Support new work on Early Engines

26th February 2016 /

A crucial aim of the International Early Engines Conference is to provide a platform for the significant amount of research into the early development of heat engines which powered us into the modern industrial era. Les Turnbull’s new work on William Brown is a perfect example of this rich seam of new material.

Les will be presenting aspects of his research in a lecture at Neville Hall Newcastle at 11am, on Wednesday 2nd March 2016:

Lecture by Les Turnbull at the North of England Institution of Mining and Mechanical Engineers, supported by the Institution of Mechanical Engineers North Eastern Region
