tandards [Vol. 7, No. 4 position of the state point. In any adiabatic expansion whatever,the difference of ordinate of the initial and final points gives us, atonce, the heat drop and therefore, by equation (5), the mechanicalenergy developed. We have now to mention some of the geometrical… … heat. An exact plot will not be attempted because it is easilyavailable in the above-mentioned tables of Marks and Davis aswell as in other books to which it may be presumed that thereader has access. Vertical lines are isentropics, and horizontal lines are lines ofconstant total heat or throttling…
