Text Appearing Before Image:
ressure cylinders, but it is economical tosuperheat steam that has been dried by passage through a separa-tor. Figs. 156 and 157 show two such reheaters, in which theextent of heating-surface provided is at the rate of 1.25 square feetto the horse-power. The principal data are shown on the cuts. Oil and Water Separators.—The thermal efficiency of anengine is increased by removing water from the steam beforethey enter the high, or any succeeding cylinder, or a surfacecondenser. The thermal efficiency is also increased by removingthe oil before it enters any condenser or boiler or any succeedingheating system. Water or oil interferes with the transfer ofheat through condenser tubes. It is better to have a solid cleanscale a quarter of an inch thick on a boiler tube than an amountof oil that could be placed there by rubbing the tube with a greasyrag. Water carrying oil should not be used as boiler feed-waterand steam carrying oil should not be used in radiators or otherheating systems.

SMALL AUXILIARIES. 299 Fig. 5 represents a separator depending upon centrifugalforce. Figs. 157 and 157a represent separators in which a ribbedbaffle plate is placed at right angles to the current of steam.The ribbing prevents the oil or water from being brushed off bythe deflected steam current. The water drains down and outaway from all entraining currents.* The vacuum oil-separatoris placed on the exhaust pipe of the engine and in addition tothe baffle plates it has a circumferential lip to catch the oil that
