During my 50+ years as a practicing Professional Engineer I have presented technical papers at various conferences and in technical publications. Many of these venues have been long since forgotten and most of these papers are no longer retrievable. In my opinion, some of these papers are worthy of preservation, as they have contributed to the advancement of the engineering of balance-of-plant mechanical systems in electric power plants. To remedy this situation, I offer this book containing my older papers. More recently (since about 2012) I have had my papers published by the ASME which required me to surrender copyright, so I cannot include them in this book. However, Appendix A contains a list of those papers which should be available from the ASME in perpetuity.

    After World War II, electric power consumption in the United States increased at a rate of approximately 7% per year. To meet this demand, the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) launched an ambitious program of constructing 17 large nuclear power stations, beginning with the Browns Ferry Nuclear Plant in 1966. The portion of the nuclear plants outside of the nuclear steam suppl...

  • Biblical History of the New Testament
    Charles Bowman
    Critics of the New Testament assert that the four gospel accounts contain contradictions in facts. Apologists reply that one or more of the gospels were not written in chronological order. Neither is true. The Scriptures are inerrant, and as historical documents, each gospel account should be presumed to have been written as a chronological narrative as are most historical work...
