The fur-naces used in the smaller sizes areoften of the plain cylindrical type,the thickness of plate varying fromI in. up to f in. according to thediameter of the furnace and theworking pressure. Occasionallyfurnaces with Adamson joints-Simple Vertical Boiler, similar to those used in Lancashireboilers are employed, but for largefurnaces and for high pressures corrugated or ribbed furnacesare usually adopted. Sketches of the sections of these are shownin fig. 9. The sections of the Morison, Fox and Deighton types are.
