Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Steam Consumption of Locomotive Engines From the Indicator Diagrams The use of steam for auxiliaries such as the air pump, the train heating system, blower, electric train - lighting sets, and also the loss of steam or water through the safety valves, blow - off valves, and boiler leaks render impossible the determination of the actual steam consumed per unit of power developed by the engines, since from to possibly 15% or 20% of the steam generated is used by the auxiliaries, or is lost. It is thus practically impossible under ordinary conditions to measure the actual steam consumption of the engines.

This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on the Steam Engine Indicator and Indicator Diagrams: With Notes on Steam Engine Performances, the Expansion of Steam, Behaviour of Steam in Steam Engine Cylinders, and on Gas Engine Diagrams The intention of the writer of this book has been to place in the hands of students and practical men a concise guide to the objects, construction and use of the Indicator, and to the interpretation of Indicator Dia grams. Care has been used to avoid lengthy discussion of theoretical or hypothetical matters which, although of great scientific importance, do not immediately con cern those whose desire is to understand the practical employment of the Indicator. As used by those interested in any way with the working of steam and other motors. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indicator Diagrams: A Treatise on the Use of the Indicator and Its Application to the Steam EngineThe usefulness of the Indicator as a steam engine analyser is now universally acknowledged, and the engineer who has to either make or use an engine must feel at a disadvantage if he has not some knowledge of how to analyse its working by means of this instrument.The complete story, as written by the Indicator pencil, ofttimes can only be interpreted by the assistance of much experience, together with clear ideas as to the capacity of the instrument to record the truth. In the following pages the author has endeavoured to give the result of a certain amount of experience as well as to indicate in what direction to look for those irregularities commonly found under ordinary conditions of use.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pray's Steam Tables and Engine Constants: For Facilitating All Calculations Upon Indicator Diagrams, or Various Problems Connected With the Operation of the Steam Engine, From Reliable Data and With Precision The density of steam is correctly given in this volume, taking Prof. Rankine as reliable, and no one today has the abstract facts on that property of saturated steam to any greater certainty than he had, and up to date no one has given facts to consider in place of his reasoning, nor with any approximate basis beyond their own conception of what might be. The tables here given will, to some extent, increase the amount of steam used in any place, but it is correct from present knowledge, and with Regnault's observations and results, and Rankine's verifications of those same results, we must be put in possession of far more accurate data, than the suppositions of theorists, before we attempt to alter the Rankine basis, for saturated steam, for the simple, but indisputable reason that his basis was entirely from Regnault's actual experiments, in using steam, under practically the same conditions that steam engines use it in practical work, while the density is assumed to a great degree in any case, the basis herein adopted is assumed only so far as the higher pressures are given, it is almost positively known for some of the lower range.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indicator Practice and Steam-Engine Economy: With Plain Directions for Attaching the Indicator; Taking Diagrams; Computing the Horsepower; Drawing the Theoretical Curve, Calculating Steam Consumption; Determining Economy, Locating Derangement Ok Valves, and Making All Desired Deductions; Also Tables During the past two years I have written several short articles for the American Machinist on the subject of the indicator-diagram. In these there was not much attempt at connection, or intention to cover more than a few points as they came up from time to time. As an outcome of the appearance of these articles I have received many letters of inquiry, especially from engineers in charge of steam engines and boilers of various classes. These letters, very frequently leading to considerable correspondence, have largely guided me in the preparation of this work: it seemed a fair presumption that they indicated what would be acceptable to others similarly situated. It has been my aim to present the subject comprehensively enough to enable any engineer to apply the indicator to his engine, take the diagram, and make all necessary calculations from it. The endeavor has been to use no terms except such as are generally understood or fully explained, and no mathematical demonstrations are given or are required that involve the use of anything but simple arithmetical calculations.
