To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And further, since the clearance of LOW-PRESSURE CUT-OFF 161 the high- and the low-pressure cylinders are different there can be no real equivalent expansion. If the ratio of the cylinders is R and the cut-off of the high- pressure cylinder is at i of the stroke, then the total expansion is represented by fi = eR and I-J+A e This last equation is useful in determining approximately the cut-off of the high-pressure cylinder. For example, if the initial pressure is ioo pounds absolute and the ter...minal pressure is to be 10 pounds absolute, then the total expansions will be about 10. If the ratio of the cylinders is 3$, then the high- pressure cut-off will be about ~ e = 3i ■*■ 10 = 0.35 of the stroke. Low-pressure Cut-off. — The cut-off of the low-pressure cylinders in Figs. 36 and 37 is controlled by the ratio of the cylinders, since the volumes in the low-pressure cylinder at cut- off is in each case made equal to the high-pressure piston dis- placement; this is done to avoid a drop.
