eccentric (unless modified by lever-arms), viz., 2SP—AB. 85 86 THE STEAM-ENGINE AND OTHER HEAT-MOTORS. Piston Travel with a Finite Connecting-rod (Fig. 55).Let R=OD = crank throw; L=Dd = connecting-rod length;ab = travel of cross-head;then with centers a and d, draw the arcs CAC and Dg, using… … Fig. 55. Drop the perpendicular Df; then, from the figure, we seethat the piston travel for a finite connecting-rod is equal to fg + fA =L-L cos a+R-R cos 6 =L(1 -cos a) +#(1 -cos 6). Piston Travel with an Infinite Connecting-rod.—As the cen-ter d, Fig. 55, is moved to the left by the use of longer…
