  • Acquaintances Renewed at the Reunion
    NORTHERN DISTRICTS M ODEL ENGINEERING SOCIETY (PERTH) INC. November — December 2020 Acquaintances renewed at the reunion ‘we had to have’ TO paraphrase something former Australian Prime Minister Paul Keating said when he was Treasurer many years ago: It was the reunion we had to have! Such was the success of our “reunion” on August 30. Over 50 past and present members came together at Balcatta for our first organised event this year and put our post-COVID organisational abilities to the test. This was helped by an increasing number of members who have successfully completed the AHA COVID hygiene course. The idea behind the day, approved at the July 26 members’ meeting, was to welcome back past and present members who had made a significant contribution to the club over the past 35 years and who we had not seen recently. We used the occasion to kick-start our activities again in preparation for a resumption of public running in post-COVID times. An interesting display of models greeted visitors when entering the grounds. A feature of the day was a display of model engineering projects undertaken by members — some projects were operational and others under construction. Over a dozen items were displayed. Those present were treated to a BBQ lunch with gourmet sandwiches and salads, during which our past members were welcomed back by president Geoff Wilkinson. Among the visitors was our second president Bill Marshall, who served three years as president in 1988-91 and then seven years as treasurer from 1991 to 1998. Also back with us were Noelene Langford Above: Members and guests enjoying lunch, with chefs Clive Chapman and Maxine Adams, widows of former presidents (at left) and Andy Davies taking a well-earned break.

  • Predicting Locomotive Performance
    PREDICTING LOCOMOTIVE PERFORMANCE . W. B. Hall. F R Eng., F.I.Mech.E. The more efficient locomotives tested towards the end of the ‘steam era’ had overall thermal efficiencies of around 7 or 8 percent when working at optimum conditions; that is, the work done at the drawbar was 7 or 8 percent of the calorific value of the coal burned. When account is taken of the energy losses from the boiler (mainly unburned fuel and heat carried away by the products of combustion) and of mechanical losses between the cylinders and the drawbar, the residual thermal efficiency referred to the cylinders could be as high as 14% or 15 %. By comparison, the efficiency of a perfect heat engine operating with similar steam conditions and exhausting to the atmosphere would be around 20%. The evolution of designs capable of the above performance had proceeded against a background of considerable mechanical ingenuity and engineering insight, but with an almost total lack of a theoretical framework for some of the more important processes involved. Mechanics and to some extent properties of materials were exceptions, but until the early part of the 20 th century the theoretical understanding of fluid mechanics, heat transfer and irreversible thermodynamics was not adequate to provide a theoretical framework for crucial aspects of design. Design ‘rules’ there were in abundance, but many were limited to only small variations from the test data from which they had been derived; most were purely empirical, and some were dimensionally unsound. The situation in the 1930s is well illustrated in a series of articles in the Railway Gazette by E.L.Diamond 1 which reviews both the nature of the problem and the many attempts to produce theoretical guidelines for design purposes.

  • A Brief History of Front-End Research and Latest Developments
    A Brief History of Front-End Research and Latest Developments Ir. J.J.G. Koopmans Ph.D. Paper presented during the conference on “Developments in modern Steam Traction” in the National Railway Museum in York, 11th of December 2006. 1 Introduction This paper will cover some of the historic highlights of the development of front-ends during the last 200 years. It is also intended to give a phenomenal description of the functioning of a front-end. Illustration and proof of the examples is provided by some of the results of the tests with the RTM 54 steam locomotive. Notion The discussion is about the use of exhausted steam to create artificial draught in the boiler of steam locomotives. Figure 1 Terence Cuneo's painting of the first steam locomotive The history of the front-end started with Richard Trevithick, who mounted a blast pipe from the cylinders to the chimney, and turned its orifice upwards. The 20th century painting by Terence Cuneo, present in the Welsh National Museum, shows this detail together with the feedwater heater around the blast pipe. The picture shows the joyous moment it represents, but this author has some reservations about the way Trevithick is represented, walking with a spanner in his hand. Locomotive owners and engineers have a common and lasting tendency to be on the locomotive themselves! Some 60- years later the first serious research on the subject was started by Prof. Zeuner1. He used a simplified model of a front-end. During the tests he found that certain dimensional ratios in the front-end gave an asymptotic limit to its performance.

Time passed and the Duke was made well again by kindly strangers.
