Jerome K. Jerome
Theory of Lubrication
$27.46
Book
This is the first English edition of a book that, since its publication in Romania in 1957, has been recognized as a masterwork on the theory of lubrication. New material and a new chapter on lubrication in turbulent flow have been provided for the English edition.
The purpose of the book is to present a complete picture of hydro- and aerodynamic lubrication that will permit immediate practical application, illustrated by situations actually encountered in machine design and construction.
Three general considerations on friction and the motion of viscous fluids are presented at the beginning, followed by a chapter on lubricants, in which data on different types of lubricants are given. The remaining chapters are concerned with fluid and gas lubrication between solid walls. Important results obtained by other investigators have been included, but, in the main, the material presented is the results of the author's own investigations.
The book is illustrated with more than 200 line drawings and many graphs.
Professor Tipei is Head of the Machine and Mechanism Division of the Institute of Applied Mechanics, Bucharest. Mr. Gross is Director of Research Laboratories, Ampex Corporation.
This is a reproduction edition from a scanned copy of the following original edition:
