Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 1st Edition. The covers have a touch of edge wear. In this book James Rizzo describes in detail the two earliest surviving hot air engines, and how to build working replicas, or reduced sized models of them. The two engines concerned are those which Robert Stirling presented to the University of Edinburgh, and slightly later, to the University of Glasgow, to demonstrate his 'Air Engine'. The exact dates these were built is not known, but were certainly before 1825. The Edinburgh model is the more original, as the Glasgow model was discovered in an old store by Prof. William Thomson, later Lord Kelvin, in 1847. He dismantled it to see how it worked, and restored it to working order, along the way establishing the Absolute Scale of Temperature, the term "energy" and invented the name of a new science - Thermodynamics. Both models are now very fragile, but James was granted unprecedented access to measure and inspect them by both Universities. From the resulting drawings James made half-size models of both engines, but whilst the building instructions here refer to these models, the drawings are dimensioned full size, with metric and decimal inch measurements for accurate conversion. Hardwoods were used considerably in the original engines, but other than possibly for the flywheel (12 inch diameter in the original), no castings are required. Whilst they may look similar, there are considerable differences between the two prototypes, so that making replicas or models of both is far from an exercise in repetition. This book is an important historic record of two unique survivors from the very early days of mechanisation, and a tremendous 'projects' book, providing the model engineer with full drawings and building instructions to build replicas, or models of both these fascinating engines. 100 page, high quality paperback, full of drawings and photographs of all parts of the engines. Size: 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. Book.

Stirling Engine Manual (Camden Miniature Steam Services) A4 sized hardback book, green coloured binding, gilt titles to both the front board and spine. As its a used book, normal wear, marks and tear apply consistent with use and age. This wonderful book is in good condition, small indentation to front board, just to the left of the titles near spine, please see photos, otherwise this book looks like its hardly been used or read. 183 pages all intact and in good, clean, readable order. Published in 1995, Originally parts of the book were published or appeared in "Modelling Stirling and Hot Air Engines" by James G. Rizzo published by Patrick Stephens Limited in 1985. Layout and Design by Andrew Luckhurst, Bath, Somerset, Printed and Bound by Biddles Limited, Guilford and Kings Lynn. The "Stirling-Cycle Engine" also known as the "STIRLING ENGINE" is the generic name given to a group of prime movers commonly known as "hot air engines" Stirling Engines work on a "closed cycle" system where the working medium, that is air, hydrogen or helium, is used over and over again. "Closed Cycle" and "Open Cycle" hot air engines are extremely heated to raise temperature of the working medium to provide the required degree of volumetric expansion in order to provide force. These engines are therefore also known as "External Combustion" engines. ("Open-cycle" hot air engines have fresh working medium induced during each cycle by means of valves). A truly fascinating read, ideal for all engine enthusiasts.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Hyperspectral Data Compression provides a survey of recent results in the field of compression of remote sensed 3D data, with a particular interest in hyperspectral imagery.Chapter 1 addresses compression architecture, and reviews and compares compression methods. Chapters 2 through 4 focus on lossless compression (where the decompressed image must be bit for bit identical to the original).Chapter 5, contributed by the editors, describes a lossless algorithm based on vector quantization with extensions to near lossless and possibly lossy compression for efficient browning and pure pixel classification.Chapter 6 deals with near lossless compression while. Chapter 7 considers lossy techniques constrained by almost perfect classification. Chapters 8 through 12 address lossy compression of hyperspectral imagery, where there is a tradeoff between compression achieved and the quality of the decompressed image.Chapter 13 examines artifacts that can arise from lossy compression.
