Triple Expansion Steam Engine Animation

Tijdsduur / Time : 1 minute and 35 seconds.

Geüpload door paulie1982 op 18 jun 2012

An animation of a double acting steam engine. The double acting steam engine has two power strokes per cycle. Steam is admitted to the cylinder by means of a sliding piston valve. This is out of phase with the displacer piston by 90 degrees - this ensures the correct timing of the steam entering into the cylinder. This animation of a double acting steam engine also shows the tubes and supply network of the steam, from the boiler and eventually back to the boiler.
