Film evaporation as employed in Lillie Evaporators, produces the highest co-efficient of heat transmission. As evidence of this, we are pleased to refer you to Prof. E. W. Kerr's paper in the 1916 Transactions of the A. S. M. E., page 98. Prof. Kerr shows the Lillie co-efficient to be much higher than any other. Above is shown a typical Lillie Tube which is deluged by a shower of solution. There is no hydrostatic head as in submerged tube types. The film is in rapid motion. The diseng

Film evaporation as employed in Lillie Evaporators, produces the highest co-efficient of heat transmission. As evidence of this, we are pleased to refer you to Prof. E. W. Kerr's paper in the 1916 Transactions of the A. S. M. E., page 98. Prof. Kerr shows the Lillie co-efficient to be much higher than any other. Above is shown a typical Lillie Tube which is deluged by a shower of solution. There is no hydrostatic head as in submerged tube types. The film is in rapid motion. The disengaging surface is very large. The film is very thin. This kind of circulation is ideal. Evaporation is effected by hot vapors entering the tube at 2, filling the tube as at 3. To insure against "air pockets" the vent is provided which permits the escape of incon- densible gases. This is another very important Lillie advantage possessed by no other evaporator. The heat contained in the escaped gas, however, is not lost, as it passes from the end 5 into the tube and is carried to the next cooler effect with the vapor arising from the juice. Condensation occurs constantly within the tube and the condensate flows out at 6 back into the steam end and thence through a steam trap into the steam end of the next cooler body and finally to the atmosphere from the coolest body in the case of multiple effects. Vapor reversing is another EXCLUSIVE advantage of the Lillie evaporator. Multiple effects can be reversed at will and almost automatically, quickly changing the hottest effect into the cool- est and the coolest into the hottest. This greatly lessens incrustation troubles. Besides the Lillie occupies less space, units can be increased in size, more units can be added, etc. WHEELER CONDENSER & ENGINEERING CO.
