Synopsis
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.
