CAPAQTY OF BOILER. 



I have a horizontal return tubular 

 boiler for steam. It is ten feet long, 

 forty-two inches wide and contains 

 thirty-seven 3-inch tubes, with grate 

 surface 42x48. We burn slack coal. 

 How many 1-inch pipes 175 feet long 

 should it heatf How large should the 

 main be where it leaves the boiler? 

 How large the return where it enters! 



J. M. K. 



The boiler described, if properly set 

 and provided with good draught, should, 

 when working to full capacity, supply 

 steam for 2,500 square feet of radiation. 

 To provide this a 4-inch riser will be 

 required. The boiler should therefore 

 te tapped for 4-inch pipe. The return, 

 if made 2-inch, will be ample, although 

 it is usual to find a 3-inch flange on the 

 return if the flow is 4-inch. To get 

 2,560 feet of radiation would require 

 7,400 feet of 1-inch pipe. If long risers 

 and returns are necessary the area of 

 radiation in these should be computed 

 and deducted from the 2,500 and the 

 number of linear feet of 1-inch pipe 

 computed on the basis of the radiation 

 remaining after deducting the area in 

 the flows and returns from the 2,560. 

 If the risers and returns are short 

 forty-two 1-inch pipes 175 feet long 

 can be cared for by the boiler. This 

 is computed on the assumption that 

 steam under five pounds pressure is to 

 be used. L. C. C.
