therms i6o THE THERMODYNAMICS OF HEAT-ENGINES are under constant pressure instead of under constant vol-ume. The cycle is that portrayed in Figs. 29 and 30. Theintake of fresh cold air into the smaller compressing cyl-inder is shown at a A, Fig. 30, and does not appear inFig. 29. It is then… … FlG. 29 pears as the volume bC, Fig. 30, having in the interim beenheated along the constant-pressure isomorph BC of Fig. 29.At C the working-cylinder experiences a cut-off of supplyexactly as in the steam-engine, after which isothermal ex-pansion takes place in contact with the fire-surface…
