The loss of steam along with the gases has been given by Claassen,^* as based on Napiers formula for the flow of gas from an orifice : G = n F ^^JE. where G is the rate of flow, F the area of the orifice, p the pressure of the escap-ing gases, V their specific volume, and n a constant. If G is in lbs. per sec,F in sq. ins., p lbs. per sq. in., v cu. ft. per lb., n for circular orifices is about0-3. Claassen shows that with large openings very serious losses of steam mayoccur, and for apparatus of 10,000 sq. ft. he advises the following openings :— First body ^| in. ; second body ^^—if i- ^^ird body || in.—i in. ;fourth body i^Vi- ^^ ^^^° advises the use of diaphragms, the setting ofwhich is left to the superintendent and not to the workman.
