To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At present locomotives are more usually made with a single nozzle, through which the steam from both cylinders escapes, the diameters of these nozzles being about as shown in the following table, in which also their areas are compared with the combined areas of the two pistons and of the two ports. Of course a given area of nozzle arranged in this way gives less resistance than the same area in two sepa- rate nozzles, as the puff at release alternates between the cylinders; but making all allow...ance for this, it will be seen that the resistance of the nozzle must be far in excess of that of the port. i8o SLIDE VALVE GEARS.
