Sinopsis
Excerpt from Notes on Heating and Ventilation
Work is measured in foot-pounds. The unit of work is the work required to raise one pound through a height of one foot. Ten units of work or ten foot pounds would be the amount of work done in raising ten pounds One foot high or one pound ten feet high. Heat is a form of motion, hence there must be some definite relation between heat and work. This relation was first determined by Joule. By a series of experiments Joule found that one heat unit was equivalent to 778 foot-pounds. It is possible, then, to express heat either in heat units or in foot-pounds.

Excerpt from Notes on Heating and Ventilation
The chapters comprising this book are a brief resumé of the lectures delivered by the author to the classes in heating and ventilation at the University of Michigan. The subject matter was first published as a series of articles in Domestic Engineering.
The book has been written primarily for the steamfitter and designer of heating systems. It presupposes a knowledge of the construction and operation of the simpler forms of heating systems and has been reduced to as brief a form as possible so that the reader can readily find the notes or data desired.
The design of heating and ventilating systems has not been reduced to an exact science. The factor of judgment and experience in designing heating plants is a large one. One reason for this is the lack of exact experimental data governing some of the most important factors entering into these calculations. This lack must be filled from the designer's experience.
The tables of heat losses from radiating surfaces and the tests of pipe coverings have been compiled from the results obtained from the experiments made under the direction of Prof. M. E. Cooley, Dean of the Department of Engineering, University of Michigan. The author also has shown illustrations of tunnel sections which have been used by Prof. Cooley in the design of a number of central heating systems.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is an easy-to-follow guide to steam heating systems for steam fitters and designers. The author begins by explaining the theory of heat and then provides rules for determining the heat losses in different constructions. The different forms of heating systems are then discussed, and their advantages and disadvantages are compared. The author then provides detailed instructions on how to design a direct steam heating system, including information on the properties of steam and the sizing of pipes. The book also includes information on indirect steam heating systems, hot water heating systems, and ventilation systems. This book is a valuable resource for anyone who wants to learn more about steam heating systems. The author provides clear and concise explanations of the principles of operation, and the book is illustrated with numerous diagrams and examples. 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. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781332061150_0
