Not illustrated. 1896 Excerpt: ...allows the fresh gas to come into contact with the heated sides of the tube when a certain degree of compression has been attained; but no one had thought of applying this principle to obtain a singlecycle motor with only one cylinder. The process in working is as follows: Suppose the motor to be at the period of explosion and the piston thrust forward; the gas expands during the first part of the stroke till the piston arrives at a certain point in its travel, when the pressure of the gas inside the cylinder falls below atmospheric pressure. From that moment a fresh supply of gas is drawn through the valve S till the piston is at the end of its stroke. On the return stroke the gas is compressed and raises the exhaust valves S', which allow a certain amount of burnt gas to escape. The fresh gas had not arrived so far as S'. Compression will continue when the piston has passed the exhaust valves, but the gas remaining in the cylinder can no longer escape, and the degree of compression at the end of the stroke will be sufficient to cause the explosion of the fresh gas-Arrangement of Loyal Motor. in the upper part of the cylinder. The cycle is then repeated in the above order. We said that all the burnt gas was not expelled; this is perhaps one of the causes which prevents the motor from heating, although nothing is done to cool it. To make matters more clear, let Q be the heat evolved per explosion, v, the volume of fresh gas, and r2 that of burnt gas. If the latter had been expelled the temperature of the gas at the time of explosion would have risen to T-Q 11 c being an experimental coefficient practically proportional to the specific heat of the gaseous mixture. In the case of a volume r2 of neutral gas the temperature would become T _ Q c (r, + rj) and it...
