Had my steam engine running on air last weekend ran great on 100 psi at 500 rpm at50% intake duration. When I went to 130 psi and 800 rpm the intake cam follower bearings failed so I had to completely redesign the intake operating mechanism. Hope to have it back running this weekend. The displacement at 50% intake is 12.4 cubic inches this is the actual displacement plus a couple of ci's for emty space at 500 rpm I will need 6,200 cubic inches of steam per minute 372,000 cubic inches per hour. Can anybody tell me how much water and what temperature it takes at 100psi and at 150psi. I will post some pictures when I have it back in operation.
