Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a collection of properties of steam, derived from experimental measurements calibrated with theoretical models of the behavior of water and steam. The theoretical basis of the work is explained, and the data are tabulated for a wide range of pressures and temperatures up to the critical point, along with formulas for interpolating between data points and for calculating thermodynamic properties in general. This book was instrumental in the development of steam engines, steam turbines, and other steam-powered machines that would change the world during the Industrial Revolution. The properties of steam continue to be important in the design and operation of power plants and other heat-powered systems. 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.…
