Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the intriguing and complex world of steel under high temperatures. The author delves into the challenges of accurately measuring how steel behaves under stress and heat, a topic of growing importance for engineers working with steam installations and other high-temperature applications. This book goes beyond simply presenting data; it explores the fundamental physical properties of steel, how they change with temperature, and how different alloys behave under varying conditions. The author meticulously describes the evolution of testing methods and apparatus, including the Babcock & Wilcox creep testing apparatus, a marvel of engineering designed to monitor the deformation of steel over extended periods. The book examines the relationship between various steel compositions, their microstructure, and their ability to withstand stress and strain at high temperatures. In a departure from previous works, the author demonstrates that austenitic steels, known for their softness and ductility at normal temperatures, exhibit remarkable rigidity under high temperatures. This book offers vital insight into the intricacies of steel behavior at high temperatures, laying a foundation for informed and safe engineering design in a wide array of industries. 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.…
