What reading level is The Gas Engine book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Digitized by Google 174 ^^^ (^^^ Engine It has been already proved that in this type of engine, ex- panding after compression and explosion to the same volume as existed before compression, the theoretic efficiency is independent of the temperature of the explosion or the temperature existmg before compression, and depends only upon the volume before and after complete compression. As the ratio of compression space to volume swept by the piston is o*6 to i, the volume before compression is i '6..., volume after compression o*6.

That is, if all the heat were given to the engine at the moment of complete explosion at the beginning of the stroke, and no heat were lost to the cylinder during the expansion to the original volume, then 33 per cent, of that heat would be converted into indicated work. But the author's explosion experiments give the factor necessary for correcting this theoretical number (p.
