Excerpt from Spons' Dictionary of Engineering, Civil, Mechanical, Military, and Naval: With Technical Terms in French, German, Italian, and Spanish
Among this class of turbines we must mention those of the Messrs. Williamson, of Kendal, in which the water is let into the wheel from without. Theoretically this arrangement possesses no advantage; it renders the construction of the turbine more complicated, and oug t to be rejected. As well as Fourneyron's turbine itself, because it requires a volume of water and a velocity of rotation absolutely constant, conditions that can rarely be satisfied in ractice.
When the fall is high, the turbine cannot in general be erected in water-cham constructed of stone and wood, because the expense would be too great. In such a case the turbine is erected in a cast-iron tank fed by a conduit pipe from the n per mill-race. The height of the water in the up r race above the orifices of the revolving whee must be suflicient to revent the formation of ho lows over these orifices; l mare may be considered as a minimum. T is moreover necessary, for the free discharge of the water, to give a sufficient depth to the lower race beneath the wheel, to keep the mean velocity of the water there below or thereabout. These conditions cannot always be satisfied with a turbine and an open water-chamber if the fall is rather a great one, the construction of the lower race in these cases being very expensive. This labour is considerably lessened by means of a very simple contrivance, invented and often applied by M. Girard, a French engineer.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book contains a wealth of information on the varieties of hydraulic machines with technical terms in several languages. It offers a comprehensive overview of the history and development of water wheels, from the primitive undershot wheel to modern turbines. The author delves into the theoretical considerations, efficiency, and practical applications of these machines, providing valuable insights for engineers, millwrights, and anyone interested in the history of technology. The book explores the evolution of turbines, including the contributions of Fourneyron, Euler, and Girard, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of different systems. It also discusses the importance of factors such as fall height and water volume in selecting the appropriate type of hydraulic machine. With its in-depth analysis and detailed descriptions, this book serves as a valuable resource for understanding the principles and applications of water wheels and turbines. 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: 9781334175404_0
