This condition corresponds to the spurtsthat can be made by a steam locomotive when working above thesteaming capacity of the boilers. The distance from the line O D Lto that portion of the line ADS above O D L in Fig. 4 represents,at any given speed, the proportionate amount of energy which mustcome from the tanks, and be supplied through cylinder S C, and thedisiance from D L to C R represents the total energy given to the•car by the combined action of the electricmotor and the stator cylinder when oper-ating under these conditions. The energy delivered to the car can bestill farther increased by admitting air intorotor cylinder R C, and allowing it to workas an engine. 5. RETARDATION.
