| VOLUTE DRAINING SCHEME (F's/c). CURVES CONNECTING MAXIMUM FUEL-HANDLING CAPACITY WITH INDUCTION DEPRESSION. QUANTITY OF FUEL HANDLED BY EJECTOR (C.C.s PER MIN.) INDUCTION DEPRESSION (INS Hg.) FUEL DRAINING INTO EJECTOR FROM A 4.000" HEAD. FUEL LIFTED BY EJECTOR THRO' HEIGHT OF 6.000" THE ABOVE CURVES SHEW THE IMPORTANCE OF FIXING THE EJECTOR AS LOW AS POSSIBLE ON THE ENGINE. FOR SHAPE OF EJECTOR SEE V771. APPROX. WORKING DEPRESSION. | ||
