801 Steam Power Plants. [Hancock.]

Lectures 1-2, Thursday, Friday, Saturday.

In the previous course a general knowledge has been obtained of
steam equipment, each piece of apparatus having been considered as
a separate unit. Here is studied the interrelation and arrangement
of this apparatus for the production of power. The fundamental
problem of power generation by the use of steam at a minimum cost
is treated as thoroughly as may be in the time allotted. Weekly exercises
and problems for private solution add to the interest and
value of the course.

[Required, Winter, in Courses I (4); II, III, V (2); IV (3).]
