These two comparisons show that for this engine under thegiven circumstances the cut-off on the large cylinder shouldbe at a little less than half-stroke instead of at about quarter-stroke, and that a small drop at the end of the stroke of… … LARGE CYLINDER. Scale,4:0 lbs. = 1 inch. Fig. 6i. stroke, and there was a drop of about I5|- pounds from thefinal pressure in the small cylinder to the initial pressure in thelarge cylinder. Compared with Experiment F, the consump-tions are in the ratio 23400 : 2050^in favor of the Experiment F.…
