In the case of fig. 130 this result is attained by keeping the throw and angle of advance of the eccentric represented by CE as before, and by altering the angle and throw of the o. Ther eccentric to such an extent that the diameter CG of the resul...tant circle coincides with the direction of the line CF. It may here be noticed that in designing a Meyer valve gear it is unnecessary to give the length AC =//, fig. 129, a greater value than CG, the diameter of the resultant valve circle, for by so doing we merely admit of the possibility of the expansion valve being absolutely useless under certain conditions. This would be the case in fig. 129, for instance, whenever u had a less value than A/* 4 . Reversing by Meyer's valve gear. If the engine to which Meyer's valve gear is applied is expected to be able to run backwards as well as forwards, the choice of the angle of advance of the expansion valve eccentric will require a good The Steam Engine.
