The Civil engineer and architect's journal, scientific and railway gazette . condensed the steam in a separatevessel. Here, in place of injecting cold water, mud and all, intothe boiler, this compound is primitively received into the heater,where the water, before reaching the boiler, deposits its insolublematter, and acquires an elevated temperature. The generatorreceiving by this process a constant supply of hot water, keepingthe steam steady, no perturbation is felt, as when injecting coldwater. This heater requires no extra room: its place is below the boiler,and behind the fire-grate bridge, a space commonly fiUed with rub-bish. A great advantage of this heater is, to keep the supply ofwater in almost a quiescent state, which give^ the eflectual meansof obviating the evil of bad water. The sediment accumulates, inone or more heaps, in the front of the heater, where the waterhappens to be the least agitated. Those deposits are received insome recipients placed near the man-hole. The generator, fed withwater almost clean, is no more liable to burn. Fig. iY)...-\i,.5 i-^ a
