At the sametime the edge e of the slide valve opens the port m to allowthe final exhaust to leave the low-pressure part of the cylin-der. In doing so it passes under the shell 0 of the valve andescapes through the outlet p. The exhaust from the fronthigh-pressure part is prevented from passing from the passages
