Text Appearing Before Image:
ck set loosely to formchecker work. The superheater is also a steel shell, precisely similarto the carburettor, but longer, and is lined with fire brick and filledwith checker brick, the same as the carburettor. These shells standon end, each one close to the other. The generator is connected tothe carburettor at the top by a pipe lined with fire brick. The car-burettor is connected to the superheater at the bottom by a similarpipe lined with fire brick. On the top of the superheater is a largevalve, known as the stack valve, and leading out from the side ofthis stack valve is the off-take pipe, which passes down to a washeror seal, corresponding precisely to the hydraulic main or watervalve in the coal-gas process. After the gas has passed this wash-box or seal, the purification process is precisely the same as in thecase of coal gas. The method of manufacturing water gas is asfollows: the generator is filled with coke or hard coal and ignited 94 ASSOCIATION OF ENGINEERING SOCIETIES.
Text Appearing After Image:
GAS. 95 at the bottom. A fan or blower of proper size, operated by anengine, furnishes a blast which is controlled by a valve at the bottomof the generator. The blast being admitted under the grate bars,passes up through the fuel bed and brings up the heat of the cokeor coal, at the same time making a producer gas which passes intothe top of the carburettor, where another blast is admitted, ignitingthis producer gas, causing a secondary combustion that results inbringing up the temperature of the checker brick in the carburettor.Some of the producer gas passes down through the carburettor intothe bottom of the superheater, where another blast is admitted,igniting this producer gas, causing further combustion and bringingup the temperature of the checker brick in the superheater. Theblow is conducted for a time sufficient to bring up the temperaturein the generator to from 1900 to 2000 degrees, and the checker brickof carburettor and superheater to a degree varying according to thequal
