The Theory Of The Gas Engine (1882) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781164087595)

The Theory of the Gas Engine, written by Dugald Clerk and first published in 1882, is a comprehensive study of the principles and mechanics of gas engines. Clerk was a Scottish engineer who made significant contributions to the development of internal combustion engines, particularly in the area of fuel injection. In this book, he provides a detailed examination of the theoretical basis for gas engines, including the processes of combustion, expansion, and compression. He also discusses the various types of gas engines, their design and operation, and their practical applications. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, with numerous diagrams and illustrations to help readers understand the complex concepts involved. Although it was written over a century ago, The Theory of the Gas Engine remains an important reference for anyone interested in the history and development of internal combustion engines.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
