Bilgram's valve diagram a graphical method to design a steam valve
derekwarner:
Thanks Dan...I understand the geometry OK , but will be interested as to where some of the missing values are resultants of what? :Doh:

crueby:
Also once you get farther along, can these diagrams predict what effects notching in the Stevenson link does?
Dan Rowe:
Derek, I am scratching my head as to what you are asking. If you mean missing values for the Ripper launch engine they can all be found in the book. If you are talking about the Sabino the plan is to work the whole valve solution using the Ripper book as an example.

Derek, wow that is NOT the book I was talking about. :happyreader:
This is the one and the link should open to the Zeuner diagram for the engine.

Unfortunately, some vandal Ripped off the color plates of the engine which are the real gem of a very fine book on the art of drafting. (and I DO mean art)
Here is a link to ART prints of the work that shows even more views of the Ripper launch engine.
