A LONG LIFE MARINE SUPER-HEATER
The super-heater, by means of which the temperature of steam is raised above the level produced by flic boiler itself, is a source of great economy in the use of steam. It has been applied to .every modern steam-using installation on land, and it has also been largely adopted on board ship. In the latter case, however, a super-heater which raised the temperature as high as is commonly done in land installations is apt to give more trouble in upkeep than the marine engineer is able to provide for readily. To meet these conditions, a British, firm of engineers has introduced a new type of super-heater, in which a moderate degree of super-heat is obtained and provision made in other directions for tho long life nnd reliability of this accessory. Thin super-heater can be applied to practically nnv existing marine boiler with natural draught, and it gives a'very large meoenre of saving in steam while running efficiently for long periods without attention.
