Σελίδα 544 - The greatest fluidity consistent with the preceding requirements, ie, the least fluid-friction allowable. (3) The lowest possible coefficient of friction under the conditions of actual use, ie, the sum of the two components, solid and fluid friction, should be a minimum. (4) A maximum capacity for receiving, transmitting, storing, and carrying away heat.
Σελίδα 307 - Work done on any system of bodies (in Newton's statement, the parts of any machine) has its equivalent in work done against friction, molecular forces, or gravity, if there be no acceleration ; but if there be acceleration, part of the work is expended in overcoming the resistance- to acceleration, and the additional kinetic energy developed is equivalent to the work so spent.
Σελίδα 247 - Change of motion is proportional to the force impressed, and in the direction of the right line in which that force acts. 3. Action is always opposed by reaction ; action and reaction are equal, and in directly contrary directions. We may add to these principles a definition of a force, which is equally and absolutely complete : Force is that which produces, or tends to produce, motion, or change of motion, in bodies.
Σελίδα 36 - ... the art of engineering than any man of his time, and he entertained and urged more advanced opinions and more statesmanlike views, in relation to the economical importance of the improvement of the steam engine, both on land and •water, than seem to have been attributable to any other leading engineer of that time.
Σελίδα 21 - The quantity of water evaporated in a certain boiler by a pound of coal. "4. The elasticities of steam at various temperatures greater than that of boiling water, and an approximation to the law which it follows at other temperatures. "5. How much water in the form of steam was required every stroke by a small Newcomen engine, with a wooden cylinder 6 inches in diameter and 12 inches stroke.
Σελίδα 317 - If the total actual heat of a homogeneous and uniformly hot substance be conceived to be divided into any number of equal parts, the effects of those parts in causing work to be performed are equal.
Σελίδα 489 - ... jacket," or annular casing enveloping the cylinder, filled with hot steam from the boiler, which was one of the inventions of Watt, is to prevent that liquefaction of the steam in the cylinder. That liquefaction does not, when it first takes place, directly constitute a waste of heat or of energy; for it is accompanied by a corresponding performance of work. It does, however, afterwards, by an indirect process, diminish the efficiency of the engine; for the water which becomes liquid in the cylinder,...
Σελίδα 548 - The bearing surfaces of watch-work are often made of ruby, agate, and other fine-grained and hard stones, and of gems. A comparison made by the author between surfaces of gun-bronze, of "Babbitt"-metal, and of other soft, white alloys, all working on steel, proved all to have substantially the same friction. In other words, the coefficient of friction was determined by the nature of the unguent and not by that of the rubbing surfaces, when the latter are in good order. The soft metals, however, heated...
Σελίδα 623 - in which I found the steam-engine, it was no great effort of mind to observe that the quantity of fuel necessary to make it work would for ever prevent its extensive utility. The next step in my progress was equally easy — to inquire what was the cause of the great consumption of fuel : this, too, was readily suggested, viz., the waste of fuel which was necessary to bring the whole cylinder, piston, and adjacent parts from the coldness of water to the heat of steam, no fewer than from fifteen...
Σελίδα 27 - The regulation is effected by a "cataract," a kind of hydraulic governor, consisting of a plunger-pump with a reservoir attached. The plunger is raised by the engine, and then automatically detached. It falls with greater or less rapidity, its velocity being determined by the size of the eduction orifice, which is adjustable by hand. When the plunger reaches the bottom of the pump-barrel, it disengages a catch, a weight is allowed to act upon the steam-valve, opening it, and the engine is caused...
