Synopsis
Excerpt from The Effect of Improper Valve Setting on the Economy of a Simple Corliss Engine
The valves in the connection between the high and low pressure cylinders were so set that the exhaust steam passed directly into the exhaust line without entering the receiver or low pressure cylinder.
The Wheeler Surface Condenser, having 485 sq. Ft. Of cooling surface, and its Knowles patent wet air pump, were used for condensing the steam and discharging the condensation to the weighing tanks.
Two weighing tanks, each located on scales, were used for the determination of the amount of steam required by the engine.
