Summary
Details

""The Theories and Practice of Centrifugal Ventilating Machines"" by Daniel Murgue, originally published in 1883, delves into the mechanics and practical applications of centrifugal ventilation systems. This comprehensive treatise covers various aspects including centrifugal force, equivalent orifice, and theoretical depression. Murgue's work provides insights into the performance and design of these machines, essential for industrial and mining environments.

Referencing locations such as Frameries, Grand Hornu, and Cortlandt Street, the book also includes discussions on topics such as 'vis viva, ' 'passive resistances, ' and 'tangential speed'. The work offers a detailed look at the theories underpinning the practical use of centrifugal ventilators, making it a valuable resource for engineers and historians of technology interested in the evolution of ventilation systems.
