Based on results of test made on superheated-steam locomotives, No. 28666, C 51179, C 522 and C 5318, study was carried out on relation between boiler efficiency and rate of combustion from viewpoint of combustion and thermal conduction; result of investigations expected to be of value for determination of evaporative power of boiler and for calculation of tractive force of locomotives.
