In common with all the present two-cycle Carels designs,valves are utilized for scavenging, fitted in the cylindercover, two or four being adopted. Figs. 66 to 71 show the most recent type of Carels two-cycle engines, the main modification being in the air com-pressors. Air Compressors for Diesel Engines.—The air com-pressors for the supply of injection air and for startingpurposes, are very important features of the Diesel engines,and as the power absorbed by them is practically a dead lossfrom a commercial standpoint, a large amount of care has beenbes
