The following ratios and table of dimensions will be foundinteresting: Ratios. Heating surface to cylinder volurae = Tractive weight to heating surface = Tractive weight to tractive effort = Tractive effort to heating surface = Tractive eff. X diam. of drivers to heating surface = Heating surface to tractive effort = % Total weight to heating
