Excerpt from District Heating: A Brief Exposition of the Development of District Heating and Its Position Among Public Utilities
The preparation of this work was prompted by the hope that it might call attention to certain phases of District Heating which have not been extensively discussed by other writers. It has been the endeavor of the authors to take up in a brief manner the development of the art of District Heating, as far as possible, from a non-technical standpoint, in order that those who have not had experience with this subject might obtain a general knowledge of District Heating and its relation to other public utilities. As a rule the discussion of the more involved technical points has been avoided, the reader being referred to standard text-books and other engineering literature which take up these subjects in detail.
