In the book Steam Technology the emphasis is laid on elementary steam theory and the book focuses in detail on the various kinds of steam, steam tables and frequently used diagrams. Moreover the book Steam Technology deals with the subject of preheaters, degassers, quality of steam and condensate pots.
The book Steam Technology pays much attention to calculations of steam in connection with heat exchangers, but also to systems, heat transfer calculations, efficiency and more in particular to efficiency improvement.
On users request the book Steam Technolog’ was expanded in 2010 with gauge-glasse errors and a number of extra diagrams.
