Description: |
| "In the construction of the fire-place to be used with steam engines, instead of leaving the bottom or lower parts thereof open for admitting air to the fire in the usual way, we do construct the same with one or more fit and suitable openings to receive air, which we do inject or force in through a pipe... And secondly, instead of suffering the whole of the steam to pass immediately from the working cylinder to the condenser, or into the open air, we do apply a... steam reservoir, and into which we suffer the steam to expand itself at the end of each working stroke... And thirdly, we do use and apply the heated air, smoke, and vapours... to the reservoir before-mentioned, to communicate or maintain heat in the same..." |
