The head end and crank end have beenaveraged together although at times they are worked up sepa-rately the weight of steam being divided between the two endsin proportion to the total volume at the point of cut-off althoughthere is no true foundation for this method. Another methodof division may be used as shown by Clayton. See page 210. The first point to compute in Hirns analysis is the weight ofclearance steam per card, M0. At the point 4 steam is assumedto be dry. This has been indicated by experiments as far asthey have been tried although these experiments were difficult THE STEAM ENGINE 185 to perform and are not so reliable as would be desired. Withthis assumption 74 = M0v\ or M0 = ^ (15) V 4 V ± = total volume at 4 v\ = specific vo
