Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mechanical Stokers Including the Theory of Combustion of Coal There are few, if any, books on Mechanical Stokers, which are, available for young engineers to study in preparation for combustion or stoker work. Many books have been published on boilers, furnaces and power plant equipment treated as a whole, but none treating stokers as separate units. Nor have any of these outlined the best modern practice in stoker installation and use. There seems to be a demand for such a book; treating on combustion as it applies specifically to stoker work, with something definite about mechanical stokers and their applications, as well as the factors affecting their selection for differing conditions and widely differing fuels. This book is presented to fill this need. It is a record of firsthand knowledge of combustion and stoker work gained in years of theoretical and practical experience. The endeavor throughout is to give reliable unbiased opinions and facts from actual field experience in the design, installation and operation of stokers. The Authors feel that there are great possibilities in a book of this character; something which will cover the entire stoker industry. With this thought in mind, constructive criticism and suggestions arc invited, to the end that new ideas may be incorporated when a revision is found necessary.
