency and operation during a specific historical period.

This book presents an in-depth analysis of a series of comparative tests conducted to assess the steam-producing capacities of various sizes of coal used in locomotive service. The tests were conducted by the author in collaboration with the International Railway Fuel Association and the United States Bureau of Mines. Various sizes of coal were burned in a Mikado (2-8-2) type locomotive under controlled conditions, and the results were carefully tabulated and analyzed. The book provides a wealth of data on the relative evaporative efficiencies, cinder losses, and heat transfer characteristics of the different coal sizes. The findings offer valuable insights into the optimal selection and use of coal for locomotive fuel, contributing to a more efficient and environmentally conscious railway industry.

This book investigates the loss in heat transmission due to the presence of scale in locomotive boiler tubes, providing essential data for determining the loss in heat transmission for various thicknesses of scale. The author outlines the relevant experiments conducted in 1901, 1904, and 1905, which involved testing tubes furnished by various railroad companies. Chemical analyses of the scale found on the tubes and the corresponding average loss in heat transmission were also recorded. The graphs presented illustrate the loss in heat transmission plotted against thickness, hardness, and chemical composition. The author concludes that the loss in heat transmission may vary from negligible amounts to as much as 10 or 12 percent. These findings are significant for understanding the impact of scale on boiler efficiency and for developing strategies to mitigate heat loss.
