What reading level is Power And Power Transmission book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
342 PUMPS, GAS-ENGINES, WATER-POWER, ETC. The air contained in the cylinder is first compressed in the cool top part, the pistons approaching each other. This compression causes the cool air to pass by the trans- fer-piston to the bottom of the cylinder, where it is heated and immediately expands, driving the power-piston upward ; the fly-wheel carries the motion to where the expansion by the heat gives the piston another impulse. It is, plainly, single-acting. An attachment may be used which w...ill burn wood or other solid fuel instead of gas. This engine is only used where small quantities of power are required, the running of small pumps being its principal application. It is especially suited to pumping because of its compara- tively low speed. The low speed is due to the fact that it takes some time for the heat to impart its expansive effect to the body of air. The same air is used continuously, and is cooled, compressed, heated, and expanded in the regular order with little noise.
