In thisdiagram the curved line AG represents the curved… … Fig. 167. the velocity of the steam with respect to the surface of the vane.That is, instead of the entire velocity of the steam AE beingeffective in creating pressure against the vane, there is only thevelocity AF to produce this pressure.
