Seite 1328 - In considering the possible increase in efficiency of the boiler tests with a compound engine substituted for the simple engine used, the fact should not be overlooked that a corresponding increase in the efficiency of the gas-producer tests may be brought about under the most favorable conditions. The gas engine is passing through a transitional period. In the larger sizes the vertical single-acting engine is being replaced by the horizontal double-acting. Other changes and improvements are constantly...

Seite 1348 - All of the Iowa coals tested are too high in sulphur to produce blast-furnace coke, and as the sulphur occurs largely as gypsum it can not be removed by washing. The ash is also high in relation to the fixed carbon.
