1984-01-01 Stirling engines are external combustion engines that use air or other gases as working fluid. They can burn any solid or liquid fuel as their heat source. This makes them very attractive, particularly in situations where conventional fuels are expensive and hard to obtain. Because some types of...
The purpose of this book is to illuminate the principles of construction, operation, and maintenance of engines and tractors. Mathematical equations and problems often provide the best means to illuminate such principles, but the mathematics here is at a level that is accessible to the...
