A supplement to Ures Dictionary of Arts, Manufactures, and Mines, : containing a clear exposition of their principles and practice. . himself the application of thisimportant principle, and whilst we name silicate of soda and chloride ,of calcium as theagent under mutual decomposition by contact for producing the chloride of sodium, and theimperishable silicate of lime, there are many other ingredients that are capable of producinglike results. STOVE. Space will not admit of our descril)ing the Dutch or American stoves, whichare mainly modifications of the ordinary forms, which are sufficiently well known. Piercespyro-pneumatic stove-grate, shown firj. 028, appears to meet the requirement of a stove, ofan open fire, and good ventilation, in a remarkable manner. In the annexed sketch is delineated the operation of the pyro-pneumatic stove, whenemployed in a large room, fig. 624. The channel c serves to supply pure air from any 1016 STOVE. source external to the building. The amount of the supply is regulated by the valve at b,and the direction of the currents is shown by the arrows. The fresh air is warmed iu its 623. course through the stove, and ascends to the ceiling, where it becomes diffused, and thendescends, passing off by the smoke-flue. A special tube, d, is provided for ventilating thegas-lights, as exhibited in fig. 624.
