Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a vast compendium of steam-related data culled from experiments conducted by French scientist Regnault in the mid-19th century. First published in the 1840s, this book significantly advanced our understanding of steam power at a time when steam engines were coming to dominate industrial processes around the world. The author presents formulas to calculate the total heat, latent heat, and heat of the liquid from which the steam is made, providing a thorough analysis of the properties of steam at various pressures and temperatures. The book's careful compilation of data and precise mathematical formulas laid the groundwork for the safe and efficient use of steam power, making it an essential reference for engineers and scientists working in the field of thermodynamics.
