THES‘S 0 b j e c t s. The objects of this test were to determine the relative efficiency and the relative regulaticn c? the Throttling ani of the Hit and Miss types of governing when applied to the same engine. in --—. p a r a t u s. Engine . A e H.P. (5 1/2" x 7 1/2") engine of the horizon- tal type made by the Olds Gas tower Ccmpany of Lansing was used. This engine as built for Hit and Miss governing is equipped with two 203 lb, fly wheels 32" in diameter, while for Throttling governing 550 lb. fly wheels of equal diameter are fitted to the same crank shaft. The engine as used through— out these tests was fitted with the latter. The 011 crank shaft was somewhat light for the heaVy wheels as evidenced by the vibrations but Dc trouble was experienced from this source. The engine was built to run at 425 R.D,M. However, the effi- ciency curve of the generator used as a power absorber was plotted at 125 volts and, with the pulleys at hand, it was necessary to run the engine at 475 R.D.M. in order to bring the generator up to normal vcltage. The ionition was of the 0" jump spark type. Fuel was supplied to the Cylinder with a 284815 tip discharging into a reservoir in which a constant level was maintained by means of an overflow leading back to the supply tank. The gasoline was piped from this reservoir directly to the needle valve at the base of the carbureter. Jacket water was supplied from the main. Either type of gov- ernor was easily applied to this engine. Both were of the centrifugal single weight type mounted on fly wheel. The ball on the Throttling governor was about three times the weight of that on the Hit and Miss. A separate type of car— bureter was used with each governor. For sketch see Dlate 3111. Switch board. The voltmeter and the amneter were both of the Weston switch board type. The limit of the voltmeter was 150 volts while that of the amneter was 250 amperes. As no cur- rents exceeding 50 am,eres were used the range of the instru— ment was much greater than desirable. A shunt field rheostat was used for voltage control. The switch board was connected to a bank of about one hundred 16 c.p. 110 volt incandescent lamps which constituted the load. Generator. The generator used for load was a Crocker—Wheeler four—pole, compound wound, direct current 9 K.W. machine de- signed to give 125 volts at 950 R.D.M The diameter of the pulley was 16". For efficiency and B.H.v. curves see plate 11; Reduc ing Mot io n. A reducing motion of common type was used. A 3/8" steel rod was screwed into the piston and locked with a jam nut. This rod was led out parallel with the axis of the cylinder and bent to meet the horizontal link which in turn was pivoted to the vertical link. The last was pivoted to the engine base. Due to the high speed and the reduction of area by threading, the lead rod, after the engine had run a short time, whipped off at the point where it entered the Piston. To remedy this a new rod was made by welding about 2 1/2" of 5/8" wrought iron rod to a 7/16" wrought iron rod and leading the latter to the link as before. This arrangement was rigid and proved very satisfactory. Indicator. A Thompson indicator was used with piston area of 1/4 square inch, making the 100% spring with piston area of 1/2 square inch equivalent to 200#. -The connection to cylin- der was made by a short pipe through back of combustion cham— ber about 3/8 of an inch above the spark plug (See Dlate 1111). This arrangement allowed the spark to Jump from spark plug to indicator pipe which was remedied by placing a glass tubing over the spark plug. The object of running pipe into cylinder at this point was to avoid going through the jacket, although the latter would be advisable to avoid trouble with spark plug. Tachometer. A tachometer was used direct connected to engine with a flexible spring coupling consisting of a small gener- ator so designed as to give voltage in direct proportion to speed, a milli—ammeter for reading the speed directly within 1 R.P.M., and a resistance which was previously determined. The tachometer showed variations on different loads very plain- ly, and during each cycle, although not the precise variation because of inertia of the needle. Speed Indicator. As a check for the tachometer and in order to determine the belt slippage, speeds were taken simultaneously from the engine and the generator with Starrettspeed indicators. ther Tank. A cylindrical sheet iron tank was used for determin- ation of the anount of jacket water used. This tank had an outlet at the bottom and an overflow near the top. The tank Was calibrated and contained 218#ibetween.overflow and outlet. Calibration of Instrument. The voltmeter was calibrated by the potentionmeter method and the ammeter by direct comparison with a standard instrument. For calibration curves of both instruments see plate I. The indicator spring used was calibrated cold on a test pump since there was not a sufficiently high pressure at hand to calibrate it not. The spring was frund to be slightly stiff but, as a spring is weakened 2 to 3% by heating, this error was practically compensated. ~6- Q n “.7 t e r L o a d. -’ T h r o t t 1 i n g G o v e r n.o r. witch board Jacket water Gasoline Revolutions #_ , Ziggg- M Engine \ \ \ \s 1% k k W W «3% \ K t \k \Q {@ng E“ §Vi§\\¥ *4 \i‘gtwafil‘k ‘1' t2§t§tks§59Suwir R 5 xsstflqs \4 s unseat 9-55 126 2.8 i 5 52 150 55 51.25465 .88 9-43 126 2.8 6 52 156 56 470 466 925 54 5.66 .88 9—55 125 2.8 4 52 154 59 465 465 922 22 2.50.875 10-05 125 2.8 6 52 154 so 465 479 926i64 6.76.875 10-15 125 2.8 6 55 148’ 65 E479 467 921 72 7.54.873 10-25 126 2.8 8 55 156 65 470 467 954 58 .98.88 10-35 '126 2.8 10 55 149$ 66 465 466 952 55.5 .81.88 10-45 126 2.8 6 55 150 218 68 465 461 929 65.5 .8 .873 10-55 125 2.8 8 55 152 69 .465 468 F32 66 6335?.873 11-03 125 2,8 1 55 147 70 465 467 952 65 6.8 .875 11-17 125 2,8 55 147 115 71 25.2.4465 €62.56.53.873 1 Averasggtgls 6.5 55 151 551 64 6.00 #36. {33953-5 5'92} in ‘- Average belt slip .332 -7...

The engine was new, having just been erected, and had never been worked out on the stand. This fact explains the high frictional horse power and conse- quent low mechanical efficiency of the early runs (See Plate V11) which respectively deminished and increased as the test progressed. 0n the preliminary run the engine was set to ignite at 30° before dead center. Even at this point, however, the cards showed late ignition. The spark was then set at 36° and the cards showed the ignition to be normal. The effect of the temperature of cooling water was partially shown by the following experiment: The engine was overloaded with the jacket water at about 212° F. The mixture was so proportioned as to cause the engine to miss fire about five times per minute. The jacket water was then gradually cooled. At about 100° F. the engine was exploding every cycle and the speed decreased until, fin— ally, with the temperature at 55° the-engine stopped. Since the mixture remained constant, this gradual decrease in the power developed by the engine was without doubt largely due to a decrease in the efficiency of combustion with the lower- ing of the temperatures, but the final stopping of the engine may have been partly due to the tightening of the piston with -19- the contraction of the cylinder. The maximum power that could be obtained from the engine while running Throttling was 7 1/2 H.D. but when run~ hing on Hit and Miss governing 8 1/2 5.9. was developed with no difficulty other than a slight drop in speed.
