WHY IS THE 

 "LILLIE" 

 EVAPORATOR 

 SO EFFICIENT 



Film evaporation as employed in Lillie Evaporators, produces the highest co-efficient of heat 

 transmission. As evidence of this, we are pleased to refer you to Prof. E. W. Kerr's paper in the 

 1916 Transactions of the A. S. M. E., page 98. Prof. Kerr shows the Lillie co-efficient to be much 

 higher than any other. 



Above is shown a typical Lillie Tube which is deluged by a shower of solution. There is no 

 hydrostatic head as in submerged tube types. The film is in rapid motion. The disengaging 

 surface is very large. The film is very thin. This kind of circulation is ideal. 



Evaporation is effected by hot vapors entering the tube at 2, filling the tube as at 3. 



To insure against "air pockets" the vent is provided which permits the escape of incon- 

 densible gases. This is another very important Lillie advantage possessed by no other evaporator. 

 The heat contained in the escaped gas, however, is not lost, as it passes from the end 5 into the 

 tube and is carried to the next cooler effect with the vapor arising from the juice. Condensation 

 occurs constantly within the tube and the condensate flows out at 6 back into the steam end and 

 thence through a steam trap into the steam end of the next cooler body and finally to the 

 atmosphere from the coolest body in the case of multiple effects. 



Vapor reversing is another EXCLUSIVE advantage of the Lillie evaporator. Multiple effects 

 can be reversed at will and almost automatically, quickly changing the hottest effect into the cool- 

 est and the coolest into the hottest. This greatly lessens incrustation troubles. 



Besides the Lillie occupies less space, units can be increased in size, more units can be 

 added, etc.

The BALDWIN LOCOMOTIVE WORKS 



PHILADELPHIA, PA., U. S. A. 



Three tank locomotives of 

 the general design shown in 

 the sketch are offered for 

 prompt delivery, subject to 

 prior sale. These locomotives 

 weigh 37,000 pounds each, 

 and can be adapted to gauges 

 of from 2' 0" to 3' 0". Couplers 

 will be applied to suit the re- 

 quirements of the purchaser; 

 and the locomotives can be 

 fitted for burning either coal, 

 wood or oil. 



Specifications and prices furnished on application.
