Thru the condenser tankpasses a stream of cold Avater, en-tering thru the valve {a) and pass-ing out at the oA^erfioAA- pipe {c). Connected Avith the A^alve {a) is athree-eighths inch pipe (h), Avhich extends the full length of thetank. In this pipe, near each condenser tube, are tA^0 small holes{h), drilled at such an angle that the cold Avater entering the tankwill fall directly on the glass condenser tubes. In order to preAentthe sides of the tank from bulging, extra braces (/) should be put inevery 16 or 18 Fig. 8.—End view of apparatus for moisturedeterraination. THE STAND SUPPORTING THE EAAPORATING CHAMBER AND CONDENSER. The stand (see figs. 3 and 5) supporting the condenser {A) andthe eA^aporating chamber {B) is made of angle iron, A^ith 1-inchsides and three thirty-seconds inch thick.
