"Verbal" notes and sketches for marine engineers : a manual of marine engineering practice, intended for the use of naval and mercantile engineer officers of all grades, and students, and is specially compiled for the use of engineer officers preparing for examinations of competency at home or abroad . t. The next illustration shows Haslams duplex compressed airrefrigerator, capable of circulating 180,000 cubic feet of air per hourat 90° below zero (Fahr.). It is specially arranged to work in thetween decks of a ship, and is duplicated so that either side of themachine, consisting of one steam cylinder, one compressor, and oneexpansion cylinder, can be worked separately in case of accidentto the other side, thus giving greater security to the cargo. Themachine is fitted with steam surface condenser, air, circulating, andfeed pumps, contained within the soleplate, the pumps being drivenby a rocking shaft worked from either crosshead pin. When workedas one machine the steam cylinders work compound. The drying pipes are separate nests of tubes, and are not shownin the illustration. The plate illustration opposite shows the usual arrangement of therefrigerating machine, drying pipes, and air trunks as fitted on board asteamer, and is a good type of a large cargo installation.
