Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Design of Valve Gears for Steam Engines It is assumed that the student is already familiar with the arrangement and operation of the simple steam engine having the plain slide valve. The purpose of this first chapter is mainly to review certain definitions, to bring out certain conceptions, and to give the symbols, abbreviations and letters of reference which will be used through the text, so as to ensure a common basis of under standing before proceeding with the development of the subject.

Excerpt: ...volume and diameter Of cylinder, the percentage of volume is less on long stroke engl11eg than on short. Wlith certain types of valve gear, as will be see" later, to prevent excessive compre$si0n large elearance is "acessary. 35. DRAWING HYPERBOLIC EXPANSION LINES. First Method. Start with the X and Y axes, Fig. 38, and using absolute pressures and volumes as co-ordinates, locate the point of cutoff, c, and draw the vertical line cc'. Through any point 1 in the line cp produced, draw Ol from the origin, to intersect ed at 2. Then the vertical and horizontal lines drawn respectively through 1 and 2, intersect at 3, which is a point on the expansion curve. Other points may be found in the same manner. Starting at k, the beginning of compression, draw the vertical line kk'. Through any point, 4, on this line, draw 04 from the origin to intersect the back pressure line kb at 5. Then the horizontal and vertical lines drawn respectively through 4 and 5, intersect at 6, which is a point on the compression line. The pressure at the end of compression _is found by first determining the point of intersection 7 between O0 and kl;/, and then from this point drawing horizontally to intersect the clearance line at 8. Second Method. To construct a hyperbola through the point b, Fig. 39, draw any line through this point to intersect the axes at a and a'. Along this line from a lay off a distance equal to ab, locating the point b', which is a point on the hyperbola. 36. CUSHIONING THE RECIPROCATING PARTS. First suppose there is no compression. Then when the pist011 9-pproaches the end of its stroke the effective steam pressure and the inertia of the reciprocating part are both acting towards that end of the stroke, ...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Valve-Gears for Steam-Engines Graphical methods are used throughout, in the body of the book, both for demonstration of principles and for design of gear. In an appendix analytical demonstrations are given of certain principles that cannot be treated in a complete and satisfactory manner by construction only. Zenner's valve-diagram is used because it is widely and favorably known and appears to the author to be at least as good as any other circular diagram.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Steam Engine Indicators and Valve Gears: A Practical Presentation of Modern Testing, Appliances and Methods Used to Produce, Maximum Efficiency as Applied to the Steam Engine James Watt was responsible for many important developments in connection with the steam engine and one of these was the "Indicator Diagram". By means of this ingenious graph of the engine's action a trained engineer can determine its ailments as surely as a skilled physician can detect the weaknesses of a patient's heart action by the aid of a stethoscope. Every deviation of the curve from the standard form means to this expert a fault either of design or of adjustment. Poor lubrication, late admission of the steam, excessive back pressure, too early cut-off, etc., each makes its impression on the curve, and each trouble in turn can be corrected and proof given that this has been done by noting the improvement in the curve on a new indicator card. In addition to this information, a measurement of the area of the diagram, together with known constants of the engine and indicator, enable one to determine the exact number of horsepower produced by the engine. Another important adjunct of the modern engine is the "Valve Gear," by which the admission of the steam to the cylinder, the cut-off, the expansion, compression, and exhaust are controlled. The proper operation of the valves of an engine is of the highest economic importance and not only must the expert engineer understand the working theory of this control device difference working theory of this control device and understand the differences between a Stephenson, Walschaert, or Reynolds-Corliss, for example, but he must be able to determine whether the valve actions are as perfect as they can be made by proper adjustment. By use of a graphical method called a "Zeuner Diagram," it is possible to determine the proper lap, lead, angle of advance, cut-off, and release, and to correct any errors of adjustment that may exist. All of these important matters in connection with the steam engine are carefully and authoritatively treated in this book in an exceedingly practical way. A number of examples taken from actual operation experiences are carefully worked out as a guide to the proper method of applying both the indicator and Zeuner diagrams.
