Peabody, Cecil Hobart, 1855-1934 · New York, Wiley · leaf 266
o a large receiver, the back-pressure in that cylinder andthe pressure during the admission to the large cylinder willbe uniform. If, further, we assume that there is no clearancein either cylinder, that the back-pressure in the small cylinderand the forward pressure in the large cylinder are the… … v^k- Fig. 56. Fig. 57. for the large cylinder DCFG. The volume in the largecylinder at cut-off is equal to the total volume of the smallcylinder, since the large cylinder takes from the receiver thesame weight of steam that is exhausted by the small cylinder,and, in this case, at the same pressure.…
