This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Not illustrated. 1914 Excerpt: ... one twin engine of the same cylinder dimensions, rated at no B.H.P. The maximum indicated horse-power is, on producer gas, respectively, 70 and 140. Both units are direct connected to directcurrent generators, and run 200 revolutions per minute. The fly-wheels are 8'--6" outside diameter and their mean radius of the rim is 3.9 feet. The weight of the wheel for the twin-engine is 11,500 lbs. Its weight reduced to the mean rad. of the rim 9,900 lbs. The armature wgt. redd. to the "mean rad. of the rim 1,600 lbs. Total wgt. redd. to the mean rad. of the rim 11,500 lbs. The corresponding weight for the single engine is 12,100 lbs. Inserting the various values in formula 106, using, in the case of the twin engine,/= 1.04 and, in the case of the single engine, / = 2.4, and solving for K we obtain: In the case of the twin engine, K = 100, and in the case of the single engine K = 90. The current furnished by these engines produces, under all conditions, a very satisfactory light, both when the engines run singly or in parallel. The values of the coefficient K, from 90 to 120, as quoted in Table XXI, for services such as the above, can, therefore, be considered fully conservative. Example.--The installation of three "Snow" four-cycle double-acting, twin-tandem engines at the Gas and Electric Light Co.,s station in San Francisco, which operate alternatingcurrent generators very successfully in parallel, may be used as an illustration for the computation of heavy wheels. The engines are of the following general specifications: Four double-acting cylinders, 42 X 60. Power, 4,000 rated B.H.P., or 5,400 maximum I.H.P. The fly-wheel, 23 feet outside diameter; mean radius 11 feet. Its weight, 97,000 pounds, and it makes 88 revolutions per minute. The g...

Excerpt from The Modern Gas-Engine and the Gas-Producer In order to acquire a working knowledge of the subject, the general types of gas-engines in successful operation at present should be studied, in connection with the general laws on which their design and operation must be based, because from these types, according to the laws of evolution, there naturally will be developed the successful types of the future. Chapter XIV is devoted to this branch of the subject, and the author here takes occasion to express his appreciation of the generosity with which engine-builders have placed illustrations and information at his disposal.
