s with one weight of steam only, it is convenient totake the volumes from the tables for one pound, sin:e it is easyto change the scale to give the volumes for any other weight.In the quadrant TOE, ordinates represent absolute temperatureand abscissas represent entropy; in the quadrant VOE. the… … Fig. 121. the entropy is found by dropping the perpendicular t3e3. Simi-larly, dropping a perpendicular s3e± from s3 and laying off on theprolongation e4T3 equal to the volume of one pound weight ofsteam at temperature t3 (in accordance with the scale laid off onOV), we obtain the point Y3.
