Excerpt from Practice and Theory of the Injector

Although much has been written concerning the theory and the action of the Injector, there have been few books published since the appearance of Giffard's own pamphlet in 1860, which have been based directly upon experimental research.

It has been the object in the following pages to present solutions of some of the more interesting problems, with illustrations drawn from practical tests and to describe in detail the function of the different parts. To the professional engineer and to the student, theoretical discussion of the Injector is a tempting field, because of the beauty of its underlying principle and by reason of the numerous associated problems of fluid motion; the analysis of this part of the subject, based upon carefully conducted laboratory tests, has been fully treated, and complex formul? have been avoided in the mathematical discussion.
