When steam is the atomizing agent,provision should be made whereby onlydry steam enters the burner. Figures 7 and 8 show burners that aresuitable for burning tar and have beenused successfully with steam as theatomizing agent. Many other burnersdesigned for liquid fuel are perhapsequally suitable for this purpose. Pub-lications alread} mentioned in this papercontain detailed descriptions of themand their adaptability
