nd the temperature at 90 pounds absolute,namely, 320° F., and on a line with that temperature as an ordi-nate we may interpolate between the lines for constant values of X. Other points canbe drawn in a like man-ner, and the curve eg canbe sketched in; showingthat the steam continuesto yield heat… … Fig. 53. The same feature is exhibited inadiabatic line xdn from the point of cut-off.located by multiplying the length ae, which represents the volumeof steam in the cylinder when dry by the value of x after adia-batic expansion from the point of cut-off n. This point n isreadily included in the…
