To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
An interesting result of the test is found in the fact that the ther- mometer in the saddle at C indicated a temperature 7.5® lower than the temperature in the T head at A, and 16.3° lower than the presum- able temperature at the lower end of the steam-pipe at Z), so that, from the T head to the cylinder the steam does not gain, but actually loses heat. This effect is to be accounted for in the fact that the mean temperature within the cylinders is much lower than the temperature of the incomin...g steam, and that this, combined with the effect of radia- tion from the saddle, operates to lower the temperature of the iron which surroimds the steam in its course through the saddle. It is cer- tainly clear that the heat given the steam by the smoke-box is soon taken away again by the saddle, but how much of this cooling effect of the saddle is due to radiation is not shown. Experience with station- ary engines which have no saddles, however, forbids our charging it all to radiation. IV. THE ENGINES.
