Proceedings of the 2003 International Joint Power Generation ...
It is shown that with higher temperature and larger pressure, larger prestressing
of bolt is necessary to guarantee the steamtightness of casing, the operation
experience of real casing shows the numerical analysis can provide usable data
for ...
American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Power Division, 2003
These constructions greatly shorten the length of the - turbine, but have the
disadvantage that steamtightness takes place in the cylindrical face surfaces at .1
(Fig. 212a), therefore the original position of the shaft must be absolutely
maintained.
In nearly all old marine engines, and also in the low-pressure pistons of stage-
expansion engines, the steamtightness is accomplished by means of a metallic
packing -ring of considerable depth, sometimes called the spring-ring, which is
kept ...

A History of the American Locomotive: Its Development, 1830-1880
These bolts were threaded and riveted at both ends for security and
steamtightness. Robert Stephenson used this style of construction on the Rocket
in 1829 and it remained in use well into the twentieth century. Hollow stay bolts
were used by ...
The maintenance of steamtightness of a unafiow piston is a much more diflicult
problem to analyze and solve than with a counterflow engine, because a unafio\v
cylinder, which has the same diameter throughout its length when cold, has a ...
Further, the double-seated cage safeguards against any influence from cylinder
expansion affecting steamtightness. • Maximum port areas • Optimum cylinder
performance • Steamtightness between shoppings • Minimum power loss ...

Giants of Steam: The Great Men and Machines of Rail's Golden Age
'I have never hearda crisper, sharper exhaust,'Cox recalled, 'indicative of a
perfect distribution and steamtightness at the front end.' Mareš's engines needed
to be efficient. Lightlylaid track,coal witha relatively low heatcontent, and heavily ...

Steam Turbines: With an Appendix on Gas Turbines and the ...
If there is leakage at any one place, the escaped steam can perform useful work
in the next division of the turbine. These eonstructions greatly shorten the length
of the ~ turbine, but have the disadvantage that steamtightness takes place in the
...

... and is ordinarily about 1'A Ib. per sq. in., this being sufficient to insure
steamtightness without causing excessive friction. With superheated steam the
piston springs are exposed to temperatures which draw the temper of ordinary
spring steel.

The Journal of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers
So we set out to reduce friction and wear of rods and packings at no sacrifice of
steamtightness~and by solving the problem we have inaugurated at new era in “
StuffingBox Engineering." Johns-Manville Sea Rings are automatic and H. W. ...
