The Relative Proportions of the Steam Engine: A Course of Lectures is a book written by William Dennis Marks and originally published in 1878. The book is a comprehensive guide to the design and construction of steam engines, with a focus on the importance of proportionality in achieving optimal performance. Marks provides a detailed analysis of the various components of a steam engine, including the boiler, cylinder, piston, and valve gear, and explains how each component should be sized and positioned relative to the others to ensure maximum efficiency. The book is intended for engineers and mechanics who are involved in the design, construction, and maintenance of steam engines, as well as students of mechanical engineering who are interested in learning more about this important technology. Overall, The Relative Proportions of the Steam Engine is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to understand the principles of steam engine design and operation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
