Practical Gyrostatic Balancing, written by Herbert Chatley in 1912, is a comprehensive guide to the principles and applications of gyroscopic balancing. The book covers the theoretical foundations of gyroscopic motion, including the properties of rotating bodies and the laws of motion. It also provides practical guidance on how to balance rotating machinery, such as turbines, propellers, and engines, using gyroscopic techniques.The book begins with an introduction to the basic principles of gyroscopic motion, including the concept of angular momentum and the gyroscopic effect. It then goes on to describe the various types of gyroscopes and their applications in balancing machinery. The author explains how to calculate the necessary parameters for balancing a rotating body, such as the mass, the moment of inertia, and the angular velocity.The book also provides detailed instructions on how to use gyroscopes to balance different types of machinery, including marine engines, steam turbines, and airplane propellers. It includes numerous diagrams and illustrations to help readers understand the concepts and techniques involved in gyroscopic balancing.Overall, Practical Gyrostatic Balancing is a valuable resource for engineers, mechanics, and anyone involved in the design, construction, or maintenance of rotating machinery. It provides a thorough understanding of the principles of gyroscopic motion and practical guidance on how to apply these principles to balance machinery for optimal performance and safety.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
