Excerpt from Indicator Diagrams and Engine and Boiler Testing

The Indicator and Its Diagrams - is to explain the construction of the different kinds of indicator used, and show their advantages and disadvantages, also to explain clearly the general principles on which the interpretation of indicator diagrams is based.

A large number of defective diagrams are illustrated and described, but the writer hopes that readers will not endeavour to commit to memory the special forms resulting from the various defects, but rather use them as instances of the modes of reasoning applicable to indicator diagrams generally. It might be well to mention here that, except where stated otherwise, the illustrations are exact reproductions to a smaller scale, of diagrams actually taken.
