The use of Wheeler surface condensers is extending so rapidly inelectric and cable railway power houses that an explanation of theirpeculiar features and method of operation will be both interesting andinstructive. The Wheeler condenser is the result of extensive and wide experi-ence in condensing steam. The principle on which it is constructed isthat of exposing as much surface as possible of the cooling medium tothe exhaust steam, and producing a uniform temperature in the con-denser, making one portion as efficient as another. The tubes arearranged so that they are free to expand and cont
