For practical demonstration of the functions and operation of the slide valve, a large sectional model engine, with provision for variation of the operation of its parts, is very valuable; but it seems to the writer to be desirable that each student should have in his own possession a model to cogitate upon, and that his model should give him, graphically, results which should be not merely qualitative, but also, in some degree, quantitative, to enable him to institute comparisons between the actions of different valves operated under varying conditions.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the principles that govern the construction of valves of different types, explaining the meaning of lap, lead, advance, and the effects that alterations to these elements have on valve function. The author demonstrates how both the valve and eccentric can be visualized as cranks so that their actions can be plotted on a circular diagram, allowing for visual comparisons of valve performance under different conditions. The practical applications discussed in this volume will be of interest to engineers and students seeking a foundational understanding of slide valve operation in steam engines.
