Aubuisson and Koch, prove that the vari-ous phenomena of contraction in the^fluid vein observed inthe flow of water are equally true for gases, the formulae ofdischarge however have slightly different coefficients ofefflux. The character of the discharge will evidently varywith the extent of… … which takes place in the filaments of the steam vein withthe common slide valve. If the edge were formed as inFig. 2 the discharge would be much improved and ren-dered similar to that which occurs through an ordinary mouth piece. The curvature of the valve edge should commence far AEEA OF STEAM…
