Book Synopsis Steam-powered workshops as model by : Volker Koch
Download or read book Steam-powered workshops as model written by Volker Koch and published by Verlag für Technik und Handwerk. This book was released on with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of steam engines to drive machine tools was the cornerstone of the first industrial revolution, and it was only the use of electric motors that made the complicated - and not entirely harmless - transmissions superfluous. No wonder, then, that model makers are also fascinated by such workshops with their complex mechanics. But how do you build such a workshop? Can you build it yourself? Or can commercially available components be used to create an attractive steam workshop? Volker Koch answers these questions and many more in his extensively illustrated book, which revives a fascinating piece of technical history. From the content: Driving machines, transmissions, operating models The "three-part machine system” Driving machines for model workshops Transmissions for model workshops Operating models for model workshops Drive by a simple model locomobile Robust self-made steam engine A simple hammer mill with steam drive Model workshop with Märklin components A simple Mamod layout Self-made operating models

Book Synopsis Norden: Building a Working Model Victorian Steam Engine by : Neil Wyatt
Download or read book Norden: Building a Working Model Victorian Steam Engine written by Neil Wyatt and published by . This book was released on 2017-02-16 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the attractions of model engineering is the opportunity to makes a model of something that no-one has tackled before. Some old engravings have almost every detail in them, but it is possible to make a feasible reconstruction of a model from even the most basic of information. There is no magic formula required, just model engineer's ingenuity and perhaps an ability to 'think in scale'. This is the story of how the author went about recreating a 'lost' steam engine. Based on a sketch and letter from a 1947 issue of Model Engineer the book includes copious colour photographs, plans and full build notes, as well as a source for castings. Full size plans to complement the book can be downloaded from http://www.stubmandrel.co.uk/model-engineering/2-norden-a-vertical-steam-engine, The model is relatively small in size, and i therefore suitable for owners of Myford ML7 or Super 7 lathes or 7 x14 and similar imported Mini Lathes.

Download or read book Modelling and Control of Electric Power Plants written by C. Maffezzoni and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-05-23 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modelling and Control of Electric Power Plants focuses on the modeling and simulation of thermal and nuclear units; the methods and technologies of advanced control systems that are applied in power stations; the design and analysis of man-machine systems; and the processes in power generation. Contained in the book are the literature of contributors who have done research on design and operation of electric power plants. The book begins with the development of models of electric power plants and nuclear power plants. Simulations, analysis, and studies are conducted to test the processes and controls that are instituted in the operations of these plants. Another part of the discussion focuses on the control mechanisms that are employed in plants. These computer control systems are deemed essential in the operations of these plants. The role that computers play in plants is noted, which is particularly observed in the operation of equipment, control of conditions, and application of operational processes in these areas. Some of the areas in which modeling is carried out include electric power plants, fossil fuel power plants, boilers, and coal plants. The discussions can be a source of information to those interested in the design, control, and operation of power plants.

Book Synopsis History of Technology by : Ian Inkster
Download or read book History of Technology written by Ian Inkster and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While political and social historians have made great progress in trying to understand the making of modern Greece by studying * politics and power struggles, little attention has been given TO the co-evolution of the Greek state and the technologies that were developed during this period. This volume HELPS fills this gap, exploring the formation of the Greek state and the construction of 'modern' Greece through the lens of the history of technology and industry. The contributors look at the role of engineering institutions, the press and of infrastructure technological networks in promoting specific technocratic ideals and legitimizing social roles for the engineers of the period. The volume as a whole offers new insights into the way that engineering culture, institutional reforms and infrastructures contributed to the making of 'modern' Greece. Special Issue: History of Technology in Greece, from the Early 19th to 21st Century Edited by Stathis Arapostathis and Aristotelis Tympas

Book Synopsis Steam-Powered Knowledge by : Aileen Fyfe
Download or read book Steam-Powered Knowledge written by Aileen Fyfe and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-02-28 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the overwhelming amount of new information that bombards us each day, it is perhaps difficult to imagine a time when the widespread availability of the printed word was a novelty. In early nineteenth-century Britain, print was not novel—Gutenberg’s printing press had been around for nearly four centuries—but printed matter was still a rare and relatively expensive luxury. All this changed, however, as publishers began employing new technologies to astounding effect, mass-producing instructive and educational books and magazines and revolutionizing how knowledge was disseminated to the general public. In Steam-Powered Knowledge, Aileen Fyfe explores the activities of William Chambers and the W. & R. Chambers publishing firm during its formative years, documenting for the first time how new technologies were integrated into existing business systems. Chambers was one of the first publishers to abandon traditional skills associated with hand printing, instead favoring the latest innovations in printing processes and machinery: machine-made paper, stereotyping, and, especially, printing machines driven by steam power. The mid-nineteenth century also witnessed dramatic advances in transportation, and Chambers used proliferating railway networks and steamship routes to speed up communication and distribution. As a result, his high-tech publishing firm became an exemplar of commercial success by 1850 and outlived all of its rivals in the business of cheap instructive print. Fyfe follows Chambers’s journey from small-time bookseller and self-trained hand-press printer to wealthy and successful publisher of popular educational books on both sides of the Atlantic, demonstrating along the way the profound effects of his and his fellow publishers’ willingness, or unwillingness, to incorporate these technological innovations into their businesses.

Book Synopsis Workshop of the World by : Raphael Samuel
Download or read book Workshop of the World written by Raphael Samuel and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2024-01-23 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new collection of essays from one of the most influential historians of the twentieth century ‘ONE OF THE MOST OUTSTANDING, ORIGINAL INTELLECTUALS OF HIS GENERATION’, Stuart Hall, author of The Hard Road to Renewal The work of the pioneering historian Raphael Samuel opened up new vistas of historical enquiry. He was committed to the idea of people’s history, in which he excavated the ordinary lives of those often overlooked or discarded by other writers. This ‘unofficial knowledge’ transformed what history was, who was allowed to do it, and who it was for. Workshop of the World brings the full range and depth of Samuel’s historical writing on nineteenth-century Britain to the fore. From his pioneering study of the influence of the Catholic Church on England’s Irish population to his expansive and erudite essay on the itinerant labourers of Victorian Britain, the collection captures both the breadth and depth of his learning. Guided by both a political engagement as well as a methodological commitment to uncovering the stories of ordinary people, Workshop of the World will help introduce Raphael Samuel’s work to a new generation of readers.
