ies of double admissionto the low-pressure cylinder, as is shown in Fig. 63. Forsake of simplicity the release, and also the admission for eachcylinder, is assumed to be at the end of the stroke. If therelease is early the double admission occurs before half-stroke.The admission and expansion of… … Fig. 03. There is a drop at cd and a corresponding rise of pressure mnon the large piston, which is then at half-stroke; it will beassumed that the pressures at d and at n are identical. Fromd to e the steam is transferred from the small to the largecylinder, and the pressure falls because the…
