    The engine was a single-cylinder unit that displaced 6.1 dm 3, and was rated 3 PS (2,206 W) at 180/min, with a fuel consumption of 0.95 m 3 /PSh (1.29 m 3 /kWh). [ 17 ] : p43-44 Wilhelm Maybach later improved the engine by changing the connecting rod and piston design from trunk to crosshead , so it could be put into series production.

    Developed for Charles Porter by Charles Richard, the steam engine indicator traces on paper the pressure in the cylinder throughout the cycle, which can be used to spot various problems and to optimize efficiency. [14] [19] Earlier versions of the steam engine indicator were in use by 1851, though relatively unknown. [20]
