untilthe low-pressure steam port opens at h. Here the volume of thesteam = gh. At m the high-pressure exhaust port is closed, andcompression begins. At half-stroke of the low-pressure piston,namely at r, cut-off takes place, and the steam finally expands tovolume St. 142 STEAM-ENGINE THEORY AND… … N0lifnOA3a 3N0 cranks at right angles, the theoretical indicator diagram of the high-pressure cylinder being drawn below the high-pressure piston curve,and the low-pressure indicator diagram below the low-pressure curve.
