A third series of tests was made with the Serve tubes, hav-ing at first 185 tubes with a diameter of 1| in. on the outside,and whose lengths were successively 11 ft. 51 in., 9 ft. 101 in., 8 ft. 21 in., and 6 ft. 6f in.; then with 113 tubes with an out-side diameter of 21 in. and lengths of 13 ft. 11 in., 11 ft. 51 in., 9 ft. 10i in., 8 ft. 2$ in. All of these experiments were made with a lire box furnished with a short arch and afterwardwith a Tenbrinck boiler.
