The steam jet surrounding the oil only acts pie one. It consists of two small bronze nozzles, whichare screwed on to the opposite ends of a T-shaped malle-able iron pipe. Another T-shaped pipe is screwed intothe third orifice of the first, and the horizontal pipe of this. strongly from underneath ; the upper part expands withoutmaterially aiding the vaporization, so that by lookingthrough a piece of blackened glass drops of fluid oil canbe observed falling into the furnace, where they are burntup in their fluid state. The flame has a broom-like shape.
