Peabody, Cecil H. (Cecil Hobart), 1855-1934 · New York, J. Wiley & sons; [etc., etc.] · leaf 526
velocity of the vanes; then V^ is the relativevelocity of the steam entering the vanes. V^ is the relative exitvelocity which is greater than V^ on account of the change ofheat into work. F4 is the absolute exit velocity from the vaneswith which the steam enters the next set of guides. If the… … Fir.. 116. guides. Consequently to construct F3 we may lay off c^ equalto ac and ed equal to cb. Now a and 7 are commonly made equal,and therefore the triangles abc and cde are equal. Consequentlythe angle 5 for the entrance to the guides is equal to /? at theentrance to the vanes. In fact the…
