Examples

  • Froghoppers produce suction power with a pumplike structure in their heads, where muscles pull on a membrane to generate negative pressures, akin to a piston.

  • A steam engine is a device that transforms energy of one sort into energy of a different sort, and it can perform useful tasks, such as moving a piston, without ever violating that principle of conservation of energy.

  • It is a very simple plan, and will be perfectly tight; it is by restoring an equilibrium on both sides of the piston.

  • The water-piston is 10 inches in diameter, drawing and forcing 35 feet perpendicular, equal beam.

  • When she had finished her up-stroke the steam passed from under the pole on to the top of the piston in the cylinder.

  • Then he came down from London and found that the piston of his engine was half an inch smaller in diameter than the cylinder.

  • The steam in ordinary working was shut off when the piston had moved from an eighth to a quarter of its stroke.
