Excerpt from Power Plant Testing: A Manual of Testing Engines, Turbines, Boilers, Pumps, Refrigerating Machinery, Fans, Fuels, Materials of Construction, Etc
ON account of the very great extension of experimental work in engi neering laboratories, and the great demand for a suitable manual of small size and clearly written for the use of students, this book has been largely rewritten and a number of new sections have been added to make it more adaptable to the large number of engineering schools using it as a text.

Excerpt from Power Plant Testing: A Manual of Testing Engines, Turbines, Boilers, Pumps, Refrigerating Machinery, Fans, Fuels, Materials of Construction, Etc
In the preparation of this book the object in view has been primarily to give in a small volume, somewhat in detail, the generally approved methods of testing engines, turbines, boilers and the auxiliary machinery usually found in power plants, as well as to present more or less complete descriptions of the various kinds of apparatus used and the calibrations required for accurate testing. In addition to this subject-matter, chapters have been prepared on the testing of fuels, refrigerating and hydraulic machinery, as well as on the proper methods and the machinery to be used in making tests of the strength of the materials commonly used in the construction of buildings.
As a book for students in laboratory courses it is intended particularly for use in large classes in which at the beginning of the laboratory periods it is necessary to begin at the same time a number of different experiments and tests. On this account care has been taken to state as clearly as possible the descriptions of the apparatus to be used and the precautions to be observed to secure accuracy in the results. Students should be expected, however, to rely to some extent on their own initiative.
In most respects the book is probably complete enough in descriptive matter and in general instructions so that very little lecture-room work is needed for at least elementary courses. It is the authors opinion that students in experimental engineering laboratories should not receive a great deal of assistance in planning and conducting tests. Sometime they mist learn to be resourceful and independent of the "school" type of instruction and obviously the sooner this is appreciated by both instructors and students the greater will be the benefits.
