Roper's Catechism for Steam Engineers and Electricians is a comprehensive guidebook for those interested in the construction and management of steam engines, steam boilers, and electrical plants. Written by Stephen Roper in 1899, this book covers a wide range of topics related to the operation and maintenance of these complex systems. The book begins with an overview of the principles of steam engineering, including the properties of steam and the basic components of a steam engine. It then delves into the construction and management of steam boilers, discussing topics such as fuel, combustion, and boiler safety. The second half of the book focuses on electrical engineering, covering the principles of electricity, the construction of electrical plants, and the operation of electrical machinery. Throughout the book, Roper provides clear and concise explanations of each topic, making it an invaluable resource for engineers, electricians, and anyone interested in the workings of steam engines and electrical plants.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
