eoretic discussion of his engine, stipulates that the rateof combustion shall be so regulated that the temperature shallnot rise during the injection of fuel, and that the line cd shalltherefore be very nearly an isothermal for a perfect gas.

On the other hand, it is not probable that in practicethe rate of injection of fuel will be regulated so as to give no THE DIESEL MOTOR 343 rise of temperature, or that there is any great advantage in sucha regulation…
