Under these conditions horsepower and torque curves would be straight lines as shownin Fig. 31. The falling off or lowering of the torque abovecertam engine speeds results in a horsepower at suchspeeds less than that proportional to the speed, A gas-oline engine of the medium speed class, which delivered23 horsepower at 800 probably would deliver only43 horsepower at 1,600 ; that is, doubling the speeddoes not double the horsepower. This is illustrated in Methods of Cooling Cooling motor truck engines is usually accomplished bycirculating water, although air-cooled engines have beenproduced. Considering water-cooled engines only, the cyl-inders are so desigiied that water may be circulatedaround the outside of the cylinder proper in a jacket. ^Radmfor /Wo-ter Connections fo/ Top of Radio for ^/ Jackets. ^afer Connectionsfo bottom of Radiator Fig. 33—Cooling System This water-jacket is usually cast integralinder proper, although in some instances it with the cyl-has been made GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS 561 separate and either bolted, riveted or welded to the cyl-inder. Inasmuch as the valves are subjected to the greatesttemperatures, cylinder castings are usually arranged sothat the water-jacket extends around or partly aroundthe pockets where the valves are located. This cooling water is circulated either by the thermo-syphon system or by a power-driven pump. In thethermo-syphon the circulation of the water is caused bythe difference in temperature in the two parts of thecooling system (engine and radiator) in much the sameway as v/ater is circulated in residential water beatingsystems.
