Not illustrated. 1903 Excerpt: ...for the weight of one cubic foot of water at the observed pressure. If possible, the gauge glass for this test should be attached close to the boiler. If there is opiortunity for much condensation to occur and collect in the steam pipe during the leakage test, the quantity should be determined as closely as desirable, and properly allowed for. In making a test of an engine where the steam consumption is determined from the amount of water discharged from the surface condenser, leakage of the piston rods and valve rods should be guarded against; for if these are excessive, the test is of little use, as the leakage consists partly of steam that has already done work in the cylinder and of water condensed from the steam when in. contact with the cylinder. If such leakage cannot be prevented, some allowance ebould be made for the quantity thus lost. The weight of water as shown at the condenser must be increased by the quantity allowed for this leakage. VII. Duration Of Test.--The duration of a test should depend largely upon its character and the objects in view. The standard heat test of an engine, and, likewise, a test for the simple determination of the feed-water consumption, should be continii3l for at least five hours, unless the class of service preeludes a continuous run of so long duration. It is desirable to prolong the test the number of hours stated to obtain a number of consecutive hourly records as a guide in analyzing the reliability of the whole. Where the water discharged from the surface condenser is measured for successive short intervals of time, and the rate is found to be uniform, the test may be of a much shorter duration than where the feed water is measured to the boiler. The longer the test with a given set of conditions, the more acc...
