Not illustrated. 1908 Excerpt: ...have become thoroughly warmed. Then pass the pencil against the paper long enough to take the diagram. Some engineers allow the pencil to remain in contact with the paper during but one revolution of the engine; others trace the diagram two or more times. After the diagram is taken the cock is shut and without unhooking the cord the pencil is again pressed to the paper to take the atmospheric line. The cord is then disconnected and the card removed from the drum. The scale of spring, the dimensions and speed of the engine, the date, and all useful particulars are written on the cards.. If one indicator is used for hoth ends the three way cock shown in Fig. 12 is opened to admit steam from one end, the diagram taken; then opened for the other end and that diagram taken. Then the steam is shut off from hoth ends and the atmospheric line taken. As has been said before, the indicator is of great importance to the engineer. It is used to find the indicated horse-power of the engine, and by comparison of the indicated horee-power with the brake horse-power, the mechanical efficiency is obtained. The indicator card shows several other things; the time and manner of the four events of the stroke, namely, the admission, cut-off, release, and compression. These four events make up what is called the steam distribution. It shows faults in the setting and working of the valves. We have seen how' the indicator diagram represents the net work done on the piston in one stroke. Work is equal to pressure multiplied by the distance through which it acts. The distance is the length of stroke multiplied by the number of strokes per minute. The pressure is the average net pressure acting on the piston during the stroke. This average net pressure is called the mean effective pre...
