The subject of Compressed A ir and Compressed A ir Machinery offers a wide field for useful investigation. It has been attempted in these pages to add something to the scanty stock of its literature. Compressed A ir has become a most efficient and powerful agent in the hands of the modern engineer. I ts applications are rapidly growing, both in extent and importance. The subject demands careful attention and study. There can be no doubt that the great waste of energy that to-day accompanies the use of Compressed A ir is due, not only to sickly design and faulty construction of machines, but very largely also to the general ignorance of the principles of thermodynamics.
