Excerpt from Compressed Air Practice in Mining The First Edition of this book was published in the middle of the Great War and, notwithstanding the absence of Students from the College, it found a ready acceptance, and, with the cessation of the War and return to industrial life, the Edition was soon exhausted. The Authors appointment to a Professorship in India just when the book ran out of print prevented more than slight revision, but the opportunity has been taken to add important Appendices with many new illustrations.

Excerpt from Modern Practice in Mining, Vol. 4: The Ventilation of Mines So far as the author is aware there is no work devoted entirely to a comprehensive consideration of the subject of mine ventilation, though there are several excellent books which treat of certain sides of the subject. It is hoped, therefore, that this little volume may be of some service to the young mining student in arriving at an elementary knowledge of the principles and practice of mine ventilation. For permission to use those of the figures which have not been specially drawn for illustrating the text, the author desires to tender his thanks to the various authors, manufacturers, and institutions from whom they have been borrowed.

Excerpt from Compressed Air Production or the Theory and Practice of Air Compression Compressed air is air under pressure. It is usual to define compressed air as air increased in density by pressure, but we may produce compressed air by heat alone, as illustrated by the discharge of a cork from an empty bottle when heated. Though one of the oldest of the sciences, compressed air is, in its development and use, one of the youngest. Hero, of Alexandria, a century before Christ experimented and wrote upon Pneumatics, calling special attention to the influence of heat in expanding and contracting air. It is said that Hero put into practical use an invention by which the opening and closing of temple doors was effected by the alternate rarefaction and condensation of air which was brought in contact with heated and cooled surfaces of altar tops. Yet the science of pneumatics played no important part in industrial progress until scarcely more than a century ago it came into general use for diving-bells, and was later on applied by Brunei to caisson work. In 1830 the French Academy of Sciences gave a medal to Thillorier for his method of compressing gases by stages. In 1849 the Baron von Rathen suggested the use of compressed air at 750 pounds pressure per square inch in locomotives. It is a singular fact that the Baron, in describing the method by which he proposed to attain this high pressure, advised compound compressors with inter-coolers. The special advantages of cooling the air between the different stages of compression were set forth. This stage compression and inter-cooling is one of the most important recent improvements made in air-compressing machinery. Until recent years the use of compressed air in America has been confined almost exclusively to mining, tunneling, bridge building, or to work in a confined space for which no other power was available. Electricity has recently become a competitor of compressed air in that it, too, may be used in confined spaces, and may be transmitted long distances and distributed. Until such competition arose the question of producing compressed air economically was but little agitated. The attention of engineers was mainly devoted to the development of an apparatus for using compressed air, it being taken for granted that air was an expensive power at best. The manufacturer sought to perfect his compressor on lines of low first cost, light weight, economy of space and general availability. Dry, pure air, delivered at a sufficient pressure by a machine which could be depended upon, has been the controlling consideration. Reprinted from Compressed Air.

Excerpt from Compressed Air Plant: The Production, Transmission and Use of Compressed Air The increasing use of compressed air makes the subject of interest to practitioners in nearly all branches of engineering. Besides its more important power applications, such as the operation of rock-drills, air brakes, riveting machines, and railroad switching and signalling systems, the uses of compressed air are numerous in many minor branches of mechanical engineering, in caisson work and the construction of subaqueous foundations, and in manufacturing industries, chemical works, etc., where it serves a multitude of purposes entirely distinct from that of the transmission of power. A realization of the breadth of the field has suggested that a book may be acceptable, addressed especially to those who are engaged in mining, tunnelling, quarrying, and other work involving the excavation of rock, with its concomitant operations. While the literature bearing upon this branch of compressed-air service is by no means small, it is for the most part scattered through the technical periodicals and transactions of engineering societies, and therefore not readily accessible to those who are out of convenient reach of engineering libraries. I am aware that little that is new can be said on this subject, and in writing the book I have availed myself freely of existing sources of information. In the first part, I have endeavored to present a view of current practice as to the construction and operation of compressors. Portions of the subject are dealt with at some length, such as: the types of compressor suitable for different kinds of service, heat, losses occurring in air compression, and the various forms of valves, valve-motions, and governing and unloading mechanisms, that constitute prominent features of modern compressor practice.
