Tables of the properties of saturated steam and other vapors . robb:st drummond, electrotyper and PRINTER, NEW YORK* <r. SATURATED STEAM, AND OTHER VAPORS. A comparison of the several tables of the properties of saturated steam,expressed in English units, reveals discrepancies of considerable magnitude;and investigation shows that, while all are in some manner founded on theexperiments of Regnault, various methods of calculation have been used, andin some cases other experimental data have been employed. A review ofthe whole subject, in connection with the preparation of notes on thermo-dynamics for the use of the students of the Massachusetts Institute ofTechnology, made it seem important to calculate a set of tables, to accompanythose notes, founded on the best and most recent data. In presenting the tables for general use, it appears proper to state in fullthe data and the methods of calculation employed, so that each one maysee the degree of accuracy and correctness of the tables, and the relianceto be placed on them. Tables of the properties of other vapors have been added, which will bediscussed h
