as calculated by the expression 60 X 33000 778 (^1 + g, ~ oc^r.^ - g,) deduced on page 141 for the steam-consumption for a non-con-ducting engine withcomplete expansion.This result was ob-tained with cut-off atfour-ninths of thestroke which gave aterminal pressure ofone pound above theatmosphere.… … Fig. INFLUENCE OF THE CYLINDER WALLS 201 To make the diagram clear and compact, the axis of abscissaeis taken at 30 pounds of steam per horse-power per hour. Aninspection of this diagram and of the figures in the table showsa regularity in the results which can be attained only when testsare made…
