Vi or V2: the length of thisradius represents the uniform relative velocity assumed to exist alongthe channel, while successive angular positions show the direction ofthat velocity at the successive numbered points along the curve inFig. 323. After putting in Vi and 72 and dividing the arc C8, we… … Fig. 323. — Plotting the Path of theSteam Current. 452 ACTION OF THE STEAM IN THE TURBINE. [Chap. IX. the steam velocities are laid out as parallel ordinates. The kineticenergy of an element of the current varies as the square of this ordinate,and thus can be seen how the initial energy is…
