Description: |
Abstract:
For the purpose of superheating the steam obtained from the boiler I form in the upper drum an annular jacket, surrounding the outlet-flue above the water-line, and provide it with a steam-delivery pipe, extending to the exterior of the boiler, and with a steam-inlet opening, preferably separated from the outlet by a partition, so that the steam entering at the inlet will travel around the jacket to the outlet and, being subjected in its passage to the heat communicated through the material of the steam-drum from the hot gases, will be highly superheated thereby. This device is important, because by superheating the steam in the efficient manner which it renders possible the utility 45 of the boiler is increased and desirable results are secured. This may be applied not-only to boilers in which the outlet-fine extends through the steam-drum, but to boilers in which the hot gases pass on the exterior of the drum; but in such case the steam-jacket should be applied to the outer shell.
Claim:
A steam-boiler having an annular bank of tubes, a baffle-plate set in the central space and a deflector - plate extending upwardly from the baffle and partially around the circumference thereof. |
