Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forged Steel Water-Tube Marine Boilers The marine engineer of to-day, conversant with the current technical literature of his calling, is no longer in doubt regarding the position of the water-tube boiler for marine purposes. He is not only convinced that it has come to stay, but is equally sure that it will, at no late date, supplant the boilers of the fire-tube variety in all important steamers on lake and sea. The question of its advantages and the exploitation of its disadvantages have afforded themes, during recent years, for voluminous discussions both in the technical press and in the proceedings of the great law-making bodies of this and foreign governments. By these mediums the theoretical side of the question has become too familiar to admit of further general interest, and the practical side of the radical change involved alone remains an open and keenly live topic of the times. It will be a surprise, however, to a great number of even the most advanced followers of this subject, to find that there is nothing at present in the market in the shape of a water-tube boiler that can claim great novelty of design or principle. Indeed, it will be seen from the brief outline of the history of the water-tube boiler, as given in the next chapter, that certain types of these boilers, now being pushed into prominence, have fac similes in the archives of the patent office, or are nearly identical with types tried and abandoned as defective years ago. Persevering effort and abundant capital can secure the commercial test of any type with a theoretical claim for efficiency. The type that will endure, however, must appeal to engineers through actual practical advantages both in the operation and in the care of the plant. That such permanent advantages do exist in some types of the water-tube boiler is evidenced by the increasing rapidity with which old steam vessels, formerly using fire-tube boilers, are being re-boilered with the water-tube boiler, and, more forcibly, perhaps, by the almost exclusive adoption of this variety of steam generators for the machinery of new war ships throughout the world. In the simplest form the water-tube boiler closely approaches the ideal. It embodies the greatest strength with least steaming weight. It can be constructed in the ship. Its parts subject to wear or destruction (the tubes) can be bought in any market and do not require to be bent to special forms, and can be readily renewed without specially skilled force. There are no furnaces to threaten with dropping crowns, nor any large flat stayed surfaces under pressure and subject to bulging, or annoying and wasteful leaky seams.

Yet this neglect in examining the action of the several parts or organs of the boiler is not less culpable than if surgeons were to ignore dissection, or the examination of the functions of each organ of the body, and trust to Observation of the exterior human frame.

This book was released on 2017-12-26 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Stirling Water Tube Safety Boiler Accessibility.-no other water tube boiler possesses the feature of. Accessibility in so marked a degree as the Stirling. This statement applies not only to the interior surfaces, but to the exterior surfaces as well. In most of the water tube boilers, and noticeably in some of the nondescript productions that have made their appearance in recent years, the tubes arearranged in clusters, and, as a rule, are staggered; that is one tube lies opposite the space between two in the next row. In the Stirling Boiler the tubes are in rows four deep only, and all tubes are laid out in parallel rows. It is possible to pass the hand, and, indeed, the whole arm, between two rows of tubes and reach those in the fourth or last tier - a thing impossible to do in any of the prominent boilers of the hori zontal water tube type, or in any boiler in which the tubes are staggered. -this arrangement of the tubes enables the exterior surfaces to be thoroughly cleaned of soot and kin dred deposits. Such a result can be accomplished only with the greatest difficulty in the case of the staggered tubes common in many other boilers. As to the accessibility of the interior surfaces, the removal of four man-hole plates exposes to View the two ends of every tube in the boiler, and, for all practical purposes, the entire area of the interior heating surface. The boiler attendant, or cleaner, can then enter the drums, one by one, and remove the mud and other deposits, scraping the tubes from end to end if need be (using a chain or jointed scraper for that purpose), the whole operation being so simple and so easily accomplished that the most ignorant laborer, with a few instructions, can perform it acceptably.
