INTRODUCTION to AND SUGGESTIONS for THE EFFECTIVE USE OF THE GUIDE, 1929
THIS is the seventh consecutive Annual Edition of The Guide. It is presented to the Profession and its allied Industries with the hope that it will perform a real and important service to their advance ment.
The Guide was founded in 1922 and from the very beginning was dedicated to service, rather than commercialism. Its principles, then and now, are definite and have been followed without deviation, despite the many inhibitions of tradition and commercialism. These principles, though plural in expression, are singular in effect;--that everything must be subordinated to facts and service, rather than to commercialism. These principles are based on the conviction that service with facts is the life-blood of both the Profession and its allied Industries.
The users of The Guide will find therefore, that the Text Section contains sub stantially all of the very latest and most reliable data on Heating and Ventilating; compiled from the findings of the Society's Research -Laboratory and of other inde pendent Laboratories, from the experience of the foremost Engineers and from similar sources of reliable information; all put into most available and readily usable form for the convenience of the busy Architect, Engineer, Manufacturer, Contractor or Builder.
The data presented in the Text Pages in each issue of The Guide thus represents the best available information, having its source in individual engineering experience, in that collective experience garnered by Manufacturers, and in the devoted labors of the Society's own Research Laboratory at Pittsburgh, in collaboration with the United . States Bureau of Mines,--data prepared and contributed freely by the foremost engi. neers of the United States,---perhaps it would not be exaggerative to say, of the world. In no other way, save through the medium of this Society,--unfettered by com mercialism or self-interest,--could the liberal cooperation of these men have been elicited.
We are proud that The Guide has won the loyalty and cooperation of the many who have labored so generously and unselfishly that its Text Pages may serve usefully, and effectively to advance the interests of the Profession, its allied Industries and that vast Public which we are privileged to serve.
In the Catalog Data Section, we have insisted again that the Manufacturer's data presented must be useful, serviceable,--not a mere collection of claims, high-sounding catch phrases or superlatives, but an informative presentation of helpful data. At first, when the Manufacturer felt that he might use his paid-for space as he pleased, this
1 `
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929 '
\
was a difficult problem. We are extremely gratified that, before our persistence and
enthusiasm, the difficulties have been transformed into inspiring cooperation. We are
proud that in the Catalog Data Pages of The Guide, the Engineer, Architect, Con
tractor or Builder can find authoritative, serviceable data which he can use effectively in
the selection of material or equipment, and in the general design of installations. We
feel that this pride is justified because it has been earned--through devotion to principles
and unremitting efforts to prove them. We are, too, very grateful to those far-seeing,
broadminded manufacturers who have joined, with us in this enterprise, the sole object
of which is service to and advancement of the Art of Heating, Ventilating and Air
Conditioning,--an Art now immutably associated with the comfort, health and happiness
of practically every man, woman and child in the civilized world.
These manufacturers, whose Catalog Data appear in The Guide, pay for the service
rendered to them as effective advertising, and the support and cooperation of these
prescient manufacturers constitute an important part of the means whereby the Ameri
can Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers is enabled to achieve the publication
and wide distribution of The Guide,--whereby the Society has been enabled to
extend its wholly philanthropic services to the general advancement of the Profession
and its allied Industries, the one entirely dependent upon the other and both, jointly,
essential to the general interests of the public. To them, our whole-hearted acknowl
edgements.
,
Thus, through the splendid cooperation of its Members, backed by that of allied
Manufacturers, The Society is enabled to extend its service and influence in a manner otherwise impossible,--to contribute signally to the advancement of those ideals which inspired its founders and have been perpetuated in its membership.
In this edition every Text Chapter has been carefully revised in accordance with
current knowledge and all useful data which have become available since the last edition have been, added. Arrangement and indexing have had intensive study and . "The Index of the Technical Data Sections" (pp. iv to xiii), has been made as compre hensive as possible. Likewise the Index to the Catalog Data Section (pp. 495 to 818) and
the Index to Modern Heating and Ventilating Equipment (pp. 819 to 840) have been revised and amplified. The use of these Indices will greatly augment the utility of the work, with regard to any particular purpose. While we feel a perusual of all the Text and
Catalog Data Pages will amply reward the time so employed, we suggest that the Indexes provide a quick and convenient means of access to reliable information upon such specific subjects as may be of immediate importance to the user.
It is recommended that use be made of the Catalog Data to supplement the Text Data
on any subject, as it will be found to contain much of the engineering data on sizes, shapes, capacities, dimensions, space requirements, applications and installations, so useful in the planning, specifying and installation of mechanical equipment.
It is also suggested that the cross references in the Text always be used, as they have been very carefully planned to give ready access to the data contained in other Chapters which may be useful in connection with the particular Chapter in question.
Also that the notes and explanations (especially those applicable to Tables) be studied, as in the interest of brevity and simplicity certain data have been made to
serve many purposes by the use of these notes, but at the same time may be susceptible to improper use if not fully understood.
We are more than gratified that The Guide has been adopted in many Schools, Colleges and Universities, as a standard Text Book, more than four hundred copies of the last Edition being so employed. In apprefeiation, wepledge ourselves to unflagging
efforts that we may continue to merit this unusual recognition.
We invite and will welcome constructive criticism from every source.
More than nine thousand (9000) copies of this Issue will be published and distributed with the sincere hope that the generous efforts of the Contributors and the ready co
operation of the represented Manufacturers will be more than requited in services rendered to the general advantage of the Profession, the Associated Industries and the^.
Public-at-large.

CHAPTER I
HEAT LOSSES FROM BUILDINGS
Data on Inside and Outside Temperatures, Heat Transmission Coefficients, Theory of Heat Transfer, Infiltration and Wind Effects, Heat Conductivity Tables for Various
Building Construction.
INTRODUCTION
THE latest authoritative data on conductivities of building and insulating materials, have been used in the revision and enlargement of this chapter of The Guide 1929. To the standard tables of heat transmission coefficients computed last year data for several new types of constructions have been added so that the figures for modern walls, roofs, ceilings, floors and partitions, both insulated and uninsulated are the most complete extant.
Much fundamental research work is now under way, especially on surface factors and data from these investigations should prove useful in future editions, but are not as yet complete or definite enough for use
in The Guide.
CALCULATING HEAT LOSSES
The procedure to be followed in determining the heat loss from any building can be divided into seven consecutive steps, as follows:
1. Determine on the inside air temperature, at the breathing line, which is to be
maintained in the building during the coldest weather. See Table 1, p. 4.
.
2. Determine on an outside air temperature for design purposes, based on the mini mum temperatures recorded in the locality in question, which will provide for all but
the most severe conditions. Such conditions as may exist for only a few consecutive hours are readily taken care of by the heat capacity of the building itself. See Table 3,
p. 8.
3. Select or compute the heat transmission coefficients for outside walls and glass,
also for inside walls, floors, or top-floor ceilings, if these are next to unheated space. Include roof if next to heated space. See pages 22 to 45 and Tables 7 to 12.
4. Measure up net outside wall, glass and roof next to heated spaces, as well as any cold walls, floors or ceilings next to unheated space. Such measurements are made from
building plans, or from the actual buildihg.
5. Compute the heat transmission losses for each kind of wall, glass, floor, ceiling and roof in the building by multiplying the heat transmission coefficient in each case
Data for this Chapter of Tub Guide originally prepared by Arthur C. Willard, Professor of Heating
and Ventilation and Head of Department of Mechanical Engineering. University of Illinois.
.
The work of compiling and computing Tables 7-12, in accordance with the methods set forth in the text was done by P/D. Close.
The material for this edition has been revised by the following committee: Prof. F. B. Rowley, chairman; H. S. Ashenhurst. P. D. Close, .Prof. A. P. Kratz, Prof. G. L. Larson, L. B. Lent. E. C. Lloyd, H. P. Reid, E. N. Sanbern, C. G. Segeler and M. S. Wunderlich,

\
by the area of the surface in square feet and the temperature difference between the inside and outside air. (See paragraphs 1 and 2.)
6; Select unit values and compute the heat equivalent of the infiltration of cold air taking place around outside doors and windows. These unit values depend on kind or width of crack and wind velocity, and when multiplied by the length of crack and the temperature difference between the inside and outside air, the result expresses the heat required to warm up the cold air leaking into the building per hour. See pages 47 to 60 and Tables 14 to 19.
7. The sum of the heat losses by transmission (paragraph 5) through the outside wall and glass, as well as through any cold.floors, ceilings or roof, and the heat equivalent (paragraph 6) of the cold air entering by infiltration represents the total heat loss equivalent for any building.
The above are the heat losses after the building is heated and under stable operating conditions, in coldest weather. Additional heat is re quired for raising the temperature of the air, the building materials and the material contents of the building to standard inside temperature.
The rate at which this additional heat is required depends upon the
heat capacity of the structure and its material contents and upon the
time in which these are to be heated.
,
This additional heat may be figured and allowed for as conditions require, but inasmuch as the heating system proportioned for taking care of the above heat losses will usually have a capacity about 100 per cent
greater than that required for average winter weather, and inasmuch as most buildings may either be continuously heated or more time be allowed for heating up, during the few minimum temperature days, no allowance is made except in the size of boilers or furnaces. .
INSIDE TEMPERATURES FOR WINTER*
The inside air temperature which must be maintained within a building and which should always be stated in the heating specifications, is under stood to be the temperature at the breathing line 5 ft. above the floor and not less than 3 ft. from the outside walls. Inside air temperatures usually specified vary in accordance with the use to which the building is to be put, and Table 1 presents values which are in conformity with good practice.
In connection with inside temperatures for winter where humidifying
means are provided, approximately 1 deg. variation for each 10 per cent
variation in relative humidity should be provided. For example, if the
relative humidity is raised from a condition of 15 per cent to one of 45
per cent by artificial humidification it is desirable to lower the indoor
temperature about 3 deg. as indicated by the Effective Temperature
Line on the Comfort Chart. (See Chapter XXIII, p. 357.) The tern-
peratures given in the table are for normal dry air with dew-points
approximately equivalent to outdoor air. A reduction in the temperatures
will be required corresponding to the raise of the moisture content by
artificial humidification.
...
In making the'actual heat loss computations, however, for the various rooms in a building it is often necessary to modify the temperatures given in Table 1 so that the air temperature at the proper level will be

used. By "air temperature at the proper level" is meant, in the case of walls, the air temperature at the mean height between floor and ceiling; in the case of glass, the air temperature at the mean height of the glass; in the case of 'roof or ceiling, the a)ir temperature at the mean height of the roof or ceiling above the floor of the heated room, and in the case of floors, the air temperature at the floor level. In the case of heated spaces adjacent to unheated (no heat of any kind) spaces, it will usually be sufficient to assume the temperature in such spaces as the mean between the temperature of the inside heated spaces and the outside air tem perature.
The air temperature at the mean height between floor and ceiling is the "breathing-line" temperature, Table 1, for rooms not over 10 ft. in

height. For rooms above this height, add 2 per cent per foot of height to the breathing-line temperature for each foot or fraction of a foot difference between the mean height of the vertical wall,.glass, roof or ceiling surface, and the height of the breathing line.
In determining mean air temperatures just above floors which are next
to ground or unheated spaces, a temperature 5 deg. lower than breathing
line temperature may be used, provided breathing-line temperature is
not less than 55 deg. fahr.
: INSIDE TEMPERATURES FOR SUMMFR
Where buildings are being artificially cooled for human comfort during the summer a different scale of inside temperatures is required and this inside temperature must depend to a large extent upon the variation in outside temperatures. It is manifestly undesirable and impracticable to maintain a temperature of 70 deg. inside when it is 95 deg. outside, nor can it be said that the inside temperature should be maintained 15 deg. below the outside temperature. At 95 deg. outside and dry air, a tem perature somewhat lower than 80 deg. might be desirable. On the other hand with 85 deg. outside a 70 deg. temperature inside would be entirely too cold. In other words, the spread between the inside and outside temperature must be varied as the outside temperature varies.
Table 2 is based on average moisture conditions outside and upon the assumption of relative humidities inside, between 50 and 60 per cent, which is usual in such installations.
OUTSIDE TEMPERATURES IN WINTER
The outside air temperature used\in computing the heat loss from a building is seldom taken as the lowest temperature ever recorded in a given locality. Such temperatures are usually of short duration and are rarely repeated in successive years. It is therefore evident that a tem perature somewhat higher than the lowest on record may be properly assumed in making the heat, loss computations.
The outside temperature to be assumed in the design of any heating system must not be more than 15 deg. fahr. above the lowest recorded temperature as reported by the U. S. Weather Bureau (Table 3) during the preceding 10 years for the locality in which the heating system is to be installed. The outside temperature assumed and used in the design should always be stated in the heating specifications.

.
If U. S. Weather Bureau reports are not available for the locality in
question, then the U. S. Weather Bureau reports for the station nearest
to this locality are to be used, unless some other temperature is specifically
stated in the specifications.
. ........
In computing the average heat transmission losses for the heating
season the average outside temperature from October 1 to May 1, shall
be used. This is to be that reported by the U. S. Weather Bureau during
the preceding 10 years, for the locality in question.
GENERAL STATEMENT ON TEMPERATURES AND WIND VELOCITY
In order that no misunderstanding may occur, the specifications for all heating systems or plants shall include a clause covering the following
points:
1. The lowest recorded outside temperature in the locality, as reported by the U. S. Weather Bureau for the preceding 10 years;
2. The outside-air and inside breathing-line temperatures which were assumed and actually used in making the heat loss computations;
3. The heating load should be calculated on a temperature not more
than 15 deg. above the minimum outside temperature recorded for the
locality for the preceding 10 years and at a wind velocity which is. the
highest recorded in the locality for such temperature (i.e., for a tempera
ture 15 deg. above the minimum) for the locality in which the heating
plant is located. Both wind velocity and direction are to be taken from
the U. S. Weather Bureau records of 10 years.
'
OUTSIDE TEMPERATURES IN SUMMER'
The maximum cooling load in summer may be calculated for an outside dry bulb temperature not to exceed 95 deg. and a wet bulb temperature not to exceed 77 deg. While higher outside dry bulb temperatures are frequently observed they are either of short duration or accompanied by low relative humidities. Weather Bureau reports are frequently mis leading in this respect as they report the maximum temperature for the' day with the relative humidity which occurs during a different period and which usually is much higher than the relative humidity occurring at the maximum temperature. Any statement of weather conditions which gives a wet bulb temperature higher than 80 deg. in the United States
is questionable.
Definition
HEAT TRANSMISSION COEFFICIENTS .
The amount of heat expressed in B.t.u. which is. transmitted in 1 hour per square foot of the material as used in the building, for a difference in temperature of 1 deg. fahr. between the air on the inside and outside of the building, is called the coefficient of heat transmission for the material. The heat transmission coefficient for any given building ma
terial depends upon the structure of the material and its density.. Heavy or dense materials, the weight of which per cubic foot is high, usually transmit more heat than light or less dense materials, the weight of which per cubic foot is low.

Transmission Coefficients
By means of suitable tests on actual wall, roof, floor and ceiling con structions, heat transmission coefficients may be determined directly, or they may be computed if certain physical constants are known. If tests are made to. determine heat transmission coefficients, the inside and out- ' side air temperatures should correspond with those actually existing in heating practice, and the atnount of air movement, both on the inside and outside of the test wall, should be definitely stated in reporting the co efficients. Since actual temperature differences vary widely in different parts of the country, it is desirable to adopt some standard basis for testing, such as 80 deg. inside and 0 deg. outside, and in very precise work
'9
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
\.
make a correction for other temperatures. It has been found that the absolute mean temperature of the wall affects the (coefficient materially. The coefficient increases with the absolute mean temperature.
Tests are usually run under still' air conditions, which means there was
no wind movement, during the test, over the surfaces of the wall. In
practice, some wind movement over the exterior surface of the wall
should always be allowed, for; hence still ait coefficients cannot be
used in actual work as they do not provide for the normal wind movement
over the outside of the building in the locality in question during the
heating season. Moreover, still air transmission coefficients. cannot
be corrected to provide for moving air conditions by multiplying by a
single constant factor.*
The coefficients of heat transmission of various types of construction as given in Tables 7 to 13, are for still air for inside walls, floors and ceilings and for a wind movement of 15 miles per hour for exterior walls and roofs and are generally applicable to heat transmission computations using equation (9). Such heat transmission coefficients are always based on the difference between the air temperatures on the inside and the
outside of the wall.
Chapter I--Heat Losses from Buildings
Whatever amount of heat H, enters the inner wall surface must be
given off from the outer wall surface, so that if H, represents heat emitted
from outer surface
H, = H2 = K, {t, - /,,) 5.
(2)
Now Ki may not equal K,, in which case (t2-l0) will not equal (t-t,). Usually, in an actual wall exposed to wind on the outside, K> (Table 6) is greater than K, and (t,-t,,) must be less than (t-t,). Moreover, the heat Hc passing through the wall by conduction is equal to H, and H,, and if C is the coefficient of conduction = B.t.u. transmitted per hour
Transmission Coefficients by Computation
If heat transmission coefficients are to be computed, and in many, if not most cases, they should be computed, the following analysis of the transmission of heat through a simple, solid wall is used as the basis for such computations.
A represents warm surfaces at temperature t of inside air; B represents cold surfaces at temperature l0 of outside air. For an actual temperature gradient curve/see Fig. 2.
Fig. 1. Temperature Curve or Gradient from Air Inside to and through Wall to Air Outside, Wall Matervil Assumed Air-Tight
The diagram in Fig. 1 exhibits four important temperatures: First the air temperature t inside of the building; second, the temperature 1, of
! the inside surface of the wall; third, the temperature t, of the outside surface of the wall, and fourth, the air temperature U outside of the build ing. Heat reaches or enters the inside surface of the wall by radiation
per square foot of material per 1 in. thickness per degree difference between the surface temperatures, then
H, = H2=Hc=-j (t, -t,)S
(3)
and convection, since the air and objects A within the building are always warmer than the inside surface of the wall, when the inside air tempera ture t is greater than the outside air temperature t0. This heat must then pass through the material of the wall from inside to outside surface by conduction, and is finally given off from the outside surface by radiation and convection, provided, of course; that equilibrium has been established and all four temperatures are constant.
The amount of heat reaching or entering the wall per hour depends on t and t, and a coefficient K, varying with the character of the wall material. K, may be defined as the B.t.u. per hour entering each square foot of wall surface per degree difference between the inside air tempera ture t and the inside surface temperature t,. Hence the heat received by inner surface of the wall per hour by both radiation and convection is
where x = wall thickness in inches.
These equations (1), (2) and (3) are fundamental and are used for determining values for K,, K, and C for actual wall materials by test. They cannot be used for computing heat losses in an actual building, since the surface temperatures t, and l, are seldom known, although these surface temperatures can be determined in a test by means of thermo couples. Hence, for actual conditions where the only temperatures known are the inside and outside air temperatures' t and t0, it is necessary to use a transmission coefficient U = B.t.u. transmitted per hour per square foot of wall surface per degree differe'nce between the inside and outside air temperatures. Values of U for many common types of construction are given in' Tables 7 to 13. The heat H transmitted per. hour from air inside to air outside is then computed as follows:
H, = K, (t -- /,) 5
(1)
.
H = U(t - to) S
.
(4)
where 5 is the inner wall surface area in square feet and the other terms
ate as heretofore indicated.
and since.H = H, = H, = Hc, the right hand membersJof equations (1),
(2), (3) and (4) are all equal.
.

The coefficient U may be determined by test, or it may be computed for any wall provided values for K,, K, and C are known. By proper substitution in the four equations, the unknown temperatures t, and t.

In the case of air space construction, two additional surface coefficients for each air space must be inserted in either equation (5) or (6). - These surface coefficients may be taken the same as the (still air) values for the materials forming the sides of the air spaces; thus for a simple wall
with one air space,
Fig. 2. Temperature Gradient Curves for Glass (Taken from Bulletin No. 24, Engrg. Exp. Sta., Pennsylvania State College)
As in the case of the simple wall, Ki and K, are always the inside and
outside surface coefficients for the two materials in contact with air.
If the air is still (no wind), then for the same material Kt and K, are the
same, and K, = K,; but if the outside air is in motion then K, is always'
greater than Ki and will increase as the wind velocity increases. Values
for Kx in still air as determined by various investigators are given in
Table 4. Values for C, the conductivity of building materials, are given
in Table 5, and are taken from the published values of various investiga
tors. It should be noted that values of C as well as U are dependent on
the temperature range, and it is therefore desirable that the investigator
determine conductivity values when the wall is subjected to an . air
temperature of about 70 deg. fahr. on the inside and about zero on the
outside.
.'
12
With certain very special forms of construction which have irregular air spaces, it is necessary to use the conductivity for the unit construction as actually assembled in the wall. This condition exists when hollow tile
is used as furring, in which case yr is replaced by yr, where Ca is the unit
conductivity. (See footnote 2 of Table 5.)
Heat Transmission Data
As previously stated heat transmission coefficients of many common types of building construction are given in Tables 7 to 13, inclusive, each construction being identified by a serial number. For example, in Table 7-A, the coefficient of transmission (17) of a 13-in. brick wall, furring strips, and % in. of gypsum plaster on metal lath, is 0;185, and the number assigned to a wall of this construction is 3-b.
The coefficients in these tables were determined by computations similar to those shown in Fig. 3, using the value of C (or Cu) indicated*. The authorities for the conductivities used for computing these coefficients
3Cu is the conductivity (or conductance) for construction or thickness stated.

\
are given in Table 5. As in the case of the examples in Fig. 3, the average value of 1.34 given in Table 4 for K, was used for all surfaces in still air. The value of Kt for outside wall and roof surfaces was taken as 3 X K,, or 4.02, corresponding to a wind velocity of approximately 15 miles per hour.
A value of C = 8.3 for stone concrete (1- 2- 4 mix) was used for com
puting the values of U for all constructions involving this material. It is quite probable that the true conductivity of stone concrete approaches the value of 6.3 obtained from tests conducted by Professor Peebles of Armour Institute, when the concrete is thoroughly dry and well cured. If, for a certain concrete construction, it appears that the value of 6.3
is more nearly correct, the engineer may at his discretion compute the value of U on the basis of this figure. This of course is true of other constructions.
The Research Laboratory of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers has developed an apparatus known as the Nicholls heat meter for the determination of the heat loss through any type of construction, and by means of which the value of U for any
construction may be ascertained by actual test. The Nicholls heat meter consists essentially of a plate of bakelite, 2 ft. square and in. thick.
This plate is equipped with thermocouples which are so constructed as to operate as differential pyrometers. A difference in temperature between
the two surfaces of the plate produces a difference in electrical potential between the thermocouples.
The plate is calibrated so that this difference in potential, when meas ured, can be converted into terms of heat transmission through the plate.
In connection with this plate, it is also necessary to use several other thermocouples to give the temperature of the air within the building temperature of the interior surface of the wall or roof, the temperature of the plate itself, the temperature of the exterior of the wall or roof and the temperature of the exterior air.
Tests have been conducted at the Research Laboratory of the Society with the Nicholls heat meter on certain types of wall construction, and
the results obtained are in close agreement with the computed values for these same constructions.
It would be obviously impossible to determine the air to air heat transmission coefficients of every type of wall construction in use with the heat meter on account of the great amount of time involved. Hence, the method of computing the coefficients from fundamental conductivity constants must be resorted to in most cases, but the heat meter can be used to good advantage in checking the accuracy of this computed values. The Society's Laboratory will continue its investigation's of the air-to-air transmission coefficients of many common types of wall constructions in order to definitely establish the accuracy of as many of the computed values as possible.
Problems involving the determination of the value of U from the
conductivity constants can also be solved by what is sometimes known
as the resistance method which is readily derived from the basic equation

The average value for plaster is probably about 5.0. On account of the comparatively high conductivity
of plaster and the fact that it is seldom applied more than % in. thick, this material does not appreciably
effect the overall transmission of a construction, excepting in the case of thin uninsulated walls.

The internal resistance of a material is equal to the reciprocal of its so-called internal conductivity (C) multiplied by its thickness and is
represented by the fraction-^-, or -yr, in the case of materials for which
the conductivity (or conductance) is given in terms of the construction or thickness stated. For example, the internal resistance of 13 in. of bri.ckwork on the basi.s of value of C of 5.0 is --13 or 2.6. The internal
'5
resistance of 2 in. hollow clay tile based on the value of Cu of 1.14 is
ji, 0, 0.877.
In the resistance method, the sum of the internal resistances of all the materials entering into the construction, is added to the sum of the surface resistances, which are the reciprocals of the surface
coefficients or -g-. The resistance of a surface in( still air, based on .
the average value of K, or 1.34 is
or 0.746. The resistance of an ,
outside surface exposed to the wind, based on the average value of
K, or 4.02 (3 X 1.34) is or 0.249. The computed value of U obtained
by the resistance method is obtained by taking the reciprocal of the sum of the internal and surface resistances of the construction. The solution of. Example V in Fig. 3, by means of the resistance method is given in the accompanying tabulation :

20
Chapter I--Heat Losses from Buildings
thicknesses of building paper4 and roofing felt are very small, these resistances were neglected in the calculations, in accordance with standard practice. The computations for wood shingle roofs applied over wood stripping are based on 1 by 4 in. wood strips, spaced 2 in. apart. Since no reliable figures are available concerning the conductivity of Spanish and French clay roofing tile, of which there are many varieties, the figures for such types of roofs were taken the same as for slate roofs, as it is probable that the values of U for these two types of
roofs will compare favorably.
The coefficients of transmission of the pitched roofs in Table 12-A apply where the roof is over a heated'attic or top floor, such that the heat passes directly through the roof structure including whatever finish,
if any, is applied to the underside of the roof rafters. By a heated attic is meant an attic to which heat is supplied directly from the furnace or boiler by means of radiators, hot-air registers, or other means.
If the attic is unheated, the roof structure and ceiling of the top floor must both be taken into consideration and the combined coefficient of transmission determined. The formula for calculating the combined coefficient of transmission of a top-floor ceiling, unheated attic space
and pitched roof, per square foot of roof area, is as follows:
where
U -- ^r.X Uce n X Pr + Uce
Ur -- coefficient of transmission of the roof. (From Table 12-A, Pitched Roofs),
Uce = coefficient of transmission of the ceiling. (From Table 10).
n -- the ratio of the area of the roof to the area of the ceiling.
The following example will illustrate the use of this formula: Determine
the combined coefficient of transmission of a roof constructed of wood
shingles applied over wood strips on rafters, an unheated attic, and a
wood lath and plaster ceiling, based on a roof having a Yi pitch, for which
the value of n is 1.2 (Roof No. 251a).
UT = 0.483 (Roof No. 238-a, Table 12-A) Uce = 0.502 (Ceiling.No. 167-a, Table 10-A)
Substituting these values in the preceding formula:
r, 0.483 X 0.502 U 1.2 X 0.483 -f- 0.502
= 0.224 B.t.u. per hour, per square foot of roof area per 1 deg. fahr. difference in temperature between the air near the underside of the ceiling and the outside air.
Combined coefficients for many common types of pitched roofs and top-floor ceilings for unheated attics are given in Table 12-B.
4 Building paper is used because of its value as a wind stop only. 21

If a roof contains two or more dormers and the attic is unheated, it is advisable to disregard the roof structure proper and consider only the top-floor ceiling in determining the radiation requirements of the building. In this case it will be necessary to assume the temperature in the attic, . which can be taken to be the mean between the temperature under the top-floor ceiling (not the attic) and the outside temperature.
AREAS WHERE HEAT LOSSES OCCUR
Heat is lost from a building by transmission through all of those sur faces which separate heated spaces from the outside air or from unheated colder spaces within the building. In general, five kinds of surfaces are involved: (1) outside walls, (2) outside glass, (3) inside walls or parti tions next to unheated spaces, (4) ceilings of upper floors, either below a . cold attic space or as the underside of a roof slab, and (5) floors of heated rooms above an unheated space. In most cases, only items (1) and (2), outside wall and glass surface, are considered. Failure to take account of the other heat losing surfaces, items (3), (4) and (5), when they exist in a building, has generally resulted in more or less dissatisfaction with the operation of the heating plant, as a result of failure to heat the rooms having such surfaces as indicated by items (3), (4) and (5).
The net outside wall surface is usually determined by reference to the scale plans and elevations of the building concerned. In some cases of course, the actual building may have to be measured. The total area of all outside openings which are occupied by windows and doors is accurately measured and listed as glass. The glass, area is then deducted from the total outside wall area for each room and the difference is the net wall area. The outside wall areas for any floor should be based on the vertical floor to floor heights and the horizontal distance from center to center of partitions separating different rooms. If there are no partitions, measure from inside face of one wall to inside face of next wall. The areas of walls, ceilings and floors next to cold or unheated spaces are found, of course, by taking the inside dimensions of such areas, measured on the heated side.
CALCULATIONS FOR HEAT TRANSMISSION LOSSES
-
The calculations for heat transmission losses are made by multiplying
the area 5 in square feet of wall, glass, roof or floor through which the
loss takes place, by the proper coefficient U for such construction (Tables
7 to 13, or by computation as described under Transmission Coefficients by
Computation) and by the temperature difference between the inside air
temperature t at the proper level (in many cases not the "breathing line")
and the outside air temperature U. Therefore,

themselves, if such materials are at all porous. It is entirely possible that a building may require more heat on a windy
day with a moderately low outside temperature, than on a quiet day with a much lower outside temperature. It will therefore be evident that the wind movement in any locality must be given careful considera tion in computing the probable heating-requirements of a building, and
for the purposes of calculation, not less than the average wind movement in any locality during December, January and February should always be provided for in computing (1) the heat transmission of a building, and
(2) the heat required to take care of the infiltration of outside air. The first condition is readily taken care of as already explained, by
using a surface coefficient .S'. for the outside wall surface which is based
on the proper wind velocity (Table 6). In case specific data are lacking

for any locality, use an average wind velocity of approximately 15 miles
per hour. In a similar manner, the heat allowance (Tables 14 to 19 for infiltration (B.t.u. per hour per foot of crack required to raise tfie
temperature of the air leaking in through one degree) through cracks, must be based on the average wind velocity for a given locality, and is
explained in the next subdivision of this chapter.
.
Wind movement involves both direction and velocity, and hence after
transmission and infiltration losses have been computed, using coefficients which allow for average velocity, a further allowance must be made for
the direction of the prevailing wind in any given locality. This shall be
done by adding 15 per cent to the wall and glass transmission losses and
the infiltration losses on the sides of the building exposed to the prevailing winds. Those walls which He in the two adjacent sides of the building
most nearly facing the prevailing wind are to be considered in making this correction. This is not necessarily the same as adding 15 per cent to the total heat loss of a room on the exposed sides of the building.
INFILTRATION RESULTING FROM WIND MOVEMENT5
Reference has already been' made to the fact .that in addition to the heat transmission of the walls, glass and roof, consideration must always be given to the inleakage of cold outside air which must be heated to room temperature. This inleakage or infiltration is exclusive and in dependent of air that may be supplied for ventilation through ducts or flues of any sort. Calculation of the heat required for this purpose is "a

The determination of Q, the amount of air leaking in per hour, may be arrived at in either of two ways: (1) by assuming a certain number of air changes per hour for each room, the number of changes assumed
(Table 14) being dependen t upon the type, use, and location of room, or (2) by. computing the infiltration taking place through the cracks around
windows and doors in that side of the room which has the greatest number of feet of such crack. In no case should the amount of crack used for computation be less than half of the total crack in the outside.walls of the room. Thus, in a room with one exposed wall, take all the crack; with two exposed walls take the wall having the most crack; and with three or four exposed walls take the wall having the most crack, but in no
case take less than half the total crack. The linear feet of crack for a double hung sash is equal to the sash
perimeter plus the meeting rail. For a standard type steel sash con structed of solid rolled sections (Fenestra, Lupton and others) the linear . feet of crack consists of the perimeter of the ventilating section plus the linear feet of sash section in contact with steel work as, for example, vertical and horizontal mullion steel. The perimeter of sash properly grouted with cement mortar into brickwork or concrete is not to be
counted as crack. Neither of these methods for estimating ,the infiltration is entirely
satisfactory in view of the limited amount of data available, but for the purposes of calculation the second (infiltration) method is to be preferred
and then checked against the first (air changes per hour) method. In no case use less than one-half an air change where outside doors and windows exist. The infiltration method based on tests of windows by F. C.

without paint or frame walls with plaster painted, the leakage is so small
as to require about 0.10 of a square foot of radiation per 100 sq. ft. of
wall, or in fact, it could be said that the heat loss due to infiltration of
such walls is negligible."

containing the same values reduced by 20 per cent in accordance with
the suggestion of the authors.
According to the authors of the papers: "The values given in the
tables are from the tests as made and are probably somewhat higher than those actually found in practice. They represent the leakage when the
pressure drop through the window is a certain value which represents a
definite wind velocity at right angles to the window. If the wind strikes
the window at an oblique angle the component of the velocity at right
angles to the window must be considered. Pressure difference between
the outside and the inside surfaces of the window for an actual wind will
be slightly less for a given velocity because of a building up of pressure
within the room before the air leaks out the opposite side of the building.
Attention is called to the fact that air leaks in on the windward side of
the building and out on the leeward side and, since wind will blow from
various directions at different times, heating for any room having only
one exposure must be based on. the maximum loss. The heating plant,
however, need not be figured on the sum of all maximum leakages, but
in general only half of the total. However, the table gives accurate
comparative figures which are probably not much too high for actual
practice. In order to apply these values, a further study of the overall
results as found in practice should be made, and the figures modified, if
necessary, to fit practical conditions."
In their discussion of results on tests of double-hung wood sash windows
as presented in the Transactions, A. S. H. & V. E., Vol. 30,1924, p. 313,
the authors state:
"The principal facts brought out in the first report were that increasing
the crack around the perimeter of a plain sash did not materially increase
the leakage, and that weatherstripped sash, while permitting much
less leakage, showed a small increase in leakage with increase in crack.
- These facts were established by making several hundred tests. The
present report deals with the effect of increasing the width of the stile,
that is, increasing the clearance.
" Fig. 5 illustrates what is meant by crack and clearance. The crack
around the sash perimeter is equal to one half the difference between the
width of the frame and the width of the sash, that is, the crack is the same
on each side of the sash. The clearance is the difference between the width
of the stile and the thickness of the sash. These terms are chosen arbi
trarily to distinguish the two principal air passages which are found in
double-hung windows.

"Four sets of sash were fitted with cracks of Mo, %s and 34 in. Each set was tested with clearances varying from Mi to in. Each test
was repeated a number of times because no two tests gave exactly the same leakage, and it was necessary to obtain average results. Before duplicating any test the window was opened and closed, and the stops
were removed and then returned to as nearly the same position as possible. The weatherstripped sashes were tested in the same way,
" Fig. 6 gives the results of tests on a plain wood window with various clearances. The tests proved that the size of the crack around the perimeter of the sash has no appreciable effect on the leakage. There fore the results apply to any window of the type tested with a crack
IChapter --Heat Losses from Buildings
Tables 15 and 16 show the heat losses in B.t.u. 's per hour per foot of crack for plain windows and weatherstripped windows to heat the incoming air from 0 to 70 deg. fahr. The tables also show the radiation in square feet that must be installed to take care of these heat losses. This radiation is based on a heat emission factor of 240 B.t.u. per square
foot. For example, consider a double-hung window at a wind velocity of
15 miles per hour. For a plain non-stripped window, Table 15 shows
A-& = CLEARANCE C=CRACK
Fig. 5. Diagram Illustrating Crack and Clearance
of from & to 34 in. In practice most new sashes are fitted with the
crack at least Ms in., and this crack becomes greater as the sash dries out and shrinks. It should be clearly understood that each curve is the average obtained from a number of tests, and the results of any one test may vary from the given curve by four or five per cent. The figure shows that the leakage increases rapidly with increase in clearance for plain wood windows."
This same report shows that for. windows equipped with the better type of weatherstripping there is only a 15 per cent increase in air leakage for an increase in clearance from A to 34 in. Tests to date have shown no consistent results on the effect of locking plain double-hung wood windows. Some tests show a decrease and others even show an increase in infiltration. The authors in discussing the results of the St. Louis double-hung metal sash window tests state that the infiltration loss through such metal windows can be reduced about 10 per cent by locking * a non-weatherstripped window; and an average additional 56 per cent by applying weatherstripping of the types studied, to the locked window.

--The above curves show the leakage lor the total crack. To obtain the leakage in cubic feet per hour per foot of crack, multiply by 60 and divide by 18.25.
that 0.65 sq, ft. of radiation is required to take care of the infiltration loss per foot of crack. This table shows for the weatherstripped window, a corresponding radiation requirement of 0.12 sq. ft. per foot of crack, indicating that the application of good weatherstripping has brought about a reduction of 0.53 sq. ft. in the radiation required per foot of crack.
Assuming the heating system costs $2.00 per square foot of radiation installed and weath'erstripping to cost $0.30 per lineal foot installed, there would result for each $0.30 invested in weatHerstripping, a reduction of $1.06 in the initial cost of the heating system. For any particular instal lation the costs applying to that locality and for that particular type of construction should be used in making such a cost analysis. No attempt is made here to figure the reduction in operating cost due to the applica tion of weatherstripping, as this varies greatly depending on how the plant is operated.

Chapter I--Heat Losses from Buildings
A study of these curves leads to the conclusion that a storm sash is of very little value in reducing infiltration when applied to a well fitted window, but that a reduction of about 50 per cent might be expected when storm sash is securely applied to a poorly fitted or loose window. Curves B and C, Fig. 8 show that much better results are obtained by means of turn buttons on the outside than by securing the storm sash
with toggle links on the inside.
Calculations for Infiltration
In order to arrive at the heat required for warming up the air entering by infiltration, the following procedure is necessary:
First, determine the average wind movement in miles per hour for the locality in question (Table 3);
Second, determine the inleakage of outside air per lineal foot of the given window or door crack in cubic feet per minute at the given wind velocity, Table 15 or 16;
Third, express the heat equivalent in B:t.u. per hour per foot of crack to heat
this air 1 deg. fahr.
Thus, for a plain wood window having -fa in. crack and Hi in. clearance (see Fig. 5), which means the air channel around the edge of the sash is
approximately A in- wide, the heat equivalent of the air leaking in for a 0-70 deg. fahr. temperature difference is 157 B.t.u. per foot of crack per hour (Table 15, Part II). This value is found in the sixth column of the table. The computation for obtaining 157 is:
where
124 X 0.075 X 0.24 X 70 = 157 B.t.u.,
124 = cubic feet of air per foot of crack per hour for a 15 mile
'
wind for
in. clearance from the 5th column of
Table 15.
0.075 = air density at 70 deg. fahr., pound per cubic foot.
0.24 = specific heat of air, and
70 = difference in temperature between inside and outside air.
The most convenient values for use in infiltration calculations are the coefficients of infiltration for the particular kind of crackage with a wind velocity of 15 miles per hour under average conditions, with He in. crack and % in. clearance reduced by 20 per cent (Table 15, Part II).
For a wind velocity other than 15 miles per hour, use the proper velocity for that locality in place of 15. For temperature gradients other than 70 deg. multiply the value given in the tables by the new temperature gradient and divide by 70. For special cases involving unplastered walls or storm sash use values obtained from Table 17 or Figs. 7 and 8.
Infiltration Due to Temperature Difference
Even without wind movement, a difference of temperature between inside and outside of a building will cause the pressure state inside to be less than that outside near the ground, and greater near the roof; infil tration will occur at windows in the lower part of the building, and. exfiltration at windows in the upper pairt. Thus in the case of a building 200 ft. high; arranged in stories with more or less free communication
59
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
from one to another, and with a temperature difference of 70 deg., the pressure causing infiltration near the ground, and exfiltration near the roof, may easily exceed 0.20 in. of water, which is the equivalent of a twenty-mile wind.
The factors influencing the pressures causing infiltration are so numer ous that it does not seem wise at this time to attempt to include any quantitative values to express the effect of temperature difference, but it is something that should be kept in mind in the design and operation of heating systems in tall buildings.
HEAT SOURCES
Heat Available from Sources other than Heating Plant
The heat supplied by persons, lights, motors and machinery should always be ascertained in the case of theaters, assembly halls, and in dustrial plants, but allowances for such heat sources must be made only after careful consideration of all local conditions. In many cases, these heat sources should not be allowed to affect the size of the installation at all, although they may have a marked effect on the operation and con trol of the system later. In general, it is safe to say that where audiences are involved, the heiting installation must have sufficient capacity to bring the building up to the stipulated inside temperature before the audience arrives. In industrial plants, quite a different condition exists, and heat sources, if they are always available during the period of human occupancy, may be substituted for a portion of the heating installation. In no case should the actual heating installation (exclusive of heat sources) be reduced below that required to maintain at least 40 deg. fahr. in the building. The following allowances may be made when required:

Motors and the machinery which they drive, if both are located in the room, convert all of the electrical energy supplied into heat, which, is retained in the room if the product being manufactured is not removed until its temperature is the same as the room temperature.

in the second case B.t.u. per hr. = b.hp. X 2546, in which 2546 is the B t.u. equivalent of 1 hp. hour. In high-powered mills this is the chief source of heating and is frequently sufficient to overheat the building even in zero weather, thus requiring cooling by ventilation the year round.
For intermittent heating allow 10 per ce.it additional for rooms heated in the day time only, and for longer intervals of several days or more, add 25 per cent in determining minimum heatlifg- requirements, and size

RADIATORS AND HEATERS
Kinds of Heat Emitting Units, Heat Emission from Different Kinds of Radiators and Heaters, Effects of Humidity, Painting and Enclosures on Heat Emission, Specifications
for Cast Iron Radiators.
THIS chapter is intended to apply to the salient data on the different kinds of heating elements pertaining to that field wherein heating is done by direct radiators, direct-indirect or concealed heaters (per forming their function of emitting the necessary heat by radiation or conduction) or wherein the heating is done by concealed built-in heaters, cabinet heaters or indirect heaters, performing these same functions, mainly by the processes of convention.
It should be understood that any heater, whether it be a cast-iron "radiator" or one of the newer non-ferric, extended surface heaters specifically designed for enclosure within a wall or cabinet, heats the air which comes in contact with its surfaces almost wholly by conduction, the radiant effect being negligible.
Careless nomenclature has resulted in such confusion that the facts should be briefly reviewed.
An exposed cast-iron radiator emits from 10 per cent to, almost, 30 per cent of its heat emission, as radiant heat.1 The balance or major position of its emission is, of course, by .conduction to the air in contact with the heated surfaces. Thereupon the heated air, through convection, sets up a circulation which tends to distribute the heat, more or less uniformly, in accordance with the manner in which the convection currents are utilized.
When a cast-iron radiator, or one of the newer non-radiating heaters ~> provided with extended conducting surfaces, is enclosed within a wall or
cabipet, it emits practically no heat by radiation, functioning as a "con ductor" rather than a "radiator." Hence the term "radiator" or "radiation" applied to such heaters, or such heat-surface, is distinctly a misnomer which should not be perpetuated; And it should be equally emphasized that air is heated by conduction, in contact with a heated surface, while convection is that phenomenon by which heat is distributed within & fluid, liquid or gas. With these facts kept in mind there should be no further confusion or faulty nomenclature.
Most of the former types of large column cast-iron radiators have recently been replaced-by the small tube types, while many forms .of concealed and cabinet heaters have recently been developed. These changes make it necessary to establish definite meanings for, the terms

which shall be used for designating the different kinds of heat emitting
units as follows:
.
Direct Radiators are heaters which are placed directly in the room or space to be heated and impart their heat to the objects and air in this space by direct radiation, and conduction, the air then distributing the heat by convection.
Indirect Heaters are those placed outside of the room or space to be heated and so arranged as to impart their heat to air, which is passed over the surface and thence delivered to the room, without imparting any material amount of heat to the room by direct radiation. Indirect heaters are generally so designated where the movement of air over them is by gravity. When the movement of the air is by fan or other mechanical means, this type of heater is designated as blast heater, stacks or coils.
Concealed Radiators are those placed within or immediately adjoining the room or space to be heated, but separated by an enclosure, or other means, so as to be sub stantially hidden except for the openings or grilles for air circulation. They may have grilles over the entire front or at top and bottom only.
Recessed Radiators are those placed in a recess in the walls or partitions of the space to be heated. They may be either wholly or partially covered by grilles and thus become concealed, but it is recommended that the designation concealed radiators be used in such cases and that the term recessed radiators be confined to those set in open recesses.
Built-in or Concealed Heaters are concealed heat emitting units especially designed to be built into the walls or partitions of the space to be heated and deliver the bulk of the heat to this space by the processes of convection.
Cabinet Heaters are special heat emitting units designed for and enclosed in a cabinet
to be exposed in the space to be heated. Ordinary radiators may be placed in cabinets
but should be designated as radiators in cabinets.
.
Semi-Indirect Radiators is an indefinite term which is more or less obsolete and should be discarded in favor of the more definite terms referred to previously. It originally referred to such as the concealed, built-in or cabinet types.
Direct-Indirect Radiators are radiators designed to be set exposed in the space to be heated but equipped with integral flues, dampers and connections for taking air from the outside, from the room or both and delivering its heat and some fresh air by this
means to the room.
Most of these types of radiators and heaters may be made of pipes,
in which case they are spoken of as pipe coils. The other heaters are usually made from cast-iron or non-ferrous metals. Cast-iron radiators,
are used as column, wall, or window radiators, and in all three cases the
original large columns have recently been replaced by small tubes, in a great variety of forms, for which no standard technical data are available
at present. As a result of this great diversity of design and lack of engineering data, a condition has developed which an attempt has been made to meet by establishing a Code for Testing Radiators.*
In the past the unit of measure recognized in computing the heat emis sion was square feet of heating surface, which is rapidly being discarded,
however, for the reason that the heat emission depends upon the design of the radiator as well as its surface area. The engineer is interested primarily in the amount of heat emitted rather than in the amount of
surface in a radiator or heater. As a result, radiators or heaters are being rated on the amount of total heat given, either in B.t.u. per hour or in
equivalent square feet based on 240 B.t.u. per hour.
',
*At a meeting of the Committee on Research of the American Society op Heating and Ventilating Engineers at New York, January 23, 1928, the following resolution was adopted:
That all manufacturers of radiators be requested by the Committee on Research to publish the ratings
of their product in British heat units. Their ratings are to be certified and guaranteed, and for the present
at least, are to be based on condensation performance, determined in accordance with the tentative Code
of the American Society, of Heating and Ventilating Engineers for testing radiators. .

Chapter II--Radiators and Heaters
Recently a new development in heating practice has taken place. The effect of radiators for house heating purposes is not alone for heating up the building, but rather to obtain and secure comfort for the occupants. In this connection it cannot be.denied that comfort feeling for human beings in winter calls for the delivery of warmth in the lower part of the room, in the zone of occupancy, instead of overheating the ceiling; in which latter case, a considerable amount of heat can be wasted. These investigations, the goal of which is to determine the useful heat output of a radiator or heater instead of its total output (by condensation) are
still under way.*
This scheme of heating the zone of occupancy may be accomplished by radiators especially designed to give off the greater part of their heat by radiation, rather than by conduction, so that when such radiators are placed directly opposite the place of occupancy of a room most of the heat is projected out directly in this plane without unduly heating the air in the upper part of the room.
Another method for accomplishing the same result lies in the proper
use and application of the principles of concealed and cabinet heaters,
whereby the heat is transferred to the room by means of heated air con
tinuously projected out in the plane of occupancy of the room and re
placed by an equal volume of cooler air drawn into the base of the heater
from near the floor, thus creating a local circulation within the zone of
occupancy and tending to prevent overheating of the air in the upper
part of the room.'

TOTAL HEAT EMISSION OF CAST IRON RADIATORS
> Tube radiators are not yet standardized, and it is, therefore, impossible to give standard data. Also, under the present ruling of the Committee on Research, as stated on page 66, the only recourse at present seems to be to refer to the various makers' catalogs and accept the ratings as given. However, sufficient radiation is being calculated on the old basis to warrant the inclusion of a condensed table of heat emission based on the actual number of square feet of surface presented by various types of column radiators. Table 1 has been condensed from the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Research Laboratory Standard Data, prepared in cooperation with the U. S. Bureau of Mines at the Pittsburgh Experiment Station, and gives the heat emission per square foot for the standard steam temperature of 216 deg. fahr. and room temperature of 70 deg. fahr. The original tables were given in a report of the . Research Laboratory,4 resulting from experiments by John R. Allen and F. B. Rowley.

radiation for steam temperature at 215 deg. fahr. and room temperature

Table 2 has been developed by a method of deduction from the avail able data on such experimental work on pipe coils as has been recorded, -n and does not represent definite results of tests as in Table 1. The values ` are, therefore, approximately only, but can be used with assurance that they are more accurate than those obtained by the usual method for
calculating pipe coil surface.
EXTENDED SURFACE HEATERS
Extended surface heaters in general, consist of one or more steam
carrying tubes or spaces to which the fins or sheets of extended surface
are attached. The heating elements in themselves are not generally com
plete and require a duct, stack or chimney in order to give satisfactory
. results.
'
There are heating elements, however, of this type which are complete within themselves, and most other such units are now assembled in accompanying casings to form a complete unit, known either as a heat cabinet, a concealed heater or some appropriate name.
When installed between the walls of a building a sheet metal stack is used between the inlet and the outlet. When the heater is installed in the room it is equipped with a closely fitting box or cabinet which takes place of the stack and gives the necessary chimney effect.
The heating elements are mac|e of brass, copper, aluminum or other highly conductive non-ferrous metal, generally with extended surfaces ranging from about 3)4x6 in. to 4x8 in. in size and from 0.002'to

These plates are spaced from 1/16 to H in. apart and the whole assembly forms a heating element from 3}^ to 4 in. in width by from 6 to 8 in. high for building into 4-in. stud partition walls; or when turned in the other position, from 6 to 8 in. wide by from 334 to 4 in. high for building into wider stud partitions. These heating elements are usually made in heights ranging from 12 in. to
several feet, in 4 to 6-in. increments.
Steam or hot water is passed through the tubes in the heater and the heat is carried by conduction into the extended surface which in turn gives up the heat by conduction to the air coming in contact with the .fins or plates. This heated air rises in the stack under the action of gravity 'circulation, the cold air coming in. at the inlet near the floor and the warm air. leaving at an outlet near the top. A tight-fitting damper is frequently used to control the flow of air and to limit the heat output of the heater. In any event, whether installed in a stack or cabinet, it is important to note that, within limits, the steam condensing capacity of the heater is increased as the stack height is increased, and that in order to secure proper results the stack or cabinet should fit the heater snugly so that all air> which comes through the outlet, must have been brought into contact with the fins of the heater. The limiting height for a stack in the average room is approximately 60 in., since with higher stacks there, is a possibility for stratification near the ceiling, resulting in cold floors. When installed in an outside or exposed wall the stack should be well heat insulated.
These heaters may be used with both steam or hot-water heating systems, and are rated in B.t.u. emission under specified conditions or in terms of direct radiation based on 240 B.t.u. per square foot. No -> independent research data are available on the performance of such heaters and the only course open at present is to use the ratings in the published literature of the makers.
The performance on hot water must be determined by test since the conversion factors in Table 3 cannot be considered applicable under these conditions, although it is probable that if water with a mean temperature of 215 deg. fahr. is used the performance will be the same as when steam at the same temperature is used.

Table 5 is for % in. pin-type radiation using steam at I lb. pressure. For 1 in. pin-type the temperature rise of the air is about 95 per cent of the corresponding rise for M in. pin-tvpe and for hot water at 170 deg. fahr. the temperature rise of the.air ranges from 80 to 85 per cent of the

Solution.--From Table 4, it will be found that 150 cu. ft. of air will flow per hour

mission in either case would be 84 per cent of the respective figures
for steam.

For performance data on radiators and heaters where air is forced through them by fans see Chapter XXIV.
LOCATION AND SELECTION OF CAST IRON RADIATORS
It should be made a rule to install radiators beneath or near the space of greatest heat loss. The best place is underneath an outside window. This seems logical for the following reasons:
1. Heat emitted by radiation from the radiator will counteract the effect of heat radiated out through the window from occupants in the room.
2. Cold air leaking in through the window is warmed before it reaches the interior of the room.
72
Chapter II--Radiators and Heaters
3. Air currents from the radiators pass upward, mingling with the cold infiltering air, and form a screen of warm air protecting against cold window drafts.
4. There is less discoloration of walls from dust arising from the radiator.
If the heater cannot be placed underneath the window, then it should be located as near the window as possible, near outside doors, underneath skylights, near to very exposed walls or corners, etc.
Heat emission by a radiator at the ceiling or floor will differ little, provided the surrounding air and objects are at the same temperature. The effect bn heating the room or on temperature distribution in the room, however, may be very great. Heat applied near the ceiling will tend to stratify, resulting in a hot ceiling and cold floor, unless there is mechanical disturbance to produce circulation.
As the total heat emitted from the radiator varies with type, height, width, length, steam pressure, etc., the selection of the heater should be
done in the following way:
1. Figure the total heat loss of the room as outlined in Chapter I, making proper allowances for exposure, wind velocity, height of ceiling, etc.
2. Next, decide upon the type (design, height, width, etc.) and the number of radia
tors to be used. Then find in Tables 1 to 3, or in tables of guaranteed performance
published by the various manufacturers, the number of sections' necessary for each
radiator.
Example.--The heat loss from a given room calculated in accordance with Chapter I
is estimated to be 14,200 B.t.u. per hour. How many sections are required in a three-
column, 38-in., radiator for heating this room?
"
Solution.--Table 1 indicates that a 3-column, 38-in. radiator emits 211 B.t.u. per .square foot per hour for intermediate sections, and 380 B.t.u. per square foot per hour for end sections. Each section has 5 sq. ft. of area. Intermediate sections will emit 5 X 211 = 1055 and each end section will emit 2)4 X 211 + 2)4 X 380 or 1277.5 B.t.u. per section per hour. The two end sections will emit 2 X 1277.5 = 2555, leaving 14,200 --. 2555 = 11,645 B.t.u. per hour to be supplied by the intermediate sections. 11,645 -5-1055 = 11. Hence, 11 intermediate and 2 end sections, or a total of 12 sections, will be required.
Example.--How many sections of 5-tube radiation are required to heat a room having an estimated heat loss of 15,000 B.t.u. per hour?
Solution.--Total radiation required under the new ratings is 15,000 -5- 240 -- 62.5 sq. ft. Select the radiator from the manufacturer's catalog.
Example.--How many square feet of radiation are required to heat a room having a heat loss of 15,000 B.t.u. per hour if the pressure of the steam in the radiator is 2 lb. gage and the room temperature is 50 deg. fahr.?
Solution.--The factor from Table 3 for 2 lb. gage and 50 deg. fahr. room temperature is 1.220. Under these conditions 1 sq. ft. will emit 240 X 1.220 = 293 B.t.u. per hour. The number of square feet required is 15,000 293 = 51.2. Select from a manufac turer's catalog.
Example.--How many square feet of hot-water radiation are required to heat a room having a heat loss of 15,000 B.t.u. per hour if the mean water temperature is 170 deg. fahr. and the room temperature is 70 deg. fahr.
Solution.-- The factor from Table 3 for a temperature of 170 deg. fahr. in the radiator and a room temperature of 70.deg. fahr. is 0.617. Under these conditions 1 sq. ft. will emit 240 X 0.617 =. 148 B.t.u. per hour. The number of square feet required is 15,000 = 148 = 101.3. Select from a manufacturer's catalog.

Assuming that the rate of heat loss from a building varies directly with the difference be tween the outside temperature and the building temperature, and considering the heat loss for zero outside, 70 deg. Inside as the standard, or 100 per cent; the second column shows the proportionate loss of beat from a -building when the outside temperature is zero, and the Inside temperature is as given in the first column.
Assuming that the rate of transmission from a direct radi ator to the air of a building is in proportion to their difference in temperature, with a < variation in the rate of transmission of 2 per cent, greater or less, for each 10 deg. increase or decrease in their temperature difference, and considering 145 deg. differ* ence in temperature (steam 215 deg., building 70 deg.) as standard, or 100 per cent trans mission, the fourth column shows the proportionate trans mission when the difference in temperature is as given in the third column.
Assuming that under stand ard conditions of outside tem perature zero, building tempera ture 70 deg., and radiator tem perature 215 deg.

column are those necessary to
heat a building to the tempera
tures given in the fifth column,
when the outside temperature is zero.
Note.--The amount of surface required for beating is always obtained by dividing the heat loss from
the building by the amount of heat transmitted per square foot of radiation. Therefore, as may be-seen
from the above tables, the proportionate amount of surface required for heating is obtained by dividing
the proportionate heat loss from the building- by the proportionate transmission of the radiator.' in
each case.

.'
Frample.--What is the proportionate amount of radiation required to heat a room to 90 deg. fahr. with a temperature of --20 deg. fahr. outside and a steam temperature
of 240 deg. fahr.?
Solution --The difference in temperature between --20 deg. fahr. outside, and 90 fahr. inside, is 110 deg. fahr. Opposite 110, the proportionate heat loss, or 1.57,
?lound in the second column. The difference in temperature between the radiator and the room (steam 240 deg. fahr., room 90 deg. fahr.) is 150 deg. fahr. Opposite this the proportionate transmission 1.05 is found in the fourth column. Divide 1.57 by 1.05 and the quotient, 1.50, is the proportionate amount of radiation required.
EFFECT OF HUMIDITY
The late'John R. Allen, while Director of the Society's Research Laboratory, submitted a paper as a report (A. S. H. V. E; Transactions, Vol. 26, p. 11), which in addition to the treatise on the heat emitted by various types of radiation, from which the preceding tables were calcu lated gives other data from which the following is taken.
Fig. 1 shows the effect of increasing the humidity upon the heat transmission. It will be noted that with extreme change of humidity there is a slight change in the heat transmission, the heat transmission reducing slightly as the humidity increases. Humid ity cfln have very little, if any effect upon radiation, and the effect of humidity must therefore change the converted heat lost by the radiator.^ This change of converted heat is probably due to thfe change in the density of the air passing over the radiator.
WARMING THE RADIATOR
It is often very important to know the maximum condensation that occurs in a radiator when steam is turned on. Fig. 2 shows the condensation rate in pounds per hour for the time elapsing after steam* is turned into the radiator. It will be noticed that the maximum condensation in the radiator occurs 10 min. after steam is turned on,
75
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1939
and in that case it amounts to about three and one-half times normal condensation.
After the end of 25 min., the radiator reached a normal rate of condensation. This
curve was made from observations at intervals of 10 min. so that the intermediate
points between the 10 min. points are not known, and the form of the curve is not exact.
It shows, however, that when a plant is initially started up and the system filled with
steam during a^hort period of time the demand made upon the boiler may be very much
higher than the normal demand. In practice the rate of steam supply to the radiator
while heating-up is however, generally retarded by controlled elimination of air through
air valves or traps and if sufficient time is allowed for the heating-up process, overload
on the boiler may be practically eliminated.

EFFECT OF PAINTING CAST IRON RADIATORS
The effect of painting is to change the radiation constant of the radiating surface
and has practically no effect upon the heat lost by convection. It is, therefore, a
surface effect and it makes no difference what paints are placed on the radiator as a
priming coat, the results are always dependent upon the last coat of paint put upon
the radiator. In radiators having a large proportion of radiating surface such as pipe
coils or wall coils, the effect of painting will be more marked than in four-column radiators
having a comparatively small radiating surface in proportion to converting surface.
All finely ground materials have about the same radiation constant. Therefore all
paints having finely ground pigments will give about the same effect. Metals have a
poor radiating effect so that any paint involving flake metal, such as the bronze, will
have a low radiating constant.

EFFECT OF ENCLOSURES, WITH CAST IRON RADIATORS
. It is generally assumed that an enclosed radiator shows a decreased . heat emission. This is borne out by results recently published by Kratz
and Fahnestock, Table 8". This data indicates that the heat emission from the enclosed radiator equals or exceeds that of an exposed radiator only in the case where the enclosure is much higher than the radiator so as to produce a pronounced chimney effect.
To accomplish best results, care must be exercised to follow certain rules in designing the enclosure, the most important of which are:
1. Enclosures should be insulated with 1 in. magnesia or asbestos block, lined with / bright tin or non-corrosive sheet metal, placed next to the radiator.
2. The surface of the radiator should be painted flat black, maroon japan, white enamel or white zinc. If the radiator is entirely concealed it may be unpainted.
3. The free area of the grill or opening at the outlet should be not less than the free
area through the sections of the radiator.
-
4. The free area of the grill or opening at the inlet should be not less than 80 per cent
of the free area at the outlet.
.
5. If the outlet is in the face of the enclosure so that the air flow is horizontal, the free area of the outlet should be at least 150 per cent of the free area about the radiator, and the clear height between the top of the radiator and the underside of the top of the enclosure should be not less than the depth of the enclosure.
6. Best results are obtained with a tight fitting enclosure, provided the free area
about the. radiator at point of greatest restriction is not excessive. As a general rule the efficiency of the radiator is inversely proportional to the depth of the enclosure.
SPECIFICATION CLAUSES FOR CAST IRON RADIATORS
Specifications for radiation should contain the following clauses:
1. Manufacturers must guarantee that the heat emission per radiator shall not fall below the values given in their published literature.
2. Radiation must be free from flaws on surface and leaks at nipple connections, and guaranteed to stand a hydrostatic-test of not less than 100 lb. per square inch.
3. Radiation must be thoroughly cleaned of all core sand, and if for vapor or modu lation steam systems must be washed out and the openings plugged before shipment.
. 4. Radiation must not be placed where dirt can get into the interior and if to be
placed in the weather or damp location must be given a priming coat of paint before
shipment or immediately upon delivery at location.
.
^ 5. Long or low radiators should be crated, and the crating not removed until placed
in final location.
.
6. Radiators supported from the wall or ceiling shall be supported on steel or wrought-iron hangers.

INTRODUCTION
ONE of the serious design problems facing every heating engineer and contractor is the selection of proper pipe sizes for steam heating systems. Until recently no uniformity of practice existed, and of the numerous tables available to the profession many indefinite and variable factors entered into the calculations with the result that a concerted effort was made by committees of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers and the Heating and Piping Contractors' National Association to study the subject of pipe sizes and compile tables with a scientific basis.
For several years the American Society of Heating and Ventilating -Engineers' Research Laboratory has been investigating the flow of steam in pipes and the capacity of pipes for steam heating systems with the result that the reports of its Technical Advisory Committee on Pipe Sizes have been used by the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers' Guide Committee and the Heating and Piping Contractors' National Association Committee on Standardization in the compilation of Standard Tables for Pipe Sizes of Steam Heating Systems.
The information acquired through the cooperative effort of these two organizations provides engineers and contractors with a standard method of selecting pipe sizes for steam heating systems, thus facilitating the de signing of plants that are scientifically correct. All data in this chapter are so arranged that the subject is covered under four general divisions: (1) a brief description of systems, (2) a discussion of steam distribution, (3) pipe size tables for steam heating systems and (4) examples to show correct use of tables.
Where data have not been available from research work, standard for mulae have been applied so that the user of these tables may feel confident that the values given may be applied with safety.
Wherever the words radiator or radiation are used throughout this
chapter, they are intended to refer not only to the older types of radiation,
but also to the newer types of radiators, heaters, concealed or cabinet

DESCRIPTION OF SYSTEMS
Piping systems for steam heating are broadly classified as gravity one-pipe, two-pipe, vapor and vacuum systems; the condensation re turning to boiler by gravity or mechanical devices.
A few of the terms used in describing these systems are defined as
' follows:
-
A gravity system is one in which the water of condensation is returned to
the source by the action of gravity.
,
A vacuum system is one which operates in whole or in part at pressures below atmospheric. .
A vapor system is one which operates at low pressures and which employs devices for the limitation of pressure and for the control of the steam supply.
A down-feed or overhead system is one in which the supply main is above the level of the heating unit.
Up-feed systems are those in which the supply main is below the.level of the heating units.
Supply mains are the pipes that convey the steam from its source to the branch risers of the heating units.
Branch risers are the pipes that convey the steam from the mains to the heating units or the condensate from the heating unit to the return main.
Return mains are the pipes that carry the condensate from the branch returns back to its destination. There are two kinds of returns, the dry and wet. The former is above the level of the water line of the boiler or its corresponding hydrostatic head and handles both air and water. It con nects to a receiver where the air and water are separated. The wet return is below the level of the water line of the boiler or its hydrostatic head and handles only water. .
The choice of gravity one-pipe, two-pipe, vapor or vacuum systems depends upon the requirements as to first cost, convenience, quality of service and local conditions. Theoretically, gravity one and two-pipe and vapor and vacuum systems are substantially on a par as to heating efficiency; that is to say, the major portion of the heat delivered is, or should be, dissipated by the heating unit.
It is essential that any system circulate steam uniformly throughout
the entire installation, as too often certain defective features of a system
will require that heat be kept on longer or to a greater degree than would
otherwise be required to uniformly and satisfactorily heat the building.
This will result in waste and overheating. The one important thing to be
remembered in connection with all systems is that they shall circulate
steam freely and uniformly to the heating units and remove and return
condensation noiselessly.
.
One-Pipe Gravity Steam System.--The one-pipe system is generally the least expensive to install. It requires one combined supply and return

connection at the bottom of each heating unit to allow the condensation to flow back to the boiler in opposition to the incoming steam. There are many modifications of this system. The main should pitch down from the boiler in the direction of the flow of steam. The end of the tnain and some of the branch risers, if the run is long, should be dripped into the return line. If the return line is below the water line of the boiler they may be directly connected but should the return be above the water line of the boiler in this part of the system the main and branch risers should be . dripped through water legs of sufficient length, so that the steam pressure will not lift the water and blow steam through to the return main.
Air valves must be used on all heating units, also near the ends of mains
before dropping below the water line. These valves may vent the air directly to the room or may be of a type that is connected to an air line pump which removes the air only and does not handle the condensation from the heating unit. Fractional control by means of valves on the heat ing units is not possible with one-pipe systems. During operation the heating unit supply valve must be either entirely open or entirely closed. This is necessary to prevent the retention of water and the noise due to intermittent inflow of steam and outflow of water that occurs when the valve is partly open.
- This system is adaptable to automatic temperature control and is entirely satisfactory when properly designed, installed and operated.
Gravity one-pipe systems operating under slight pressures sometimes called vapor or vapor vacuum type are the same in design as to pipe sizes as the gravity one-pipe system, the only point of difference being the venting valves on the heating units and return main. These valves vent air from the system but prevent its return.-

Chapter III--Steam Heating Systems and Piping
mains, instead of back through the inlet connection to the supply mains, as with the one-pipe system. Both radiator connections should be valved.
The returns, from heating units on several floors are usually connected into common risers and the various risers tie into the return system.
This return system, if kept above the water line so as to remain dry, is usually filled with steam (plus the water of condensation), at a pressure .somewhere between that of the . supply and that of the atmosphere, depending upon the amount of steam passing through the heating unit returns. This makes the gravity two-pipe system susceptible to the backing up of steam from one heating unit to another if return valve is left open, causing troubles due to water hammer, noise caused by counterflow and mixing of steam from the return .with the condensation leaving the heating units and air binding due to the premature closing of air valves by
Two-pipe Gravity Systems.--Two-pipe systems require separate supply and return pipes and a supply and return connection for each heating unit for steam and condensation. Like one-pipe systems, they require air valves on heating units and mains. The inlet supply connections may be either at the top or the bottom of the unit, but the outlet is always at the bottom so that all condensation will 'drain through this to the return
steam entering at the return end of the heating units. Sometimes check valves are used on the return end of heating units to prevent steam backing into those which have been shut off. This practice is not desirable as condensation may collect in the heating units, endangering the boiler. The troubles from the backing up of steam in the returns are generally eliminated when all heating unit returns are connected separately into the wet return. The return mains are kept below the water line, so as to be wet.
The use of vacuum air valves and automatic temperature control on two-pipe systems with wet returns is not recommended.
Vapor Systems.--Generally vapor systems are specially designed two-pipe systems, operated at a very low pressure. They differ from the gravity two-pipe systems in four important particulars: (1) that the steam is prevented from entering and building up pressure in the return

Chapter III--Steam Heating Systems and Piping
matic air venting apparatus; instead of through individual air valves on the radiators in the rooms, (3) that the backing up of water in returns may be prevented by the carrying of exceedingly low-supply pressures, (4) that real fractional control is possible.
In vapor systems boiler, protection is given by devices, supplementing the damper regulator and may be in the form of an alternating receiver, return trap, equalizing or differential device. An approved return connection (Fig. 7) is quite extensively used in place of a check valve for partially preventing water from leaving the boiler.
Vapor systems are often provided with venting valves which prevent air from returning through the vent port or return traps thus permitting the formation of a partial vacuum when generation of steam pressure above atmospheric ceases. Such installations are termed vapor-vacuum systems.

Vacuum Pump Systems.--These are similar to vapor systems in every way, -except that a pump is used to produce a vacuum on the return system for removing air and water. They permit wider variation in pressure differences between steam and return mains.
They are installed in buildings where it is required to operate at low initial pressures or where, by reason of the layout, radiators must be located below the water line of the boiler. These systems are also well adapted to large groups of widely separated buildings. They are common where exhaust steam is available, as they may be operated on a low back pressure, without appreciably decreasing the capacity or economy of steam engines. A vacuum pump is used to accelerate cir culation by discharging both water and air, the water being returned to the boiler and the air vented to atmosphere.
Because of the greater pressure differential of vacuum' systems the result of faulty grading of piping connections is less serious than .in .the other systems mentioned.

Chapter III--Steam Heating Systems and Piping
STEAM DISTRIBUTION
The piping for steam, distribution will be divided into two classes: (1) transmission mains, (2) service piping.
Transmission mains are defined as those that convey steam for a con siderable distance either through or between buildings such as in district heating plants. In this type the steam is usually generated and trans mitted to the building under high pressure where by means of a pressure reducing valve it is lowered to the pressure required in the building. The velocities of flow used in the transmission mains are limited by the available or allowable drop in pressure. See Table 2 for capacity of pipes at various pressures.
Service piping is defined as that which conveys the steam and con densate in the building, starting either at the boiler or other source of supply and comprising of the mains, branches, risers, radiator connections and return piping. This part of the system is usually low pressure arid the pipe sizes are larger, as the velocity of the steam is lower and the available or allowable drop in pressure is small. See Tables 10 to 18 for the service pipe sizes for various systems.
. STEAM HEATING PIPE SIZES
Generally, in using tables for steam heating pipe sizes, it is difficult to determine the length of run upon which they are based. Usually some allowance is made for one or more such items as: condensation in the pipe, equivalent length of pipe, for fittings, valves, etc., but it is generally difficult to determine what factors have been allowed for, and what percentage of allowance has been made. In compiling the Tables 1-18 and other data for The Guide, 1929, every attempt has been made to eliminate such indefinite and conflicting factors.
The principal factors upon which the determination of pipe sizes for steam heating depends, are:
1. The equivalent length of the run from the boiler, or source of steam supply, to the farthest heating unit.
2. The total pressure drop, which may be allowed, between the source of supply
and the end of the return system.
3. The maximum velocity of steam allowable for quiet and dependable operation of the system.
4. Unusual conditions in the building to be heated.
Length oj Run
v-
The length of run must not only include the actual linear feet of straight
pipe, but .also the proper allowance for fittings, valves and other items
which cause drop in pressure. (See Table 4.)
'
Pressure Drop
Theoretically there are several factors to be considered such as initial pressure and the pressure required at the end of the line,-but it is most important that (1) the total pressure drop does not exceed the initial pressure of the system, (2) that the pressure drop is not so great as to
87 l
s
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
cause high velocities and in the case of counter flowing condensate cause
water hammer, (3) that there is a constant initial pressure.
.
It is recommended that all systems be designed for low initial pressure
and a reasonably small pressure drop. Such systems will operate under
higher pressures without difficulty. When a system is designed for high
pressure with a relatively large pressure drop and then operated at a
low pressure, it is apt to be noisy and have poor circulation.
It is recommended that the total pressure drop never exceed one-half
of the initial pressure. This applies to cases where the condensate
is flowing in the same direction as the steam but in the case of counter flowing condensate the velocities should not exceed those shown in
Tables 5, 6 and 7.
Maximum Velocity
The capacity of pipe of a given size in any part of a steam or vapor heating system depends upon the quantity of condensation present, as well as the available pressure drop in the pipe. Where no water is present or where a limited quantity flows by gravity in the same direction as the steam the available pressure drop only need be considered.
Where water and steam flow counter to each other the velocity of the steam must not exceed certain values above which disturbance between the counter-flowing steam and water may produce objectionable sounds, water hammer, or retain water in some parts of the system until pressure goes off. The velocity at which such disturbance takes place depends upon the size of the pipe, its position (whether, vertical or horizontal), its
pitch and the quantity of water flowing counter to the steam.
Unusual Conditions Under this heading are the character and class of the building, the
periodicity of use and the degree of normal temperature and the time in
which it is to be attained at the beginning of each period.
In public buildings, schools, offices, stores and such buildings (where the occupants are normally at rest) the building should be heated to or near its required temperature at all times. In places, of assemblage such as churches, theatres and auditoriums little heat should be used, for as the occupants fill the building it becomes a case of ventilation instead of heating. In factories or other buildings the heat given off by machinery, occupants and illumination and that absorbed by the contents of the
building should be taken into account) In buildings that are intermit tently heated the extra load due to heating up of a cold system within a stated time must be considered in determining the pipe sizes.
GENERAL DATA ON PIPE SIZE TABLES
The following Tables 1 to 18 have been compiled for use in designingthe usual types of steam heating systems, and may be used, by those experienced in the profession, with satisfactory results. The following
general principles should be followed:
.
1. It is recommended that the initial pressure be kept as low as possible, not exceeding.
5 1b. gage.
.
8$
Chapter III--Steam Heating Systems and Piping
2. It is recommended that the drop in pressure in the mains and riser to the farthest heating unit should not exceed I oz. per 100 ft. of straight pipe or its equivalent length, with a lower rate of drop for systems with long runs.1
3. In small installations, such as residences, where the longest actual run is seldom over 200 ft. and where the firing periods extend over several hours, resulting in boiler pressure, fluctuating from zero to about 1 lb., the total pressure drop should not exceed 2 oz. for gravity systems. In large buildings, where boilers are under the constant care of a fireman and a uniform pressure is maintained, and where the water line dif ference will permit, the. total drop in pressure may range from 3 to 8 oz. depending upon the equivalent length of the longest run.
4. The total allowable drop in pressure depends upon (a) the water line difference, (b) the equivalent length of main and riser from the boiler to the farthest heating unit, and (e) the regularity of the pressure maintained at the boiler or source of steam supply.
5. The water line difference or distance between the water line of the boiler and the low point of steam main and dry return main should be not less than 24 in., because of the heavy drop in pressure from condensation in heating up a cold system. This difference should be increased 2 in. for every ounce pressure drop in the system. If the total pressure drop were 6 oz., the water line difference should be 6 X 2 + 24 or 36 in.
6. There should be a nearly uniform drop in pressure between the source of steam supply and the farthest heating unit on every riser. Care should be taken however, to see that the maximum allowable velocity for smooth operation is not exceeded.
7. In using this method of proportioning a system, care must be exercised to see that no pipe carrying condensate counter to the steam, is loaded to a capacity above the maximum for the particular part of' a system in question as shown in Tables 5, 6 and 10 to 18.
DESCRIPTION OF TABLES
Tables 1 to 9 have been compiled for the use of the engineer who wishes to design a system with a pressure drop other than those shown in Tables 11 to 16. These tables may also be used to design transmission mains.
Table 1 gives the numerical value of the four factors of the Babcock formula for various sizes and lengths of pipe arid various initial pressures and pressure drops. By multiplying together the four factors for any set of conditions the pound of steam per minute which will flow through the pipe may be found, as illustrated, at the bottom of the table.
Table 2 is a basic table giving the theoretical capacities of pipe in square feet of direct cast-iron radiation (Based on J4 lb. steam per hour per square foot) and the resulting velocity in feet per second for various pressure drops in ounces per 100 ft. length of pipe or equivalent length and with an initial steam pressure of 1 lb. gage. This table was compiled from the values given in Table 1. In using Table 1 or 2 the total pressure drop figured should never equal or exceed the initial pressure. It is recommended that the total pressure drop be less than one-half the initial pressure.
Table 3 is to be used with Table 2 for calculating the capacity of a steam pipe, for other initial pressures and lengths when the capacity is known for 1 lb. pressure and 100 ft. length. See examples for Table 3.
Table 4 gives the length of pipe in feet to be added to the actual length of run to obtain the equivalent length.
Table 5 gives the capacities of up-feed one-pipe risers based upon, the

Chapter III--Steam Heating Systems and Piping
maximum allowable velocities as determined by the experiments of the Society's Research Laboratory. In designing a heating system no up-feed one-pipe riser should be figured to exceed the capacities indicated in this table.
Table 6 gives the maximum allowable capacity of up-feed too-pipe risers as determined by the experiments of the Society's Research Laboratory. In designing a heating system no up-feed two-pipe, riser should be figured to exceed the capacities indicated in this table. This is based on the condensate of the riser returning against the flow of steam.
Table 7 gives the capacity of horizontal steam lines with various
pitches. These values are for horizontal branches to the heating unit
with the condensate of the steam line returning against the flow of steam.
These values are safe for good pipe practice. It is not recommended that
the pitch be less than }/?, in. in 10 ft.
.
Table 8 gives the Society's Research Laboratory's finding on the decrease in the capacity of pipes not properly reamed.
Where the velocity of steam is the limiting factor in the capacity of a pipe, care must be taken that this velocity is not exceeded in any part of the pipe or fittings by a constriction, since the velocity at any one con striction will limit the whole system. For this reason, particular care must be taken to ream such pipe and guard against pipe thread compound constricting it at joints.
The pipe thread compound should be applied only to the male threads
with a stiff brush.
.
Table 9 shows variation in capacity of a pipe as affected by variation of size and smoothness of pipe generally found on the market. The maximum and minimum results were obtained by picking out very smooth and very rough pipe from the stock room of a large manufacturer.
Tables 10, 11 and 12 have been compiled from tests run in the Society's Research Laboratory. They are figured on a 1 oz. pressure drop per 100 ft. equivalent length of run. There has been no attempt made to balance the system. This was not felt necessary due to the short runs of pipe and the small systems they would be used for. These tables are intended as a safe guide for the contractor or steam-fitter who often has these small jobs to install and who do not wish to have elaborate plans made.
Table 10 is a pipe sizing table for small one-pipe gravity low-pressure steam heating systems. This table was designed to meet the require ments of those laying out small system^ where the equivalent length of run from the boiler or pressure reducing valve to the farthest heating unit is no greater than 200 ft. The capacities are based upon 1 oz. drop in pressure per 100 ft. equivalent length of run excepting where the maxi mum allowable velocity limits the capacity below this value. The capacities of supply mains as given in Column B are based upon a pressure drop of 1 oz. per 100 ft. equivalent length. The capacities of up-feed risers as given in Column C are based upon the maximum velocity. The capacities of branches to risers and heating units are based upon past experience and the Laboratory's findings.
Table 11 is for small two-pipe systems, and is similar to Table 10. It gives values for parts of a two-pipe system. It is based on a pressure drop

Table 12 is recommended for laying out small vapor systems on a basis of 1 oz. per 100 ft. where the greatest equivalent length of run from the boiler to the farthest heating unit does not exceed 200 ft.
Tables 13 to 18 were compiled from the test .data of the Society's Research Laboratory and are for various types of balanced systems with different total pressure drops. These tables with their foot-notes may be used by any one with a knowledge of the profession to obtain satisfactory results. They cover the larger systems with total equivalent length of runs from 100 to 1200 ft.
Tables 13 and 14 were designed for larger one and two-pipe low-pressure gravity steam heating systems, respectively. These tables are based upon a 4 oz. pressure drop from the boiler to the farthest heating unit and give capacities based upon such pressure drop for equivalent lengths ranging from 100 to .600 ft. These tables can be used for determining the size of pipe necessary to handle a given amount of heating surface, either in a main, branch to the riser, riser, or heating unit branch. Risers, or branches to risers or heating units, must not, however, be loaded above

Table 18 is similar to Table 17 and is for larger systems where the equivalent length of run ranges up to 1200 ft. It is based on a total pressure drop of 8 oz. in the entire equivalent length.
In. designing any kind of a heating system it is well to avoid excessive pressure drop in any part of the system. While, under proper design and good workmanship, higher drop may give good results, it is generally not considered good practice to exceed a drop of 1 oz. in 100 ft. equivalent length.

If it is desired to determine the capacity of a pipe for any other length
than 100 ft. or for any initial pressure other than 1 lb. Tables .2 and 3
are used.
..
To determine the capacity of any pipe under initial pressure other than 1 lb., multiply the capacity given in Table 2 by the pressure factor in Column 2 opposite the required pressure indicated in Column 1.
To determine the capacity for any length other than 100 ft., multiply the capacity given in Table 2 by the length factor in Column B opposite the required length in Column A.
Example.--What is the capacity of a 140 ft. 4 in. pipe with an initial pressure of 1 lb. and pressure drop of 2 oz. in the 140 ft.?
Solution.--From Table 2 it is found that the capacity of a 100 ft. 4 in. pipe with 1 lb. initial pressure and 2 oz. pressure drop, is 3475 sq. ft. Multiplying this value by 0.841 the constant for a 140 ft. length as given in Table 3 gives 2922 the capacity for the given conditions.
Example.--What is the capacity of a 100 ft. 4 in. pipe with 2 lb. initial pressure and pressure drop of 1 oz.?
Solution.---From Table 2, find 2457, the capacity of the 4 in. pipe with 1 lb. initial pressure and 1 oz. pressure drop. Multiplying 2457 by 1.03 the constant found in Column 2 of Table 3 for 2 lb. initial pressure gives 2531 as-the capacity of the 4 in. pipe with 2 lb. initial pressure and a pressure drop of 1 oz. per 100 ft. length.
Example.--What is the capacity of a 140 ft. 4 in. pipe with 2 lb. initial pressure and a pressure drop of 2 oz.?
Solution.--From Table 2 find 3475, the capacity of the 4 in. pipe with 1 lb. initial pressure and 2 oz. pressure drop. Multiplying 3475 by 1.03 the constant found in Column 2 for 2 lb. initial pressure and this by 0.841 the constant found under Column B the constant for 140 ft. length
all as given in Table 3 gives 3010 as the capacity of the 4 in. pipe with 2 lb. initial pressure and a pressure drop of 2 oz. in the 140 ft. length. '
Should lengths other than those given in Column,.4 Table 3 and under
length of pipes in feet in Table 1 be desired the constant may be obtained
from the formula in Column 4 Table 1.
Example.--What would be the constant for 2500 ft. of pipe to be used
either in Table 1 or 3?
'
Solution.--The
= 0.2 or the constant to be used.
In determining the length of pipe used in any system, the actual length' must be increase! for the various fittings, and valves, in determining theequivalent length before applying any of the tables given.
. Gate valves are recommended in all cases where the service calls for the
valve to be either entirely closed or open. They should never be used for-
throttling. Angle and globe valves should be used for throttling such as
the by-pass valve in a pressure reducing outfit.

These tables are all based on the latest available scientific data with the idea of conserving pipe sizes as far as possible but without in any way jeopardizing proper operation. In this connection it has been assumed
that all pipes will be reamed, that the piping will be properly pitched and in every respect will be of good construction and workmanship. It is recommended that pipes be not loaded beyond the capacities given.
In using these tables special dare should be taken to read the headings
describing the system, the pressure drop, etc., and particular attention
should be given to the footnotes. Observation of these rules will make
the effective application of these tables easy and save much time for the
user.

CHAPTER IV
HOT WATER HEATING SYSTEMS AND PIPING
Heat Emission of Hot Water Radiators, Temperature Drop, Different kinds of systems. Determination of Pipe Sizes, Simple Rules for Small Systems, Details of Connection.
THE feature which distinguishes hot-water heating systems from all other types is that water serves as the medium by which heat is conveyed from the heater to the radiators. Water has a large capacity for heat and for that reason it is well suited to perform the service of conveying heat.
The design of a hot-water heating system should include the radiators, the heater or heaters, and the piping system. These three subjects will be considered in the order named.
RADIATION
To proportion-the radiation it is necessary to know the quantity of heat, i.e., the number of B.t.u. Which are lost in a unit of time by the room or space in which the radiator is to be located and which must be replaced by the heat dissipated by the radiator so that the room or space may remain at the desired temperature.
The methods of determining the heat losses from a building or part of a building are explained in Chapter I.
Knowing the number of B.t.u. which a particular radiator is to dis sipate (see Chapter II), it is necessary to assume the temperatures at which the water is to enter and to leave the radiator. Having done this, it is customary to assume that the mean of these two temperatures is the average temperature of the water in the radiator. For example, if the water is to enter the radiator at a temperature of 200 deg. and to leave it at a temperature of 180 deg., it is assumed that the average temperature of the water in the radiator is 190 deg. If, in this case, the average room temperature is to be 70 deg., the average difference of the temperature of the water in the radiator and of the air surrounding the radiator is 120 deg. This, temperature difference, water to air, is used as the bqsis for the design of the radiator.
The transfer of heat from the radiator to the surrounding space takes place partly by radiation, partly by convection, and partly by conduction. The quantity of heat dissipated by a radiator per square foot of surface, per hour, and per degree of temperature difference, water to air, is the heat dissipation coefficient of the radiator. This coefficient is generally represented by the letter k. A little reflection will convince the reader that the value of k, for a given type radiator, must decrease as the length

of the radiator is increased, as its height is increased, as the number of columns in the radiator are increased, and as the temperature difference, water to air, is decreased. The. writer conducted a series of tests in the laboratory of the Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Illinois, to determine the values of k for a 38-in., 3-col., 20-sec. radiator, when the temperature difference, water to air, varied from about 55 deg. to about 145 deg., and when the water entered the radiator through the upper tapping and was discharged through the lower tapping. The results of this series of tests are shown in Fig. 1.
Using the values of Fig. 1 as a basis and assuming that the heat dissipation coefficient of a hot-water radiator varies with the height of the radiator and with the number of columns of the radiator in sub stantially the same manner in which the heat dissipation coefficient of a steam radiator varies, as determined by Professor Allen and other investigators, Fig. 2 shows the values of k for the most common types of hot-water radiators. It can be used to determine the size of the radiator when the type of the radiator to be used, the average temperature difference, water to air, and the quantity of heat to be dissipated per hour by the radiator are known.

Chapter IV--Hot Water Heating Systems and Piping
An inspection of Figs. 1 and 2 shows that it is very important to maintain a high average water temperature in every radiator. For example, if a 38-in., 3-col., radiator, located in a room having a tempera ture of 70 deg., is to dissipate 12,000 B.t.u. per hour, a 100-ft. radiator must be selected if the average water temperature in the radiator is 160 deg., whereas we may use a 70-ft. radiator if the average water temperature is 190 deg., or a 60-ft. radiator if . the average water tem perature is 205 deg.
It will be shown in the discussion of the design of the pipe system, that a decrease in pipe sizes results in an increase of friction, in an increase in the difference of the temperatures of the water in the flow and return risers, and consequently, in a decrease in the average temperature of the water in the radiator.
It is evident from the preceding discussion of radiator design that any economy which may have been effected by reducing pipe sizes will be offset in part, and may be totally offset, by the increased sizes of the radiators, particularly as the cost of a hot-water heating system is frequently based on the total radiation surface.
To-illustrate the use of the diagrams of Fig. 2, let it be required to find the size of the radiator to be used if 8000 B.t.u. are to be dissipated by a 38-in., 3-col. radiator when the average temperature difference, water to air, is 170 -- 70, or 100 deg. The value of k for this case, from Fig. 2, is about 1.34. The total surface required is 8000/1.34 X 100 or 60 sq. ft.
HEATER
To determine the heater it is necessary to know the quantity of heat which is to be transmitted to the water in the heater, and whether hard coal, soft coal, gas, steam, or electricity is to be used for heating the water.
The engineer designing a hot-water heating system does not, as a rule, design the heater. He simply selects a heater suited to his needs from those available on. the market. In selecting , a heater for large installations, it is generally desirable to install at least two heaters, so that if one should fail the other will be available. When two heaters are installed, it may be advisable to select them of different sizes, the larger one having a capacity about 75 per cent greater than the smaller heater. If this is done, the heaters should be selected of such sizes that both may be used during extremely cold weather and the smaller or the larger during milder weather, depending on the outside temperature so that, at all times, the heating plant may be operated at a fairly high efficiency. There is frequently an advantage in having the two heaters of the same size so they may be interchangeable. This arrangement is very satisfactory, especially in the colder climates, if each heater is made of a size sufficient to carry about two-thirds of the maximum load.
PIPING SYSTEM DESIGN
To design the piping for a hot-water heating system many factors must be considered. For any given combination of heater and radiator, several different systems of piping may be designed so as to secure suc cessful and satisfactory operation of the system.
115
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
There is only one general rule for the design of pipe systems that is applicable in all cases. It is this: When the heating system is functioning at a uniform rate, that is when, in a given time, the radiators dissipate exactly the same quantity of heat that is delivered to the water in the heater, and when, consequently, the water in the system is circulating with a uniform velocity, the friction head in every circuit leading from the heater to a radiator and back again must be exactly equal to the pressure head for that particular radiator, i.e., to the pressure head which tends to make the water flow from the heater to that radiator and back again, along the circuit referred to previously.
Before applying this general rule to the design of a piping system, it is necessary to assume:
1. The maximum temperature of the water leaving the heater when the outside temperature is the minimum for which the system is to be designed.
2. The drop in the temperature of the water while it is flowing through the radiator. 3. Whether the circulation of the water in the system is to be effected by gravity or by circulating pumps. 4. The arrangement of the piping connecting the heater with' the several radiators.
These four preliminary steps will be discussed in the order named.
MAXIMUM WATER TEMPERATURE
For some time it has been customary to select 180 deg. as the maximum
temperature of the water leaving the heater. With this maximum temperature and a temperature drop of 20 deg. through the radiator,
the average water temperature in the radiator will be 170 deg. If the temperature of the room is to be 70 deg., the temperature difference,
water to air, will be 100 deg. The corresponding value of k for a 38-in., 3-col. radiator is 1.34 and the heat dissipated by the radiator per square
foot per hour is 134 B.t.u. A steam radiator of similar size and design
and supplied with low-pressure steam will dissipate about 210 B.t.u.
per square foot an hour. Under these conditions, a hot-water heating
system would require about 210 sq. ft. of radiation for every 134 sq. ft.
required by the steam heating system. The first cost of the. hot-water
system would, consequently, be considerably higher than that of the
corresponding steam system. This higher first cost of a hot-water system
is frequently the cause of the installation of a steam system.
If, on the other hand, 220 deg. is selected as the temperature of the
water leaving the heater, the average temperature of the water in the
radiator will be about 210 deg., practically the same as that in low-pressure
steam radiation, and the total radiation required for the hot-water system
will be about the same as that required for the corresponding steam
system. The cost of the pipe system for hot water is probably a little
higher than the cost of the pipe system for steam, but the cost of valves
and traps for a steam system is higher than the cost of the valves for a
hot-water system, so that, finally, the cost of a hot-water heating system
will not be higher, and is frequently lower, than the cost of a corresponding
steam heating system, if the maximum temperature of the water is
selected sufficiently high. .
'
The selection of 220 deg. as the maximum water temperature is
entirely proper because the minimum outside temperature for which the
116
Chapter IV--Hot Water Heating Systems and Piping
heating system is designed and for which the heat losses are calculated, occurs only a few times in any one year and perhaps never in some years. Consequently, it is very seldom and in some years never necessary to heat the water to the assumed maximum temperature.
If 220 deg. is selected as the maximum temperature, it is necessary to provide sufficient pressure of the water in all radiators and in the entire pipe system so that the water will not boil at that temperature. This can be accomplished easily in all closed systems and also in all open systems. In the latter case, it is only necessary , to place the expansion tank at a sufficient altitude above the highest point of the heating system. For example, if the expansion tank is located 10 ft. above the highest point in the system and if the expansion tank riser is filled with 200 deg.
Fig. 3. An Illustration of the Variation, with the Outside Temperature, of the . Required Maximum Water Temperature in the Heating System
water when the flow risers carry 220. deg. water, the pressure at the highest point of the heating system will be about 4.2 lb. per sq. in. The corresponding boiling point is about 226 deg. and there would be no danger of. boiling the water in the heating system at 220 deg. '
In such cases the expansion tank riser should be connected to the return main. Precautions must always be taken to prevent freezing of the water in the expansion tank or in the expansion tank riser.
Having assumed the maximum temperature of the water for the minimum outside temperature, the required maximum temperature of the water for any other outside temperature may be found as follows:
If 220 deg. is selected as the maximum temperature of the water when the minimum outside temperature is --10, deg., if the inside tem perature is to be 70 deg. and the temperature drop through the radiator is to be 20 deg., if R represents the total radiation in square feet, and if
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
it is assumed that the total heat losses are proportional to the temperature differences, inside and outside, the total heat loss will be 1.52 R (210 -- 70) or 212.S R. In this calculation, 1.52 is the value of k for a 38-in., 3-col. radiator. When the maximum water temperature is 180 deg., the total heat loss will be 1.34 R (170 -- 70) or 134 R. Similarly, when the maxi mum water temperature is 140 deg. the total heat loss will be 69.6 R. Since a heat loss of 212.8 R corresponds to a temperature difference, inside to outside, of 80 deg., heat losses of 134 R and 69.6 R, correspond, respectively, to 49 deg. and 25.5 deg. of temperature differences. Con sequently, the two assumed maximum water temperatures correspond, respectively, to outside temperatures of 21 deg. and 44.5 deg. From such data, a curve like that shown in Fig. 3 may be constructed and used
to determine the maximum water temperature for any given outside
temperature. Such a curve will, however, not show, the correct water temperatures
for all times, as heat loss of buildings depends to a large extent upon the direction and velocity of the wind. The values shown by the curve must, therefore, be modified from time to time by the operating engineer according to the character of the wind prevailing at that particular time.
TEMPERATURE DROP THROUGH THE RADIATOR
For any given radiator, the drop in the temperature of the water as it flows through the radiator is determined by the quantity of water flowing through the radiator in a given time. For example, if a.radiator is to dissipate 10,000 B.t.u. per'hour with a temperature drop of 10 deg., it is necessary that 1000 lb. of water flow through the radiator per hour. If, on the other hand, the temperature drop is to be 20 deg., only 500 lb.
of water must flow through the radiator per hour. If, in both cases, the same size pipe is used, the velocity of the water must be twice as high
in the former case, as in the latter, and since the friction of water in pipes varies almost as the square of the velocity, it follows that the friction head is almost four times as great in the former case as in the latter. If, in both cases, the friction head must have a fixed value-- the same as that of the available pressure head, it is evident that the
temperature drop through the radiator decreases as the pipe sizes are increased. It was shown above that the required size of the radiator
decreases as the temperature drop through the radiator decreases.
Reducing the temperature drop through the radiator, then, decreases the sizes of .the radiators but increases the sizes of the piping; in other words, it decreases the cost of the radiators but increases the cost of the piping. There is, consequently, an optimum temperature drop through
the radiators for every installation which carries with it the lowest cost of installation. This optimum temperature drop can be determined by a few trial calculations. As a rule, such calculations are never made; the
temperature drop is selected arbitrarily.
.
A temperature drop of from 20 to 30 deg. is common and generally
quite satisfactory.
THE MOTIVE FORCE
Whether gravity circulation or forced circulation is to be adopted for any particular installation is generally evident from the nature of the case.
In almost all residence systems and in a good many installations in
118
Chapter IV--Hot Water Heating Systems and Piping
larger buildings, gravity circulation is entirely satisfactory and should be adopted because its operation is much more simple and also cheaper than that of forced circulation.
For installations which are too large to function well as gravity systems and for all general heating systems which serve a group of buildings, forced circulation should be adopted.
The optimum velocity of the water in forced circulation systems is subject to calculation. As the velocity is increased, the size, and therefore also the cost, of the piping and radiation is decreased but the cost of the pump and the cost of operating the. pump are increased. As a general rule, a velocity of from 6 to 10 ft. per second will be found satisfactory.
In gravity circulation systems, the velocity of the water generally varies from about 1 to about 6 in. per second.
ARRANGEMENT OF PIPING
Having determined the location of the heater and the. locations of the several radiators, there are a large number of different ways in which the piping can be arranged to connect the heater and the radiators so as to secure an entirely satisfactory operation of the system, provided the radiators and the several pipes of the system are of correct size so that, in every case, the pressure head for every radiator is exactly equal to the friction head in the circuit of that radiator, when the system is operating at a uniform rate and when each radiator is dissipating its correct quantity of heat.
Fig. 4 shows a very small heating system consisting of a heater, located in the basement, two radiators on the first floor, and two on the
second, floor. Ten different methods of connecting the heater to the
radiator for this small system are shown. It is evident that the ten methods shown are not the only methods which could be used. It is
also evident that for a larger heating system, a larger number of different methods of connecting the heater to the radiators exist.
Several attempts have been made to assign distinctive names to the several methods or types of piping for hot-water heating systems. The
result is not satisfactory because it is possible to have so many variations
of each typical method or system of piping. The following definitions,
supplemented by the illustrations of Fig. 4, will serve to describe the
more common general types of piping:
'
1. A one-pipe system is one in which the water flows through more than one radiator before it returns to" the heater.
2. A two-pipe system is one in which all water returns to the heater after it has passed through one radiator. In a two-pipe system all radiators are supplied with water at the temperature at which the water leaves the heater,- neglecting the slight cooling which takes place in the pipe leading from the heater to the radiator.
Systems 1, 2, 3, and 4 of Fig. 4 have one-pipe mains and two-pipe risers. Systems 7 and 8 have two-pipe mains and one-pipe riser. Systems 5, 6, 9, and 10 have two-pipe systems throughout.
3. Art over-head distribution system is one in which a main flow riser extends from the heater to the attic, the distributing main is located in the attic, and the return main in the basement. Systems 7, 8, 9, and 10 illustrate this type.
4. An under-fool distribution system is one in which the main flow riser extends only to the basement ceiling, and the main flow line as well as the main return line is located below the basement ceiling. Systems 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 illustrate this type.

5. A direct-return system is one in which the water is returned to the heater along a direct path, so that the total distance traveled by the water is the shortest feasible distance, and so that there is a considerable difference in the lengths of the several circuits composing the system.
6. A reversed-return system is one in which the water from the several radiators is ' returned along paths arranged so that all circuits composing the system, or composing major sub-division of the system, are practically of equal length. A reversed-return system is to be preferred to a direct-return system because it is easier to arrange the circuits so that, in every case, the friction head is equal to the pressure head, and because, in starting the system, all circuits of the reversed-return system being to function prac tically at the same time, whereas, in a direct-return system, the longer circuits require considerably more time to begin operating'than the shorter circuits. The direct-return system is illustrated by Systems 5, 7, and 9. The reversed-return system is illustrated by Systems 6, 8, and 10.
DETERMINING PIPE SIZES
Having settled on the arrangement of the circuits for the system, generally by selecting a scheme similar to one of those shown in Fig. 4, it is customary to assume the pipe sizes and, having done that, to calculate the pressure head and the friction head for every circuit. If the two heads happen to be practically equal, the assumed pipe size is the correct one. If there is a material difference between the two, a change is made in the assumed size of the pipe, or of a portion of the pipe, and a new friction head calculation is made. This process is repeated until the correct size has been found.
To illustrate the method, -let it be required to find the correct size for the pipe of the elementary system shown in Fig. 5. This system is to dissipate 12,000 B.t.u. when the temperature of the water is 200 deg. in the flow riser and 180 deg. in the return riser. The center of the radiator is to be 7 ft. above the center of the heater. The pressure head results from the difference in-the weights of two columns of water, 7 ft. high, one having a temperature of 200 deg. and the other one of 180 deg. This difference in weight can be calculated. However, it can be determined more easily from the diagram of Fig'. 6. It appears from this diagram that for 200 deg. in the flow riser and 180 .deg. in the return riser, the pressure head is 90 milinches per-foot of water column. The pressure head for the system is, - therefore, 7 X 90, or 630 milinches of water.

These relations are very nearly correct for the low velocities existing in gravity circulation; for the higher velocities employed in forced circulation, they are sufficiently accurate because .every radiator has practically the same number of valves and tees in its circuit and is, therefore, affected equally by any
variation from the ratios given above.
122
Chapter IV--Hot Water Heating Systems and Piping
In other words, the pressure head causing circulation in the system is the
same as that produced by a column of water Jj^in. high.
This calculation shows clearly that the motive force involved in gravity circulation hot-water heating is very small and that great care must be taken to adjust the friction heads to the pressure heads when the water can flow along any one of several available circuits.
To calculate the friction head in the circuit, we note, first, that the circuit consists of 22 ft. of pipe, 3 elbows, 1 heater, and 1 radiator; and,
second, from Table 1, that the frictional resistance of 1 heater and 1 radiator is, for each, equivalent to the frictional resistance of 3 elbows. Consequently, the friction head of the entire circuit is equal to that in
22 ft. of pipe and 9 elbows. Assuming, now, that 1-in. pipe is to be used,

the friction heads in the pipe and in the elbows can be calculated by known formulae, or, they can be determined more readily from the diagrams of Figs. 7 and 8. It will be noted from Fig. 7, that for a 1-in. pipe, for 12,000 B.t.u. per hour, and for a temperature drop of 20 deg., the friction head is 18 milinches per foot of-pipe and 35 milinches.

per elbow. Incidentally, we note also that the velocity will be about
'5 in. per second.
,
The total friction is, therefore,
\. ' ' .................
22 X 18 = 396 ' 9 X 35 = 315 711 milinches.
126
Chapter IV--Hot Water Heating Systems and Piping
As this is slightly more than-the available pressure head of 630 milinches, a 1-in. pipe is a trifle too small. However, the difference between the calculated friction head and the available pressure head is so small that the 1-in. pipe can safely be used.
If a 134-in. pipe were used, the pressure head would be
22 X 5 = 110 9 X 11 -- 99 209 milinches, or less
than one-third of the available pressure head. Consequently, a pipe would be entirely too large.
. The calculation shows how easily friction head calculations can be made.' . For more complicated installations, the calculations are more complicated, but in all cases, they are fairly simple. More detailed instructions than can be given here for such calculations may be found in textBooks and in magazine articles.
EMPIRICAL RULES
A veiy great demand exists for empirical rules or tables by means of which pipe sizes for hot-water heating systems can be determined accord ing to the radiation which the pipe is to serve and without the necessity of friction head and pressure head calculations.
It is not possible to prepare such tables or rules which would have any
degree of accuracy.
For examples. in the elementary heating system shown in Fig. 5, a
1-in. pipe is practically the correct size. If the radiator were placed about
10 or 14 ft. above the heater instead of 7 ft., a 1-in. pipe would be entirely
too large; or, if the radiator were placed at a considerably greater distance
from the heater so that the number of elbows and the length of the pipe
of the circuit were increased materially, a 1-in. pipe would be too small.
So in this simple case, under different circumstances, a %-in. pipe, a
1-in. pipe, or a 1
pipe would be the correct size to select. In the
10 types of pipe systems shown in Fig. 4, it is quite evident that no
empirical rule could be devised which would correctly give the pipe sizes
to be used in every one of the ten cases shown there.
There are a number of empirical rules, however, contained in the catalogue -data of the various manufacturers of hot-water heating apparatus which may be used with success if properly applied to such ordinary problems as these manufacturers have found them applicable to. Where the runs are not long and the various branches of the system can be.fairly well equalized as to length of run and amounts of radiation, these practical rules, when applied to residences and other relatively small buildings of ordinary ceiling lengths, prove quite successful.
There are also a number of practical suggestions, to be found in these data, as to piping details and different kinds of connections.

not usually the case to find much attention given to complicated formulae and curves; this is for the reason that the saving on installations involving
only a few hundred dollars is so small as not to justify elaborate engi neering calculation besides which the work itself is generally installed by
a competition contractor and no funds are available for which a proper designer could be employed. As a general rule the contractor himself
does all the designing which is necessary and he doesn't want to be bothered with any complication which can in any way be avoided.
Probably the simplest way of determining hot-water pipe sizes in the
ordinary small gravity system is the old method of taking the area of each radiator connection or valve and adding these areas together where
the lines join, making the area of combined line practically equal to the
sum of all the areas which the line supplies.
Thus if a pipe is feeding three radiators, one with a in. connection,
one with a 1-in. connection and the third with a lj^-in. connection the sum of these areas is as follows:
1 in.......................... 0.863 sq. in.
IX in.......... :.......... 2.038 Xin..................... 0.533
3.434 sq. in.
Referring back to. the table it will be found that the pipe which has practically the same area is a 2-in. pipe which has an area of 3.356 sq. in. '

unnecessary but at the same time closer results than that given in the above are desired, the table given below which takes into the consideration the heigfit of the riser available to circulate the line may be recommended.
The risers are then connected up to the mains on the basis of allowing a factor for each size of pipe and then adding these factors to obtain the factor corresponding to the proper size of basement main. These factors
are as follows:

Thus, if the. three radiators previously considered were set and sized as follows; the %-in. radiator with 20 sq.. ft., and located 40 ft. above the boiler; the 1-in. radiator with 40 sq. ft. and set 20 ft. above the boiler and the 1 J^-in. radiator with 75'sq. ft., and set 10 ft. above the boiler all being on the same riser, the riser size would be as follows:

arid the factor 30 is equivalent to a lj^-in. riser. .
': Even if these radiators had all beeri placed on the first floor (or 10 ft. above the boiler), the riser size of lj^-in. would still have been sufficient for the three or their equivalent in one radiator. This indicates that the method of combining valve areas gives about one pipe size larger than when more accurately figured.
AIR SEALED OR CLOSED HOT WATER SYSTEMS*
For many years the closed system of hot-water heating iri some form has been used successfully abroad, but there has been little thought given to and no research work done in connection with the a'r sealed system in this country, so that available data is meagre. For design

sizes, etc.
''
Due to the more rapid circulation of water in an air sealed system
50 per cent more radiation can be supplied than by a gravity connection.
Therefore the rules as set forth by F. E. Giesecke, N. S. Thompson and
C. A. Fuller in their books on hot-water heating can be used to advantage
by adding 50 per cent to their formula for house heating. The following
table would then be applicable for air sealed hot-water system.

The piping layout should be designed to conform to the best engineering
experience of the engineer. It is not necessary except on very small mains to continue the mains full size to the end for they should end two sizes larger than the last radiator they supply. In all cases mains should end in the first floor radiator. Where a riser extends beyond the last first floor radiator the line running out to it should be treated as a lateral. See plan Fig. 9.
In each case the lateral leading from the main need be no larger than
the radiator valve it supplies but care should be exercised that allowance is made for the proper distribution of the water to the radiators. Con
nections as shown in plan Fig. 9 are recommended, the B connection being used on all first floor radiators except right at the boiler where the A connection can often be used to advantage. The C connection is used on upper floors on the same level to supply two or more radiators
from one riser and the D connection is used on risers feeding more than one floor and the style of connection should be used on the different floors of a building where it is desired to extend to a floor above.
The area of mains both flow and return must equal or exceed the total
area of the valve- sizes they are to supply. It is recommended that nearby radiators to the boiler have separate returns and that These returns enter the boiler as shown in Fig. 10.
. Many sealed systems of hot-water heating do not function properly on account of lack of air in the air sealed expansion tank. Tank sizes
should conform to the amount of water contained in the heating system,
and are based on
lb. of water to the gallon, for tank capacity. The

By using the sealed system of hot-water heating it has been found that there is a ready absorption of heat by the water, a rapid circulation and uniform distribution of the water in the radiator and the possibility of close regulation depending'on the use of the pressure obtained by the expanding water against the air in the sealed tank.

.
IT is important that the duty of the boiler be clearly understood. The boiler accomplishes its main purpose when a specified quantity of heat in dry steam or hot water is delivered at its outlet. If the boiler is
equipped, with automatic temperature or pressure control, this control
should actuate dampers or other means for controlling the rate of com
bustion within certain limits. When equipped with devices intended to
accomplish a certain combustion result, as, for example, to burn bitu
minous coal smokelessly, such results should be accomplished without
undue attention.
'
* Certain conditions affecting the operation of the boiler must be met
if it is to accomplish its purpose. The most important of these are
as follows:
1
(1) There must be chimney or other means capable of supplying an adequate draft. (2) The fuel used must be as good as that contemplated when the boiler was selected, (3) The quality and frequency of attention must equal that upon which selection was based. (4) The system must be properly designed to quickly return the Water to the boiler after its heat has been delivered to the desired points. (5) Dirt and grease must be kept from the system, leaving reasonably clean water.
BOILER SELECTION
Ordinarily , especially in residence heating and small installations, the information upon which the boiler is selected is very meager. This infor mation usually consists of: the heat output of radiators under normal temperatures, the kind of fuel, whether anthracite or bituminous coal, oil or gas, and in a few cases the amount of piping. Selection of a boiler upon this information is largely guesswork based upon experience, with the result that the boiler is selected large enough to deliver the required quantity of heat under even the most adverse conditions. Boilers having large output and rapid pick-up are frequently selected in preference to boiler's having more economical performance.
A proper heating boiler specification would contain the information
given in the following items:
.

2. The number of hours during which maximum hourly output would be required during heating-up period, which varies according to the use of the building in which the installation is made, usually from 1 to 4 hours, being shortest for residences and longest for buildings used only occasionally.
3. The maximum hourly continuous output for any 24-hour period, or the average output which the boiler would have to deliver during a period of continued low outside temperature.
generally necessary to make additional allowance for the following con ditions which may obtain at the time when the maximum or pick-up load occurs, (a) insufficient draft, (6) poor quality of fuel, (c) fuel bed not in good condition, (d) inferior quality of attention, (e) necessity of firing a charge of fuel that will last for a long period.
The conditions (a) to (e) inclusive, reduce the output obtainable below that' which could be obtained under good or normal conditions and necessitate an increase in normal output of boiler selected in order that when the normal output is decreased by effect of items (a) to (e) there will still be available a quantity of heat 25 per cent in excess of the radiation plus piping loss.. Coal-fired boilers therefore are usually selected with a maximum continuous output 60 to 80 pier cent in excess of heat output of radiation plus piping.
4. The kind and amount of attention available. This is least skillful and least
frequent for owner operated residence installations and generally increases in skill as
well as frequency as size of boiler increases. Local fuels and types of firing service must
be considered carefully in this connection.
5. The kind of fuel to be used, including size and characteristics.
6. Size and height of the available chimney.
For large installations the boiler output required in excess of heat loss
of radiation plus piping will be about as follows:
,

j School buildings with full recirculation of air.................................................................... 25
' Buildings with periodical heating only............................................................................... 50
j Other large buildings............................................................................................................... 25
With the information contained in items 1 to 6 at hand, definite test information could be used as a basis for selecting the right size of boiler.
OTHER FACTORS IN SELECTION OF BOILER
As it will usually be found that several boilers will meet the speci fications,. the final selection of the boiler will be effected by other con siderations as follows:
(a) dimensions of boiler, (6) height of water line, (c) durability under service, (d) convenience in firing and cleaning, (e) type of controls, (/) adaptability to changes in. fuel and kind of attention, (g) the output required during the greater part of the season.
In large installations the use of several small units instead of one larger
one will obtain greater flexibility and economy by permitting the operation
of a required number of units according to heat requirements at the
best operating efficiency.

Experience with gas-fired boilers, which are rated on B.t.u. output and can only slightly exceed the-rated output, but which require no chimney draft, has shown that a continuous output capacity of 25 per cent in excess of the normal heat loss of radiation plus piping is ample for all direct radiator installations. This would correspond to an output of 40 to 60 per cent in excess of the normal heat loss of the radiation depending upon the proportion of piping to radiation. Upon the basisof gas-fired boiler experience, a coal-fired or oil-fired boiler which could deliver a continuous average output of 25 per cent in excess of radiation and piping would be amply large for any job. This is true for an oil-fired boiler provided the known output of the combination of boiler, burner, and chimney is used. In the case of coal-fired boilers however, it is
134
For any boiler selected it is well to determine whether the rate of combustion (pounds of coal burned per square foot of grate per hour) likely to be required continuously for more than a few hours is obtainable and is low enough to prevent clinker trouble. With natural draft it is recommended that for continuous output (under favorable conditions) with a minimum of attention the following combustion rates be not exceeded:

BOILER RATINGS
There are wide differences in the ratings of heating boilers by the various manufacturers due largely to the fact that there has never been any generally accepted code upon which to base the rating of these boilers. The American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers, the National Boiler and Radiator Manufacturers Association, and others inter ested are making progress in the development of such a code.
COAL FIRED BOILER RATING
At present the word rating of coal-fired boilers may have any one of the following meanings:
1. The actual amount of equivalent direct radiator load that may be attached. It is
assumed that the boiler has sufficient reserve to compensate for piping, pick-up load
and other allowances.
'
2. The total equivalent direct radiation load plus piping load that may be attached. A boiler installed on a job with the proper amount of radiation, if selected according to this rating, will operate continuously at rating when the inside and outside tem peratures are those for which the heat loss of building was figured. It is assumed that the boiler has sufficient reserve for pick-up load.
3. The output in B.t.u. at the boiler outlet when burning per hour certain percentage
of the total fuel that can be fired at one time. The amount of fuel that can be fired at
one time is determined by computation from firebox'dimensions or by laboratory test.
The output obtainable must be found by test. This method of rating has been popular
for boilers burning anthracite in sizes larger than chestnut. When the length of time
between successive firings is given the boiler is said to be rated upon that firing period,
e.g. If boiler has to be fired every, eight hours when delivering its rated output, the
boiler is rated on an 8 hour firing period.
4; The output in B.t.u. that can be obtained with a good grade of anthracite or bituminous coal with attention limited according to directions specified by the manu facturer. With proper specifications regarding fuels, firing, attention and operation, this method of rating is useful in that it is applicable to all types of fuels.
5. The output obtained when burning a specified fuel at a specified rate of combustion.
The output must be found by test when burning the fuels selected as standard. The
rate at which the fuel is burned is based upon experience and is varied according to an
arbitrary rule according to kind of fuel and size of grate. The output for fuels other
than standard is found by multiplying the output for standard fuel by a correction
factor.
`
6. The output obtained when the temperature of gases leaving the boiler is not over a specified degree and the carbon dioxide is above a certain minimum.
This method has been suggested but has not been used.
7. The output obtained by multiplying the surface with which the fire and gases
come in contact by the average amount of heat which a square foot of surface will
deliver to the water in the boiler.
.
The heat transmitted per square foot of surface and used in this method of rating . is established arbitrarily. The boiler is said to be rated on its heating surface,
8. A method sometimes used for estimating the approximate reasonable output of a boiler where more accurate and reliable test data are not available, is as follows:
The output in B.t.u. is obtained by multiplying together the square feet of grate r surface by an assumed rate of combustion (in lb. of coal per sq. ft. of grate per hour) .. by the B.t.u. value of the fuel (per lb.) by the efficiency of the boiler (at the load and . rate of combustion assumed).
This gives an approximate rating. For data on rates of combustion, see Table 1. Also Chapter VI on "Chimneys" and Chapter VII on "Mechanical Draft." Ordinary heating boiler efficiencies for normal rate of combustion may vary from 55 to 75 per cent.
136
V. Chapter --Heating Boilers '
GAS FIRED BOILER RATING
The rating of gas boilers in contrast to coal boilers is a comparatively
simple matter. The following conditions of rating established by the
American Gas Association have been generally accepted:
.
1. The boiler must deliver rated output without chimney connection.
2. There must be no carbon monoxide formed when the gas pressure in service line
is normal, 50 per cent below normal, or 50 per cent above normal.
1
3. The boiler must have an efficiency of at least 75 per cent at rated output.
The maximum B.t.u. input or gas that can be burned may be deter mined by the manufacturer but is checked by the American Gas Associa tion Laboratory before being approved. An arbitrary efficiency of 80 per cent is assumed in computing the output rating from the B.t.u. input.
The actual B.t.u. delivered by any gas boiler when burning gas at the rated B.t.u. input will vary from the A. G. A. output rating in the direct? proportion of-the boilers actual efficiency with the gas'being burned to 80 per cent.
RATINGS OF BOILERS FOR OIL FUEL
The output of a boiler with oil fuel will depend upon the combined efficiency of the boiler and burner and the quantity of oil that can be properly burned within the space provided in the boiler.
Oil burner ratings in use at present have been obtained either from test with typical burners or have been obtained by multiplying the coal rating by a constant.
Coal boilers converted to oil may have as high or a higher rating and as high or higher efficiency than with coal.
SIZE, RATING AND CAPACITY OF A BOILER
The three words are sometimes used indiscriminately to designate any one of the three things for which they should be used;
Size may be: the physical dimensions of all or part of the boiler, the maximum output, or the manufacturers rating. This word has been used loosely so long that it would be difficult to limit it to one meaning.
Rating usually means the boiler output under certain conditions. It is important that the conditions be known in order to give rating a definite meaning.
Capacity is another word for output. It may be stated in terms of pounds of steam delivered, square feet of standard radiation supplied with heat, or B.t.u. delivered. The word output will convey the meaning better than capacity.
TYPES OF BOILERS
Owing to the changes which have been made in boiler design within the last six- or seven years, it is no longer correct to draw general con clusions regarding the different types of boilers such as cast-iron sectional, steel fire-tube and steel water-tube boilers.'
Broadly speaking, three types of heating boilers are commonly used.
137
American Society' of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
Sectional boilers, may be of the rectangular pattern with vertical sec tions, or of the round pattern with horizontal sections. They are usually constructed of cast iron; and on account of their sectional construction and the usual practice of being shipped knocked down and assembled on the job, they are easily handled through small openings at any stage of construction. Their design also facilitates the removal and replacing of damaged parts as well as an increase or decrease in capacity by the addition or removal of sections.
Cast-iron boilers are limited to operating pressures of 15 lb. steam or 30 lb. water, excepting when used for hot-water supply, in which case the boilers are built for operation at city pressure and are tested at pres sures two and one-half times the operating pressure.
The fire-tube boiler, which may be of the horizontal tubular brick set pattern, the horizontal tubular firebox pattern (with or without supple mentary brick setting), the vertical tubular brick set pattern or the vertical tubular firebox pattern.
Fire-tube steel boilers may be built for high or low pressure, but when
used for heating with consequent usual low pressure operation, they are generally built according to the A. S. M. E. Steel Plate heating boiler
code which limits working pressure to 15 lb. per sq. in. for steam boilers
or 250 deg. fahr. or 160 lb. per sq. in. for water boilers. In construction
they may be riveted or welded. Where higher operating pressures (e.g.
up to 100 lb. per sq. in.) are required, boilers of the same dimensions as low pressure boilers can be obtained at a comparatively small increase
in cost.
Low pressure operation is favored because of greater possible operating
economy due to lower temperature of the water in the boiler. The large
water content provide for heat storage capacity and minimized water
line fluctuation under sudden variations in load. Chimney heights for
the larger sizes of fire-tube boilers as specified by the manufacturer are generally lower than for corresponding sizes of cast-iron boilers.
The water-tube boiler, which may be of the horizontal brick set pattern
with either horizontal or cross drums, the vertical brick set pattern, the
bent or inclined tube brick set pattern, or the self-contained firebox
pattern with any one of the above arrangements of tubes.
Water-tube boilers are usually constructed with steel or iron tubes, steel
drums and either steel, cast steel or cast-iron headers. They heat up
and steam rapidly and also lose their heat and steam pressure quickly.
The water and steam spaces are moderate and their performance on
rapid and wide variations of load is accordingly responsive.
.
The principal heating surface consisting of tubes with the water inside
and the heated gases outside, is easy to clean from the inside with hy
draulic or pneumatic tube cleaners and from the outside with steam or'
air jet soot blowers, although with highly scaling waters are to be avoided
since the scale formation on the inside of the small tube may be com
paratively rapid.
The water line is generally high and considerable head room is required.
On account of being constructed with drums and banks of tubes they

Chapter V--Heating Boilers
may be shipped knocked down and assembled on the job, thus passing through small openings at any stage of the construction.
INSTALLING AND PREPARING BOILER EOR SERVICE
Manufacturers directions should always be read before assembly or
installation of any boiler is begun even if the contractor is familiar with
the boiler. All joints requiring boiler putty or cement which cannot be
reached after assembly is complete must be carefully finished as assembly
progresses as even small openings permitting short circuiting of gases
hardly ever fill up during operation.
.
Nuts or tie rods of sectional cast-iron boilers must always be loosened about one thread to allow for expansion of boiler when hot. The nuts should be just a little more than hand-tight when the boiler is at its operating temperature.
Flow piping connections should be full size of manufacturers outlet and should preferably be vertical from outlets to a height of 2 or 3 ft. above boiler wherever possible. Vertical piping and low outlet velocity are of great value in keeping the steam dry especially if the boiler accu mulates grease and oil from the system. Steam velocities of 20 to 25 ft. per second are recommended for the maximum continuous boiler output. Where optional outlets are provided, those on steam boilers should be in the least active parts, whereas, those on water boilers should be on the most active parts.
If lack of head room necessitates a low vertical connection from boiler to steam main, it is advisable to make a drip connection to the return at first change of direction of the main.
Recommended methods of connecting piping to steam boilers are shown in Chapter III, Steam Heating Systems and Piping.
CLEANING BOILERS
Grease serves as a carrier for sand and dirt in the system with the result that a scum of fine particles and grease accumulates on the surface of the water in the boiler while heavier particles settle to the bottom of the boiler or remain in suspension. The scum is best removed through an outlet at the surface of the water: The method given below has been used successfully.
Connect a pipe (full size of opening at boiler) from the surface blow-off
tapping or opening nearest surface to a convenient drain. Raise water
level in boiler to bottom of blow-off. Build a brisk fire in-the boiler and
raise pressure between 5 and 10 lb. Open valve and keep it open as long
as pressure remains. Close valve when necessary to enable boiler to build
up pressure, then open and proceed as before. Keep water level at the
bottom of the blow-off by feeding fresh water. Continue blowing until
water in blow-off is clean. The fire should then be removed and the
water drained preferably under steam pressure from the bottom of boiler
to' remove heavy particles and material in suspension.
'
Where appreciable dirt and grease are present it is advisable to add soda ah to the water in the boiler before boiling out.
Refill boiler with water to proper level before starting fire.
. 139
-
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
On new jobs it is advisable wherever possible to drain condensation directly to sewer during first week of operation, thereby preventing passage of grease and dirt to the boiler from the system. The length of time fresh water should be fed to the boiler will depend somewhat on the amount of scale forming material in the water, as it would be objectionable to accumulate scale on the heating surfaces.
PROTECTION OF BOILERS
The following precautions should be taken in all installations to prevent _
damage to the boiler:
"
1. Proper and convenient drainage connections for use if boiler is not in operation during freezing weather should be provided.
2. Strains on boiler due to movement of piping during expansion should be prevented by suitable anchoring of piping and proper provision for pipe expansion.
3. Direct impingement of intense local heat upon any part of surface should be avoided by protecting surface with fire brick or other insulating material.
4. Condensation must flow back to boiler as rapidly and uniformly as possible. Return connections should prevent water from backing out of boiler.
5. Low water cut-off devices which shut off the source of heat if the water in boiler falls below a safe level are recommended for boilers fired with oil or gas.
6. In single boiler installations the steam and return main should be free of valves.

SMOKE BREECHING AND CHIMNEY CONNECTIONS
Connections from boiler outlet to chimney should be air-tight and as short and direct as possible, preference being given to long radius and 45 deg. instead of 90 deg. bends. The bend at entrance to chimney should not project beyond inside of chimney. Where a battery of boilers , are connected into a breeching each boiler should be provided with a tight damper. Good connections made to a good chimney will usually result in a rapid response by boiler to demands for heat.

COMPLETING INSTALLATION
In addition to the usual examination to insure that all work is done in a workmanlike manner and that the system is free of leaks, a check should , be made on the following:
1. Whether boiler has sufficient draft to burn the amount of fuel which would be .
required during pick-iip period in cold weather.
.
2. That boiler operates with a steady water line and condensation returns rapidly
to boiler.
" 3. That rods and levers of pressure or temperature control apparatus are adjusted to proper length.
4. That any safety equipment used works properly.

BOILER TROUBLES
." ^
'
A complaint regarding boiler operation will generally be found to be
one of the following:
:
1. The boiler fails to deliver enough heal. The cause of this condition may be: (a) poor draft, (b) poor fuel, (c) inferior, attention or firing, (d) boiler too small, () improper
140
' Chapter V--Heating Boilers
piping, (/) improper arrangement of sections, (g) heating surfaces may be covered with soot and (A) insufficient radiation installed.
2. The water line is unsteady. The cause of this condition may be: (a) grease and
dirt in boiler, (b) water column connected to a very active section and therefore may not be showing actual water level in boiler, (c) boiler operating at excessive; output.
3. Water disappears from gage glass. This may be caused by: (a) priming due to grease and dirt in boiler, (6) too great pressure difference between supply and return piping causing water to back into return, (c) valve closed in return line, (d) connection of bottom of water column into a very active section or thin waterway, (e) improper connections between boilers in battery permitting boiler with excess pressure to push water into boiler with lower pressure.
4. Boiler causes water to be carried into steam main. This may be caused by : (a) grease
and dirt in boiler, (b) insufficient steam dome or too small steam liberating area, (e) outlet
connections of too small area, (d) excessive rate of output, (e) water level carried higher
than specified.
-
5. Boiler is slow in response to operation of dampers. This may be due to: (a) poor draft due to air leaks into chimney or breeching, (ft) inferior fuel, (c) inferior attention, (d) accumulation of clinker on grate, () boiler too small for the load.
6. Boiler requires too frequent cleaning of flues. This may be due to: (a) poor draft, (6) smoky combustion, (c) too low a rate of combustion, (d) too much excess air in firebox causing chilling of gases.
7. Boiler smokes throughfire door. This may be due to: (o) defective draft in chimney
or incorrect setting of dampers, (ft) air leaks into boiler of breeching, (c) gas outlet
from firebox plugged with fuel, (d) dirty or clogged flues.
:
If boiler trouble is attributed to oil and dirt in boiler one of the fol lowing tests will determine whether cleaning of boiler is necessary:
1. Draw off a small quantity of water from the try-cock near the water line. Boil this water in a pan and at the same time boil an equal quantity of water such as fed to boiler in another pan (of same size if available.) A marked difference in liberation of steam from the surface will indicate that the boiler should be cleaned.
2. After building a pressure in the boiler of 2 to 5 lb. open safety valve by means of a wire attached to lifting lever. Keep valve open for one minute. If water is discharged with the steam after the first rush of steam and water, it can safely be assumed that the boiler should be cleaned.
OPERATING BOILERS WITH VARIOUS FUELS
To keep the fuel bed in proper condition;, the following general rules should be observed: .
1. Remove ash from fuel bed by shaking the grates whenever fresh fuel is fired. This removes ash from the fire; enables the air to reach the fuel and does away with the formation of clinker (which is melted ash).
2. Supply the boiler with a deep bed of fuel. Nothing is gained by attempting to fire a small amount of fuel. A deep bed of fuel secures the most economical results.
3. Remove ash from ashpit at least once daily. Never allow ash to accumulate up to the grates. If the ash prevents the air from passing through, the grate bars will burn out and much clinker trouble will be experienced.
^ USE OF SECONDARY AIR
Secondary or auxiliary air. (air supplied over the fuel bed), should be provided whenever it increases the temperature in the firebox. After firing considerable combustible gas rises from any fuel and enough air for its combustion cannot be supplied through the fuel bed, but must be provided by other means, usually through a slide damper in the fire door.
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
Too much secondary air will cool these gases below the ignition point,
and prove harmful rather than beneficial.
.
The amount of secondary air required depends on so many variables, that it is impossible to make a set of rules to fit all cases.
The following suggestions will be helpful: (a) In cold weather, with high combustion rates, the secondary air damper should be half open all the time, (b) In very mild weather with a very low combustion rate, the secondary air damper should be closed all the time, .(e) For temperature between very mild and very cold, the secondary air damper should be in an intermediate position. (d) For ordinary house operation, secondary air is needed after each firing, for about one hour.
Secondary air, when'used with bituminous coal, serves the purpose of preventing smoke as well as increasing the efficiency by burning the gas escaping from the fuel bed. As a guide to the amount of secondary air required, the user should supply just enough secondary air to eliminate the smoke.
BURNING VARIOUS TYPES OF FUEL
It is advantageous to be able to burn several types of fuel. The boiler may be designed for one particular type of fuel, but a knowledge of the method of handling other fuels often makes it possible to obtain satis factory results with other available fuels.
Anthracite
' Anthracite coal has a heat value of from 11,600 to 13,500 B.t.u. per pound and ash content of from 10 to 20 per cent.
An anthracite fire should never be poked as this serves to bring ash to the surface of the fuel bed where it melts into clinker.
Grate size is suitable for large grates and a fuel depth of 20 in. or more. The air spaces are large; the amount of surface in contact with the air is small, and consequently com bustion is slow. Lumps of rock or slate, being large, may cause trouble in shaking of the grate. On grates, 25 in. and under, the fire is likely to go out easily with this fuel, unless mixed with small coal for reducing the air spaces.
Egg size is suitable for large firepots (grates 25 in. and over) if the fuel can be fired at least 20 in. deep. The air spaces between the pieces of coal are large and combustion is slower than with the next smaller size, although more rapid than with grate coal. This coal should be clean and high in calorific value. The rock and slate pieces may be large enough to cause some trouble in shaking the grate. For best results this coal should be fired deep. The grate should be shaken before every firing. An anthracite fire should never be poked as this only brings ash to the surface of the fuel bed where it melts into clinker.
Stove size coal is the popular size of anthracite'fuel for most sizes of heating boilers. It is small enough to burn well on grates 17 in. and above, but large enough so that the draft loss through the fuel bed is not too great. The refuse in the coal is .not large enough to cause any trouble in shaking of the grates. About the only instructions needed for burning this type of fuel are: The grate should be shaken before each firing; the fire should never be poked from the top; the fuel should be fired deep and uniformly.
Chestnut size coal is in demand for firepots up to 20 in., and especially those in which the fuel cannot be fired over 18 in. deep. The percentage of ash is higher than in stove coal, but the pieces of rock and slate are small and do not interfere with the shaking of the grates. .
Pea size coal is often an economical fuel to burn. It is low in price. When carefully fired pea coal can be burned on regular grates. It is well to have a small amount of a larger fuel on hand when building new fires, or when filling holes in the fuei bed. Care should be taken to shake the grates only until the first bright coals begin to fall through the grates. The fuel bed, after a new fire has been built, should be built up by addition
142
Chapter V--Heating Boilers
of small charges until at least level with the sill of the fire door. This keeps a bed of ignited coal in readiness when a sudden demand for heat is made on the boiler. When firing, the bright fuel should either be pulled forward or pushed to the back of the firepot, leaving a hollow in which to fife the fresh fuel and leaving a portion of the glowing coal exposed, to ignite the gases rising from the fuel, otherwise a gas explosion may occur.
This fuel requires a strong draft and therefore the best results will generally be obtained by keeping the choke damper open, the cold-air check closed and controlling the fire by means of the air-inlet damper only.
Buckwheat size coal requires the same type of attention as pea size. The smaller size of the fuel makes it more difficult to burn on ordinary grates. Even greater care must be taken in shaking than with pea coal, lest the fuel run through the grate. A good draft is required and consequently the fire is best controlled by the air-inlet damper only. Where frequent attention can be given and where, there is not a big heat demand on the boiler, this fuel is frequently burned without the aid of any special equipment.
In general it will be found more satisfactory with buckwheat coal to keep a uniform heat output and consequently to keep the system warm all the time, rather than to allow the system to cool off at times and then to attempt to burn the fuel at a high rate while warming up. A uniform low fire will minimize the clinker formation and keep the clinker in an easily broken up condition so that it can be easily shaken through the grate.
Forced draft and special grates or retorts are frequently used with this fuel for best results. (See Chapter VII.)
Coke
Coke is a very desirable fuel and will usually give satisfaction as soon as the user learns how to control the fire. Coke ignites and burns very rapidly with less draft than an thracite. Jn order to control the air admitted to the fuel it is very important that all openings or leaks into the ashpit be tightly closed. A coke fire responds more rapidly than anthracite to the opening of the dampers. This is an advantage in warming up the system, but it also makes it necessary to watch the dampers more closely in order to prevent the fire from burning too rapidly. A deep bed of coke should always be carried. The grates should be shaken only slightly in mild weather, and should only be shaken. until the first red particles drop from grates in cold weather. Since coke only weighs about half as much as anthracite per cubic foot, and therefore only about half as much can be put in the firepot, it will be necessary to fire oftener, but during the greater part of the heating season this will not be an item of importance. The best size of coke for general use will be that which passes over a I in. screen and through a 13^2 in. screen for small firepots where the fuel depth is not over 20 in. For large firepots where the fuel can be fired over 20 in. deep, coke which passes over a 1 in. screen and through a 3 in. screen will be most satisfactory. Large sizes of coke should either be mixed with fine sizes or should be broken up before using. '
Kinds of Bituminous Coat
Solid fuels, excepting anthracite and coke, can be classified, from the standpoint of the user, into four types, as follows: (o) caking bituminous coal, (6) non-caking bituminous coal, (c) semi-bituminous coal and (d) lignite.
The characteristics of these coals are as follows:
Bituminous coal generally has a high heat value (from 12,000 to 14,500 B.t.u. per pound) and a percentage of ash of 5 to 15 per cent.
Caking coal forms a cake or crust over the fire as soon as heated. This crust, when
broken up, gives a fire that burns like coke. Some types of caking coal are very easily
broken up^even in handling, and as a result are very fine when fired, while others are
quite strong so that the percentage of lumps is high. The heat value of a fine coal may
be even greater, than the heat value of the coal containing some lumps, but for general
operation, the coal containing the larger percentage of lumps will be most satisfactory.
A fine coal forms a blanket over the fire, tending to reduce the rate of combustion and
also to increase the loss due to falling of coal through the grate, whereas a coal with a
larger percentage of lumps allows the air to pass through the fuel bed more easily and also
prevents, to a certain degree,.the formation of a solid crust such as produced by the fine
coal.
'
The non-caking coal does not form a coke or crust when heated, but burns practically without attention because the air can pass freely through the fuel bed. This coal is best
143
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
adapted to use when it contains a large percentage of lumps or when it is uniformly sized, since the fine coal will cause a considerable loss by falling through the grates.
Semubitumincus coal, because it has only a small percentage of smoke forming gaseous matter, is easily burned without smoke and is an excellent fuel. As a rule it is very easily broken up in handling and may therefore be quite fine. This coal forms a cake like caking soft coal and consequently requires the same attention.
If the coal is very fine so that a considerable percentage falls through the grate it will be advantageous to wet the coal before firing, in order to hold the fuel particles together until it cakes.
Lignite
Lignite is a free burning coal containing a high percentage of volatile matter in addi tion to a high percentage of moisture. The high percentage of moisture prevents easy ignition and causes breaking of the coal, when heated, into fine particles which may fall through the grate. For general use this coal is most satisfactory if broken into lumps of 3 in. size soon after mining and dried by exposure to the air. The ash from lignite resembles wood ash, does not clinker and generally falls through grate without shaking. Grates with small air spaces, especially those preventing falling of fuel into ashpit, are preferred for lignite.
HOW TO FIRE BITUMINOUS COAL
Bituminous coal should never be fired over the entire fuel bed at one time. A portion
of the glowing fuel should always be left exposed to ignite the gases leaving the fresh
charge.
.
Air should be admitted over the fire through the special secondary air device, or the slide in fire door or by opening the fire door slightly. If the quantity of air admitted is too great the gases will be cooled below ignition temperature and will fail to burn. The fireman can best judge the quantity of air to admit by noting when the air supplied is just sufficient to make the gases burn rapidly and smokelessly above the fuel bed.
The red fuel in the firebox, before firing, excepting for a shallow layer of coke on the grate, should be pushed to one side or forward or backward to form a hollow in which to fire fresh fuel. (Some manufacturers recommend that all red fuel be pushed to rear of. firebox and that the fresh fuel be fired directly on the grate and allowed to ignite.from the top. The object of this is to reduce the early rapid distillation of gases and to reduce the quantity of secondary air required for smokeless combustion.)
It is well to have the bright fuel in the firebox so placed that the gases from the freshly
fired fuel, mixed with the air over the fuel bed, pass over the bed of bright fuel on the way
to the flues. The bed of bright fuel then supplies the heat to raise the mixture of air and
gas to the ignition temperature, thereby causing the gaseous matter to burn and pre
venting the formation of smoke.
,
The fuel bed should be carried as deep as the size of fuel will permit in order to have as much coked fuel as possible for pushing to the rear of the firebox at the time of firing^ A deep fuel bed obtaids the longest firing intervals.
If coal is of the caking kind the fresh charge will fuse into one solid mass which can be
broken up with the stoking bar and levelled from 20 minutes'to one hour after firing,
depending on the temperature of the firebox. Care should be exercised when stoking
not to bring the bar up to the surface of the fuel as this will tend to bring ash into the
high temperature zone at the top of the fire, where it will melt and form clinker. The
stoking bar should be kept as near the grate as possible and should be raised only enough
to break up the fuel. With fuels requiring stoking it may not be necessary .to shake the
grates as the ash is usually dislodged during stoking.
. ..
The output obtained from any boiler with soft coal will usually exceed that obtainable with anthracite since soft coal burns more rapidly than hard coal and with less draft. Soft coal however will require quite frequent attention to fuel bed because it burns unevenly, even though the fuel bed is level, forming holes in the fire which admit too much air, chilling the gases over the fuel bed and reducing the available draft.
.
.
PREPARING FOR PICK-UP LOAD
The period of maximum heat demand should be anticipated in order that ash and clinker can be removed and enough fuel fired to have a deep
144
Chapter V--Heating Boilers
fuel bed well ignited at the beginning of this period. This is even more important with anthracite than with bituminous due to the slower igni
tion of the former.
.. In extremely cold weather, which occurs at most only during the few days per season, it is advisable, if the reserve output of the boiler is small, to keep the room temperature normal continuously to eliminate the peak demand due to pick-up of temperature.
CLEANING FLUES
All boilers are provided with flue clean-out openings through which the heating surface can be reached by means of brushes or scrapers. Flues of solid fuel boilers should be cleaned often to keep surface free of soot or ash. Gas-boiler flues and burners should be thoroughly cleaned once a year. Oil-burning boiler flues should be examined periodically to determine when cleaning is necessary.
CARE OF HEATING BOILERS WHEN NOT IN USE
During summer months more damage is frequently done to heating boilers than during the period of operation. This is due chiefly to acid formed by deposits on the surface of sulphur from the fuel and the moisture in the cellar air during summer. At the end of the heating season the following precautions should be taken:
1. All heating surfaces should be thoroughly cleaned, steel boiler being given a coating
of lubricating oil.
.
2. All machined surfaces should be coated with oil or grease.
3. Connections to chimney should be thoroughly cleaned and in case of small boilers the pipe should be placed in a dry place after cleaning.
4. If there is much moisture in the boiler room, it is advisable to drain the boiler . to prevent condensation of moisture on surface when boiler temperature is lower than the dew-point. In steel boilers kerosene poured on surface of water will form a protecting film over the inside surface as the water is drained out. .
5. When the boiler room is comparatively dry, in the case of-cast-iron boilers, the water level should be raised into the steam riser to exclude air from the Boiler.
A hot-water system is usually left filled to the expansion tank.
6. The grates and ashpit should be thoroughly cleaned.
Enough water only should be added to heating boilers to keep the level, when water is heated, at the height established by the manufac turer. Raising the water to a higher level may result in carrying of moisture with the steam. Water should not be used or allowed to be lost by leakage from heating systems as the fresh water required to make up the loss may introduce scale forming or corrosive matter.
HOT WATER SUPPLY BOILERS
Boilers for hot-water supply are classified as direct if the water heated passes through the boiler and as indirect if the water heated does not come in contact with the water or steam in the boiler.
Direct heaters are built to operate at the pressures found in city supply mains and are tested at pressures from 200 to 300 lb per square inch. The life of direct heaters depends on corroding properties of the water
145
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
supplied and the amount of water passed through the heater. If water temperatures are maintained below 140 deg. the life of the heater will be much longer than if higher temperatures are used owing to decreased scale formation and minimized corrosion below 140 deg. Direct water heaters in some cases are designed to burn refuse and garbage.
Indirect heaters generally consist of a steam boiler in connection with a coil or tube'heater which transmits the heat in the steam to the water. This type of installation costs more than a direct system but has the following advantages:
1. The boiler operates at low-pressure. Water hammer and cold water shocks are not transmitted to the boiler.
2. The boiler is protected from scale and corrosion.
3. The scale is formed in the heat exchanger in which the parts to which the scale is attached can be cleaned or replaced. The accumulation of scale does not effect efficiency although it will effect the capacity of the heat exchanger.
4. No pounding occurs in tank due to formation of steam, especially if the steam supply to the heater is under automatic control.
5. Discoloration of water may be prevented if water supply only comes in contact with non-ferrous metal.
SELECTION OF HOT WATER SUPPLY BOILERS
The size of hot-water supply boiler selected is based upon: the quantity of water used in 24 hours, the temperature rise, the peak load, the dura-; tion of peak load, and the size of storage tank used. A boiler capable of delivering per hour 1/24 of the 24-hour demand operating continuously would be sufficiently large, but it is good practice to provide 20 per cent reserve capacity in the boiler by selecting a boiler-which can deliver per hour 1/20 of the 24-hour demand. The storage tank should be of such size that the water stored during off peak hours, plus the hourly output of the heater will equal the demand during the period of peak load.
If the storage tank is already installed and is too small, a larger boiler must be used, the boiler having such capacity that the stored water plus the hourly heat output of the boiler equals the demand during the peak
period.
'
Control- of tank temperature by means of tank thermostat and means for operating dampers, of regulating gas or oil supply is discussed- in Chapter XVI on Automatic Heat Control.
For determination of hot-water supply requirements the reader is
referred to Chapter. XX on Water Supply Systems and Piping.
Hot-water supply boilers are usually rated: in gallons of water heated through a specified temperature rise within a given time. It is important to determine the temperature rise and the time required as there is con siderable variation in the values as used by different manufacturers.

CHIMNEYS
Functions of the Chimney; Draft, Friction Losses. Chimneys for Heating Boilers. Warm* Air Furnaces, Oil Burners. Gas Appliances, Details of Construction, Underwriters' Rules.
THE functions of a chimney are, generally speaking, twofold: (1) to produce the required draft, (2) to carry off the products of combus tion and discharge them so as not to become a nuisance. Where natural draft is employed the required draft is made up of: (a) that required to overcome the friction and to produce the velocity of the air at entrance to the furnace, (b) plus that necessary to force the air through the fuel bed (if any), (c) plus that necessary to produce the velocity and to overcome the friction of the products of combustion in their passage through the boiler, (d) plus that necessary to produce the velocity and to overcome the friction of the products of combustion in their passage through the breeching, from the boiler to the chimney, (e) plus that necessary to produce the velocity and to overcome the friction of the products of combustion in their passage through the chimney itself.
Where forced draft is employed factors (a) and (A), of the required draft, are usually taken care of by the forced draft apparatus, leaving, the factors (c), (d) and (e) only, to be taken care of by the chimney.
Where induced draft is employed the entire draft required is generally taken care of by the induced draft apparatus'.
In the case of either forced or induced draft any part of the required draft may be taken care of by the chimney and the remainder by the apparatus, but the exact conditions to be met in this respect should be known and the chimney should be proportioned accordingly.
This combination of natural and mechanical draft is frequently used, especially where loads are quite irregular, so that the plant may be run on natural draft during light loads and on mechanical draft during peak loads, only. This combination also affords a factor of safety against breakdpwns in the mechanical draft equipment, since at least a partial load may always be carried on natural draft.
Draft measurement is usually in inches of water by which is meant the static head of water (in inches) corresponding to the difference in pressure between any point in the boiler, breeching or chimney, at which the draft is being measured, and the pressure of the surrounding atmosphere. One inch of draft is equivalent to 5.2 lb. per square foot of pressure difference.
The theoretical draft of a chimney is the hypothetical draft that would be produced if the chimney were completely heated and filled with the
Material for this Chapter prepared-especially for The Guide by the following committee: George A. Orrok, chairman; E. K. Campbell. J. R. McColI and L. W. Millis.
147

normal gases of combustion, at the average temperature for which the chimney was designed, and then the flow of these gases was suddenly stopped. This theoretical draft can never be attained in practice, but
it is the basis of all scientific chimney design. The general formula for the theoretical draft of a chimney, with all
observable factors taken into account, is expressed by equation (1).
Dt- = 6A3HPa
, (l)
where
Dt - theoretical draft in inches of water. H = height of the chimney above grate bars, in feet. Po = pressure of the atmosphere in pounds per square inch. W0 -- weight of air (at 32 deg. fahr.) in pounds per cubic foot, , Wg ~ weight of the flue gas (at 32 deg. fahr.) in pounds per cubic foot.
T0 -- absolute temperature of the air in deg. fahr. Tc = average, absolute temperature of the gases in the chimney in deg. fahr.
For an atmospheric pressure of 14.7 lb. and a weight of air equal to the weight of the flue gaseb (at 32 deg. fahr.) of 0.08071 lb. per cubic foot
this formula reduces to
Dn = 7.63 a-*)
(2)
where
Da = the normal theoretical draft per foot of height of chimney under usual atmos pheric conditions at sea level.
For a temperature of 0 deg. fahr. outside and an average temperature of 600 deg. fahr. in the chirririey this reduces to 0.0094 in. of draft per
foot of chimney height.

The correction factor for changes in atmospheric pressure, ranges from 68 per cent at 10 lb. pressure to 100 per cent at 14.7 lb. pressure, in direct proportions to the pressure.
The corrections for different densities of flue gas are shown in Table T.
The available draft of a chimney is the theoretical draft after deducting the various losses back to the point of reference, such as at the base of the chimney or the furnace of the boiler. Ordinarily the point at which the available draft is measured is in the furnace directly above the fuel bed.
The losses which must be deducted from the theoretical draft to obtain the available draft at this point are as follows: (1) the velocity and friction losses in the chimney, (2) the velocity and friction losses in the breeching and (3) the velocity and friction losses in the boiler.
The loss due to velocity of the flue gases in the chimney is expressed by equation (3).

Dev = loss of draft due to velocity in the chimney. Vc = velocity of the chimney gases in feet per second. Q = cubic feet of gas flowing per second. D = diameter of a circular chimney in feet. W = weight of gases flowing in pounds per second.
All for a flue gas and air weight of 0.08071 lb. per cubic foot (at 32 deg. fahr.) and
an atmospheric pressure of 14.7 lb.

The correction factor for different weights; of flue gas run from 100 per cent at a weight of 0.08071 lb. per cubic foot (at 32 deg. fahr.) to 109 per cent at a weight of 0.088 lb. per cubic foot in direct proportion to the ' flue gas weight.
Equation (3) gives the loss due to velocity in the chimney in terms of the velocity, the quantity and the weight of the gases flowing, so that this loss may be figured from either of these factors, which may be known.
The loss of draft due to the friction of the gases in the chimney is expressed by equation (4).

loss is approximately 62 per cent of that for circular section of a diameter equal to the width of the square when handling the same weight of gases per second.

The loss of draft in the turns of the breeching, including one right
angle turn where the gases pass from the boiler to the breeching and
another where they pass from the breeching to the chimney, is expressed
in inches of water per right angle turn by equation (6).
Dbt = 0.0013 W2 TU
(6)
where
A = area of breeching in square feet.
The loss of draft through the boilers varies very materially with the size and type of boiler, number of passes, sizes of tubes, etc., but may be
taken from Table 2.
Table 2. Average Friction Loss of Flue Gases in Passing Through Boilers
.Psa Cknt Ratoto Loss Ins., Water

300 0.7 to 1.9
By use of Tables 1 and 2 and equations (1) to (6) inclusive, the theo- , retical draft and the available draft of- any chimney may be calculated
under any given set of conditions, . The quantity of gases to be handled is quite variable, depending upon
the fuel and the proportion of air used. The theoretical amount of air required per pound of coal is approxi-.
mately 12 lb. Fifty per cent excess air is generally allowed, which means that 19 lb. of flue gas may be used per pound of coal burned. The pounds of coal burned per horsepower developed will depend upon the efficiency of the boiler plant but will usually fall between four and five.
The horsepower rating of a chimney is usually a fallacy, except for the smaller plants operating under standard conditions for which the horse power ratings of tfie chimney.may have been computed. The horsepower capacity of a chimney depends not only upon the many variables already referred to, but also upon the efficiency of the boiler plant, the fuel used and the rate, of combustion required to develop the required output.
For instance a chimney which would produce 1 in. of available draft under a load of 100 hp: in a plant using 4 lb. of coal per horsepower wittf*
150
Chapter VI--Chimneys
a combustion rate of 30 lb. of anthracite pea coal per square foot of
grate, would prove entirely inadequate for a 100 hp. load on a boiler plant
using 5 lb. of No. 3 buckwheat coal per horsepower at the same combus
tion rate.
.
While as can readily be seen this method of proportioning chimneys according to horsepower is very approximate, it is frequently used with a fair degree of safety for small plants operating under ordinary conditions.
Low-pressure heating plant chimneys of moderate capacities may be taken from Table 3 or the curves in Fig. 1 with very satisfactory results.
According to their height, heating plant chimneys are divided into three classes, the erratic, uncertain and reliable. Chimneys less than 36 ft. high are erratic in their action. The head produced by such a low height
Fig. 1. Chart for Determining Chimney Size
Note t.--It is impossible to make a rule for chimney dimensions which would apply to ail boilers but it will be found that in general all heating boilers when burning any coal except smallest sizes will deliver
more than the output shown at the bottom of the chart, Fig. 1, with the corresponding chimney dimensions, during the period when the boiler is likely to be in operation.
Note t.--It is recommended that the manufacturer of the boiler be consulted in the case of exceptional boilers or where chimney dimensions are less than shown on chart for.any given continuous output.
Note-S.--For battery installations the area of chimney is generally taken'two-thirds to three-fourths the sum of the areas required for the same number of single boilers.' The height is increased 5 to 15 ft. above the single boiler chimney height in order to compensate for additional turns and damper leakage.
Note 4.--Chimneys for oil-fired boilers may usually be taken 75 per cent of height and area'of chimney
for same output with solid fuel except that in cases where the possible change to coal is contemplated the
chimneys should be selected as for solid fuel.
.
Note 6.--For gas-fired boilers the chimney dimensions may be selected from Fig. 1 but do not have
to supply draft to move the products of combustion through the boiler or to supply air to the boiler. They
serve only to remove the products of combustion from the boiler room. The draft diverter supplied with all gas boilers effectively limits the draft at the boiler outlet and also prevents a reversal of direction of
flow in the chimney from effecting boiler operation.
-
is so small that the least unfavorable conditions or interference practically puts the chimney out of commission.
At best the head produced by chimneys up to 64 ft. in height is so small that the draft is frequently affected by surrounding conditions making the draft a doubtful one. Chimneys over 64 ft. in height are not usually so affected, because as a rule the chimney is designed by an

Chimneys for Oil Fuel.'--The requirements for stacks for oil fuels are
entirely different from those connected to coal-fired boilers, as there are
certain losses through the boiler proper that are eliminated. Gas tem peratures entering the stacks are lower for a given capacity, and the
volume of gas is less than with coal. The cross-sectional area of the stack
may therefore be less. In most instances this may safely be taken as

60 per cent of the area that would be furnished for.coal-fired boilers. In determining the height, care must be taken to design a stack that will give a sufficient draft for the maximum requirements of the boiler, but not more. In this way the efficiency is safeguarded, and the danger of a draft such as to pull through too large an excess of air is eliminated.

CHIMNEYS FOR GAS APPLIANCES
The burning of gas- differs from the burning of coal in that the force
which supplies the air for combustion of- the "gas comes largely from the
pressure of the gas in the supply pipe, whereas air is supplied to a bed of
burning coal by the force of the chimney draft. If, with a coal-burning
boiler, the draft is poor, or if the chimney is stopped, the fire is smothered
aiid the combustion rate reduced. Such a condition- on a gas-boiler or
furnace would interfere with the combustion of the gas, but the gas
would continue to pass to the burners and the resulting incomplete com
bustion would produce a dangerous condition. In order to prevent
incomplete combustion from insufficient draft, all gas-fired boilers and
furnaces should have a back draft diverter in the flue connection to the
chimney.
.. .
--
155
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
A study of the drawing of a typical back draft diverter will make it
plain that a stoppage in the chimney will cause the combustion products to come out into the boiler room, but there will be no interference with
the complete combustion of the gas. Another feature in the construction of the back draft diverter is that a down draft from the chimney will
have practically no effect upon the combustion of the gas, due to the
baffle deflecting the draft into the boiler room.
'
As is the case with the complete combustion of almost all fuels, the
product of combustion for gas are carbon dioxide (CO,) and water vapor with just a trace of sulphur trioxide (SO,). Sulphur usually burns to the
trioxide in the presence of an iron oxide catalyst. The volume of water
vapor in the flue products is about twice the volume of the carbon
dioxide when coke oven or natural gas is burned. Because of the large quantity of water vapor which is formed by the burning of gas, it is quite
important that all gas-fired central heating plants be connected to a chimney having a good draft. Lack of chimney draft causes stagnation
of the products of combustion in the chimney and results in the con densation of a large amount of the water vapor. A good chimney draft
draws air into the chimney through the openings in the back draft
diverter, lowers the dew-point of the mixture, and reduces the tendency
of the water vapor to condense.

A chimney for a gas-fired boiler or furnace should be constructed in accordance with the principles applicable to other boilers. Where the wall forming a smoke flue is made up of less than an 8 in. thickness of brick, concrete or stone, a burnt fire clay flue tile lining should be used. Care should be used that the lengths of flue tile meet properly with no openings at the joints. Cement mortar should be used for the entire
chimney. The accompanying table gives the minimum cross-sectional areas of
round chimneys (in square inches) for various amounts of heat supplied
to the appliance, and for various chimney heights. This is in accordance
with American Gas Association recommendations. The flue connections from a gas-fired boiler or furnace to the chimney,
should be of a non-corrosive material. In localities where the price of gas requires the use of highly efficient appliances, the material used for the flue connection not only should be resistant to the corrosion of water, but should resist the corrosiop of dilute solutions of sulphur trioxide in water. Sheet aluminum, as well as some other materials, seems to serve
this purpose very well.

Chapter VI--Chimneys
CONSTRUCTION OF CHIMNEYS
For general data on the construction of chimneys reference should be made to the Standard Ordinance for Chimney Construction of the Na tional Board of Fire Underwriters. . Briefly summarized these provisions are as follows for heating boilers and furnaces;
The construction, location, height and area of the chim ney to which a heating boiler or warm-air furnace is con nected affect the operation of the entire heating system. Most residence chimneys are built of brick and may be either lined or unlined, but in either case the walls must be air-tight and there should be only one smoke opening into the chimney. Cleanout, if provided, must be absolutely air-tight when closed.
The walls of brick chimneys shall be not less than 3% in. thick (width of a standard size brick) and shall be lined with fire-clay flue lining. Fire-clay flue linings shall be manufactured from suitable refractory clay, either natural or compounded, and shall be adapted to withstand high temperatures and the action of flue gases. They shall be of standard commercial thickness but not less than % in. All fire-day flue linings shall meet the standard specification of the Eastern Clay Products Association. The flue sections shall be set in special mortar, and shall have the joints struck smooth on the inside. The masonry shall be built around each section of lining as it is placed, and all spaces between masonry and linings shall be completely filled with mortar. No broken flue lining shall be used. Flue linings shall start at least 4 in. below the bottom of smoke-pipe intakes of flues, and shall be continued the entire heights of the ' flues and project at least 4 in. above chimney top to allow for a 2 in. projection of lining. The wash or splay shall be formed of a rich cement mortar. To improve the draft the wash surface should be concave wherever practical.
Flue lining may be omitted in brick chimneys, provided the walls of the chimneys are not less than 8 in. thick, and that the inner course shall be a refractory clay brick. All brickwork shall be laid in spread mortar, with all joints push-filled. Exposed joints both inside and outside shall be struck smooth. No plaster lining shall be permitted.
Chimneys shall extend' at least 3 ft. above flat roofs and 2 ft. above the ridges of peak roofs when such flat roofs or peaks are within 30 ft. of the chimney. The chimney shall be high enough so that the wind from any direction shall not strike the top of the chimney from an angle above the horizontal. The chimney shall be properly capped with stone, terra cotta,. concrete, cast iron, or other approved . material; but no such cap or coping shall decrease the flue area.
There shall be but one connection to the flue to which the
157
/
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
boiler or furnace smoke-pipe is attached. The boiler or furnace smoke-pipe shall be thoroughly grouted into the chimney and shall not project beyond the inner surface of the flue lining.
The size or area of flue lining or of brick flue for warm-air furnaces depends on height of chimney and capacity of heat ing system. For chimneys not less than. 35 ft. in height above grate line, the net internal dimensions of lining should be at least 7 x 11J4 in. for a total leader pipe area up to 790 sq. in. Above 790 and up to 1000 sq. in. of leader.pipe area the lining should be at least 11J x 11 in. inside. In case of brick flues not less than 35 ft. in height with no linings, the internal, dimensions should be at least; 8 x 12 in. up to 790 sq- in. of leader area, and at least 12 x 12 in. for leader capacities up to 1000 sq. in.. Chimneys under 35 ft. in height are unsatisfactory in operation and hence should be avoided.
SMOKE TEST
The chimney flue shall be subjected to a smoke test by the mason contractor in the presence of the architect or his representative, after the mortar has thoroughly hardened, .and must be smoke tight.
The method of conducting this test shall.be as follows: With a good fire in the boiler or furnace, or in the base of the chimney, put about a square yard of tar paper on the fire. As soon as smoke appears at'the top of the chimney close the top of the flue with a piece of old carpet or wet newspapers held down, by a weighted board. Keep the tar paper burning in the firepot for five minutes. The architect or his represen tative shall sign an acceptance in triplicate, stating that the chimney was tight under the above test, and shall give one copy to the mason contractor, one copy to the heating contractor and one copy to the owner.

CHAPTER VII
MECHANICAL DRAFT
Data on Grates, Forced Draft. Induced Draft, Motor Driven Blowers, Steam Driven Blowers, Steam Jets, Stokers, Duct Work.
THE subject of mechanical draft is divided into two main divisions-- forced draft and induced draft. Present day practice inclines towards forced draft for heating plants. The burning of the lower grades and the smaller sizes of coal necessitates strong drafts, which are frequently produced mechanically. The stack or chimney effect necessary to properly carry off the gases of combustion is sometimes produced by induced draft. With the type of installations considered in this chapter which relate particularly to the heating and ventilating field, forced draft installations predominate. The combination of both forced and induced draft is sometimes employed, but is usually confined to power stations where economizers, air heaters, etc. are installed.
In order to give proper recommendations for mechanical draft, some thing should be said about the grates and furnaces. Table 1 gives the various styles of grates suitable for different fuels in boiler plants men tioned in this article.

STATIONARY GRATES
Stationary grates are installed on bearing bars, and not movable except as they are lifted out of the furnace for repair or replacement. Such grates are made in a large assortment of shapes, sizes, weights and have varying percentage of air openings. They may be air cooled or water cobled, for use under natural or mechanical draft and may be used with practically all kinds of hand fired fuels. Cleaning of fires must be done through firing doors. This makes it advisable for the grates to be at the firing door level. In cleaning fires, it is necessary to "wing" or jump the ashes over the live char.
SHAKING GRATES
This type of grate is used where it is desired to accomplish the removal of the ash or fuel refuse by shaking, rocking, or a rolling motion of each grate bar unit. This operation can be performed at any time and under any fire condition and with any fuel which will not fall through the grate during the shaking process. It is essentially an open type grate with a large percentage of air opening and is used to best advantage under fuels that coke or bridge and that burn to a fine ash. Domestic sizes of anthra cite, wood refuse, hogged fuel, bagasse, lignite, run-of-mine bituminous, etc., are types of fuels suitable for burning on shaking grates.
DUMPING GRATES
The fine sizes of fuels such as the Buckwheat sizes of anthracite, mine or coal yard screenings, hard-wood sawdust and coke braize are burned to advantage on dumping grates. These fuels require keeping the fires level and adding fuel over the entire surface of the fire bed, continuing this procedure until cleaning time, i.e., until the mass of ashes and burning fuel reaches a thickness which prevents adequate supply or proper diffusion of air, or becomes too high for proper spreading.
Ash.accumulation under such firing cannot well be removed by shaking for the reason that the fire bed becomes uneven in thickness and openings large enough to permit the ash to pass through would also allow unburned fuel to pass to the ashpit. This explains the difference between shaking and dumping grates.
Dumping grates are built in sections enabling the operator to push the unburned fuel off the ash bed to another section. The accumulated ash is then dumped into the ashpit and the live char from another section is pulled over onto the clean section of the grate. After this process has been continued until all of the ashes have been dumped, the live char should be allowed to burn down before covering with fresh fuel in order to prevent the formation of clinkers on the fresh fire. Where blowers are in use or the boiler is operating under strohg natural draft, fuel should not be added to a freshly cleaned fire until the formation of ash on the surface of the grate has begun, for ash is a good diffuser of air and in addition protects the surface of the grates from overheating. The first firing should be thin and evenly spread over the entire fire bed and allowed to burn down after which successive firings can be made heavier.
160
VII--Chapter
Mechanical Draft
This will form a formidable ash foundation after which it is practically
impossible to form a hard clinker, even though fuels with very low fusing
ash are used.
&
MECHANICAL STOKERS
Three types of stokers are commonly used, namely chain-grate, under feed and over-feed type. Their use permits a uniform fuel supply, efficient combustion, boiler operation at higher rating and the effectual meeting of peak loads, Either forced or induced draft is successful with chain grate stokers Which are designed primarily for the use of bituminous coal particularly the free burning and clinkering types. Where forced draft is used, air is delivered at different pressures under the grate, the control being accomplished by dampers, to suit the grade of fuel and the firing -rate. At the front the pressure will not exceed 2 in. water gage and will decrease toward the rear as the fuel bed gets thinner. .
There are adaptations of self-feeding devices especially adaptable to the smaller heating plants which carry forced draft apparatus, controlled as outlined herein under forced draft. Some of these take the form of a hopper which feeds the coal through tuyeres and automatically brings the ash out of the ashpit. Others take the form of. an under-feed type of stoker, which has a variable feed depending upon the heating require ments. There are adaptations of chain-grate stokers which emulate the more pretentious power type of units, all of which have their particular field for the kind of fuel to be burned and function as a labor saving device, but all in general follow principles as outlined in the foregoing treatise.
. Over-feed stokers are adapted for all kinds of fuel and the angle of
the grate bars will indicate whether bituminous, semi-bituminous, coking
coal or the non-coking types are to be used.
.
Under-feed stokers are made in single or multiple units and will burn
coking or non-coking varieties of coal equally well. In both cases either forced or induced draft may be used.
The important points to be observed in recommending and using stoker installations are:
1. Stokers in large plants used in conjunction with modern methods of coal storage and handling at their disposal show a considerable labor saving.
2. In small plants stokers are only advisable where the saving in fuel will be lkrge ' or where the smoke question is a factor.
3. The upkeep cost of stokers generally exceeds that for hand fired furnaces.
4. The use of different fuels and a better efficiency is obtainable with mechanical stokers.
No stoker will handle every class of fuel satisfactorily so tha.t^in
selecting a stoker the engineer should take into consideration the t^jte
best suited for the fuel and operating conditions. Relative to efficiency
of combustion, other conditions being similar, there will be no appreciable
difference with the different types of stokers provided that the proper
type is used for the fuel to be burned and the operating conditions
are fulfilled.

THE STACK
The function of the stack under natural draft operation is threefold: (1) to eliminate the waste gases; (2) to circulate the hot gases through the
heating surfaces of the boiler and (3) to draw the air, necessary for com bustion, through the fuel bed. The fuel bed resistance varies with the type of fuel and the last function referred to, becomes the heaviest stack load on'the finer grades of fuel and this load is applied at the point where the stack is least able to handle it. Increasing the stack pull to the point where sufficient air can be drawn through a heavy bed of fine fuel results
in a waste of heat due to excess air and a tendency to lift a certain .amount of unconsumed fuel, unless the draft be properly controlled, by dampers,
according to the varying thicknesses of the fuel bed. The draft from stacks also varies according to temperatures and wind
conditions. This, coupled with the difficulties of control referred to above frequently brings up the question of using properly regulated mechanical
draft.
MECHANICAL DRAFT
There is a certain draft which will give the best results for every kind of fuel and rate of combustion. The amount of fuel that can be burned per hour per square foot of grate surface is governed by the quality and
the type of fuel as well as by the draft obtainable. ' Mechanical draft is used to obtain economy of operation, increased capacity or both and may be accomplished by either the forced or induced method. The two common methods of producing mechanical draft are by means of fans or steam jets. Each method has its advantages and
design, conditions will govern the choice of apparatus. Mechanical draft fans are usually either disc or centrifugal type and because of the severe service to which they are subjected they must be of rugged construction, well balanced, must be able to operate continuously,
withstand high stresses, maintain the proper pressure and horse-power characteristics and show a good efficiency over a wide range of operating
...conditions. Mechanical draft fans should be of such capacity that they will be
able to handle the quantity, of gases produced. If it is assumed that !5 lb, of coal per boiler horsepower at 24 lb. of flue gases per pound of
coal there would be 120 lb. of flue gases per hour to handle.
' The volume of flue gases may be easily computed from the density, of
gases at the room temperature for forced draft and at flue temperature for induced draft and the size of fan to be provided may be obtained from
,. the fan.maker's table. FigM; shows the difference in pressure required between the ashpit
and the'furnace in order to burn various classes of fuel at different rates
o: ;nftthe!'iigl'r(ate.
FORCED DRAFT
',
. ,n -

' This is usually applied by what is known as the direct method where
, ;air- is piped directly to the ashpit through intervening duct work with a
^pressure maintained sufficient to force the air through the necessary duct
system, stoker setting if installed, and the fuel bed. Excessive pressures
162
Chapter VII--Mechanical Draft
not only create an outrush of flame and smoke when fire doors are opened but also cause objectionable leakage of gases into the boiler room.
For best firing condition, a slight indraft of 0.05 in. to 0.10 in..of water should be maintained above the fire and the remaining losses through the boiler, breeching, etc. should be taken care of by the stack or induced draft fan.
The determining factors for the correct amount of air and static pres sure for forced draft installations are: the boiler rating to be developed, grate area and kind of fuel to be used.
Fig. 1.
Static Pressures Required to Burn Various Fuels at Various Rates of Combustion
For example:--On a 200 hp.-boiler at 150 per cent rating with'45 sq. ft.
of grate surface and using buckwheat coal it is found that by using
20 c.f.m. pier hp. which would provide about' 100 per cent excess air (a
proper selection for hand fired conditions) 6000 c.f.m. would be required.
Basing the calculations on
lb. of coal per hp. developed would give
1350 lb. of coal fired per hour or 30 lb. of coal per square foot of grate
per hour.
'
From Fig. 1 it will be noted that No. 1 Buckwheat would require 1 in.
static pressure, and Barley, 2 in. static pressure. To this must be added
the duct losses. The accompanying Table 2, gives the various velocities
desirable for such an installation. .
;;
With low pressure heating boilers such as the steel firebox'type and
cast iron sectional boilers, observations show that 15 lb. of coal per
hour per square foot of grate surface for the former and 10 lb. for the
latter are reliable'rates for burning.

From Recommendations for the Installation of Stoker Fans by the Stoker and Fan Manufacturers' Association:
The area of the main air ducts shall be determined by using a velocity in the ducts based on a velocity pressure of from 5 per cent to a maximum of 10 per cent of the static pressure.
The area of the branch air ducts leading to boilers should be such that the velocity will not be more than two-thirds of that in the main ducts.
The above table is based on a weight of air of 0.075 lb. per cu. ft. which corresponds to a temperature
of 6S deg. fahr., a barometric pressure 29.92 in. (sea level) and 50 per cent relative humidity. (For higher
elevations or temperatures, the above velocities may be increased 1 per cent for each 500 ft. increase in
elevation, add 1 per cent for each 10 deg. fahr. increase in temperature.)
-
It is desirable to have the duct work as short and straight as possible and for the class of installations contemplated under this heading 2500 ft. per minute is a satisfactory velocity for the air through the
duct work as a maximum.

The majority of installations today are using the motor driven forced draft blowers of the direct connected type. The variable speed type permits of a flexible control over the fires. A regulating device con veniently located at the boiler front can be adjusted from time to time to correspond to the prevailing thickness of fire bed rather than have the fireman go some distance to adjust the draft.
Enclosed types of motors are preferable, in order to reduce the wear on the bearings and brushes.
Where high pressure steam is available, there is an advantage in either steam engine or turbine driven units, if the exhaust steam can be led into the feed water heaters or steam heating system.
Forced; draft blowers may be put in individually, one for each boiler or in multiples. The controlling of the motors may be either manual or automatic. In the case of the latter a pressure regulator from the main steam header is connected electrically in relay to a magnetic switch of sufficient capacity to carry the forced draft unit.
For small forced draft installations using the fine grades of Buckwheat coal, this applies more particularly to house heating, schools, etc., the accompanying-Table 3 (based on 40 c.f.m. per square foot of grate) and Tables 4 and'5 are convenient to use.
A satisfactory arrangement, for such units, is to connect the blower discharge to the ashpit by means of a blast gate and control it in parallel with the stack damper. A room thermostat, preferably placed in the living quarters regulates the blast of air by cutting in and out the blower simultaneously as the thermostat calls for more or less heat from the boiler. In order to compensate for the time element between the genera tion of heat in the boiler and its delivery to the radiation in the living quarters, there should be a device such as a pressurestat or aquastat on tiie boiler proper in order to limit the top pressure or temperature of the boiler by cutting out the blower when it reaches that limit irrespective of the room thermostat referred to previously.
INDUCED DRAFT
Induced draft may be used where the,stack, boiler and furnace re sistance are such that the average stack-becomes overloaded for a given rating on the boiler. The induced draft fan might then be placed near the base of the stack for handling smoke and gases leaving the furnace, whereupon a high stack would not be needed, the necessary draft being created by the fan. Induced draft fans should not create an excessive vacuum through the fuel bed as this increases the air leakage through the breeching and stack causing unnecessary heat loss. In the larger boiler plants where economizers and air preheaters are used, the duty placed upon the chimney becomes very great and, particularly where boilers are being operated at a high percentage of over rating, the induced- draft fan becomes a desirable part of the plant equipment. The induced draft fan.has to handle a large volume of air at a high temperature and for stack'gas at 550 deg. temperature which is an average figure, there will be required approximately 40 cu. ft. per minute per boiler hp. tobe handled, allowing 100 per cent excess air for hand fired installations. In case of stoker fired furnaces not over 50 per cent excess air is calculated.

HEATING WITH AIR
THERE are several typical systems of warm-air heating in common use today. An analysis of the systems mentioned in the following list will show that warm air may be employed as the heating medium in almost all types of heating requirements: (1) Gravity warm-air furnace systems, with or without booster, fans for forced circulatiop'and combination air and water systems for isolated rooms; (2) Fa-furnace heating -systems (see Chapter IX); (3) Fan-blast heating systems (see Chapter X); (4) Unit heating systems (see Chapter X); (5) Indirect radiation systems (see Chapter II).
Each system has its particular application: No. 1 is intended par ticularly for residences and small structures; No. 2 for large residences, small theatres, churches, schools and stores; No. 3 for large buildings, .theatres, schools, churches and factories; No. 4 for shops, factories and other large enclosures and No. 5 for homes, hotels, schools, etc. '
In this chapter of The Guide, consideration will be given to the design of gravity circulating warm-air heating systems. For fan circulating systems see Chapters IX, X, XXIV, XXV and XXVIII. Complete engineering data, including the procedure to be followed in designing a typical system, are presented in the first part of this chapter, while the last part of the chapter presents a Standard Code Regulating the Installation of Gravity Warm-Air Heating Systems in Residences, approved by the National Warm Air Heating Association, American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers and the National Association Sheet Metal Contractors, as a workable Code for furnacemen.
DEFINITIONS
In general, warm-air furnace heating plants consist of a fuel burning furnace or heater enclosed in a casing of sheet metal or brick, which is placed in the basement of the building. The heated air, taken from the

top or sides near the top of the furnace casing, is distributed to the various rooms of the building through sheet metal warm-air pipes. The warm-air pipes in the basement are known as leaders, and the vertical warm-air pipes which are run in the inside partitions of the building are called stacks. The heated air is finally discharged into the rooms through

registers which are set in register boxes placed either in the floor or in the side wall, usually at or near the baseboard.
The air supply to the furnace may be taken (1) entirely from inside the building through one or more recirculating ducts, (2) entirely from outside the building, in which case no air is recirculated, or (3) through a combination of the inside and outside air supply system is employed.
Furnace heating plants may be (1) of the gravity circulating type in which the motive head producing flow depends upon the difference in weight between the heated air leaving the easing and pipes and the cooler air entering the bottom of the casing, or (2) of the fan circulating type in which a fan may supply all or part of the motive head producing flow. lll-i In most house installations, the former type of system is in general use.

DESIGNING A FURNACE HEATING SYSTEM
The design of a furnace heating system involves the determination of the following items:
a. Heat loss in B.t.u. from each room in the building. b. Area and diameter in inches of warm-air pipes in basement (known as leaders).
c. Area and dimensions in inches of vertical pipes (known as wall stacks).
d Free and gross area and dimensions in inches of warm-air registers.
e. Area and dimensions of (1) recirculating or (2) outside air supply ducts in inches. There may be one or more of each.

HEAT LOSSES FROM BUILDING
The heat which will be required for each room in the building depends on (1) the heat transmission losses through walls and glass as well as through floors and ceilings when the latter two are next to unheated spaces, and (2) the infiltration of cold air through the cracks around, outside windows and doors. Calculations for the heat required in B.t.u. per hour should be made as indicated in Chapter I, Heat Losses from
Buildings.
LEADER SIZES
In a gravity circulating warm-air furnace system' the; size of the leader to a given room depends on the temperature of the warm air entering the room at the register* A reasonable air temperature at the registers must, therefore, be agreed upon before the system can be designed. The National Warm Air Heating Association has approved an air temperature of 175 deg. fahr. at the registers as satisfactory. At this temperature, the heat carrying capacity (heat available above 70 deg. fahr.) per square inch of leader pipe per hour for first, second or third floors is shown by Fig. 1 at 175 deg. fahr. to be 105, 170 ana 208 B.t.u. respectively. For average calculations, the values'111, 166 and 200 will simplify the work and may be satisfactorily substituted for these heat carrying capacities. If H represents the total heat to be supplied any room, the resulting equations are:
Leader areas for first floor, square inches =
= approximately .0.00917
' , |
Leader areas for second floor, square inches = jgg = approximately 0.006H
(1) (2)
. Leader areas for third floor, square inches = oqq = approximately 0.0Q5H (3)
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
In designing for a lower warm-air register temperature, say 160 deg. fahr., the factors 111, 166 and 200 become 80, 140 and 166 (Fig. 1 at 160 deg. fahr.), and the resulting equations are.-

.
Leader areas for third floor, square inches =

(6)
These equations are applicable to straight leaders from 6 to. 8 ft, in length. Longer leaders must be very thoroughly, covered or. else the vertical stacks must be increased in area as discussed under wall stacks. If some provision is not made for these longer leaders, the. air tempera ture may be much lower than anticipated and the room will not be properly heated.
While Fig. 1 takes care of the drop of temperature in straight leaders up to 8 ft. in length connected to stacks having about 75 per cent the area of the leader, the designer must make allowances for all other
170

conditions. The temperature drop in leaders of various lengths at three different register temperatures is shown in Fig. 2.
Leader sizes should in general be not less than obtained by equations (1) to (3) nor should leaders less than 8 in. in diameter be used. It is not considered good commercial practice to specify diameters except

in whole inches, although there is no real reason for not using half inches if necessary. The tops of leaders should be at the same elevation as they leave the furnace bonnet, and from this point there should be a uniform up-grade of 1 in. per foot of run in all cases. Leaders over 12 ft. in length are to be avoided or receive very special attention.
WALL STACKS
:
The wall stack for an upper floor should be made not less than 70 per cent of the area of'the leader which has been selected from Fig. I. So long as the leader is short and straight as was the case for Fig. 1, such a practice is probably justified, since the loss (Fig. 3) in capacity occasioned by the smaller stack is not very serious for stacks havingareas in excess of 70 per cent of the leader area. For leaders over 8 ft.
171

Stack heads should have upper end curved to provide easy flow of warm air to the room.
WARM-AIR REGISTERS

area, in excess of the total area of warm-air pipes, and at all.points where theai r stream must change direction or shape, streamline fittings should be employed. Horizontal ducts, should pitch, at least one-half inch per foot, upward from the furnace.
The recirculating grilles (or registers) should have a free area at least equal to the ducts to which they connect, and their free area should never be less than 50 per cent of their gross area.
The location and number of return grilles will depend on the size, details and exposure of the house. Small compactly built houses may frequently be adequately served by a single return effectively placed in a central hall. More often it is desirable to provide two-or more returns,

of the register. No upper floor register should be wider horizontally than the wall stack, and it should be placed either in the baseboard or side wall, if this can be done without the use of offsets. First floor registers may be of the baseboard or floor type with the former location preferred. No first floor register should require a register box more than 14 in. wide, although it may be longer than 14 in.
RECIRCULATING AIR SUPPLY DUCTS AND GRILLES
The ducts through which air is returned to the furnace should be designed to minimize friction and turbulence. They should be of ample
174
msi'icarT--f [MTIM
Fig 7. Elevation of the Warm Air Research Residence
provided, however, that in two-story residences one return must be placed, to effectively receive the cold air returning by way of the stairs.
Where a divided system "of two or more returns is used the grilles must be placed to serve the maximum area of cold wall or windows. Thus in rooms having only small windows the grille should be brought as close to the furnace as possible, but if the room has a bay window, french doors, or other large sources of cooling and leaking of cold air, the grille should be placed close by, so as to collect the cool air and prevent drafts. When long ducts of this type are employed they must be made oversize and favored in every way. This precaution is par ticularly important when long ducts and short ducts are used in the same system. The long-ducts must be oversize if they are to operate satis factory, in parallel with short ducts, . . Return ducts from upstairs rooms may be necessary in apartments, or other spaces closed off, or badly exposed. Metal linings are advisable in such ducts. It is important that these ducts be free from unnecessary friction and turbulence, and that they be located to prevent preheating of- the air before it reaches the furnace.

Circulation is accelerated if the drop to the furnace is through a round inclined pipe with, say, two 45-deg. elbows rather than through a vertical drop and two 90 deg. elbows. The top of the shoe should never enter the casing above the level of the grate in the furnace. To accomplish this the shoe must be wide.
FURNACE
The size of furnace should, of course, be such as will provide, the necessary air heating capacity, usually expressed in square inches of

with it as shown by the efficiency curve of Fig. 6. The fourth factor is the heat value per pound of fuel burned, which was 12,790 B.t.u., but is not shown on the curves since it was constant for all combustion rates.
From the relation existing between these factors it is found (Fig. 6) that the capacity of the furnace under test is 147,750 B.t.u. per hour for the total grate, which gives the capacity at the furnace bonnet per square foot of grate as 51,300 B.t.u. and per square inch of grate as
356 B.t.u. per hour. Suppose it is desired to select a furnace to deliver air to the rooms at a
register temperature approximating 160 deg. rather than 175 deg.
leader pipe area, and at the same time provide a grate of the proper area to burn the necessary fuel at a reasonable chimney draft. The total leader pipe area required is easily obtained by finding the sum of the leader pipe areas as already designated.
The grate area will depend on several factors of which four are very important. First of all, the air temperature at the register for which the plant has been designed must be determined. Usually, this tempera ture is taken as 175 deg. fahr. Second in importance is the combustion rate, which must always correspond with the register air temperature, as is shown by reference to a set of typical furnace performance curves. (Fig. 6) for a cast-iron circular radiator furnace with a 23-in. diameter grate and 50-in. diameter casing. The conditions shown on these curves which seem to approximate nearest to the 175 deg. register warm-air
temperature are--combustion rate 7 lb., warm-air register temperature 173 deg., efficiency of the furnace 58.5 per cent. The third factor is efficiency, which, in turn, is a function of the combustion rate varying
176
Referring to the curves, the relation is--combustion rate 5.5 lb., register
warm-air temperature 160 deg. and efficiency of the furnace 62 per cent.
Under this condition the capacity of the furnace at the furnace bonnet
per square foot of grate area is 43,300 B.t.u. per hour, and per square
inch of grate it is 300 B.t.u. per hour. From these performance values,
the grate area for any plant requirement will be, (allowing 20 per cent
heat loss between furnace and registers):

American Society 0/ Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
approximately 1.27 times the cubic feet of air admitted through the intake per hour on a zero day. For systems which recirculate ail the air this value will be zero. For systems which have a fresh air intake, controlled by damper, this value might well be approximated, since this loss will probably be reduced to a minimum on a zero day. Assume for such cases, that the building loss is Increased by 25 per cent, and that there is the usual 20 per cent loss between furnace and registers.
It is not always possible to obtain performance curves, and the fol lowing method is suggested as being a close check. An addition of 2 per cent of the furnace capacity is proposed for each unit that the heating surface-grate area ratio of the furnace exceeds 20. This addition

Basis of Working Rules for Pipes
a. These formulae are for 70 deg. temperature difference (outside temperature zero, inside temperature 70 deg. fahr.). When temperature difference is more than 70 deg., add IK per cent per deg. to final figures.
When temperature difference is less than 70 deg., deduct IK per cent per deg. room final figures.
b. The values as given In Table A for use in the working rules. Article 3, Sections 1, 2 and 3 are derived as follows:
Example.--The factor 60 in Table A, Item No. 1, is based upon a coefficient of heat transmission of 0.23 B.t.u. per square foot per degree difference per hour, thus:
W X 0.23 X 70 + 111 = sq. in. first floor leader to compensate for the heat loss through walls only.
In this,
. W net area of exposed wall in sq. ft.
'
0.23 = coefficient of transmission in B.t.u. per sq. ft. per degree difference per hr.
70 difference In temperature .of air on inside and outside of wail.. .
, 111 = heat delivering capacity of 1 sq. in. of first floor leader pipe for a .. register temperature of 175 deg. fahr.
Reduced to its simplest approximate form this is
'
WX9
..
60
' Likewise substitute 167 for second floor and 200 for third floor in place of 111.
The values in Table A for the different types of walls were obtained by substitution of proper coefficient of heat transmission instead of 0.23 in the above formula.

Explanatory Notes .
'
Notes.--In obtaining glass surface use full casement opening. An outside door is figured as glass.
Note
Jo obtain net outside wall multiply height by width and deduct the glass in all windows
and outside doors. For all rooms with attic spaces immediately above, full ceiling areas shall be taken
into account using Table A. Floors over unexcavated spaces shall be figured as 50 per cent exposed wall
and fully exposed floors shall be figured as 100 per cent exposed wall.
Note S.--For rooms having unusual exposure, ordinarily north, northeast and northwest, add 15 per cent
to pipe area. For east and west exposure, add 10 per cent.
t
Note 6. Use no warm-air pipe less than 8 in. in diameter. If a basement warm-air pipe figures
greater area than any standard commercial size then the nearest commercial size shall be used, provided
however, that the total pipe area shall in no'case be less than the total requirements according to Sections 1
2 and 3.
.
Note 7. It is understood in using the above values for determining basement warm-air pipe areas, that
these pipes should be run comparatively straight and that they should not be over 10 to 12 ft. in length.
Sharp turns and long-pipes should have extra capacity. When warm-air pipes exceed 12 ft. in length or
have more than two 70 deg. turns, the next larger commercial size pipe must be used. `
Note 8.--The value of 800 (used in cubic contents) is for an estimated-air change of one room volume
per hour. If it is desired to provide for IK room volume use the figure 600. If for two room volumes use
the figure 400.
,
Transition Fittings and Stacks .
Section 7. a. Transition from warm-air pipes to stacks or register heads shall be
made with a well designed elbow or boot and no stack shall be less than 70 per cent of the area of the warm-air pipe leading to it.
b. All first floor fittings and connections, shall maintain a free area equal to the round basement pipes leading to them.
Method for Determining Size of Registers
Section 8. All registers shall have a free area at least equal to the area of the base ment pipes leading to them.
Method for Determining Size of Furnace
Section 9. a. Add together the areas (expressed in square inches) necessary for heating the building, as determined by the foregoing calculated requirements, Art. 3, Secs. 1, 2 and 3, and install a furnace, rated by the following formula:
. Furnace Rating Formula
L - 1.75 G [ 1 + 0.02 (R - 20) ]
'
L =* square inches of warm-air pipe connected to the furnace as calculated.
G grate area in square inches; the area of the firepot at the grate level; its most
restricted area.
R -- ratio of heating surface area to grate'area;
1.75 = a constant based upon the results obtained in the Association Research on a furnace having 20 sq. ft. of heating surface for each square foot of grate, and including factors for:
E = efficiency of heater;
C combustion rate;
.
P calorific value of fuel;
0.75 = percentage of heat available at registers;
136 = B.t.u. delivering value of 1 sq. in. of pipe, assuming half of the heat is sent to
each floor. This value is based on an operating temperature of 175 deg. fahr. at the register.
183
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
The formula allows 1.75 sq. in. of warm-air pipe area for each square inch of grate area, for the furnace having a ratio of heating surface to grate surface of 20 to 1. For furnaces having other ratios of heating surfaces to grate surface, it adds 2 per cent or deducts 2 per cent for each unit above or below a ratio of 20.

FORCED OR BOOSTER CIRCULATION
Results obtained in practice, as well as in Laboratory tests, indicate that the capacity and efficiency of furnaces may be raised by the use of fans to increase the velocity of flow over the heating surfaces. The question of how much air may be forced through the furnace, without the added requirements of baffles or deflectors, before the air flows through insufficiently heated has not been determined.
Experiments at the University of Illinois* have shown that the capacity of a furnace may be increased nearly three times by an adequate fan, with a constant register or delivery temperature maintained, provided that the rate of fuel consumption can be increased to provide the necessary heat. In other words the capacity of a forced circulation system is limited by the ability of the chimney to produce a sufficient draft.
Several types of "booster" fan equipment, all intended to stimulate flow over the heating surfaces, are available. It is essential for obtaining increased furnace efficiency that all such devices be capable of increasing the quantity of air flowing above that flowing by gravity.
Fans of this type run at constant speeds and outputs and it is therefore inevitable that the full advantages of forced circulation with proper regulation of air delivery cannot be obtained. As a result the booster equipment is most effective in increasing efficiency at low operating temperatures. According to tests, efficiencies may be advanced from 60 per cent for gravity to 70 per cent with boosters at low operating temperatures, but at high operating temperatures gravity and booster efficiencies are almost identical.5
In selecting booster equipment it is important that the frictional losses and static head, against which the fan must operate, be determined and units of adequate capacity be used.

CHAPTER IX
FAN FURNACE HEATING
Data on Furnace Performance, Temperatures and Velocity of Air, Ratings, Duct Systems.
THIS chapter covers that field of warm-air heating and ventilating in which the air is warmed by direct transmission heaters and the air circulation is maintained at all times during heating periods by means of blowers. Designated, the fan-furnace system, it is strictly mechanical and is comparable to the common steam blast system. For data on booster fans in conjunction with gravity warm-air furnaces (See Chapter VIII) and for direct-fired unit heaters (See Chapter X).
The fan-furnace system of heating provides a positive circulation of either outside air or return air over direct transmission heaters, through ducts to various rooms in the building and thence to the atmosphere by exhaust or back to the fan for recirculation. The use of fans permits warm-air heating and ventilation to be easily provided in larger buildings than could be properly handled by gravity means.
When first introduced, fans were used with the existing gravity fur naces, but gradually the practice developed of building heaters par ticularly designed for fan service. Due to the fact that the fan could be made to deliver any given volume of air against higher resistances, the free area through the fan duty heaters was reduced by interposing more heating surface in the path of the air and creating a more intimate contact between the air and the heating surface.
Fan furnaces must be designed to secure this increased heating surface, fire travel and grate area within economical space limits. Many of the heaters of larger capacity are designed horizontally to secure these features and to properly care for expansion and contraction.
A furnace system affords a direct transfer of heat from fuel to air, has few parts, gives quick response with high temperatures and contains no water to scale, corrode or freeze.

Any number of furnaces can be set in battery; all to be enclosed by an outer casing consisting of either brick or insulated metal. This casing provides space under the heaters for air supply and forms a plenum space above furnaces from which ducts lead to space requiring heat.

blow air through heaters rather than to draw through by suction and most fan furnaces are designed for this arrangement.
The fan-furnace system can be readily applied to each of the following standard duct systems or any combination thereof:
1. The straight fan blast trunk line system carrying heated air only for a series of
rooms on any one run.
2. The double duct system furnishing warm air in one and tempered air in the other, the mixture to be secured near the room heated and ventilated.
3. The individual duct system with separate ducts to each room, providing mixture of warm and tempered, air at the furnace casing.
In general the fan blast duct design follows standards- set forth in Chapter XXVIII (Air Duct Design and Construction). The use of fanfurnace system enables the same freedom of design in ducts as does any other blast method of heating.
The fan-furnace system cari also utilize many of the well known devices which will greatly improve its. operation. Several of these additions are
as follows:
First.--Automatic temperature control. Second.--Humidifying apparatus. Third.--Use of air washer.
Fourth.--Humidity control. Fifth.--Use of air filters., Sixth.--Use of ozone.
Automatic temperature control can readily be used on the trunk line system of ducts, the double duct or the individual duct. See Chapter XVI for control of tempered air.
For all plants a warm-air plenum thermometer, indicating the ternperature leaving the heater, is of great assistance for proper operation.
Humidifying pans connected to outside water supply and regulated by a float valve mechanism are frequently used for humidification.. To accelerate vaporization, water coils, connected to humidifying pans, extend inside the combustion chamber, but must be carefully sized to prevent excessive steaming.
Automatic control of humidity can be secured by means of sprays or air washers controlled through humidistats. It is necessary to introduce a warm-air supply in front of the air washer or to use heated water to prevent freezing. '
The further use of air washers in conjunction with refrigeration instal lations is practical with this system as in other blast plants. This is also true with all styles of air filters. See Chapter XXV (Air Conditioning and Cooling) and XXIX (Air Cleaners).
Wherever recirculation is used extensively, ozone may be applied. See Chapter XXX (Ozone in Ventilation).
FUEL
, Coal, oil and gas-fuels are commonly used with fan furnaces and there are many heaters particularly designed for the use of a particular fuel. Anthracite', semi-anthracite, semi-bituminous and bituminous coals are suitable when selected in the proper sizes. The fan-furnace system lends itself to the burning of buckwheat coal by using forced draft from fan'
190
Chapter IX--Fan Furnace Heating
and grates with small air spaces. For burning small sized bituminous coal, a stoker or Dutch oven can easily be added. See Chapter VII (Mechanical . Draft).
Where oil fuel is used in larger buildings using batteries of heaters, manually controlled mechanical atomizing oil burners are generally used. Care must be exercised in selecting the proper size oil burner and baffling arrangement to produce a clean fire. Burners are generally inserted in the ashpit door to secure greater combustion space. For smaller installations the automatic type of burner may be applied. With either type of burner it is desirable to supply fan motor with automatic starter governed by plenum room temperature and a time limit control for burner cut off in case of fan failure.
It is also advisable to install an electric oil preheater in connection with fan-furnace systems unless steam is available for warming the oil. This applies more particularly to those installations using heavier grades of fuel oil.
In connection with the burning of gas, good results have been obtained
with a burner having a number of jets, or burning points, spread out in horizontal plane and approximating a coal fire on grates. Nozzle type
burners inserted through the ashpit door with grates removed work satisfactorily if proper baffling is employed to secure a maximum im pingement of the hot gases on the heating surface.
In any case it is important to have a damper in the smoke connection from, each heater to the breeching for the purpose of adjusting the draft conditions to suit whatever gas burner is selected but in no case should such damper restrict the entire area of the smoke connection.
Another wise precaution is to provide ample air supply for combustion
from outside the building to the firing space in front of the heaters, this
would also dilute any accumulation of gas which might originate from leaks in pipe or valves.
As safety features, each installation of gas burners should be fitted
with safety pilot lights and a temperature limit control in the warm-air
plenum space in conjunction with an automatic snap valve. These last
will function to shut off all gas to the burners in the event the pilot lights
go out or in the event the temperature in the warm-air plenum exceeds
any set point.
'
See Chapter XIV for further information on gas burning.
APPLICATIONS OF FAN FURNACE HEATING
i
The fan-furnace system is adapted to public and industrial buildings including schools, churches, theatres, auditoriums, convention halls, factories and garages. In each case the building plans largely determine which type of.duct system can be most advantageously used. State laws, city ordinances, or the wishes of the owner dictate the percentage of. outside air to be figured. Insofar as the design of the ducts is concerned, the engineer has only to follow his customary practice in ventilating work. That is to say, he can calculate the ducts either on the velocity basis or the pressure loss basis, using the same velocities, data, tem perature ranges and methods he would in planning any other system of
forced air circulation for heating and ventilation. (See Chapter XXVIII.)

American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
. Chapter IX--Fan Furnace Heating
' Direct transmission heaters for fan-furnace systems are to be had made of cast-iron or steel. The former are made in sections which are cemented and then bolted together on the job; steel heaters are assembled with welded or riveted joints.
Efficiency of Heating Surface
The emission of heat from the heating surface of these furnaces will vary from 2000 to 3000 B.t.u. per square foot per hour; 2500 is a good average value.
Ratio of Heating Surface to Grate
In commercial sizes the ratio of the heating surface to the grate surface will vary from 30 to 1 to 50 to 1.
Free Area and Resistance
.
The free area through the heaters and resistance to the flow of air at varying velocities are characteristics depending upon the heater in question.
RATINGS
This class of equipment is usually rated in one of three ways, as follows:
1. The temperature rise of the air is listed over a certain range of velocities through the free area of the heater for varying combustion rates, for a certain heating value of the fuel.
2. The volume of air in cubic feet per minute is listed over several temperature rises with the necessary fuel consumption, taking coal of some known heating value as a standard.
3. The B.t.u. imparted to the air is listed for varying combustion rates.
Either of the first two methods is preferable to the third because of the inaccuracies that are apt to creep into the latter, due to the fact that
for the same combustion rate on any given heater, the B.t.u. imparted to the air will not remain constant, but will vary with the volume of air passed over the heater.
SELECTING THE HEATER
In selecting heaters for any particular work, the engineer should be governed by certain considerations that arise through the nature of the service for which the plant is intended. The volume of air to be passed over and through the heaters limits the free area required in the latter, once the velocity at this point is agreed on. It will be evident that more heater capacity is required to offset the heat losses of a building with outside 'air than with recirculated air. Consequently when designing a plant for operation on recirculated air, the volume of air per heater will be considerably larger than would be the .case for outside air. If the velocity through the heater in this case is not investigated, it may become excessive thus increasing the static resistance of the system unduly, spelling larger power bills for the owner. The free area may easily be increased by using wider casings, thus reducing the resistance and power

consumption. In practice, velocities through the free area of the heaters
are used as follows:
'
1. Schools, Churches, Auditoriums, Theatres, etc., from 800 to 1000 ft. per minute. 2. Industrial Buildings, Factories and Garages, from 1000 Jo 1400 ft. per minute.
The importance of power costs effects the decision as to what free area and static resistance are allowable.
The thermal efficiency of the various makes of heaters is a consideration deserving some thought in case the fuel to be burned is relatively high in cost.
First cost and fuel economy are items that also bear on the type of casing to be employed.
One of the most important considerations is the durability or life of the apparatus. Investigation of the several, makes of heaters contemplated submitted to him should include such -data as the thickness of the metal in each heater, the provisions made for expansionand contractions, and the protection afforded the firebox at the point of most intense heat.
. A heater made of thicker metal than others will naturally give greater length of service, all other things being equal. .
" Proper provisions for expansion and contraction are imperative. With%
out such provisions a cast-iron heater is likely to crack and a steel heater
is likely to warp and buckle.

_
Most furnaces have linings around the periphery of the fuel bed to protect the firebox from the action of the hottest part of the fire. Thelinings are removable and are as easily installed as new grates.

SUGGESTED METHODS OF PROCEDURE IN DESIGN OF FAN FURNACE SYSTEMS
1. Calculate Heat Loss of each room in building.
See Chapter I.
Example.--Assume school room with cubic content 6550.
Heat loss = 45,269 B.t.u.

2. Determine volume of air per minute. '
Based on number of occupants. Based on number of air changes.
.
Example.--Assuming 33 occupants; 30 C.F.M. per occupant. 33 X 30 = 990 C.F.M. 6550 content = 6}4 minutes air change or approximately 9 changes per hour.
3. Figure diffusion temperature of air for each room.*

`
Example.-- 112.3 deg. register + 10 deg. Loss in ducts -- 122.3 deg.
6. Determine temperature rise through heater.
Temperature rise equals final temperature minus initial tem. perature.
Where part outside and part recirculation is used. Initial temperature approximately equals PoFo + PrTz.
P0 = percentage outside air. T0 = temperature. Pz = percentage recirculated air. Tt = temperature recirculated air.

. `The diffusion temperature may be defined as the number of degrees the volume of air as determined under Item 2 must be in excess of the room temperature, in order to offset the heat loss by cooling over
that range. In other words it is the number of degrees representing the difference between the necessary supply register temperature and the room temperature for the conditions under which the heat losses are calculated in Item 1. It is readily calculated by using the following formula:

UNIT SYSTEMS FOR HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING
Industrial Types, Direct Fired Units, Air Conditioning Units, Piping Connections.
INDUSTRIAL UNIT HEATERS
THE unit heater for industrial plant application is composed of a radiator or heating element enclosed by a casing in which a power driven fan or fans are mounted. The fans draw or force air over the
heating surface where it is heated and discharged in selected directions. Unit heaters are placed directly within the room to be heated and dis
charge the heated air into the enclosure, where it is distributed uniformly over wide areas under the direct impulse of the fans and by the currents
of circulation set up.
The function for which unit heaters are designed are: To circulate
the air in the building at a rapid rate; to promote uniformity of tem peratures and quick heating-up; to control and direct the heated air
for the positive and rapid placing of the heat where it is effective; to
distribute heat over wide, areas, to reduce the number of units and simplify piping and installation; to increase the capacity of the heating surface by passing the air over it at high velocity; to provide a system
by which room temperatures are readily controlled manually or by
thermostats.
.
Different types of unit heaters are built to suit various purposes. Most
employ a heating coil to be supplied with steam or hot water. Some are
designed primarily for mounting on the floor, others for suspension over
head. Heating surfaces in the form of pipe coils, non-ferrous tubes or
shapes with extended surfaces, cast-iron, pressed and built-up sections
of the cartridge or automotive type are all used in one or more of makes
available. Fans employed are the disc or propeller, housed centrifugal
and cone types.
'
Unit heaters may be arranged to recirculate the air or to supply
warmed air from the outside for ventilation or to make up air exhausted.
One type combines a means for exhausting air with the above functions.
In addition to their prime function of plant heating, they may be adapted
to a number of industrial processes, such as drying, curing, etc. Here the
use of heated air in more rapid circulation with uniform distribution is
of particular advantage. They may be used for moisture absorption,
such as fog removal in dye-houses or the prevention of condensation on

roofs or cold surfaces of buildings where process moisture is given off. When such conditions are bad, it is necessary that the heaters draw air from outside in enough volume to provide a rapid air change and that they operate in conjunction with ventilators or fans for exhausting the moisture laden air.
Unit heaters are made to operate on hot water, vacuum or vapor steam systems or steam at any pressure up to 200 lb. or more. When high pressure steam is used, a heater must be selected with the coil especially designed to withstand the maximum pressure that will exist.
It is usual to rate unit heaters in B.t.u. per hour at a given temperature of air entering the heater and a given steam pressure maintained on the coil. Steam at 2 lb. pressure and air entering at 60 deg. fahr. are usually taken as standard. The B.t.u. capacity of a heater increases as the steam pressure increases, and decreases as the entering air temperature increases. The B.t.u. capacity for any condition of steam pressure and entering air temperature may be calculated from any given fating by the use of factors in Table 1. -

Note.--To get B.t.u'a at any steam pressure and entering temperature, multiply constant from table
by rated B.t.ue at 0 deg. entering and 5 lb. pressure,
.
The B.t.u. required to heat-a building with unit heaters is determined in the same way as for any other heating equipment. (Use data in
Chapter I).
If all or a part of the air is to be taken in from out-of-doors the B.t.u. necessary to heat this air from the outside temperature to the insidetemperature must be added. Unit heaters of the number and size needed to furnish this quantity of B.t.u. are then selected from the manufacturers rating tables, using their raitings at the steam pressure to be used and at the temperature at which the air mjll enter the heater.
For recirculating heaters with intakes at the floor level, use the tern-
198
X--Chapter
Unit Systems for Heating and Air Conditioning
perature to be maintained in the room as the temperature of the air entering the heater and where suspended heaters are used without any ' intake boxes extending down to the floor level, a higher entering air . temperature should be used than that at which the room is to be main tained. With suspended heaters taking in air at some distance above the floor, the temperature variation from floor to ceiling has been found to be approximately 1 deg. fahr. for each foot of elevation. Unit heaters' taking in recirculated air at the floor level will maintain temperature differentials of less than 1 deg. per foot of elevation. These temperature differences per foot of height are less than the corresponding variations for spaces heated by direct radiation.
Heaters supplied with superheated steam will have less B.t.u. capacity than with saturated steam at the same pressure. When superheated steam is supplied or when the steam in the heater coils is superheated by throttling from a higher line pressure, the heater manufacturer should be asked for a special rating for the conditions of the case.
The present day tendency for straight heating is to use steam at lowpressure when the boiler supplies steam for heating purposes only and when the transmission lines are short. Many industrial plants, however, generate steam at high pressure either for long distance transmission or process uses. When such high pressure steam is available in sufficient quantity for the heating load, it is most often more economical to select heaters with coils good for high pressure. Thus the line pressure may be turned into the coils directly without reducing valves, fewer or smaller heaters can be used and the condensation can be boosted to overhead returns whenever desirable to do so.
Among the unit heaters available are types having from one to four outlets that can be arranged to discharge in selected directions and that will project their heating effect over distances of from 30 to 200 ft. from the heater, depending upon the capacity of the heater and the design of the fans and outlets. This leaves the engineer comparatively free to select the heater location best suited to the production layout.
The smaller capacity propeller fan type heaters with outlet velocities from 300 ito 600 ft. per minute may be placed from 60 to 100 ft. apart. The larger capacity housed fan high outlet velocity heaters may be placed up to 400 ft. apart, depending upon their design. Heaters may be distributed through' the central portions of a room discharging toward exposed surfaces, or spaced around the walls, discharging along .the walls- and inward as well, when there are considerable roof losses. In general, it is better to direct the discharge from the unit heater in such fashion that rotational circulation is set up by the system rather than having the heaters discharge in random and counter directions.
Usually hot blasts in the working zone are objectionable, so heaters mounted on the floor should have their discharge outlets above the head line and suspended heaters should not be placed so low or turned in such direction that the heated air stream will not be objectionable in the working zone. In the interest of economy, however, the elevation of the heater outlet and the direction of discharge should be so selected that the heated air is brought as close to the head line as possible, but not into the working zone.
199
S
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
Unit heaters should be carefully air vented and usually a blast type trap of at least 50 per cent excess capacity should be used to take care of the load during the heating-up period. During that period the tem perature of the air entering the heaters is low and the heaters therefore condense more steam than they do when the building is up to temperature. Steam pressures below 5 lb. can be used with safety for recirculating heaters when proper provision is made for returning the condensation. If heaters are to take in air that might be at a temperature below freezing, a steam pressure of at least 5 lb. should be maintained on the heater coils.
Stopping the fan motor but with steam on the coils reduces the heat output 70 to 95 per cent, depending upon the design of the heater. , Thus room temperatures can be controlled by starting or stopping the fan motor on one or more of a group of units. This can be done manually or by means of a simple thermostat which makes and breaks the circuit either direct to the motor for fractional horsepowers or through an auto matic starting switch. Of course the heat output of the heater may also be controlled by the throttle valve to the heater coil. This can be done thermostatically either with a graduated or with an on and off action. In some applications thermostatic controls to both the motor and the
steam valve are used in conjunction.
What has been said relates generally to units in which steam or hot water is used as the heating medium. On rare occasions electrical resistances are used as the heating element but are applied only where electric power is abundant and cheap and other forms of fuel scarce
and expensive.
DIRECT FIRED UNITS
.
In places where these heating mediums are not available the directfired type of heater is used. Here the heating element is a firebox in which coal, coke, oil or gas is burned directly. This firebox is enclosed in a casing in which fans are mounted so as to draw air over the firebox, and combustion chamber and discharge it directly into the room. This type of heater is also used for temporary heat or,where the installation of a steam or hot water plant is for some reason not justified.
AIR CONDITIONING UNITS
A recent development has been the introduction of self-contained unit air conditioning devices. Essentially an outfit of this kind consists of a unit heater with the addition of an air-washer, humidifier or dehumidifier. Several types are on the market and are being used, in certain cases, to render a service similar to that produced by the well known types of central air conditioning systems, which central systems are equipped with' supply air ducts for uniform distribution of conditioned air and recirculating ducts for returning the air to the apparatus.
In most lines of manufacture where the product is of such value as to necessitate the use of air conditioning equipment, it may be considered . imperative to provide a highly uniform delivery of conditioned air. A. few years ago it was considered necessary to install a return duct system similar to the supply ducts, but recent practice has been to eliminate
200
XChapter --Unit Systems for Heating and Air Conditioning
many of the smaller branch return ducts and pick up the return air in comparatively large volumes at suitably spaced return intakes. A logical development of this trend is to eliminate the delivery ducts, also, by the use of individual air conditioning units.
Good judgment and thorough knowledge of the art are prerequisites for the design of both unit and central types of air conditioning apparatus. For some purposes it will probably be satisfactory to deliver conditioned air from one or more units suitably located within an enclosure.
An air conditioning unit is so designed that it will draw in air from the room or enclosure in which it is placed or it will draw air from the outside, or through a medium of mixing dampers; it will also draw any pre determined mixture of the two. This entering air passes through one or more spray or mist chambers, in which space, moisture is either added to or removed from the air in accordance with the temperature of the air and of the spray water and at the same time the air is washed substan tially free of dust and solid matter. The air next travels between the customary labyrinth eliminator plates to lose its entrained water.
A suitably located fan assembly causes the air to flow over a heating element and the conditioned air is delivered to the room. A motor-driven centrifugal pump or other means is used to take water from the tank built into the base of the unit and deliver this water under a suitable pressure to the spray- heads, mist nozzles or other atomizing apparatus. In some makes of unit conditioners spray nozzles have been discarded in favor of other means of producing the required water spray or mist for the transfer of heat from air to water or vice versa. Automatic instru ments control the condition of the leaving air by regulating the tem perature of the spray water and also the amount of steam supplied to the air heater. Such instruments are usually placed in the path of the return air as it enters the unit to be conditioned, as the entering air is a sample of room air, The spray water can be heated by either an ejector or closed type heater, in the usual manner for humidifying purposes.
For dehumidifying work cold water can be supplied under automatic control as needed. It will be found best to employ a separate water cooler located in close proximity to the compressors and condensers, where artificial refrigeration is used, instead of making use of direct expansion coils or brine coils within the air conditioning units.
Unit air conditioning equipment may be of the following types: (1) the air washer type which does not control the moisture content or tem perature of, but simply cleans the leaving air, (2) -the humidifying type which controls the relative humidity without washing the air or con trolling its temperature, (3)'the complete air conditioning unit, which washes the air, controls its moisture content and heats or cools the room within which the unit is located.
In addition to the use of air conditioning purely for human comfort, there are many industries where the materials handled are hygroscopic in nature, and where the processes are greatly facilitated by the use of conditioned air. An example is a printing plant where many difficulties such as those from static electricity or from improper register are en countered with the paper as it passes through the presses.
There are certain other industries whose higher existence depend upon
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
the reproduction day after day of the same air conditions. An example is, a bakery where the quality of the bread is almost entirely dependent upon the condition of the air in the fermentation room and the proof box. . Tobacco, textiles, paper, rubber, candy and celluloid are a few of the products with which conditioned air may be used to advantage during the manufacturing process.
Conditioning units lend themselves very well to the production of dif ferent air temperatures and humidities in the different rooms or depart ments of a manufacturing plant. When equipped with automatic control they very effectively reproduce the same conditions day after day. Additional units can be added to keep pace with the growth of a depart ment and they can also be moved, from one room to another to suit plant alterations or changes in production routine.
In a plant where several units are 'being used, the breakdown of one unit does not seriously impair the production, inasmuch as the remaining units will furnish a considerable quantity of conditioned air until the disabled unit is repaired.
Other possible advantages are small first cost due to elimination of supply and return ducts, small operating expense due to low air pressure required with the absence of ducts and high salvage value. Possible dis advantages are maintenance costs, cost of supply and return lines for water and steam, cost of electric wiring and possible difficulties met with in keeping a number of sets of regulating and controlling devices in good operating condition.
PIPING CONNECTIONS FOR UNIT HEATERS
Piping connections for unit heaters are similar to those for other types of fan blast heaters.
One-pipe gravity and vapor systems are not recommended for unit heater work. On two-pipe gravity or pump and receiver systems the return from each unit should be fitted with a blast trap or a heavy duty thermostatic trap and an air valve should be connected into the return header of each unit.
On vacuum systems the return from each unit should be fitted with a blast trap to discharge the water of condensation and with a thermostatic air trap for eliminating the air, or with a heavy duty thermostatic trap for handling both the condensation, and the air, provided the air can be finally eliminated at some other point in the return system.
On high-pressure systems the same kind of traps may be used as with vacuum systems, except that they must be properly constructed for the pressure used. If the air is to be eliminated at the return header of the unit, it is customary to use pet cocks, otherwise the air is passed with the condensate through the high-pressure return trap.

CENTRAL HEATING SYSTEMS
` Typical Service Connections, Control Devices, Underground Distribution Systems, Expansion and Contraction, Conduits and Tunnels, Insulation, Steam Requirements for
. Different Types of Buildings.
THE object of this section is to present the outstanding engineering features of central station heating, omitting any discussion of con tracts, rates and other commercial features. A great, deal of the infor mation given will apply not only to the public utilities generally classed as district heating systems, but also to those institutional groups supplied from a central source, and perhaps better classified as central heating systems.
SERVICE CONNECTIONS FROM HIGH PRESSURE AND LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM
The practice of two companies in connecting the customer's premises with the street system are shown in accompanying sketches. Figs. 1 and 2 show the methods employed by a'Boston utility for cooling condensate of customer's steam systems before discharging the condensate to the meter. Similar requirements pertain where customers purchase steam by flow meter. In the latter case, however, the company does not insist that the customer meet the requirements completely as any loss in metering is borne by the customer. A vacuum or condensation return pump may be attached to these systems.
Fig. 3 shows a typical installation for service from the system of a New York utility. The practice followed by utilities in other localities may be found in the Handbook or the Proceedings of the National District Heating Association.
CONTROL OF STEAM SUPPLY
. Because radiation for a building must provide for maximum load con ditions, variable weather in many localities brings the problem of variable steam demand from the various heating elemenfs in the building. This condition may be controlled by hand method or by any one of the systems of automatic heat control described in Chapter XVI. Another form of regulation, known as the time limit control, is sometimes employed for regulating the steam supply from the central station main to the building.
Such a control provides an intermittent supply of steam to the radiation either throughout the 24 hours of the day or during the daytime hours 'only. The setting of a switch may provide no service, continuous service,
The material for this chapter was especially prepared for The Guide by the following committee:
.George W. Martin, chairmen; A. S. Armagnac, D. S. Boyden, Walter J. Kline. Edward Lenz, L. B. McMillan,
A. W. Moulder, George B. Nichols, and Ralph C. Taggart.

or periodic service. For the latter, by means of several intermittent set tings, steam will be supplied, during each period, in increments of a certain number of minutes for each successive setting of the switch, steam being shut off during the balance of the period. These settings afford from 15 to 80 per cent of that maximum heating effect, required on days Of zero temperature.
A night switch with a variety of settings, may be adjusted so as to
maintain throughout the night the intermittent supply called for by the day switch setting, or may be set to interrupt the operation of the day
switch and entirely cut off the supply of steam to the radiation at night during certain hours which are selected by the operating engineer.
A morning service switch may operate independently of the day and
night switches to supply full steam service to the radiation during the
early morning hours (6.00 a.m. to 9.00 a.m.) or afford an excess heat
supply when desired by the operator.
Still another form of control regulates the pressure in the mains leaving the boiler plants to correspond with the changes in local factors.
In general practice, the size of a pipe line is fixed so that steam can be delivered to the system at full rated boiler pressure. With a maximum
load, the pressure drop in the line will be such that a fixed pressure can be held at a distant point due to definite requirements of the customer.
This maximum load is generally fixed by future requirements that may
not be reached for years, also the daily and hourly load may vary ma terially, or the pressure requirements fixing the design may vary at certain
periods. Rather than carry full boiler pressure on the system with its corresponding line loss under varying loads, considerable saving can be
made by installing one or more pressure-reducing valves in the boiler plant for holding the pressure at a point to correspond with the actual load requirements. In institutional heating these pressure-reducing valves make it possible to reduce the night pressure materially, thereby making
a decided saving in coal. Where the load requirements vary considerably, a bank of reducing valves is often installed in multiple; so that the valve in use will be working very close to its rating.
At the present time, the tendency is to distribute at as high a steam pressure as possible, without unduly increasing the cost of the line con struction. With standard weight pipe and welded joints, there is no reason why the line should not carry at least 200 lb. pressure at maximum load. With these higher pressures the lines can be kept small, decreasing the investment cost and corresponding line losses,
The reduction in pressure at the boiler plant, together with a consider
able drop in the line, will produce a superheating of the steam so that
the superheating will balance the line loss and this will make very little,
if any, trap drip discharge, thereby eliminating water hammer. Too
strong emphasis cannot be placed on the idea of having the distributing
lines the right size rather than excessive.
'
The pipe line can be designed for any grade, but all low points should be drained through traps, discharging to the sewer or to return lines.
The practice of designing a line based on velocity of steam is becoming obsolete in favor of designing for pressure drop.

PIPE LINE EXPANSION
In laying out a pipe line the expansion should be actually determined for each run, and adequate provision should be made for it.
Two methods are in use for taking care of expansion, (1) by some form of expansion joint, and (2) some form of offset or bend.
Table 1 shows the expansion in 100 ft. of pipe at various temperatures. The expansion of any length of pipe is determined by taking the difference

Chapter XI--Central Heating Systems
The offset lengths which are required for expansion in the case of
wrought iron pipe may also be used for brass pipes, using in each case
the actual amount of expansion in the piping.
.
CAPACITY OF RETURNS WITH VARIOUS GRADES
In general, return lines when installed follow the contour of the land and Table 3 gives sizes of return pipes'for various grades. It is evident that at points where the grade is great, smaller pipes can be installed.
Table 4 gives the number of pounds of steam condensed to water for various steam pressures which can be used in determining the size of steam main or return line.
Table 5 gives the capacity of various sizes of pipes under various steam velocity of 10,000 ft. per minute. The pipe loss will not vary under other velocities. For other velocities, the capacity may be determined by dividing by 10,000 and multiplying by actual velocity.
HEATING CONDUITS
Conduits for steam pipes buried underground should be water-proof, able to withstand earth loads and take care of the expansion and con traction of the piping without strain or stress on the couplings, also without affecting the installation or conduit. Expansion of the piping must be carefully controlled by means of anchors and expansion joints or betids so that the pipes can never come in contact with the conduit. Anchors can be anchor fittings or U-shaped steel straps which partially encircle the pipes and are firmly bolted to a short length of structural steel set in concrete.
In laying out conduits of this type the following points should be borne in mind:
1. The conduit should be laid out in successive straight runs between manholes or anchor pits.
2. An anchor should be placed wherever the line changes direction.
3. An expansion joint offset or bend should be placed between each two anchors.
4. Manholes should be provided at each expansion joint. Where slip joints are used manholes should be vented.
5. Branches should be taken off at or near an anchor.
6. If the distance between buildings is 150 ft. or less and the steam line contains high-pressure steam, it may be anchored in the basement of one building and
' allowed to expand into the basement of the second building. If the steam line contains low-pressure steam (up to 4-ib. pressure), this method may be used if buildings are 250 ft. or less apart.
7. If the distance between buildings is between 150 ft. and 300 ft. and the steam
line contains high-pressure steam, the lines should be anchored midway between
the buildings and allowed to expand into the basements of both buildings. If
the steam line contains low-pressure steam this method may be used if buildings
are between 250 ft. and 600 ft. apart. No manhole is required at the anchor, and
a blind pit is all that is necessary.
'
8. For longer lines, manholes must be located according to judgment and depending upon the expansion value of'the type of expansion joint or bend that is used. The minimum number of manholes will be required when an expansion bend or

Chapter XI--Central Heating Systems
an anchor with double expansion joint is placed in each manhole, and the pipes are anchored midway between manholes.
9. Stabilizers to maintain alignment of pipes should be placed on each side of each expansion joint or bend.
10. A proper hydrostatic test should be applied to the piping before^ the top of the conduit is applied and before application of insulation. The pressure used in this test should be greater than the pressure used in service, and should be not less than 100 lb. per square inch in any case.
The styles and construction of conduits commonly used may be classified as follows:1
Filler Type.--The pipes are supported on expansion rollers properly supported from the conduit or independent masonry base. The pipes are protected by a split tile con duit, and the entire space between the pipes and the tile is filled with an insulating filler. Thus the pipes are nested and the insulation between them and the tile effectively prevents circulation of air. The conduit is placed on a bed of gravel or crushed rock from 4 to 6 in. thick, which is extended upward so as to come about 2 in. above the parting lines of the tile. A tile underdrain is placed beneath the conduit throughout the entire length and is connected to sewers or to some other point of free discharge.
Insulated Tile Type.-^The insulating material is molded to the inside of a split tile conduit. The pipes are supported on expansion rollers usually. The space between the pipes and the insulating conduit lining may also be filled with an insulating filler. The conduit insulation, piping and earth load are supported by the base drain. A few inches of gravel or crushed rock are placed about the conduit and the base drain.
Sectional Insulation Type (Tile Conduit).--Each pipe is insulated in the usual way
with any desired type of sectional pipe insulation over which is placed a standard water
proofjacket with cemented joints. The pipes are enclosed in a split tile conduit which
is placed on a bed of crushed rock or gravel from 4 to 6 in. thick. This gravel bed is
extended upward so as to come about 2 in. above the parting lines of the tile. Under
drains are sometimes omitted where this type is used, any water which seeps into the
conduit being allowed to flow down the bottom of the conduit to the nearest manhole.
Drains are laid from the floor of each manhole to some point of free discharge. The
pipes are supported on roller frames and these, according to the type of conduit used, are
either supported by the conduit itself or have their lower parts.set in concrete, thus
supporting the pipes independent of the conduit.
.. *
Sectional Insulation Type (Tile or Concrete Trench).--A type of construction fre
quently used in city streets, where service connections are required at frequent intervals,'
the pipes are insulated as described in the preceding paragraph, and are enclosed in a
box or trench made either entirely of concrete, or with concrete bottom and specially
constructed tile sides and tops. The pipes are supported on roller frames secured in
the concrete.
,
.
Sectional Insulation Type' (Bituminized Fibre Conduit).--Each pipe is individually
insulated and encased in a bituminized fibre conduit. The insulating material is 85
per cent carbonate of magnesia sectional pipe covering, applied in the usual manner as
on overhead pipes, except that bands are omitted. After every fifth section of magnesia
covering there is applied a short, hollow section of very hard asbestos material in the
bottom portion of which rests a grooved-iron plate carrying ball-bearings upon which
the pipe rides when expanding or contracting. This short expansion section is of the
same outside diameter as the adjacent 85 per cent magnesia covering. Over the pipe
covering and expansion device there are placed two layers of bituminized fibre conduit
with all joints staggered and the surface of each conduit finished with liquid cement.
Conduits are placed on a bed of crushed rock or gravel, approximately 6 in. deep, and
this is extended upward to about the center line of the conduit when trench is backfilled.
Underdrains leading to points of free discharge are placed in the gravel or crushed
rock beds.

For further data on pipe insulation see Chapter XV.

HEATING TUNNELS
Where steam heating lines are installed in tunnels large enough to
provide walking space, the pipes are supported by means of hangers or
roller frames on brackets or frame racks at the side or sides of the tunnel.
The pipes are insulated with sectional pipe insulation over which is placed a sewed on painted canvas jacket or a jacket of asphalt saturated
asbestos water-proofing felt. The tunnel itself is usually built of concrete
and water-proofed on the outside with membrane water-proofing. Tile
drains are installed at each side or in the center below the level of the
tunnel floor to prevent the building up of static water pressure on the
outside of the construction.
On account of their relatively high first cost as compared with smaller
conduits, walking tunnels are sometimes not installed where provision
for the heating lines is the only consideration, but only- where required to accommodate miscellaneous other services, such as for underground
passage between buildings.
.
STEAM USED PER SQUARE FOOT OF RADIATION PER SEASON
ft'
The following factors are used in New York City for the different classes of buildings listed. The factors are based on maintaining for certain hours 70 deg. inside temperature with a minimum of 0 deg. outside and an average of 43 deg. for the heating season, eight months, October 1 to June 1. In this group are six types of buildings:
For manufacturing or commercial loft type, where steam is used to heat the premises during the day hours to maintain 65 to 68 deg. from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. No Sunday or holiday use and no night use. Factor: 325 lb. per square foot of radiation per season.
. For office buildings using steam during daylight hours only to maintain 70 deg. from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. for approximately 240 days (heating season). No night use. Factor:
400 lb. per square foot of radiation per season. For office buildings using steam during day hours and at night when required to 7, 8
and 9 p.m. (customary where there are stock brokers or banking offices (204 days. Factor:
500 lb. per square foot of radiation per season. For residences of the block type (not detached) where high class heating service is
required somewhat similar to apartment buildings. Factor: 550 lb. per square foot
of radiation per season.
.
For apartment houses where high class heating service is required. (Steam off at mid-
,night). Factor: 650 lb. per square foot of radiation per season. For hotels (commercial type) where very high class service is required--24-hour service.
Factor: 800 lb. per square foot of radiation per season.
By assuming 1 sq. ft. of direct low-pressure steam radiation equivalent or required for each 100 cu. ft. of space heated, which seems a fair ratio in New York City, it is possible to roughly estimate the steam required per cubic foot of space prhich is often more easily obtained than the
radiation. Considerable additional data on the heating requirements of various
types of buildings in a number of cities may be found in the section on Utilization in the Handbook Of the National District Heating Association.

CHAPTER XII
GREENHOUSE HEATING SYSTEMS
Temperatures Required, Steam Heating Systems. Hot Water Radiation. Location of Radiation. Air Circulation^
AGLASS structure for horticultural purposes owing to the manner of its construction and the materials employed, offers less resistance . to the penetration of frost and cold winds, than many other kinds of buildings and necessarily requires a proportionally greater amount and a more even distribution of heat.
The heating apparatus must be so arranged as to diffuse an even heat throughout every part of the house, and must be of sufficient heating .
power to increase the heat quickly in case of sudden changes in the weather, and so maintain the desired temperature during the night.
The temperatures usually required depends on the class of vegetation
to be grown and are given in Table 1.
.
Although the same tables, formulae and other data that are used to estimate the heating requirements of systems in the usual- types of build ings are also applicable to greenhouse heating and although the same pumps-, traps, regulators, valves and other devices and fittings are used
in greenhouses as in other systems, there are many differences that must be kept in mind so that due allowances may be made in the specification of a heating plant.
For instance--the highest temperatures in greenhouses are required
at night, whereas with most other systems the maximum temperatures
' are required in the day time.
.
Greenhouse fires are banked almost always during the day throughout
the firing season, even in mid-winter when the sun is shining; this, in marked contrast to practically all other types of heating systems where the fires are banked at night.
Greenhouse radiation is almost exclusively made up of piping. The temperature demands are almost always below 70 deg. and horizontal
piping carries a higher coefficient of emission than the radiating surfaces used in other systems. Special care must, therefore, be given to the selection of the boiler; the demands on it will be higher than with other forms of radiation.
Long runs of pipe are used and expansion and contraction require more consideration than in house-heating work; piping must be tied up,
anchored, installations must be flexible. Although expansion joints are no more desirable in greenhouse heating than elsewhere, expansion must be compensated for by "spring" of pipe and by swivel fitted joints,

expansion joints being used where expansion may not be compensated otherwise.
The height of the heating coils above the boiler affects the design and proportion of the heating mains. In many greenhouses the coils are not more than 1 ft. 6 in. above the top of boiler and the arrangement of the greenhouse doors necessitates some of the coils being much shorter than others. In this case special care is necessary to avoid short circuiting or interference with the circulation of the water in the longer coils.

Private greenhouses and medium size commercial greenhouses are
mostly heated by hot water, and the large commercial houses by steam.
The radiation is made up of coils of pipe placed along the outside walls
and under the benches.
Twenty or twenty-five years ago, it was customary to use 3 or 3^ in. pipe for the hot-water heating coils as the large water contents of this size pipe maintained a steady temperature in the houses where there -was.no night fireman and the gardener gave no attention to the fire
during the night.
,
Now, most commercial houses where hot-water heat is used, the heating
coils consist of 2 in. wrought iron or steel pipe. This smaller size holding much less water per square foot of radiation than the larger sizes, enables the fireman to raise- the temperature of the house much quicker than when larger size pipe is used, and when the sun shines the house can be
cooled off much quicker which is often desirable.
For small houses and long firing periods 3}/2 in. pipe is best.
To proportion the amount of hot-water radiation required for a green-

house, it is almost impossible to figure the air leakage through the laps of the glass. This is not of any importance, however, for in cold weather these laps freeze and seal tight. Those that have had years of experience and specializing in greenhouse heating consider the exposed glass surface and its equivalent only and can guarantee a specified temperature by dividing the exposed glass and its equivalent by the factors in Table 2, which are based on the mean temperature of the water in the coils at 150 deg. and temperature outside at zero.
Greenhouses do not respond to figures in.various ways: Two green houses covering the same amount of ground surface may be quite dif ferent in square feet of exposed glass surface. The workmanship, quality of glass, and exposure to prevailing cold winds must be taken into con sideration. The humid atmosphere of greenhouses--and for some pur poses the atmosphere is much more humid than for others, as for instance, for rose growing--at some temperatures causes the laps to seal with condensation, thus checking, or stopping the air loss through the laps. At lower temperatures, these laps are sealed with ice and at still lower temperatures, the inside surface of the glass is entirely frosted over so that its conductivity is changed. It may be much more difficult to heat a greenhouse at 15 to 25 deg. above zero with the wind blowing, than at zero or below, because the low temperature house may be sealed with ice, as stated.
Table 2 gives the factors for dividing the square feet of glass and equivalent in order to determine the square feet of hot-water radiation required in horizontal pipe coils. These are based on average water tem perature of 150 deg. fahr., a temperature in flow mains of 180 deg. fahr. and outside temperature of Q deg. fahr.
If the house is to be heated by 1J4 in. steam coils use the same divisors as given by Table 2, and the results will give lineal feet of 1J in. pipe coil required, (not square feet of radiation.)

POSITION OF RADIATION
Greenhouses are piped in all sorts of ways to suit the great number of different ideas of greenhouse owners and operators; the location and arrangement of the piping are governed largely by the plant bench or plant bed arrangement, suiting the special requirements of the plants or flowers to be grown in the houses. In houses for vegetable growing, where planting is directly on the floor of the greenhouse, piping should be mainly, and if possible, entirely, on the sides so as to provide the maximum grow ing surface. For rose growing the piping should be more scattered or distributed; than for any other purpose-;--if there, are raised benches, some heating surface must be under every bench; if there are solid beds, some
radiating surface must be in every walk. The bulk of the piping for all purposes, however, should be on the
side walls, or just inside the outer walls of the greenhouse. For sweet pea growing, most of..the pipe surface should be on the side walls and some on.the pipe columns, generally high enough to permit walking under. There is much latitude, however, in the placing of pipe coils.
. AIR CIRCULATION
Recent experience shows that proper air circulation and' conditioning greatly accelerates the. growth of most plants and also prevents the growth of spores and moulds. This is accomplished by the use of proper mechanical apparatus for supplying and exhausting the air and for con trolling its temperature and humidity.

CHAPTER XIII
DOMESTIC AND INDUSTRIAL OIL BURNING
Data on Fuel Oils. Types of Burners. Automatic Control, Installation Data, Costs to Operate, Domestic Heating, Industrial Hearing.
IT is the purpose of this chapter to give the essential data on the equipment and methods to be employed in the use of oil as a fuel for heating and industrial services.
There is claimed for liquid fuel, the advantages of space for storage,
simplicity in location of storage adjacent to boilers and means of trans
portation from the remote points of storage to boiler, reduction in labor
and handling of fuel, the elimination of ash removal, ease of control of
furnace temperatures, and the elimination of the expense of banked
fires. Each case, however, where the liquid fuel is contemplated, will have,
of necessity, to stand on its merit. The operating cost both with oil and
other fuels must be figured and the user will have to evaluate the extra
convenience, after which a decision can be made as to what type of fuel
should be used.
'
In the selection of burner. equipment and in the determination of storage facilities, it is well to decide what grade of oil is to be used, its Baume' gravity, viscosity, flash point, and cold test, or temperature at which it will cease to be fluid.
The uniform fuel oil specifications of the American Oil Burner Asso ciation classify fuel oils according to Table 1.
The furnace oils are used primarily for domestic purposes and do not require pre-heating. The fuel oils with the exception of No. 4 are viscous
at normal temperatures and require pre-heating for satisfactory operation. For commercial oil burning oil No. 6 is used when available because of its higher heat content and lower price. Installations for the heavy oil and
the labor to operate cost more than those for furnace oils but the lower price and higher heat contents frequently justify their use.
Fig. 1 gives the heat contents of various quality oils, per pound and per gallon.
DOMESTIC OIL HEATING
With the large number of domestic oil heating units that are available, it is important to look into the construction of the burner as to design, workmanship and materials, but one of the most important {joints to be kept in mind is the ability of the man making the installation and adjusting the burner to meet the needs of each application and to give the proper service to the installation. Further considerations in making a choice are the adaptability of the particular burner to the boiler, its
Material for this Chapter prepared especially for The Gu.de by Harry F. Tapp and W. F. Goodnpw. 219
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
ability to satisfactorily burn the fuel that is available in a given locality, and its quietness of operation.
DOMESTIC FUEL OILS
Furnace oils, Nos. 1 to 3, are those used for domestic heating installa tions as they are available in most territories and they do not require pre-heating. They are suitable for installations requiring up to 15 gal. per hour, or more, in districts where heavy oil is not available. Burners should be selected that will satisfactorily handle the grade of oil available and owners should be advised to employ, only the grade of fuel for which the burner is designed, except that a lighter grade than the one specified, can be used in most any type of burner.
BURNER TYPES AND CHARACTERISTICS
There are two distinct types of oil burners used for oil heating--the natural draft burner and the mechanical draft burner. Their names
. indicate the manner in which the air for combustion is obtained.
The natural.draft burner requires no motor and usually has no.moving parts. The air for combustion is supplied by the pull of the chimney
and is, therefore, dependent .upon the construction of the latter. This
type of burner is often incorrectly referred to as a "gravity" type burner.
Gravity indicates the manner in which the fuel is fed to the burner and a gravity system is applicable to either natural draft or mechanical draft
burners. This type of burner is more susceptible to changes in the
weather, wind currents about the chimney and other factors which cause
a variation in the draft intensity than is the mechanical draft burner, -
unless the effects of this variation in draft can be overcome in the design
of the chimney, or in the design of the burner, or by the use of a draft
regulator. A natural draft burner is usually limited to small heating
loads, depending in size somewhat on the design of burner, and for'best
operation requires the use of lighter oils. It has in its favor a low first
cost, simplicity of design, noiseless operation and requires no power
for operation.
The mechanical draft burner is motor driven arid often the air for com
bustion is supplied by a fan or blower. Generally where a fan is used it is of
sufficient capacity to supply the entire amount of air for combustion
when the burner is operating at its maximum capacity. Often where a
blower, either centrifugal or positive pressure, is used, only a portion of
the air required is supplied under pressure, the balance being induced by
the injector action of the air from the blower plus the natural draft from

221

American Society- of Heating and- Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
. Another classification of burners used is with reference to the means
employed to prepare the fuel for combustion. The terms are vaporizing
and atomizing burners.
In the vaporizing burner the fuel is prepared for combustion by the
addition of heat. The heat serves to convert the liquid fuel into a vapor
which is mixed with the air for combustion, either just before or during
the combustion process. Blue flame combustion is sometimes advocated
but as a blue flame radiates very little heat it is of no particular advantage
in a boiler or furnace' that has been designed for' coal burning, wherein
the major heat transfer is secured through radiation. By vaporizing the
fuel, moving parts can be eliminated and it is easy' to control at low com
bustion rates. However it requires a light fuel for best results and with
poor design there is the possibility of carbon trouble due to "cracking"
or decomposition of the oil in the vaporizing cha'mber.
In the atomizing burner the fuel is broken into a- fine mist which is
mixed with the air for combustion either just before or progressively
during the combustion process. The particles are so fine that they are
quickly vaporized by the heat of combustion and if properly mixed with
sufficient air will burn with a clean hot flame. There are,many ways to
atomize oil--under pressure through a small orifice,_ by compressed air or steam, by centrifugal force from the edge of a rapidly rotating cup or
disc and numerous other equally effective methods. Any of the methods
used will break the oil into very fine particles and when applied with
intelligence will give satisfactory results. With the atomizing type of
burner cheaper oils may be utilized; they will start readily from a cold
condition and can be applied to installations requiring a high fuel
consumption.
,
The perceptible sound incident to the combustion of oil is dependent
largely upon the means employed to mix the oil and air and the rate of
B.t.u. liberation per unit of combustion volume, :It is obvious that this .
characteristic can be controlled to some degree by the design of the burner and the method of application to the combustion chamber, of the
boiler. A further controllable factor is the amount of mechanical sound;
this will vary with design, mechanical condition and the adjustment of
the unit. The transmission of both mechanical and combustion sounds
can be governed to some extent by the utilization of some means to
absorb vibration.

.
. IGNITION SYSTEMS
In most natural draft burners the oil is lighted manually with a torch through the fire door, although some of them are provided with a r gas, electric or oil pilot, at the option of the owner. Full automatic burners are ignited with either an electric spark from a high tension trans former or from a gas pilot light. This gas pilot, in some designs, burns cqnstantly while in others a combination of the electric and the gas system is used, the spark igniting the gas and the gas flame igniting the oil. The type of ignition system used is dependent to some extent upon the design of the burner and upon the personal opinion of the designer: Several burners are being designed so as to make the means for ignition optional with the purchaser. Where gas is used the application of the
222
Chapter XIII--Domestic and-Industrial Oil Burning
burner may be limited to a territory having a gas supply although it can be used with gas Supplied in containers. Under average conditions the cost of ignition with gas is slightly greater than with electricity.
AUTOMATIC BURNER CONTROLS
There are two systems of control instruments. The low voltage
(15-20 volts) and the high voltage (110 or 220 volts). Both systems are used with complete satisfaction.
A room thermostat is used to indicate the temperature of the room and to control the operation of the burner so as to maintain the desired temperature between limits of plus or minus 2 deg. This instrument is mechanically accurate and will function according to the temperature conditions of its location. Therefore, it should be located with care. Most people prefer to,have it located in the living-room. It should be. on an inside wall about 5 ft. from the floor at the breathing level, pro tected from abnormal drafts such as stairways, or entrances; it should not be placed near chimney, radiators, registers, hot-water or steam pipes or other sources of heat. Special care should be taken to avoid concealed steam or hot-water pipes. Another important factor in maintaining a satisfactory uniform heating throughout the house, which cannot be gontrolled by the thermostat is the matter of installed radiation. It is important that the radiation be carefully proportioned so that when, the desired temperature is reached in the room where the thermostat is located the same temperature will have been reached in all of the rooms of the house.
Apparatus is also usually provided to control the operation of the burner so as to prevent overheating of the boiler or furnace ; in case of a
steam boiler to prevent the development of abnormal pressures, and in case of a hot-water boiler to prevent too high a water temperature.
Control devices are sometimes added for keeping the temperature of
the water in steam boiler below the boiling point during the Summer, so
that the same boiler may be used for continuing the domestic hot-water
service throughout the Summer without sending steam to the heating
system. Such a device is, of course, switched off in 'the Winter. A
safety control is provided to establish a time limit within which the
oil must be ignited every time the burner is started and to shut the burner
down, if for any reason the ignition does not take place or if there is a
- cessation of combustion. Nearly all of the burners use standard control
instruments which in some cases are modified to meet some peculiarity
of the design. The majority of the burners operate on the intermittent
system, but there are a few that operate on a system known as the high-
low, where the burner is continuously operating, the flame intensity being
varied to meet the temperature variation as indicated by the thermostat;
There "is considerable discussion among designing engineers as to
the relative merits of the two systems but as the high-low may have
a slight advantage during the coldest weather, the intermittent burner
will be more economical during the milder weather, so that over the
entire heating season, the total amount of fuel used will be very nearly
the same.

BURNER INSTALLATIONS
,
Most burners are installed in boilers designed for coal and the results in most cases are quite satisfactory. Where a boiler is being purchased for use with oil heating equipment care should be taken to select a boiler that has long flue passes, that do not short circuit the gases from the combustion chamber to the flue. There are several boilers that have been designed especially for oil burning that are very efficient and economical. All oil fuel boilers should be provided with automatic feed water regulator or low water cut-off as the boiler is often neglected on
account of the automatic features eliminating the necessity of a daily
inspection.
Although slightly less draft is required for oil heating equipment than is required for coal fires and a smaller chimney area would be satisfactory,
it is recommended that the chimney be designed to meet the boiler manufacturers' requirements as specified for coal burning. It is pre
ferable to have the oil burner flue isolated fiom other flues as this may be helpful in preventing any mechanical sound from being transmitted
to the rooms of the house. A well designed chimney that will insure uniform draft conditions is just as important to an oil burner as it is to
a coal fired heating plant.
.
With many of the cast-iron water-tube sectional boilers it has been found possible to increase their rating to some extent by using oil as a fuel. This increase amounts to from 10 to 25 per cent, but boiler equip ment should not be selected on this basis without the knowledge and approval of the boiler manufacturer. This increase in rating is usually not possible with round boilers. Where round boilers are used with oil heating equipment it is best to select a boiler that has extra indirect
heating surface in the form of intermediate sections.
In applying oil heating equipment to existing coal burning boilers it is often advisable to baffle the passes in order to increase the travel of the hot flue gases and also to keep them in closer contact with the heat ing surface. In fire-tube boilers it is often desirable to use retarders inserted in the tubes so as to give the flue gases a spiral motion and keep
them in contact.with the surface of the tube.
For warm-air installations a furnace of,welded construction should be selected as it is more suitable for the conditions imposed by oil heating and will require less attention. Cast-iron sectional furnaces will give
satisfactory results if care is taken to insure tight joints and a careful
inspection made each year.
For domestic hot-water supply a steam coil heater is quite satisfactory r with steam or vapor and, with suitable controls on the hot-water tank,
can be used the year round at a very reasonable cost. An iron shell type of heater with local hot-water circulating lines between the shell and the
water of the boiler and with a copper coil in the shell, through which the water in passing is heated, is very satisfactory with either steam or hotwater boiler, but care must be taken to have such heaters of ample capacity and connected to ample size storage tanks, especially with hotwater boilers. This system may also be very successfully used the year around if an automatic control such as described under "Automatic
224
XIIIChapter
--Domestic and Industrial Oil Burning
Burner Control" is used. Small size burners are made that are suitable
for installing under small hot-water heaters and operating automatically
from a control on the hot-water tank. A coil in the combustion chamber
is not generally satisfactory.
.
Oil Consumption-Gallons per Hour
Installations should always be made by trained men under the direc tion of the burner manufacturer as every burner has peculiarities that should be given consideration when the installation is made. It is also important that the burner should* be correctly, adjusted for each instal-

lation as a greater loss in efficiency often results from poor adjustment
rather than from poor design. A burner should have sufficient capacity
to develop full rating of the boiler and it is preferable that it have some
excess; it should also be adjustable over a range from 50 to 100 per cent
rating, see Fig. 2. The flame adjustment is best determined by a flue gas analysis but a good check can be made by noting the color of the
flame. A white flame indicates excess air or insufficient oil, a red smoky
flame insufficient air or excess oil, and an orange flame just tipped with'
red indicates an efficient and clean combustion. The boiler room should
be well ventilated so that the burner can obtain an adequate supply of
fresh air at all times.
Burner and tank installation and all electrical work should be installed
in accordance with local ordinances. If no local, rules are in force the
rules recommended by the National Board of Fire Underwriters should
be followed.
'
TANK INSTALLATIONS
Tank installation should always be made in accordance with local regu lation but usually inside exposed tanks are permitted where the maximum capacity does not exceed 275 gal. This amount may be fed to the burner by gravity if desired and proper precautions are taken to prevent an abnormal flow of oil. These tanks should be installed on non-combustible supports and located at least 10 ft. from the boiler. A very desirable installation is with an outside buried tank, of at least 1100 gal. capacity, preferably located below the level of the burner. Where this is impractical some means must be used to prevent syphoning of the oil from the tank in case of a break in the fuel supply line. There aie several devices of this nature approved by the Underwriters' Laboratory. The use of a large tank eliminates the necessity of watching the fuel supply and will often permit fuel to be purchased at a price enough lower-to pay for the dif ference in installation cost. All tanks should be provided with a direct reading gage which gives a constant check on the amount of fuel on hand.
Tanks should be located so that the fill line is near the drive'or curb so as to facilitate delivery from the tank truck.
CHIMNEY DESIGN
Although slightly less draft is required for oil heating equipment than is required for coal fires and.a smaller chimney area would be satisfactory it is recommended that the chimney be designed to meet the boiler manu facturer's requirements as specified for coal burning. It is preferable to have the oil burner flue isolated, from other flues as this may be helpful < in preventing any mechanical sound from being transmitted to the rooms of the house. A well designed chimney, that will insure uniform draft conditions is just as important to an oil burner as it is to a coal fired,heating plant. For further data on Chimneys, see Chapter VI.
COMPARATIVE COSTS
Comparative cost figures for various fuels depend entirely upon the heat content of each fuel and the efficiency with which each is utilized.

Burners
INDUSTRIAL OIL BURNING
.
'
Atomizing burners are used exclusively for installations with heavy oil. Of these, there are three types: steam atomizing burners, air atomizing burners and mechanical atomizing burners.
The steam atomizing burner has two classifications, the outside mixing and the inside mixing type. With the outside mixing type, the oil is forced through an orifice at 3, comparatively low-pressure and just as it emerges from this orifice it is struck by a jet of steam traveling at a high velocity from a direction at right angles with the flow of oil. The steam jet breaks the oil and injects it into the combustion chamber in a fine spray or mist. The inside mixing type has a turbulence mixing chamber between the steam orifice and the burner opening. The mixing inside the burner permits some vaporization of the lighter hydrocarbons from the heat in the steam so that the mixture issuing from the burner opening lights readily and maintains a steady burning flame. Steam burners require from 1.5 to 5 per cent of the total steam generated for atomiza tion ; 2 to 2.5 per cent being a good average. This average can be easily maintained by correct adjustment of the burners. For the best results the steam should be dry.
Air atomizing burners using high-pressure air are similar in design to those using steam. This type is not used as much as low-pressure air burners. Ordinarily, high-pressure air burners are used where a supply of compressed air is available. Low-pressure air burners use compara tively large volumes of air under pressure of to 2^ lb. per square inch. Air atomizing burners are efficient and if the blowers or com pressors supplying the air are steam driven, they will require approxi mately 2 to 3 per cent of the steam generated for the motive power, but the exhaust steam is available for use in the pre-heaters, so that the steam consumption compares very favorably with steam atomizing burners. The first cost, however, is greater with air atomization than with steam
atomization.
Mechanical atomizing burners are those which atomize the oil without the aid of air or steam, although it is common practice to iise air under low-pressure in connection with mechanical atomizers to further atomize the fuel but this is not essential. The high-pressure atomizer forces the oil through the small orifice under high pressures (100 to 200 lb. per square inch). The oil is given a rotary motion by slots cut tangentially to the diameter of the orifice of the burner, so that the centrifugal force of the oil leaving the orifice acts as an aid in atomizing the fuel. Another type of mechanical burner is the rotary cup burner. In some burners the cup is positively driven by an electric motor or steam turbine and has a fan mounted on the same shaft so as to provide a portion of the air for combustion under pressure to aid in the atomization of the oil as it leaves the edge of the rotating cup. Another type of rotary cup burner has the cup driven by an air turbine utilizing the velocity of low-pressure air from a centrifugal blower. This blower is usually located at a remote point from the boiler and is of sufficient capacity to supply all of the burners in the battery, although there are some installations where each burner has its own individual blower. While the first cost of mechanical atomizing burners is usually comparatively high, they have the advan-
228
XIIIChapter

tage of returning all the steam used for pumping for heating the boiler
feed water. Further advantages of this type are simplicity and eco nomical operation with uniform combustion regulation.
Oil Consumption perSeason in Gallons
Fig. 4. Oil Consumption per Season as Compared with Gas Consumption, for Heating
Burners for commercial installations are usually manually operated although they have semi-automatic controls which vary the amount of air and oil as the load fluctuates.
For some burners, the air for combustion is partially supplied from a
229
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
blower and is used to aid in the atomization of the fuel, the balance
being induced by the natural draft through openings in the refractory
hearth of the combustion chamber.' These openings are usually arranged
to conform to the shape of the flame from the burner so that the air
comes in contact with burning fuel and is not permitted to escape unused
through the boiler passages and up the stack. With other burners there,
is an air register, designed as part of the burner which admits the air
by natural draft through adjustable vanes, giving a rotating motion to
the air as it enters the combustion chamber about the atomizer. Some
installations are provided with forced draft by connecting the air register
to a duct from a fan blower. .
There are many factors that should be taken into consideration when selecting burners for application to a particular installation. A good
burner should be flexible in its adjustments, it should be easily adjusted over a considerable capacity range, it should be suitable for the lowest grade of oil that will be used, and its design should permit the shaping of the resulting flame from the burner so that the flame will fit the com bustion chamber closely. A flame that does not properly fit the shape of the combustion chamber permits air to escape around the flame without mixing with the fuel and is therefore responsible for inefficient combustion results. If possible, it is. best to use a single burner, rather than burners in multiple, wherever the shape of the flame can be adjusted to meet the
combustion chamber requirements and the burner has sufficient capacity and flexibility to meet the variable loads imposed on the boiler. Single burners ordinarily meet the requirements of buildings such as schools, theatres, churches and apartments. For large office and commercial buildings the boilers are usually of such size as to require two or more burners per boiler in order to obtain the required flame application and flexibility of control.
Draft
.
There are several reasons why less draft is required with Oil burning
equipment than is necessary where coal is used as a fuel. The principle
reasons are that the-draft loss through the fuel bed and grate is eliminated, and as a general rule the stack temperatures are lower and the volume
of gas less than with coal. For this reason the cross-sectional area of the
stack may be smaller, some authorities say that it may be safely assumed
as 60 per cent of the area that would be furnished for an equivalent coal fire boiler. In determining the height of the stack, care should be taken
to design a stack that will give sufficient draft for the maximum require
ments of the boiler and no more. It is therefore advisable to follow the
recommendations of the boiler manufacturer and if possible the burner
manufacturer should also be consulted so that the air register or parts
can be designed correctly for the available draft, and in this way provide
for sufficient air to develop the rating of the boiler in the combustion volume available!
,
Furnace
,
Under average conditions the combustion volume should be such that
a release of 40,000 B.t.u. per cubic foot per hour would not be exceeded
at 100 per cent of the boiler rating. This is not the maximum B.t.u.
release possible but it is representative of good practice. .
230
XIII--Chapter
Domestic and Industrial Oil Burning
Where oil burning equipment is applied to existing coal burning boilers
excess draft can be corrected by using a damper. It is also advisable in
many cases-'to use baffles to provide for a longer flue travel and in fire-
tube boilers it is good practice to insert retarders in the tubes which give
the flue gases a spiral motion and keep them in contact with the surface
of the tube.
,.
Auxiliary Apparatus
Regardless of the type of burner used, the installation of the oil system,
which includes the tank, heaters, strainers, pumps and piping, is important.
Tanks should be installed in accordance with the local rules for the storage of oil fuel, but in the absence of local regulations, it is suggested that the rules and regulations of the National Board of Fire Underwriters be followed. The size of the storage tank is often.governed by the amount of space available but it is a question that should be given due considera tion, taking into account the time required for delivery, the daily fuel requirements, also the price in various quantities. Where purchases are to be made-by carloads it is advisable to have at least a 15,000 gal. tank.
While oil consumption cannot be checked by. gaging the tank, an oil meter is the best means of readily determining fuel consumption. It is recommended, however, that each storage tank be equipped with a gage in order to have a constant check of the oil on hand.
A small heater is usually installed in the storage tank around the suction inlet. This heater is used to reduce the viscosity of the oil so that it'can be readily pumped. The oil heaters are usually steam coils, but some local regulations require that this heating be done by hot water only. The oil is delivered from the pump to the supply line for the burners and is passed through larger heaters where the temperature is raised to a point that insures the viscosity being low enough for atomization. This temperature is variable for different oils but will usually be between 150 and 200 deg. fahr. It is important that oil be kept at a uniform tempera ture for satisfactory atomization. This is done by means of automatic' temperature regulators which open and close the steam supply valve to the heater coils. From the heaters the oil is delivered as directly as possible to the burners for atomization.
As all fuel oils contain a certain amount of foreign matter in suspension, it is important that the oil line have large strainers with sufficient screen area to permit their being used for some period of time without the screens becoming clogged and preventing the flow of oil. The best practice calls for strainers in duplicate on the suction side of the pump and additional strainers, known as discharge oil strainers, on the delivery side of the pump. It is important that strainers be located where they are readily accessible for cleaning. For small commercial installations, the oil pumps are usually of the rotary type driven by electric motors and are some times incorporated into the design of the burner. For large installations, steam operated piston type pumps are commonly used. It is recom mended that pumps and heaters be installed in duplicate. This is required by some local regulations where the boiler service is used in connection
with the fire protection apparatus.
With the various types of burners that are being used, there have
231
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
been developed systems which differ in their construction and arrange ment of piping, pumping and tank equipment. One of the most widely used oil systems at the present time is the continuous circulation system. In this system, the oil is pumped from the tank by the oil pump and is delivered to the burner supply line; any excess oil is by-passed through a regulating valve back to the tank or to the suction side of the oil pump. In this way the proper atomizing temperature of the oil is maintained and choking or accumulation of sediment in the supply line is avoided. In the layout of the piping for pre-heated oils it is important to keep the oil supply pipe below the level of the burner and without traps to prevent the formation of vapor pockets which are liable to shut off the fuel supply or cause irregular operation.

HEATING WITH GAS
Data on Gas Fired Boilers and Furnaces, Space Heaters, Combustion and Heat Values, Installation Data, Costs to Operate, Conversions.
USING gas for building heating purposes does not bring in any new heating problems. The only problem peculiar to the use of gas for this purpose is one of fuel utilization. Gas is a fuel with a high form value, easy to handle and control. This ease of control makes possible extreme economy, and gas-burning appliances should, therefore, be designed and selected so as to take full advantage of this potential economy.
Determination on the part of gas companies that building heating is a desirable load to have on their lines has led to an increasing number of such corporations granting materially reduced rates for gas used fot heating purposes.. These communities in which reduced rates for heating purposes have been granted are of a widely diversified character as to size, climate, geographical situation and industries. In natural gas ter ritory, the rates, while showing a tendency to increase, are still such that gas is a cheap fuel for any purpose. The most marked effect of more costly natural gas has been the increasing demand for efficient gas burning appliances.
The average user of gas for heating is in the very enjoyable situation of having the corporation from which he purchases his fuel display a con-, tinued interest in the up-keep and efficient operation of the fuel-burning appliance. A large proportion of the gas-burning heating appliances that are installed are distributed through gas companies. The gas company then stands ready to see that the purchaser of the appliance enjoys unin terrupted and efficient service from it. A notable development of com paratively recent date is the offering of gas-burning boilers designed with the object of meeting the requirements peculiar to large scale heating. Compact and automatic in operation, these large unit boilers are appro priate to the heating requirements of commercial, industrial and insti tutional buildings.
ORIGINAL INSTALLATIONS COMPARED WITH CONVERSIONS
(FOR CENTRAL HEATING PLANTS)
During the period when gas heating was limited to those localities where a cheap supply of natural gas was available, practically all instal lations were conversions; that is, appliances designed fot coal, with gas

233
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
burners inserted in them. This practice has not been generally followed . by manufactured gas companies, for definite economic reasons.
The usual coal-burning appliance is designed so as to present a large ' amount of heating surface to the radiant heat emitted by the flame and fuel bed. Flue passages for the absorption of heat by convection are large because the draft loss, already large on account of the fuel bed resistance, must be kept within reasonable bounds. Heating surfaces in the flue passages must not be so great as to cool the stack gases to a very low temperature, since high stack temperature is required to produce sufficient draft for high rates of combustion. '
When gas is burned in appliances, it may be burned either with a Bunsen (non-Iuminous) flame or with a luminous (radiating) flame. If a Bunsen flame is used and no attempt made to cause this flame to produce radiant heat, such as by the use of refractories; the heating surface in the combustion chamber will absorb heat much slower than it would if a solid fuel were burning in the combustion chamber with an incandescent flame and fuel bed. The next result is that the appliance cannot absorb as much heat as is necessary to produce rating.
By burning the gas with a luminous flame, or in such a manner as to
heat refractory surfaces to incandescence, the heat absorbing in Ike com
bustion chamber of the appliance designed for coal can be made to absorb
the heat they were intended to absorb. The large flue passages, however,
are not efficient as heat absorbing surfaces because they do not bring
the hot gases in sufficiently intimate contact'with water-backed surfaces.
The use of incandescent refractory surfaces, therefore, increases the heat
absorbing capacity of the appliance, but we are still faced with the fact
that if sufficient gas is burned to cause the appliance to deliver rated
capacity, the stack temperature will be so high as to cause the loss of a
great many expensive heat units. If, on the other hand, the rate of gas
consumption is adjusted so as to give a low stack temperature and there
fore high efficiency, the output of the appliance will be below its capacity
when burning solid fuel or liquid fuel.
,
GAS BOILERS
'
Gas boilers have taken on a well-defined form just as coal boilers have. The usual boiler is sectional in construction with a number of independent burners placed beneath the sections. In most boilers each section has its own burner. Some designers fashion their sections so as to. give the effect of a horizontal tubular boiler in order to accelerate water circulation. Other makers either do not incorporate the tubular feature in their designs or depend on internal baffling to give the tubular effect. In all cases the sections are placed very close together, much closer.than would be possible with any soot-forming fuel. The effort of the designer is always to break the hot gas up into thin streams, so that all particles ofthe heat-carrying gases can come as closely as. possible to the heat absorbing surfaces. Because there is no fuel bed resistance and because the gas company supplies the motive power to draw in the air necessary for combustion (in the form of the initial gas pressure) draft losses through gas boilers are low. A gas boiler will therefore operate with a very slight draft, thus making it possible to run at very low stack temperatures.
234
Chapter XIV--Heating with Gas
INSTALLATION AND CONTROL OF BOILERS AND OTHER APPLIANCES
One feature of the piping installation that adds to the satisfactory service rendered by gas boilers is provision for adequate and rapid venting of the air from steam heating systems. If air leaks into the steam distribution system during the period that the gas is turned off, and then vents out slowly when the thermostat calls for heat, the result will be a further cooling of the premises between the time that the thermostat calls for heat and the time that steam reaches the radiators. A freely venting steam or vapor system gives maximum economy and minimum temperature variation. When gas boilers are attached to existing heating plants, it is good practice to check the effectiveness of the venting devices and if necessary, replace them with more effective ones that will prevent the. return of air into the heating system, and also to check the tightness of the piping.
On account of the ease and effectiveness with which the fuel can be, controlled, gas-burning appliances are particularly adaptable to full automatic control. Standard equipment on steam boilers quite generally includes provision for control through a thermostat, steam pressure regu lation, and safety devices by means of which the gas is.cut off either by lowering oif ,the water in the boiler below a safe level, or by extinguishment of the pilot burner. Water boilers are adapted to operation under ther mostatic room temperature control and are also provided with water temperature- control, as well as the safety pilot feature. Warm-air furnaces can be under the control of thermostats in the spaces being heated, as well as thermostats located in the heat ducts for the purpose of preventing unpleasantly hot air reaching the heated spaces. Variations in the pressure under which the gas is supplied to the appliance are controlled by means of a gas-pressure regulator. This is a.standard part of practically all makes of gas-burning heating appliances.
WARM AIR FURNACES
Gas-burning warm-air furnaces are variously constructed of cast iron, sheet metal arid combinations of the two materials. If sheet metal is used, it must be of such a character that it will have the maximum resis tance to the corrosive effect of the products of combustion. With some varieties of manufactured gases, this effect is quite pronounced, and extremely difficult to contend with. Warm-air furnaces are obtainable in sizes from those sufficient to heat the largest residence down to sizes applicable to a single room. The practice of installing a number of separate furnaces to handle individual rooms is peculiar to mild climates, such as southern California. Small furnaces, frequently controlled by electrical valves actuated by push-buttons in the room above, are often installed to heat rooms where heat may be desired for an hour or so each day. The same fundamental principle of design that is followed in the construction of boilers; that is, breaking the hot gas up into fine streams, so that all particles are brought as close as possible to the heating surface, is equally applicable to the design of warm-air furnaces. The remarks in a previous paragraph, relative to the great desirability of using an
235
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
appliance designed for gas, when gas is to be the fuel, perhaps apply even more strongly to furnaces than they do to boilers.
Codes for the proportion of warm-air heating plants, such as that formulated by the National Warm Air Heating Association (see Chapter VIII), are equally applicable to gas furnaces and coal furnaces. Re circulation should always be practiced with gas-fired warm-air furnaces. It not only aids in heating, but is essential to economy. Where fans are used in connection with warm-air furnaces for residence heating, it is well to have the control of the fan and the gas so coordinated that there will be sufficient delay between the turning on of the gas and the starting of the fan, to prevent blasts of cold air being blown into the heated rooms.
. SPACE HEATERS
In residence heating work, the space heater is most commonly used in the form of a radiant heater. Radiant heaters make admirable auxiliary heating appliances to be used during the occasional cool days at the beginning and end of the heating season; when heat is wanted in some particular room for an hour or two. The radiant heater gives off its heat in the form of radiant energy emitted by an incandescent refractory that is heated by a Bunsen flame. Radiant heaters, and all other types of space heaters as well, are preferably flue connected and should never be operated in unvented rooms, particularly bedrooms.
Luminous flame reflector heaters diffuse a large part of their heat by virtue of. the radiating power of the bright yellow flame. They are usually backed by a polished copper sheet which reflects radiant heat into the room.
Convection type heaters are typified by the gas-fired steam radiator, the gas-fired tubular heater (built in radiator form) and the floor furnace. The radiator types of gas-fired heaters provide an economical form, of heating apparatus for intermittently heated spaces, such as stores, small churches, and some types of offices and apartments. Since they give off the greater portion of their heat by convection they do not produce a hot spot within the room and are therefore capable of being operated under thermostatic control. The floor furnace is a convection type heater that is hung underneath the floor. It is generally installed with a duplex register having a warm-air outlet and a cold-air return, so that complete recirculation is secured.
COMBUSTION OF GAS
Most gas appliances consume the gas with a blue or Bunsen flame, although some room heaters use a luminous or yellow flame. Bunsen flames and luminous flames differ in the way in which the air necessary for combustion is supplied. Bunsen type burners are provided with an external mixer, in which a portion of the air is mixed with the gas previous to ignition. This is called primary air. The aspirating effect of the jet of the mixture issuing from the burner ports, and the chimney effect of the gas passages above, draw currents of air past the flame and into it, in sufficient quantity to cause complete combustion; This is known as
236
Chapter XIV--Heating with Gas
secondary air. In order for combustion to be complete and for the products to be free of carbon monoxide, it is necessary that heating sur-. faces be sufficiently high above the burner to prevent the pale blue inner cone, which is a characteristic part of a Bunsen flame, from striking any cold heating surfaces. A yellow tip on the flame indicates insufficient primary air and is corrected by opening the adjustable air shutters.
Some room heaters which consume gas in very small amounts use the luminous flame. A luminous flame is limited in its application to appliances burning small amounts of gas on account of the increased furnace volume required for combustion. No part of a luminous flame can be allowed to touch any cold surface, as this will result in incomplete combustion with the formation of soot and carbon monoxide.
Table 1 shows the heat values of a cubic foot of three common varieties of gas, together with the theoretical air requirements and the air require ments with 50 per cent excess. In practice excess air must be admitted to the fire in order to insure complete combustion.

In designing and installing gas-burning installations, particularly where large amounts of gas are to be consumed, it is important that provision be made for the easy access of sufficient air to support combustion and to provide boiler room ventilation. Very little motive force exists to . draw air into the boiler room. Therefore, the opening through which it enters must be large enough to keep the velocity to a very low value.
It is well to see that appliances have the A. G. ^. approval seal and installation should be made in accordance with the recommendations of A. G. A. Bulletin on Requirements for House Piping and Appliance Installations.
CHIMNEYS
See Chapter VI and the material relating to gas appliance chimneys contained therein.
HEAT VALUE AND EFFICIENCY
When gas is burned a large amount of water vapor is produced as one of the products of combustion. This ordinarily escapes up the chimney, carrying away with it a certain amount of heat. However, when the heat value of gas is determined in an ordinary calorimeter, this water vapor is condensed and the latent heat of vaporization that is given up during the condensation is reported as a portion of the heat value of the gas. The heat value so determined is termed the "Higher Heat Value" and this is what is ordinarily meant when the heat value of gas is specified.
237
American Society 0/ Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
The heat that is reclaimed by the condensation of the water vapor . amounts to about .10 per cent of the total heat value. It is practically
impossible to utilize the entire higher heat value of the gas in any house heating appliance, because to do so it would be necessary to cool the products of combustion down below their dew-point, which is ordinarily in the neighborhood of 130 deg. A stack temperature of 130 deg. is not sufficient to produce a good draft under actual installation conditions.
. The heat balance of a gas-burning heating boiler or furnace, therefore, includes the following items:
Heat in the dry flue gas. Heat in the water vapor. Heat loss due to incomplete combustion. Heat loss through radiation. Heat absorbed by the water or air in the boiler or furnace.
.
'
Table 2, shows the maximum theoretical efficiencies when burning a typical manufactured gas with various stack temperatures. These are based on the higher heat value of the gas, and do not include any cor rection for radiation from the boiler covering. Radiation will reduce these efficiencies as much as 5 per cent, depending on the insulating properties of the covering. The gas is assumed to be burned with 35 per cent excess air and has the following composition:
CO, 8.6 per cent H, 52.5 " "
CH4 31.6 " " C.H. 1.1 " "
C.H, 1.1 " " O, 0.1 " " CO, 1.5 " " N, 3.5 " "

It will be seen from Table 2 that the maximum attainable efficiency under practical operating conditions, which include the necessity of having a stack temperature sufficiently high to insure a good draft, and with a normal radiation loss, is approximately 80 per cent.
RATINGS FOR GAS-HEATING APPLIANCES
Since a gas appliance has a heat generating capacity that can be pre dicted accurately to within 1 or 2 per cent, and since this capacity is not affected by such things as condition of fuel bed and soot accumulation,
238
Chapter XIV--Heating with Gas
makers of these appliances have an opportunity to rate their product in
exact terms. Consequently, all makers give their product an hourly B.t.u.
rating. This is the amount of heat that is available at the outlet of a
boiler in the form of steam or hot water, or at the bonnet of the furnace
in the form of warm air. In the case of boilers, this rating can be put
into terms of square feet of equivalent direct radiation by dividing it
by 240 for steam, and 150 for water. This gives what is called the A.G.A.
(American Gas Association) rating, and is the manner in which all ap
pliances approved by the American Gas Association Laboratory are rated.
To use these ratings it is only necessary to increase the calculated heat
loss or the equivalent direct radiation load by an appropriate amount for
starting and piping, and to select the boiler or furnace with the proper
rating.
.
. It might be stated at this point that the rating given by the American
Gas Association Laboratory is not only a safe rating when considered
from the standpoint of capacity; but is also a safe rating when considered,
from the standpoint of physical safety to the owner or care-taker. The
rating that is placed upon an appliance is limited by the amount of gas
that can be burned without the production of an amount of carbon
monoxide that would be dangerous to human life. This same limitation
applies to all classes of gas-consuming heating appliances that are tested
and approved by the Laboratory. Gas boilers are available with ratings
up to 10,000 sq. ft. of steam, while furnaces with ratings up to about
500,000 B.t.u. per hour are available.
. HEATING COSTS
(RESIDENCES AND SIMILAR BUILDINGS)
The subject of heating costs will be considered under two divisions.
First, the cost of heating the average residence with gas, and second, the
cost of heating larger buildings, such as office buildings. A great deal of
data are available from which to draw conclusions as to the heating cost
for the average residence, but the data pertaining to the cost of heating
large buildings are not so extensive.
.
It is a fact, based upon observation, that the user of a gas-fired central
heating appliance in a residence uses more 'heat during the course of a
year than he does when depending upon solid fuel. The extreme ease of
starting and operating a gas-burning appliance leads to the pilot light
being lighted on the first cool day of the season. Thereafter the system
generally operates entirely under thermostatic control. It is in operation
on many days when very little heat is required, days when it would be
impracticable or inconvenient to keep a coal-fire going. On many cold
days the gas unit is kept operating continuously at maximum capacity,
so that the premises are never permitted to cool below the temperature
ordinarily maintained.
^
.
For a given building maintained at a given temperature, the.curve of
gas consumption follows the curve of outdoor temperature very closely.
The efficiency of the appliance is almost independent of the load, so that
the gas consumption is almost proportional to the temperature difference.
This property of the gas-burning heating plant makes it relatively easy
to estimate the heating costs once the basic relations have been de
termined.

In making an estimate of the gas that will be consumed by a gas-fired heating installation during the average heating season, two variables must be taken into account. The first of these is the size of the heating system, usually expressed in terms of square feet of direct cast-iron radiation. The other one is the duration and intensity of the heating season. This is easiest expressed in terms of degree-days. A definition of the term degree-day may be in order. It has been found that people who use gas under automatic control for heating their homes, seem to require heat on those days when the mean temperature drops below 65 deg. Thus 65 deg. is taken as the datum line from which to measure the number of degree-days in a month or any other given period. The degree-day can be defined as a day on which the mean temperature is one degree below 65 deg., or 64 deg. Therefore, if the mean temperature for each of the 30 days in a month was 64 deg., we would have accumulated 30 deg.-days in that month. By summing up the degree-days for the dif ferent days of the heating season, we get the total degree-days for the entire heating season. Studies of weather reports have established the number of degree-days for over 300 cities in the United States and Canada, and it is easy to calculate the heating demands for a particular city. Gas consumption for a given type and size of installation will always be proportional to the number of degree-days in the heating season for the locality in question. A very complete chart, giving the characteristics of the heating season for all parts of the entire Continental United States, was published by the Heating and Ventilating Magazine in 1925. Table 3 gives values of degree-days for several representative cities.
. By averaging the records of a large number of gas-boiler installations, operating under thermostatic control, with a reduced temperature at night, the following equations have been derived:
For Steam
G
=
110
X RX H
D
64 X R X D For Water G =
H
where G = cubic feet of gas per season R = square feet of direct cast-iron radiation (as calculated) D -- degree-days per season
H -- B.t.u. (gross) per cubic foot of gas
Example.--To estimate the gas consumption for the average heating season for a 200 sq. ft. steam heating system in Chicago.
From Table 3 it is found that the average heating season in Chicago has 6007 degree-days. The gross heat value of the gas supplied to that city is 535 B.t.u. per cubic foot. Substituting in the equation:
110 X 200 X 6007 535
247,017 cu. ft.
Observe in the equation that the calculated theoretical amount of radiation is to be used. By this is meant the actual amount of radiation that is required,, as determined by accepted methods of heat loss calcu lations. Over-radiation will not materially affect the gas consumption while under-radiation will merely reflect itself in inability to heat in extremely cold weather. The amount of gas consumed for heating- a residence during any given heating season may vary decidedly from an estimate according to the method outlined but the variation will be in almost direct proportion to the difference between the actual degree-

PROPORTIONING RADIATION
The charts of Figs. I and 2 graphically represent the number of cubic feet of gas per square foot of radiation for the heating season in any climate, the climate being expressed in degree-days, and are applicable to any heating condition in the United States. These charts give very close estimates when the radiation is proportioned to maintain a maximum inside temperature of 70 deg. and when that temperature is maintained.
It seems hardly possible to formulate a general rule to cover the esti mating of fuel consumption when temperatures other than 70 deg. are to be maintained; at least to formulate a rule based upon the ones just given. For example, the maintenance of a temperature other than 70; let us say 55 deg.; would amount to cutting a much different proportion off. the heating season in San Francisco than would be the case in some . other locality, for example, New York. It would seem, therefore, that in the absence of sufficient data on which to base rules for estimating fuel consumptions in those cases where temperatures other than 70 are to be maintained with the building to be heated, it would be safest to handle each case individually, strictly according to its own peculiarities. A suggested procedure would be to examine the weather reports for the locality in question, determine the difference between the average outdoor temperature and the temperature to be maintained in the heated spaces for each week during the heating season, and then calculate the actual heat loss for each of the weekly periods taken. The total loss for the heating season; which would of course differ in length from the usual heating season, which is based on the maintenance of an indoor tempera ture of 70 deg.; divided by an assumed year-around efficiency for the entire heating plant, which could safely be taken as 75 per cent; would

give a very fair estimate of the annual fuel requirement expressed in g t.u. to be supplied to the gas-burning appliance.
CROSS-CONNECTING COAL AND GAS BOILERS
Quite frequently, when a customer already has a coal boiler in his
home, it is sometimes expedient to leave the coal boiler in place, and to cross-connect the gas boiler with it. Where gas heating is new to the
community, it produces a more secure feeling in the customer's mind
when putting in gas-fired house-heating equipment, if he knows that he
can burn coal at any time he has occasion to.
In hot-water heating systems, it is necessary to valve off the return pipes on the coal boiler, which prevents circulation through the latter when the gas boiler is in use. Since the gas boiler holds comparatively little water and is almost always insulated, no valves are needed on the
return pipes to the gas boiler. Hence, by opening the valves on the coal
boiler, it may be operated independently or in conjunction with the
gas boiler.
.
For steam or vapor installations, it is necessary to vajve off all the
returns and flows on each boiler unless the gas boiler is set so that the
water line in both boilers is at the same level, in which case it is necessary to valve off only the coal boiler to prevent the heating of the water in
the coal boiler when it is not in use.
'
The gas boiler should be set as close to the coal boiler as practicable, and the flows and returns should cut into the flows and returns of the coal
boiler as near to the latter as possible.
LARGE BUILDING HEATING COSTS
!
The foregoing material on the estimating of heating costs when gas is used as the fuel is somewhat more applicable to residences than it is to large buildings or 'to buildings that are used for other than residential purposes. The use of specially designed gas boilers for large installations, such as office buildings, department stores, and other buildings of a similar nature, is increasing so rapidly that it is possible to give fairly accurate data covering several phases of these installations. In com paring the true cost of heating a large building of a commercial, nature with gas, as opposed to other fuels, there are a number of items that should be considered in addition to the bare fuel costs. Rental value of the floor space occupied by the boiler installation and of the space re quired for fuel and ash storage, may have a strong bearing on the true cost of heating. When gas is burned the added feature of cleanliness resulting from the elimination of coal delivery and ash removal may add materially to the attractiveness of the building. It is difficult to evaluate the reduced necessity for redecoration when gas is used, because the frequent changes in tenancy encountered in this class of building always necessitate redecoration. There are many cases however, where this factor,
has a tangible value.
The supervision of a gas-heated plant is reduced to a minimum. The methods of control produce a uniform temperature at all times, with the minimum requirement of making sure that the pilots are operating and that the temperature controls are set at the proper joint. It is often

possible to eliminate on even the smallest job three engineers and coalpassers, substituting therefor about a half-hour's supervision of a build ing supervisor or porter. Gas companies generally provide necessary engineering attention to the installations, such as periodic inspections; which include cleaning, washing down and adjustment of controls and burners.
Gas-fired installations for larger building heating are controlled by the
usual methods, or by the application of distinctive gas methods designed
to prevent sudden large demands on the gas services at the instant when
the boilers are called upon for heat. Where a battery of boilers are
installed, magnetic valves bleeding gas from the tops of unbalanced snap-
action diaphragm valves may be employed under the control of an inter
mittent timing device or of a conventional type of thermostat. By
drilling the bleed orifice on each of the boilers of a different size, the boilers
will come on at intervals, depending on the size of the bleed orifice. In
this way the full demand is not allowed to come on the meters or gas
service instantaneously and full line pressure is available for each of the
boilers as it starts. In the same way, when the boilers are shut down,
the demand is taken off in steps, eliminating fluctuations in the service
pressure.
.
The steam pressure controls on each one of a battery of several boilers may be set to cut off at different steam pressures. By this means, one boiler can be allowed to carry the base load and the other boilers can be ajlowed to come on at different pressure intervals, and thus carry the peak-loads.
' GAS REQUIREMENTS FOR LARGE BUILDINGS
It has been found by analysis of a number of installations that the values given in Table 4 represent the gas requirements of large com mercial building heating installations under thermostatic control, ex pressed in B.t.u.'s per square foot of steam radiation per degree-day.

HEAT INSULATION FOR PIPES AND SURFACES
Uninsulated Surfaces, Cold Surfaces, Hot Water and Steam Lines, Effective Air Velocity, Economic Thickness.
IN order to be able to estimate the savings that can be effected by insulating a hot-water or steam line with a specified covering, it is first necessary to know accurately the heat loss from the bare line.
HEAT LOSS FROM UNINSULATED SURFACES
Fig. 1 shows the loss in B.t.u. per square foot of bare pipe surface per hour per degree Fahrenheit temperature difference for various diameter
pipes.
-
Table 1 gives the B.t.u. loss as well as the loss in dollars and cents and in pounds of coal per 100 lineal feet of bare pipe for temperatures up to 350 deg. fahr. Pounds of coal used are given per 100 lineal feet of pipe per month (assuming continuous use of the apparatus, .70 per cent boiler
efficiency,' and 13,000 B.t.u. per pound of coal). The dollars column represents the money value of the coal used per 100 lineal feet.per month
(assuming coal at $4.00 per ton and boiler room expense at $1.00 pier ton).
The heat loss from bare pipes of various diameters up to 18 in. and at various temperatures can be calculated from the empirical equation
where
Q=
77 + Td -- 103 D0 -11 103 D-" --Td + 1020
Q = B.t.u. loss per hour per square foot of bare pipe surface. D = outer diameter of pipe, in inches. Td = temperature difference between pipe surface and air, deg. fahr.
The loss of heat per unit area from flat surfaces varies greatly with the size and position of the body. The loss from the surface in a horizontal position is entirely different for the same surface in a vertical position. Also, the loss is different for the same flat surface facing downward or upward. For these reasons a single equation or curve has not yet been obtained that will give accurately the heat loss from flat sui faces in various positions. However, until more experimental work has been conducted, it is suggested that the heat loss from flat bare iron surfaces

be taken as equal to 95 per cent of the values given for the 18-in. pipe in Fig. 1.
In order to determine heat losses per linear foot of pipe from known losses per square foot, it is necessary to know the number of square feet area pier linear foot of pipe. Table 2 gives these areas for various standard pipe sizes while Table 3 gives the area in square feet for flanges and fittings for various standard pipie sizes.

Example.--Determine the heat flow in B.t.u per hour per square foot of pipe surface through a magnesia covering 1 in. thick on a 4-in. pipe.
Solution.--The temperature of the pipe is 270 deg. fahr. and the room temperature, 70 deg. fahr. The loss through a covering 1 in. thick on a 4-in. pipe at 200 deg.- tem perature difference from Fig. 5 = 0.395; the factor for magnesia at 200 deg. temperature difference from Table 5 = 1.184; then the heat loss through the magnesia covering = 0.395 X 1.184 X 200 = 93.5 B.t.u. per square foot of pipe surface per hour.

EFFECT OF AIR VELOCITY ON SURFACE LOSSES
The rate of heat loss from a surface maintained at constant temperature is greatly increased by air circulation over the surface. Fig. 8 is based on Langmuir's equations {Trans. Am. Electro-Chem. Soc., Vol. 23). Other investigators have shown even greater increases in rates of heat loss from bare surfaces due to air velocity.
.
Chapter XV--Heat Insulation for Pipes and Surfaces
If the conditions are such that the air may circulate through cracks
and crevices in the insulation, the increases may be far greater than those
given above. Therefore, it is essential that insulation be sealed as
tightly as possible. Pipe insulation out-of-doors should be provided with
a weather-proof jacket, and other.outdoor insulation should be thoroughly
weather-proofed.
'
Fig. 5. Heat Loss through 1 in. thick Covering
In the case of well-insulated surfaces the increases in losses due to air velocity are very small as compared with increases shown above for bare surfaces, because of the fact that air -flowing over the surface of- the insulation can increase only the rate of heat transfer from surface to air ' and cannot change the internal resistance to heat flow inherent in the insulation itself. The maximum increase in loss due to air velocity ranges from about 30 per cent in the case of Tin. thick insulation, to about.,. 10 per cent in the case of 3 in. thick insulation, provided that the insula tion is thoroughly sealed so that air can flow only over the surface.

thickness is desired, this may be accomplished through the use of the

It is impossible to determine accurately the economic thickness of
insulation to use for an underground installation owing to the -many variables which are present such as depth of line, conductivity of ground,

However, the fact that a pair of 10-in. standard flanges having an area of 3.43 sq. ft, would lose, at 100 lb. steam pressure, an amount of heat equivalent to more than a ton of coal per year shows the necessity for insulating such surfaces. Table 3 shows the areas of both standard and extra heavy flanged fittings including the accompanying flanges bolted to the fittings.

trial Applications, Double Control, Test Data on Temperature Regulators.
IN the best functioning of many social and commercial services, auto matic temperature regulation is proved to be necessary, not only to comfort and health, but also to the prevention of waste and to the perfection of manufacturing processes.
Temperature control is usually achieved by preventing overheating. It follows that automatic heat control is a better term than automatic temperature regulation, and it is obvious that automatic heat control in itself must always effect economy.
Overheating, is much more common than underheating, and the results of overheating are more harmful to health and efficiency.
All heating equipment must be sufficient in capacity to render accept able service tinder the most arduous conditions. The most arduous conditions, especially as to extreme cold outside; are in effect only a small part of the heating season. It may surprise many people to realize that in Chicago, for instance, the most extreme cold prevails, only on about six days per year.
During the balance of the heating season the heating apparatus must be operated at much less than full capacity--generally in colder climates at about 40 per cent of the maximum.
Hence there is ample ability and strong probability for overheating during the major part of each heating season unless automatic control of the heating apparatus is provided.
Ventilating systems without automatic heat control give trouble both from excessive overheating and from drafts.
Rooms heated by radiators can be cooled more quickly by opening
windows than by shutting radiator valves, so that it is found that great
heat waste occurs through open windows and open radiator valves, unless
automatic heat control is furnished.
.
Gas and oil heaters and similar devices using quickly responsive fuels become prohibitively expensive for fuel unless automatic heat control is used.
Service hot-water heaters must have automatic heat control, not only for economy and satisfaction, but also to prevent scalding the bodies of users.
Automatic heat control is responsible for a goodly share in the increase in efficiency of modern manufacturing processes, especially in saving of

time. It has made possible the drying of lumber in months, where it
formerly took years.
In the manufacture of prepared foods automatic heat control has
shortened the time and has made the processes exact, saving much
spoilage formerly wasted.
The introduction of automatic heat control in manufacturing plants almost always releases labor which would otherwise be kept occupied
manipulating valves and dampers.
The installation of automatic heat control is a justifiable investment for many heating systems, inasmuch as it very positively contributes to:
(1) conservation of fuel, (2) improvement in health, (3) increase in
comfort and efficiency.
Automatic heat control is a desirable addition to or rather a funda
mental part of the heating and ventilating apparatus in:
1. All public buildings such as schools, theatres, etc. 2. All residences, particularly those using oil or gas fuel. 3. All offices, especially those having many employees. .
Automatic heat control is vitally necessary in order to operate satis factorily and economically:
1. All manufacturing processes in which heat is employed, and where varying tem peratures affect the quality of the manufactured product.
2. All refrigerating systems, especially the ultramodern small automatic unit type.
3. All service hot-water heating systems.
,
Thermostats
Thermostats are very, simple mechanisms. Almost every physical
thing expands or changes under the influence of heat and so can be made
into a more or less effective thermostat.- Liquids can be compounded
which will become gases at any reasonable temperature desired. Metals
having different rates of expansion can be harnessed together so as to
give a greatly increased thermostatic, movement. Common air is an
excellent thermostatic medium, and is used extensively.
,
' There are two general divisions into which devices for automatic heat control may be grouped, as follows:
1. The simpler class includes the type in which the thermostats and the valves and dampers which they operate are self-contained without any outside power, gaining sufficient energy from the thermostat itself (Fig. 1). This class of apparatus is especially adapted to single installations, as for service hot-water heaters, residence heating, and the like. It is suggested that this kind of thermostat be called the unit type. In present commercial practice most unit type thermostats use the expansive power of a liquid or gas, contained in a hermetically sealed receptacle.
2. The other and more elaborate class of thermostat. Fig. 2, includes the type of thermostat which, controls air or liquid or electricity already under pressure, and which by controlling this outside power, operates the dampers or valves against springs^ of weights and similar opposition which will reverse conditions when the outside power is shut off. There is practically no limit to the power which can be applied in this manner.
: It is suggested that this kind of thermostat be called the pilot type. In present commercial practice, pilot type thermostats are used for large buildings, where many thermostats are required, usually with air at>about 15 lb. pressure, from an electric or steam compressor.
.
260
Chapter XVI--Automatic Heat Control
Compressed air is a very reliable agent, capable of great flexibility and elaboration of control, and is of considerable corollary use for remote operation manually of distant^ dampers and valves. Pilot type ther mostats often are used to operate electric switches, the current then passing to electric motors or to magnets which move the dampers and valves. Electricity is so flexible and adaptable that very complicated and elaborate interlocked functions are possible.
Pilot type thermostats are also used to operate valves on pipes from water supply mains, thus using hydraulic power for moving valves and dampers. Owing to silting up of pipes which have sluggish currents and . to corrosion, this method is not always to be advised.
APPLICATIONS OF AUTOMATIC CONTROL
New uses and styles are developed almost daily. Some of the applications will be listed which are believed to be approved methods of installation.
Fig. 1. Example of Unit Type Thermostat
Fig. 2. Example of Thermostat Using Outside Power
Note.--The expansive material in the thermostat acts directly on the diaphragm of the valve, against the spring, which opens the valve when the thermostat contracts.
Tempering Heaters
The tempering heaters, particularly if they are of copper with extended surfaces, and if there is a two-pipe vacuum system of steam circulation having a vacuum pump, should be arranged with a separate outer layer of radiation capable of heating the air from the coldest temperature likely to be encountered to a temperature above freezing. This outer layer should be controlled. by a thermostat on the cold side set to shut off steam when the outside temperature gets warmer than around 34 deg., and set to keep steam turned on when the outside temperature becomes cooler than 34 deg. Th,ere should be an additional layer of tempering heater, controlled by an additional thermostat in the duct beyond the fan discharge after mixing of the strata of air shall have been accom plished by the fan. This thermostat should be set to control the tem perature at the desired degree for cooling the building, such as will give an average temperature at the delivery opening of say 65 deg., or if this causes drafts, at a slightly higher temperature.
If there is no vacuum system of steam circulation, it is decidedly likely' that any attempt to control the temperature by opening and closing steam and return valves will result unfavorably, due to freezing of the radiation and sudden temperature fluctuations in the rooms, as tempering heaters are immediately responsive and flash hot or freeze solid with great rapidity. Where no vacuum system is available it will be wiser
261
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers.Guide, .1929
to control the tempering heaters by means of- dampers, preferably of the interlocked double type operating in a slow or intermediate manner and reducing positively the air volume through- the heaters as they increase the air volume through the by-pass around the heaters. Under this condition no diaphragm valves will be placed on the tempering
heater supply and return connections.
Air Washers
The air washer should invariably be placed between an outer tempering heater capable of warming the air above a freezing temperature, pre ferably controlled by an outside thermostat, and, an inner tempering heater capable of warming the conditioned air to the desired delivery temperature and controlled by a thermostat in the duct on the discharge side of the fan. It is never advisable^ to use a by-pass damper around a tempering heater in front of an air Washer, since the cold air might
cause freezing. Control of humidity is possible by adjustment of the temperature of
the air as it meets the water, and in greater refinement, by control with an additional thermostat, of the water temperature, cooler for lower relative humidity, possibly from a refrigerated supply; and warmer for a higher relative humidity, possibly from a heated supply.
Room Temperatures
.
The room temperatures are controlled by individual thermostats, operating valves on the radiators, and mixing dampers in the flues, as may be necessary. If a vacuum system of steam circulation is installed, the room thermostats should be intermediate or slow moving, while if steam circulation is by single-pipe or any kind of gravity system, the .radiator valves should be operated quickly from full open to full closed. It is important that the mixing dampers in any case shall be moved
slowly and held in intermediate positions.
If there is any room which has a separate supply fan and heating equipment, such as an auditorium or gymnasium heated by warm air and without radiation; as is often convenient and desirable, it is advisable to provide against cold drafts by a variation in the above arrangement,
as follows:
Suppose that there is a fan drawing through a heater composed of five layers, and delivering air directly to an auditorium, or to a picture theatre. The thermostat in the room ordinarily will strive to keep the room cool. If there are many occupants and many artificial lights, the problem will be to keep cool rather than warm, and the room thermostat, in a temperature above that at which it is set to operate, will ordinarily shutoff all heat, while the-fan will deliver unheated-air. In a room at 80 deg. the admission of air colder than about 70 deg. (depending on the point of entry) will cause
discomfort from drafts. The prevention of this unfortunate situation is achieved by installing two ther
mostats, one in the room and one in the air duct, the room thermostat serving merely to admit air to the duct thermostat. When the room is cool, both thermostats' will be closed and warm air will enter. When the room temperature gets to the critical point of the room thermostat, the room thermostat opens, passing air to the duct ther mostat. The.duct thermostat may be set to permit this air to pass on by and to function at the heater to reduce the temperature, but will be set so that when the duct tempera ture lowers to the critical point of the duct thermostat, the latter takes control and
prevents the entering air from getting so cool as to cause drafts.
262
Chapter XVI--Automatic Heat Control
Unit Systems
These individual fan-radiator units are usually equippedi with highly efficient radiators in one section, having one supply and one return valve, and depend on nicely adjusted dampers for mixing the heated air with unheated air to gain a desirable admission temperature. In the milder climates, it is necessary to operate steam supply valves with thermostats arranged to close after mixing damper has been completely closed. Some unit heater manufacturers are furnishing two sets of heating coils' in the unit heaters so that- one coil may be used as a tempering coil. The approved procedure is to use an intermediate or slow acting room ther mostat for operating the mixing dampers in the unit. This thermostat may also operate the radiator valves if a vacuum system of steam circu-
Fig. 3.
Plan of Class Room In an Elementary School, Showing Location of Thermostat
lation is provided. If. the steam circulation is single-pipe, or any kind of gravity type, the direct radiators should have positive thermostats.
The fresh air intakes to the units should be closed when the building is unoccupied, and the human operator cannot be trusted, especially in an installation comprising many units, to do this by manual means at each unit. An excellent recourse is to handle these cold-air intake dampers by a compressed air line running from the control point, say in the boiler room, which by manual opening of a valve permits air to pass to all of the units and to open all of the inlet dampers, the arrangement being such that the dampers will always be held shut by springs or weights when no air is permitted to pass pr when the air compressor is shut down.
Direct-Indirect Radiators
'
Direct-indirect radiators ate usually housed in, having cold-air inlets at their bases, and give rather a make-shift type of ventilation. It is not practicable usually to install mixing dampers, such as are used with fan-units, in these, and since the heating surface is in. a single radiator calculated for the coldest air inlet temperature; regulation is' difficult. The best results are obtained,, where the use of direct-indirect radiators is necessary, by installing slow acting thermostats on special brackets directly above the radiators where the thermostat will be exposed to the air currents from the outside, and arranging for these to receive air only
263
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
through additional thermostats placed in the room and controlling the direct radiators. There should be a vacuum system of steam circulation, and the thermostats should be of slow or intermediate acting type, operating on the supply valves to the radiators.
Hot-Water Radiators . Hot-water radiators lend themselves to automatic heat control, especially where the circulation of water is of the forced type, but as the radiators heat and cool rather slowly, there will be some temperature fluctuation or range at the thermostat, especially when the radiator

surface is excessive in amount. It is wise to use supply valves which
will close tightly and to place lock-shield valves on the return ends of
radiators, to facilitate repairs, and the lock-shield valves may prove
invaluable in equalizing.with great nicety the circulation.
:
In residence heating with hot water it often suffices to install a general
thermostat in some representative room, which controls the draft, as . with coal, or which controls the fire, as with gas or oil, but there should always be furnished in addition a thermostat in the water or circulating
medium which will reinforce the general thermostat and which will
prevent boiling over in case the general thermostat should be subjected
to unfair exposure, such as an open window.
'^
Warm-Air Heating Systems . _
,
With warm-air heating from furnaces, with fans, as in public buildings, it is always necessary to provide a supply of tempered air for cooling after the rooms become warm. A duct thermostat and dampers easily and positively will accomplish this, either by mixing some cold air with
264
Chapter XVI--Automatic Heat Control
..
heated air from the furnaces in an intermediate chamber, or by injecting some hot air from the furnaces into the cold air at the fan inlet, recir culating a measured and controlled part of the air around the furnaces. The room temperatures are controlled by intermediate thermostats and double mixing dampers the same as for a steam system.
Warm-air heating for residences may be controlled by a general thermostat in a representative room, and again, as with hot water, an additional thermostat at the furnace in the warm-air chamber is desirable to reinforce the general thermostat.
Service Hot Water
It is safe to say that no service hot-water heater should ever be installed without automatic heat control. Automatic heat control for this service not only saves fuel, but also prevents scalding and damage to materials. It also brings about a great reduction in maintenance of valves, pipes,

`
In hotels, hospitals, and similar institutions, there should always be at least two independent water heaters, one having very hot water for kitchen uses, the other having wafer of medium temperature for bath and lavatory purposes, both controlled automatically; Thermostatic anti-scalding devices are available for showers and the like, but these will not prevent the great heat waste due to maintenance of scalding temperatures for bath water. No kitchen administration is-satisfied without very hot water, but this demand is intermittent and small in volume as compared with usual bath and lavatory demands.
Oil Burner Control
No oil burning apparatus, unless provided with automatic heat control, can compete in operating cost with coal. An approved method for residence heating with oil is to install the following combination:
1. A general thermostat in a representative room, controlling the electric supply to the burner motor.
2. A second thermostat in the' boiler or furnace which will take control should No. 1
265
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
thermostat fail to prevent improper or unsafe temperature being maintained inside, the heater.
3. A third thermostat at the gas pilot which, unless kept warm by the pilot flame, will bring about the opening of the main switch to the burner motor, thus insuring that no fuel shall be injected unless a flame is in being surely to ignite it.
There are many other combinations for giving assured protection with oil burners other than thermostatic devices, such as pressure and weight-actuated mechanisms, but it is doubtful whether they are as reliable as the thermostatically controlled schemes.
Where electric ignition for the intermittent oil spray is used, it is safer to provide for a continuously operating spark, and to have a thermostat in the heater which will cut out the main switch if the tempera ture ever gets lower than the critical point which indicates failure to ignite the spray.
Gas Burning Appliances The same high intensity as with oil fuel makes it necessary to depend
on thermostats to prevent waste, and the intermittent operation and

necessity. for a pilot flame makes it wise to install for gas the same combination of three thermostats as for oil burners, one on the general service, one in the heater, and one on the pilot flame.
Automatic Fuel Burner Control for House Heating and Water Heating
The automatic burning of fuel for house heating has made rapid progress within the last decade, and it may be said this entire industry is basicly dependent upon automatic heat control. Liquid fuel such as oil, solid fuel such as certain coals, an'd gas are all responsive to automatic control through what might best be called a system of controls. The thermostat on the wall, of say the living-room, is the master device but may be made inoperative through the functioning of one or several other
devices more properly called safety devices. These are all more or jess
well understood.
'
In practically every home there are two . primary heat requirements, that of warming the house and that of heating water for domestic needs. One automatic fuel burner may perform this double function and thus
give service through the entire year.

and control valve with thermostat, with the added safety controls to fit
the fuel burner employed.
'
The thermostatic heat controls consist of room thermostat and tank thermostat.
These thermostats are so interconnected that readiness to serve on the part of the fuel burner is maintained while both or either heat or hot water is wanted. When no heat for warming is wanted the room thermostat simply closes the heating equipment off and the burner continues to maintain the hot-water supply, and that at very satisfactory efficiency. The tank thermostat closes the burner off whenever the heating valve to the house is closed and the water in the tank is at the temperature for which it is set. There is a pressurestat for closing the burner off when the steam pressure reaches a certain point.

One heat equipment in this way takes the place of two. A steam heating coil with an automatic control valve may also be added to hot-water tank so that the water in the tank may be heated by steam so long as any Steam is present in the boiler, thus avoiding the contingency of having to run the burner for heating the water by the slow process of heat transfer from the water in the boiler to the water in the tank at such times as steam' is not required in the house. An aquastat may also be added to a steam heating boiler for limiting the temperature of the water in the boiler to a degree below the boiling

Central Station Heating Control
Central plants should always be governed by thermostats as a measure
of economy, and many public service companies require the installation
of automatic heat control for this reason. Where economy is of greater
consideration than comfort, it often suffices to install one unit type
thermostat in a representative room, this controlling a main valve at
the entrance to the building.
,
Where steam at appreciable pressure is furnished from a central station, a combination of pressure reducing valve and cut-off valve, con trolled by a thermostat in a representative room, gives excellent results,

point so that the apparatus may be used for heating the hot water at such times as steam is not required in the house. The connection between this aquastat and the electric control of the burner is arranged with a cut in and out switch so that its fun6tioning may be cut in and out at will and in this way the heating boiler is used for heating water in summer or spring and fall without furnishing heat to the house.
-An unique arrangement of control for a heating boiler is to have a coal fire operated from one end of the boiler furnace and controlled from a general thermostat operating the drafts and an auxiliary oil burner in stalled at the opposite end of the furnace controlled fromjyr-aquastat in the water of the boiler. With this system of control the coal fire may be made to take the burden of the load, but in case the coal fire is neglected or fails otherwise to meet the demand the oil burner automatically comes in. This makes a very reliable and economical arrangement where it is not desirable to use oil for the entire load on account of its cost.

as it automatically varies the steam pressure in the radiating surface within a considerable range, giving excellent regulation as well as economy. (See Chapter XI for further data on central heating system control).
Laundry Machines
Many laundry machines, especially for washing woolens, are improved wonderfully in service by the installation of automatic heat control.
By using automatic water mixers on the water supply pipe lines,
water at the exact temperatures desired will always be delivered, no
matter how hot the warm water may be, thus preventing the aggravating
and expensive shrinking of woolen goods so common when water over
about 80 deg. is used.
..
There is also a tremendous fuel saving by preventing overheating of all laundry water, while still insuring, by use of thermostats, that the* water always shall be hot enough for each specific condition.
Refrigerating Units
In most buildings where refrigeration is used, common practice until recently at least, has been to install a central system, where cold brine is

produced, and which is pumped through insulated pipes to the various
out-lying boxes.
Since the brine temperature is usually much lower than the desired temperature for many of these boxes;'the automatic heat control of each unit is desirable and effects a considerable saving in operating cost.
Unit type thermostats are especially well adapted to this service and are available for control of such comparatively cool substances as drinking
water, or storage compartments in ice boxes. The low temperature
thermostats..are placed in the water pipes or in the air chambers with
balanced valves in the brine pipes, and automatic control, without atten tion and enduring for many years without adjustment; goes into effect
forthwith.
.
The normal cost' of producing refrigeration is approximately fifteen * times, per degree difference in temperature, the cost of heating a given space. Products requiring refrigeration are often very sensitive to temperature fluctuations. It is, therefore, highly desirable to auto-. matically control refrigeration sources both from the standpoint of
economy in cost of producing refrigeration as well as in the safe guarding
of the refrigerated products.
. ''
DOUBLE THERMOSTATIC CONTROL
A great majority of buildings are heated to normal temperatures from
nine to 12 of the 24-hour per day for five days of the week. Many are so
heated but six or seven hours Saturday and are not necessarily heated,on
Sunday, except to prevent freezing. This would indicate that a normal
'heating week would have 56 hours normal temperature out of lp8 hours
total-or 33 Mi per cent. During the remainder of the time in ^nany parts
of the United States, it is necessary to have some heat to prevent freezing
or excessive cooling.
'.
." .
It has been demonstrated clearly that it is more economical to carry a
building at a temperature somewhat lower than the normal temperature
270
Chapter XVI--Automatic Heat Control
during the night and periods of non-occupancy than it is to allow the building to cool to a point that requires excessive pressure or heating effect to retum it to normal temperature. It has been the practice to sub-divide heating mains so that heat may be furnished to parts of buildings which are occupied during periods when the building is not completely occupied. In this manner, the major portion of the building may be dropped to its economical unoccupied temperature.
Thermostatic equipment is now available to satisfy this demand in that each thermostat is provided with two separate temperature sensitive elements either one of which may be selected at will-from the boiler room or office of the building. One sensitive element is set at- a normal or operating temperature, say 76 deg., while .the second temperature sensi tive element is set at any lower temperature which it may be desired to maintain at times when the normal temperature is not required, say 50 deg. This apparatus is furnished where desired with individual switches on each thermostat so that the occupancy of any room may restore the temperature of that room to the normal from the low tem perature. Thermostats can be so grouped on the air piping that any series of rooms throughout the building may be operated simultaneously from a remote source without the use of separate steam mains and return piping. This apparatus is, therefore, available on many jobs at practically no extra cost when credit is taken for the separate steam mains.
The double system of automatic temperature control assists in. main taining any building at a uniform low temperature throughout the nonoccupied period, thereby eliminating the excessive cooling, in parts of the building remote from the steam source which are the first to cool and the last to heat. During the past few seasons, economies have been demon strated ^mounting to 40 per cent over normal hand operation by the use of the double control apparatus. The double control system is applicable to factories where certain portions of the building must be maintained at a uniform temperature continuously or where operated overtime or unusual periods. It is also applicable to club, school and office buildings.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS
Automatic control of heat in manufacturing processes is believed to be still in its infancy. The promotion and development of automatic heat control was hard pioneering for many years. The reward for this pioneering seems to be in process of realization in the fabulous uses of
thermostats in industry.
. Without automatic heat control in innumerable manufacturing pro cesses, what now are sure and perfect reactions would be only occasional successes, and the cost of production would be much higher.-
In beet sugar making there are at least eleven processes where exact thermostatic control is imperative. In tanning leather there are at
least fourteen such stages.
Without exact temperature and humidity control, no fine printing is
possible, and no good weaving or dyeing is assured.
In the preparation of most food products automatic heat control is
vital. Thermostats prevent scorching in clothes dryers, They reduce
evaporation and are a safety device for oil storage tanks.
They are essential to control gelatine temperature in making photo7 graphic films. They are used to control paraffin vats in making waxed paper, milk containers, etc.
They control baking ovens, no matter how the ovens are heated.
They are in use to an enormous extent in the drying and hardening
of paints and enamels.
.
Automatic Control of Unit Heaters
The steady advance of the use of unit heaters for industrial heating has made automatic temperature control available with comparatively small expenditure in practically- all buildings thus heated. Several general -methods are in vogue; first, for small installations with single orj at the most, two or three unit heaters, a very satisfactory method is to use an electric thermostat operating through a relay or direct control switch; second, where a large number of unit heaters are furnishing ventilation as well as heat it is advisable to provide them with pneumatic control. The . unit heaters may be controlled by means of the standard gradual acting type thermostats controlling steam supply which may be further sup plemented with a pneumatic governor switch arranged to automatically shut off the heater when the temperature reaches a limiting degree^ ,, - -
An arrangement of this type where several unit heaters are furnishing heat for a single room will tend to keep the air in circulation and allow a few heaters to furnish the necessary heat with a minimum expense for electric current as well as for steam. With the last named arrangement, double automatic temperature control" may be used which will auto matically shut down all unit heaters during the non-operating period until the temperature falls below the safe operating point. Most of the floor type of unit heaters have a normal gravity circulating capacity about one-third of their heating capacity. This is enough to heat many build ings for average outside temperatures and also enough to overheat buildings for outside temperatures above the average. It is desirable,
272
XVI--Chapter
Automatic Heat Control
therefore, to control the steam as well as the electric supply to floor type unit heaters.
Unit Control
Automatic control of temperature in any given space as for instance the warming of a room or a group of rooms may be accomplished in several ways. If several rooms are heated from one source and controlled with one thermostat the control may and probably should be called Group Control, or Zone Control, or Master Control, or possibly Service Control, but where each radiator or unit heater is controlled by individual thermo stat the control may be called Unit Control and this type of control may be of the pilot type with thermo element relaying to control valve or of
Fig. 13. Variations in Room Temperatures with Unit Control and Poor Circulation of Air
the self-contained type with thermo element an integral part of control valve.
Thermostatically ControlledWater Mixers
Hot and cold water may be thermostatically mixed to a predetermined temperature and delivered for various purposes ranging from the control of hydrotherapeutic hospital equipment to gang shower baths and various industrial uses where warm water of a specified temperature is needed.
This automatic water mixing is accomplished by an apparatus con sisting of a shell enclosing a three-way valve operated by a thermostatic motor, the shell having hot and cold water inlets, an outlet for delivery, and a controller handle, or wheel, by which the apparatus may be adjusted for any desired delivery temperature.
A typical application of this thermostatic water controller is to have one connected in on the hot-water supply to a group of showers, the instrument being so arranged as todimit the hot-water temperature to a safe degree (usually 110 deg. fahr.) leaving it to the bather to mix as much cold water with it as he chooses through the ordinary hand valve.
Another application is to use four of these controllers on the hot-water
273

supply to a progressive or lane shower bath, such as is used in connection with swimming pools. The lanes are separated by perforated pipe railings directing horizontal sprays toward the center and the bathers on their way to the bath pass through four different temperature zones beginning with 105 deg. and ending at 60 deg. fahr.
PERFORMANCE AND REGULATION OF AUTOMATIC HEAT CONTROL
Variations in the performance of automatic heat control are sometimes misunderstood and in consequence the choice, regulation and care of such controls is improperly handled.
In order that a thermostat may function there must be a certain amount of temperature change in the medium being controlled; depending upon the sensitiveness of the control instruments and the rapidity with which the average change in the temperature of the medium, whose temperature is being controlled, is transferred to the medium surrounding the thermostat.
When the thermostat operates the steam or hot-water supply to a
time in mnures
Fig. 14. Variations in Room Temperatures with Unit Control and Poor Circulation of Air
radiator or heater is automatically shut off or turned on, as the case may be, but some time must elapse before this takes effect upon the tempera
ture of the medium being controlled.
'
When the supply of the heating medium is being cut off the remaining steam or water contents must condense or cool and when being turned on new steam or water must be supplied. In the' first instance the material of the heater must be cooled and in-the second instance it must be heated
before full effect is exerted upon the medium being.controlled.
j
The same principles are true of other systems of control such as for coil
or oil fired boilers or furnaces, where, the fire must be increased or de creased and the material and water in the boiler and system, must be . cooled or.heated; for refrigeration; where the brine and materials in the system must be cooled- or heated and in hot-water systems where the
water and materials must be heated, before full effect is felt where the
thermostat is usually located.
'
The operation of these and other such factors, over which the auto matic control usually has.no jurisdiction, tend to cause variations in the.
temperature of the medium being controlled, the amplitude and periodicy of which depend upon the heating medium, system and the. -sensitiveness
of instruments.
274
Chapter XVI--Automatic Heat Control
In testing the accuracy of controls the sensitiveness of the thermometers, the movement of the medium around same also play an important part. All temperature measuring instruments have a lag due to the time required to heat their expansive media. . Recording instruments have still more lag, due to the poorer, circulation of the surrounding media. Sling instruments or instruments with forced circulation of the surrounding media are more sensitive than stationary ones.
Some of the later types of thin non-ferrous heaters have less lag than the older cast-iron types, which makes it more important to have good circulation of the medium being heated, between the heater and the thermostat, so as to prevent overheating when the heating medium is turned on and underheating when it is shut off.

The bulb of the instrument containing a volatile fluid was exposed in the room near the breathing zone. The room temperature had a definite cyclic, variation resembling the sine curve wave, Curve (.4) represents the room temperature fluctuation obtained by a sling psychrometer; curve (B) shows that recorded by an ordinary mercury ther-

The true fluctuation in temperature is about 8.9 deg. fahr. according to
the sling psychrometer, although that shown by the mercury thermometer
is only 3.5 deg. and that traced by the recorder about 1 deg.
Fig: 14 shows the extent to which the sensitivity of the regulator was increased by blowing air, at a velocity of 650 ft. per minute, over its bulb,
all other conditions remaining the same. Equally good results were
obtained by placing the thermostatic bulb in the exhaust duct leaving
the room. This is a better arrangement, because the temperature of the
. air in the exhaust represents more nearly the average temperature of the
room.
Table 1 gives data on the performance of several well known tem
perature regulators. Apparently thermostat 6 was not designed for the
purpose for which it was tested.
In plenum systems of heating and ventilation, temperature fluctua
tions between 4 and 5 deg. fahr., are not of sufficient magnitude to
produce discomfort, if the variation is partly above and partly below the
proper temperature, so as to average the proper temperature, and if the
oscillations in temperature occur frequently enough to avoid sensations of
coldness or warmth. A systematic temperature variation of this order is,
in fact, very agreeable because of its stimulating effect on the skin. However, little is now known concerning what should be the magnitude
and cycle frequency, of such temperature oscillations. _ When these
become known, the thermostat, in conjunction with mixing dampers,
will probably lend itself remarkably well to controlling both of these
factors.
In rooms ventilated spontaneously and heated by direct radiation,
the problem of temperature control is much more difficult than in plenum '
systems. As a general rule, the tendency is toward overheating; because
there is ample heating capacity--in fact too much for the average winter
conditions--but no adequate means for cooling the room once it becomes
overheated. The result is that the greater part of the temperature wave
produced by the regulator lies above the proper room temperature and
remains in this warm region too long, until the excess heat is dissipated
to the air out-of-doors by transmission through the exposed wall and
glass, or by opening windows.
Care should be taken to choose the most sensitive thermostat for this
purpose, which should be set according to indications of the sling psy
chrometer.
-
Similar precautions should be taken in split systems of heating and
ventilation. The temperature of the air delivered by the ventilation system should, under all conditions, be several degrees lower than the
temperature at which the room thermostat is set. If this precaution is
not taken, the duct thermostat might fall in synchronism with the room
thermostat and produce overheating.

HEAT EXCHANGERS FOR WATER AND OIL
Factors in Heat Transfer, Critical Velocities, Variation of Heat Transfer, Design of Exchangers, Operating Quotations, Economics of Design.
IN problems of fluid friction and heat transfer to fluids, the concept of a fluid film has become; of great use. This surface film varies in thickness with velocity and viscosity and, hence, heat transmission through the film, and friction drop of a flowing liquid are dependent upon these and other properties of the liquid. Results of various experimental determinations of friction drop and of heat- transfer from the wall of a tube to a liquid flowing inside; it are best Correlated by the use of the Nusset type of equation: :

, h = heat transfer coefficient. D = diameter of pipe in inches. K = thermal conductivity. V = mass velocity. z = viscosity.
. c = specific heat. F, f -- functions of the groups of variables.
The various factors are arranged in dimensionless groups, and the effect of each group upon the-heat transfer rate is found, based upon experi mental results.
In general, there are two flow conditions of a fluid inside a tube. These are determined by its physical properties and the diameter, length and condition of the tube through which it flows. The velocity of the liquid past the surface is the major factor in film thickness, but since this velocity is difficult to determine, the average velocity of the fluid is used in calcula tions. For very low velocities or for high viscosity, the fluid may be considered to. move as a series of concentric cylinders sliding in one another. Under this condition the friction drop of a liquid along a tube varies directly with the velocity, if viscosity remains constant. For this type of flow, the average velocity is approximately half the maximum

value found at the center. This condition is termed viscous or straight line flow. If the velocity be gradually increased and eddy currents set up, the average velocity becomes much greater than one-half the maximum, the . friction drop increasing closely in proportion to the square of the velocity. This condition is termed turbulent flow, .and the velocity at which the type of flow changes is called the critical velocity. The change is usually not well defined and often passes through an intermediate stage.

In heat transfer equipment, the velocity should preferably be main

on data below the critical range are very unreliable, and also the heat
transfer rate is low. There is always an additional turbulence set up near

the entrance and exit of a short tube, hence the heat transfer for a short tube is greater than for a long one.
Correlation of heat transfer data was delayed many years by the search for equations to fit overall coefficients. Greater progress was made by resolving the overall thermal resistance into parts and treating it in a manner analogous to an electric circuit. Temperature corresponds to voltage, heat flow to current, and thermal resistance to electrical re sistance. The individual resistances of cooling film, metal, scale, and heating film added together give the total resistance, and the reciprocal of this sum gives the overall conductance or heat transmission coefficient. Fig. 1 shows the temperature relations existing during heat transfer through two fluid films and a metal wall.

A formula given by McAdams and Frost from experiments on water, using film temperature is:
r = ratio of length of tube to diameter.
As an approximation, the above formula may be used for liquid flowing outside tubes by using four times the hydraulic radius for D. The

turbulence is usually much greater than is indicated by this means,
especially when cross flow occurs.
The value of h found from the equations is, of course, only the heat
transfer rate from the tube through one liquid film. If the problem to be
considered is the transfer of heat frbm oil to oil, or from water to water,
the reciprocals of the three heat transfers through heating film, tube,
cooling film, and any scale or dirt, must be added to obtain the overall
resistance.

In the absence of non-condensable gases, the coefficient of heat transfer
from condensing steam to a tube may be from 1500 to 3000, or rs = 0.0007
to 0.0003. Oil in the steam increases the resistance greatly and. the
resistance for condensing oil vapors, benzol, or other materials is much
higher than for steam. The resistance of the tube wall to heat flow can
be easily calculated, knowing the conductivity of the metal. It is based
upon: the^logarithmic mean diameter of the tube, which can be taken as
the arithmetic average diameter, with very little error in all ordinary

base, the resistance of the outside film would be multiplied by

where
D = inside diameter of pipe in inches. -Da = average diameter of pipe section in inches. D0 = outside diameter of pipe in inches.
The next step is to determine the average temperature difference, which is the driving force. This value is usually a logarithmic function of the difference in temperature between the two fluids at entrance and exit of an exchanger.

gives a convenient means of estimating the viscosity at any other tem perature. Fig. 6 gives the conversion from Saybolt Seconds Universal, to kinematic viscosity which is absolute viscosity in centipoises divided by specific gravity. The viscosity of water at 68 deg. fahr., is one centipoise.
The heat conductivity K, for liquids, is usually assumed as a constant, but it is possible that improved results would be obtained if this were taken corresponding to the average main stream temperature. Data on the variation of K with temperature are scarce, but for water, an equation is given as K -- 0.304 (1 + 0.00175 /) where t is the temperature in degrees fahr. In the data of Morris and Whitman on oil (K) is taken as a constant with a value of 0.078.
The variation of the specific heat of oil with temperature has been
investigated by many, especially in the lower ranges. Fig. 7 gives the
results of the work by Fortsch and Whitman.
.
Figs. 8 and 9 give the results of the work of Morris and Whitman on heat transfer. In their work the end effect of the tubes was eliminated, and the properties used are those of the main stream. They recommend that values 25 per cent lower be used for cooling, and that a suitable correction be made for end effects.
As a check upon a given design, the following shows good general practice for the overall coefficient of heat transfer for different classes of apparatus, using tubular exchangers.
Condensing steam to water 300-500, Water to water 150, Steam to oil 75, Water to oil 50, Condensing oil vapors to water 60, Condensing oil vapors to oil 40, and Oil to oil exchanger 25.
The above figures can vary widely as they are naturally dependent upon individual conditions of velocity, viscosity, turbulence, diameter of tubes, and presence of scale, etc.
The design of the tube bundle in an exchanger should be made com patible with the available head. In this connection McAdams states that the friction drop in tubes when a liquid is being heated is lower than is expected from ordinary isothermal friction data. This is probably due to the reduction of the viscosity of the liquid film next the wall. As a rough indication of the magnitude of this correction the friction drop is reduced about 1 per cent for each 3 or 4 deg. fahr. temperature dif ference between wall and liquid, depending on the type Of flow.
Many problems involve the transfer of heat to a relatively stagnant body of water, such as storage heaters. In this case, the velocity of the water due to convection currents is difficult to estimate, hence an assump tion of the value of h must be made on the basis of experience. Tests on condensing steam in deep tanks with cast-iron sections have shown a value of k from 80 to 100, and a standard design of copper coil water heater is based on an average h of 120. Tests on similar oil heaters consisting of pipe-coils inside large tanks, show values of h from 4 to 20. This would depend greatly upon the viscosity of the oil.
OBTAINING QUOTATIONS
In obtaining quotations on heat exchange equipment, give as much data connected with the problem as possible. The more completely this
285
/
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
can be covered, the closer the design can be fitted to the requirements. The following outline may be followed:
1. Normal quantities of liquids and / or vapors. 2. Normal desired temperature of liquid and / or vapors entering and leaving.
3. Maximum and minimum temperatures.
4. Overload requirements. 5. Permissible friction drop (pressure drop each side).
6. Specifications of liquid.
For oil or other liquids, give specific gravity, viscosity, specific heat, latent heat, water content,, wax content, sediment content, corrosive or erosive characteristics, temperature fluctuations, pressure pulsations. Give a distillation curve for petroleum, if possible, as vaporization of oil must be accommodated by vents, etc., to prevent vapor binding.
ECONOMICS OF EXCHANGERS
In the design of heat exchangers, there is always one set of conditions which will give the desired result at a minimum overall cost when initial investment, carrying charges, and operation cost are all taken into account.
In some cases it does not pay to install a very efficient exchanger because
the additional heat recovered over that which would be saved by a less
efficient exchanger would cost more than heat brought in from an outside source. On the other hand, an exchanger may increase plant capacity
out of all proportion to its cost, and this may justify an exchanger which
would not be economical on a heat recovery, basis only.
In general, the higher the velocity which can be allowed in an exchanger, the lower will be its cost for a given result. In many cases an exchanger is
specified to give a pressure drop of 2 or 3 lb., when there is available 30
or 40 lb.

Installation Data, Traps.
THE various kinds of pumps ordinarily used in connection with heating and ventilating installations may be. classed under the following heads:
(1) Boiler feed pumps, (2) condensation return pumps, (3) return line vacuum heating pumps, (4) sump pumps, (5) forced circulation hot-water heating pumps, (6) circulating pumps for water, brine, etc., (7) refrigeration pumps and compressors.
BOILER FEED PUMPS
Boiler feed pumps may be of the following types:. (1) direct acting steam-driven reciprocating pumps, (2) power-driven reciprocating pumps, ' (3) centrifugal pumps, (4) screw or other similar type pumps.
Capacities
The capacity of a boiler feed pump should be based on 3.45 lb. of water per hour per. maximum boiler horsepower served, with a slippage allowance of 10 per cent in the water cylinders and a factor of safety allowance of two for intermittently operating pumps and, one and one-half for continuously operating pumps, to provide for unusual conditions, such as low water in boilers, drop in steam pressure or excessive loads.
Piston Speeds and Efficiencies
.
For reciprocating boiler feed pump not to exceed 10 times the square root of the number of inches in the length of stroke of the water pistons.
Direct acting reciprocating steam driven or power driven boiler feed pumps are generally found to be more efficient for smaller installations especially with widely fluctuating loads as the efficiencies of centrifugal boiler feed pumps drop off very rapidly for the smaller sizes of pumps and for low load conditions. For this reason centrifugal pumps are not usually employed for installations of less than 1000 boiler horsepower.
fr thiS Chapter of The Guide was prepared especially by Otto E. Goldschmidt and
287

Screw pumps may be used with good economy for small capacities. Since the capacity and pressure at which screw pumps will operate is almost infinite, we can only give some idea of their capacity. Efficiencies range frcm 60 to 70 per cent.

The speed of crank shafts of power driven reciprocating return line vacuum pumps should not exceed 40 r.p.m.
The type of drive to be employed between motor and . pump may be
chain, belt or gear. When gears are used they should be of a type which
will be quiet in operation.

The receiving tank may be placed either on the suction or on the dis charge side of the pump; generally on the suction side of centrifugal or rotary pumps and on the discharge side of reciprocating pumps.
The capacity of receiving tanks, when placed on the suction side of pumps, should be proportioned to the operating condition to be met. To this end its capacity should be such as to retain the condensate and to take care of fluctuations between the rate of returning condensate and the rate of the pump delivery. This capacity in case of automatically controlled units should be the capacity of the tank in gallons between the high and low water' levels in the tank, as determined by the water line control, and when not. otherwise provided for, should be in accordance with Table 12.
Air capacities of vacuum heating pumps are in general referred to as equivalent cast-iron direct radiation, and may be assumed on a decreasing

ratio as the system increases in capacity, in accordance with Table 13. It should be noted that while water capacities of pumps for fan blast heaters are to be based upon their equivalent in direct radiation the air capacities for this class of radiation may be considerably less than that corresponding to this equivalent.
The air capacity measurement of a vacuum heating pump should be made at a point in the main vacuum return line close to and before it enters the pump strainer, while the pump is in operation, under the

The water capacity of vacuum heating pumps, when operating against
8 in. of mercury vacuum, should be not less than 2A lb. of water per
hour per square foot of equivalent cast-iron direct radiation, based upon condensate at a temperature of not over 180 deg. fahr. when the pump is delivering water against a specified gage pressure at the water discharge of the pump. For pumps handling both air and. water the above water capacity must be delivered when the pump is maintaining a vacuum.of -8 in. of mercury and handling air through a standard orifice corresponding to the air capacity of the pump as herein specified.

--Pumps and Traps for Heating and Ventilating Equipment
In estimating the water capacity no additional allowance need be made for covered mains or risers, but exposed mains or risers used as heating surfaces should be included in computing the equivalent square feet of direct radiation.
Steam driven vacuum pump size determination should take into con sideration the following variables:
(a) The degree of tightness of system, (6) the efficiency of the radiator traps, (e) the temperature of the condensate at the pump, (d) the probable cooling effect of the return piping, (e) the use of lift points in the return, (/) vacuum to be maintained at the pump, (g) introduction of large volumes of high temperature water into the return piping near the pump, (h) the use of long runs of piping from the source of steam supply to the farthest radiator.
High-pressure traps should not discharge directly into a vacuum return because of the vapor formfed by the re-evaporation of a part of the hot condensation.
Fig. 4 shows one method which may be used for disposing of the greater part of the vapor of re-evaporation.

Note I.---The capacities given in Table 14 are for pumps having water cylinder with the length of stroke equal to the diameter of the water piston.
Note 2.--The capacities for pumps of a greater or less length of stroke may be found by use of the last two columns in this table as follows: Divide the stroke by the piston diameter and find the corresponding ratio m the column headed stroke bore. The capacity factor opposite this in the last column is then multiplied by the capacity given in the table to give the capacity of the pump in question.
. Note 5.--When reciprocating pumps discharge against a head exceeding 5 lb. per square inch the pump
stroke should exceed the bore to reduce the ill ettect of clearance.'

Steam driven pumps can be economically used with steam pressures of 15 lb. or over and where the exhaust steam can be completely utilized.
Where the supply of exhaust steam from engines or other sources is continuously in excess of that necessary to supply the heating system the electric driven pump is generally the most efficient and is also pre ferable when the steam pressure is too low to operate a steam driven pump.
Steam cylinder sizes of reciprocating vacuum pumps should include the effect of frictional resistance of the piping system, the pump resistance and the possible drop in steam pressure under unusual conditions. When this analysis is not feasible the following formula may be used:
4S = 3 ^~2 ~ fd^

Ab = area of steam piston in square inches. Aw = area of water piston in square inches. Pb = boiler pressure in pounds per square inch. Pd = discharge pressure in pounds per square inch.
V = vacuum at pump expressed in inches of mercury.
-- = approximate vacuum in pounds per square inch (2 in. mercury = approximately
1 lb. per square inch).
.
Water cylinder sizes of steam driven reciprocating vacuum heating
pumps may be determined from Table 14.

The discharge from reciprocating vacuum heating pumps should be pro

Chapter XVIII--Pumps and Traps for Heating, and Ventilating Equipment
surface area in either a tank having a large horizontal cross section or a stand pipe of sufficient sectional area to permit a low velocity of downward water flow while the entrained air is escaping to the surface against the water current. For removal of air in a separating tank 1 sq. ft. of hori zontal cross section for each 2100 lb. of water per hour should be provided. When a stand pipe is used for air separation, one with a diameter equal to that of the pump cylinder is usually sufficient.
The freely vented air separating tank is preferable wherever a suitable location is available. The tank should be located at such a height that the pressure produced by the water column in its discharge pipe will be sufficient to overcome that in the low-pressure boiler feed water heater or other point of disposal. Fig. 5 shows an arrangement which may be used for vacuum pump, air separating tank and feed water heater. This . arrangement provides means for the air to escape through a vent in the top of the tank and for the water to flow by gravity to the. feed water heater, through the loop seal attached to the discharge outlet of the tank. If the rate of flow of returns to the tank exceeds the rate of discharge from the tank the excess is permitted to overflow through an opening in the end of the tank, near the top.
The hydro-pneumatic type separating tank may be used whenever an open tank cannot be located at a height sufficient to provide gravity head to discharge the tank contents against the maximum pressure in the heater or boiler. A float controlled valve is placed on the air outlet of the separating tank and so arranged that when the water of conden sation has insufficient head to flow by gravity to the point of use, the air will be confined in the upper part of the tank. Its operation is such that when the pump continues to deliver water and air to the tank the pres sure within the tank increases until it becomes sufficient to discharge the water, thus lowering the water line and eventually permitting escape of the surplus air through the float-controlled air valve. The confined air . pressure in the tank plus the gravity head in the tank discharge pipe must be sufficient to cause flow to the place of disposition. This confined

air pressure plus the column of mixed air and water in the pump discharge to the tank constitute the total head against which the pump must act. pig. 5 shows a hydro-pneumatic separating tank as well as a freely vented separating tank, for alternate use as conditions require.
Where the pressure in the heater, boiler, etc., varies materially from time to time and where it is desired to save energy by diminishing the head against which the pump shall work, a hydro-pneumatic type tank may be used, instead of a plain tank set at a higher elevation, to over come the peak pressure in the boiler or heater.
Table 15 gives the size of plain and hydro-pneumatic tanks for air
separating purposes and also those for storage of returns. In the latter
case the tanks are based upon storing the quantities of water which will
be discharged during five minutes at the basis of hourly rates given in
the first column.
._
.
When the head on the delivery side of steam driven vacuum return
pumps exceeds 15 lb. per square inch the condensate should be delivered
to a vented receiver located close to the level of the vacuum pump outlet.
This receiver'should be connected to a.separate steam or power driven
water pump capable of delivering against the maximum head and should
be controlled by a throttle valve or motor control, actuated by some suit
able means, from the water line in the receiving tank.
.
Typical vacuum pump connections for several different conditions of service, are shown by Figs. 6, 7 and 8.
LIFTS
In vacuum heating systems where condensation is to be raised to a
higher level it should be accomplished by means of lift fittings.
(
. Lifts of 6 ft. or over should be made in steps rather, than in one rise or through drag lift (consisting of long upwardly-inclined pipes.) In any case the pipes between the lifts should grade downward toward the pump.

'
DEFINITION OF TERMS USED
The following definitions of terms, which are in accordance with the Hydraulic Societies* Standards, should be used:
Static Head is the vertical distance between the free level of the source of supply and to the point of'free discharge, or to the level of the free surface of the discharge water.
Total dynamic head is the vertical distance between the source of supply and point
of discharge when pumping required capacity, plus velocity head, plus friction, velocity,
entrance and exit losses.
'
Total dynamic head as determined on test, where suction lift exists, is the reading of a mercury column connected to $he suction nozzle of pump plus the reading of a pressure gage connected to discharge nozzle of pump, plus vertical distance between point of attachment of mercury column and center of gage, plus excess, if any, of velocity head of discharge over velocity head of suction as measured at points where the instru ments are attached, plus head of water resting on mercury column* if any.
Total dynamic head as determined on test, where suction head exists, is the reading of a gage attached to the discharge nozzle ofpump minus the reading of gage connected to the suction nozzle of pump, plus or minus vertical distance between centers ..of gages (depending on whether suction gage is below or above discharge gage), plus excess, if any, of velocity head of discharge over velocity head of suction as measured at points where instruments are attached.:
304
\
Chapter XVIII--Pumps and Traps for Heating and Ventilating Equipment
Total dynamic discharge head is the total dynamic head minus dynamic suction lift, or plus dynamic suction head.
Suction Lift.--Suction lift exists when the suction measured at the pump nozzle and
corrected to the center line of the pump is below atmospheric pressure.
.
Static suction lift exists when the source of supply is below the center of pump and is the vertical distance from the free level of source of supply to center of pump.
Dynamic suction lift, where static suction lift exists, is the vertical distance from the source of supply, when pumping required capacity, to center of pump, plus velocity head, plus entrance friction and velocity losses, but not including internal pump losses,1 where static suction head exists but where the losses exceed the static suction head, the dynamic suction lift is the sum of the velocity head, entrance, friction and velocity losses, minus the static suction head, but hot including internal pump losses.
Dynamic suction lift as determined on test, is the reading of a mercury column connected to suction nozzle of pump, plus vertical distance between point of attachment of mercury column to center of pump, plus head of water resting on mercury column
if any.
Suction Head (sometimes called head on suction) exists when the pressure measured at the suction nozzle and corrected to the center line of the pump is above atmospheric pressure.
Static suction head exists when the source of supply is above the center of pump and is the vertical distance from the free level of the source of supply to center of pump.
Dynamic suction head, where static suction head exists, is the vertical distance from the source of supply, when pumping at required capacity to center of pump, minus velocity head, minus entrance friction and velocity losses, but not minus internal pump losses.
Dynamic suction head as determined on test is the reading of a gage connected to suction nozzle of pump, minus vertical distance from center of gage to center line of pump. Suction head, after deducting the various losses, may be a negative quantity, in which case a condition equivalent to suction lift will prevail.
Guarantee on Suction Lift.--All guarantees unless otherwise specified should be based
on handling dear fresh water at a temperature of not over 85 deg. fahr. and a total dynamic suction lift of not over 15 ft. at sea level.
HORSE POWER OF MOTORS
For motors of less than 100 hp. capacity When rated on a 50 deg. basis and when used . to drive centrifugal pumps should be of a capacity at least 20 per cent above the actual
horsepower required by the pump. When rated on a 40 deg. basis the extra margin of capacity should be made 5,per cent in excess of the actual power required by the pump at the normal rated capacity conditions for which the pump is guaranteed. For motors over 100 hp. capacity the rated motor capacity may be less than that given previously.
INSTALLATION DATA
All pumps, in general, should be set on substantial foundations and be provided with heavy cast iron sub-bases, securely anchored to foundation and provided with drip rim with drain connected to sump or sewer.
Especially in the case of centrifugal or turbine pumps every reasonable precaution should be taken to prevent distortion of base plates of pumps due to handling in shipment or bolting down without suitable grouting.
Flexible couplings should not be used to compensate for misalignment but only to compensate for temperature variations.
Pipe connections should, in general, be supported to prevent undue stresses in pumps due either to weight or expansion.
The exhaust from steam driven pumps supplying steam for heating purposes should be taken through an effective oil separator before entering any part of the heating system or other apparatus.
A full set of the manufacturers working drawings should be used in connection with each installation.

TRAPS
Traps ordinarily used in connection with heating and ventilating engineering may be divided into the following three types: (1) steam
traps, (2) oil traps, (3) air traps.
Steam traps may be sub-divided into: (a) high-pressure steam traps, (b) low-pressure steam traps, and each of these two sub-divisions may
be further sub-divided into: (1) float traps, (2) bucket traps, (3) ther mostatic traps, (4) return traps, (5) lifting traps, (6) alternating receiver
traps, (7) tilt traps.
The fundamental principle upon which the operation 6f practically all
traps depend is that the pressure within the trap at the time of discharge, shall be equal to, or slightly in excess of, the pressure against which the trap must discharge, including the friction head, velocity head and static head on the discharge side of the trap. If the static head is in favor of the trap discharge it is a minus quantity and may be deducted from the
other factors of the discharge head.
The capacity of a trap depends upon the clear area through its discharge ports and the difference between the pressure within the trap and the
total pressure against its discharge, at the time of discharge.
The opening of the ports of a trap may be a very variable quantity,
. depending upon the action of the mechanism in opening and closing the valves.
Float traps and thermostatic traps generally have gradual opening and closing of valves, although some of these are arranged with levers, weights, springs, etc., so as to snap open and close, thus giving a.full opening of the valves and ports during the entire time of each discharge: .
Bucket traps, tilt traps and alternating receiver traps have quick acting valves arid therefore wide open ports during each discharge.
Uses of traps in connection with heating and ventilating apparatus are for; draining the condensate from all kinds of radiators, heaters, steam
piping systems, kitchen equipment, laundry equipment, hospital equip ment, drying equipment and many other kinds of steam heated apparatus.
The usual function of a trap is to allow the passage of condensate and to prevent the passage of steam. In addition to these functions, traps are frequently required to allow the passage of air as well as condensate. Traps are also required to allow the passage of air and, to prevent the
passage of either water or steam, or both.
In addition traps are used for returning condensate either by-gravity,
by steam pressure, or by both to a boiler or other point of disposal. Also
for lifting condensate from a lower to a higher elevation, or for handling
condensate from a lower to a higher pressure.
.
By-passes are usually provided around traps with a valve and union on
each side of the trap and one of each in the by-pass. Some traps are provided with integral by-passes for temporary relief in case of emer gency, but these do not allow the removal of the trap for repairs without
interrupting the service.
High-pressure float, and alternating traps are usually provided with glass water gages, drain cocks and air relief cocks or automatic air relief
valves.
.
306
Chapter XVIII--Pumps and Traps for Heating and Ventilating Equipment Tilt traps are not ordinarily equipped with glass water gages as the action of the trap shows when it is filling or emptying. The air relief of tilt traps is taken care of by the valves of the trap. High-pressyre traps for handling large volumes of condensate are usually
of the float, bucket, tilt or alternating types, although some forms of thermostatic traps are designed for this kind of service. For smaller high-pressure apparatus many types of thermostatic traps are- very efficacious. Care should be taken to see that thermostatic traps of the bellows or diaphram type, when used for high-pressure service are
307
. American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
properly constructed with materials and solder that will properly with stand the maximum temperature of the steam.
Low-pressure traps of the various types are equipped substantially the same as high-pressure traps of similar types. Thermostatic traps are generally used for draining radiators and heaters except for very large capacities where bucket, float or blast traps are used. Thermostatic traps for this service usually pass both condensate and air and in case of float and bucket traps the air is usually relieved through an auxiliary ther mostatic trap in a by-pass around the main trap. Sometimes this auxiliary air trap is ah integral part of the trap. Blast traps are sometimes used on a vacuum heating system for connecting old one or two-pipe gravity systems in parallel with vacuum return line systems; in which case the blast traps should not be provided with auxiliary air by-pass, as the action of this will allow the vacuum to draw air into the old system through its air valves, especially when the steam is wholly or partially cut off. The air from the returns of such old systems should be relieved just ahead of the blast traps by means of quick venting automatic air valves, preferably of the non-return type, especially if the other air valves
on the old. system are non-return valves. ,
Lifting traps will discharge from, a lower to a higher pressure and are usually of the tilt or alternating type. Either of the two former types of traps are provided with two or three valves, operated by the action of
the trap.
V
In case of the two-valve traps, one valve closes a steam inlet and the other valve opens a vent outlet while the trap is filling and as soon as the trap dumps the first valve opens the steam inlet and the second valve closes the vent outlet, while the trap discharges. In this type of trap there must be a swinging check valve on each side of the trap, in addition to the usual by-pass, to prevent the pressure in the trap, while discharg ing, from backing up through the inlet and the pressure in the discharge line from backing up into the trap while it is filling. This type of trap will blow steam out through the vent while filling, if the pressure on ithe inlet side is sufficient, and should not be used, therefore, with such pres sures unless the vent is properly piped back into the return to a feed water heater, condenser or to a perforated pipe in the bottom of the receiver to which the trap .discharges, in such a way as to prevent the escape of the steam that comes in with the condensate and passes through the vent. In the three-valve traps of this type there is an extra valve for
closing the discharge while the trap.is filling.
Some tilting traps are designed for use without venting any steam but with automatic thermostatic air trap for venting the air. Some of these are equipped with automatic valves for introducing a water spray while the trap is filling thus condensing the steam, not only from the former discharge but from the intake and re-evaporation. Such may be used as vacuum traps for producing pressures below atmosphere on the system
to which the trap is connected.

Oil traps are used for draining the oil and condensate from oil separators, muffler tanks, etc., and are usually of the float type.
Air traps are used for relieving the air from steam heating systems, hot-water heating systems, domestic hot-water systems, etc; For steam heating systems where air and water are to be passed and steam retained they are of the thermostatic type. Where air is to be passed and steam

and water retained they are of the combination thermostatic and float type. For water systems where air is to be passed and water retained they are of the float type.
Alternating receiver type traps are used for returning the condensate to boilers or for lifting condensate from a lower to a higher level. They are generally of the two-valve type with one valve in the steam supply and one valve in the vent. The action of the float opens the vent and closes the steam supply while the trap is filling by gravity and closes the vent and opens the steam supply while the trap is discharging. The steam from the vent may be connected back into the return system to the trap to prevent the waste of heat. This type of trap requires a swinging check on each side to prevent the backing up of the discharge from the return system while the trap is discharging or into the trap while
309
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929 it is filling. The air is vented from the system, either'through the vent of the trap to the atmosphere, or where this vent is connected back into the returns the air is vented separately from the trap vent through a theFrimg.os11tastihcoawisr atrnapa.lterna,ting:receiver properly connected for returning the condensate, from a low-pressure heating system to the boiler.. The trap, vent in this case is connected .back into the returns with a ther mostatic air trap for relieving the air. In this arrangement a check valve on the air vent prevents, the return of air to the system during periods when the pressure in the system is below atmospheric pressure. With this arrangement or with some other special types of non-return air venting apparatus the system may be operated over long periods below
atmospheric pressure, thus retaining heat over night or during warmweather with a low fire and nothing more than a vapor in the system. The pressure must eventually be raised above atmosphere, however, at certain times to drive out the air, which eventually leaks into even the tightest system, while operating below atmospheric pressure.

CHAPTER XIX
laundry, kitchen and hospital EQUIPMENT AND PIPING SYSTEMS
Types, Kinds and Sizes of Apparatus Recruited, Steam and Hot Water Requirements;
Electric Requirements, Layouts, Installation Data.
,
THE requirements of laundry, kitchen' arid hospital equipment vary over wide limits, because, first--there are so many different classes of laundries, kitchens and hospitals, second--the operating technique varies so much. The data and methods herein given are for average operating conditions, but unusual requirements should be given special con
sideration.
'
Piping systems for laundry, kitchen and hospital equipment, generally, should have separate flow and return lines either above or below the equipment but it is better to have the return liriris below.
Traps (preferably high-pressure thermostatic) are placed on each coil
or unit, and the condensation is trapped into a return main, which is itself vented, and leads by gravity to a vented receiving tank or feed
water heater.
.
The vertical pipe in connections, especially the drop lines from over
head mains may be dripped through separate traps, although these may well be omitted as the fixture coils and traps will care for a limited amount
of condensation when the fixture valves are opened up, without damage.
The steam mains should be dripped and drained in about the same manner that would be required in steam piping for any other purpose.
LAUNDRY EQUIPMENT
It is not the purpose to include custom laundries here but rather flat
work laundries for hospitals, institutions, hotels, etc. . ,
.;
There is a wide variety of special machines, used mostly in custom or
general laundries, that will not be mentioned herein. Some of these machines are occasionally used in flat work laundries where a limited
amount of other classes of work is to be done but usually, they occupy little floor space, use small amounts of steam, water and electricity and
when their need is felt they can be added without materially effecting the layout of the other and larger machines which require much floor space
and use considerable quantities of steam, water and electricity..
These larger machines are washing; machines, extractors, tumbler dryers, flat work ironers and similar units.
it The^ material for this Chapter was prepared especially for The Guide by a committee consisting of
H. C. Russell, chairman; E. E. Ashley, R. C. Taggart and W. B. Underwood: '
`
311
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
Proportioning Equipment
Probably the minimum equipment of a well equipped flat work laundry,
outside of the capacity of a domestic laundry, is as follows: one, 36 in. x 48 in. washing machine; one, 36x64 in. washing machine; one, 26 in. centrifugal extractor; one, 4-roll 90 in. flat work ironer; one, 30x42 in. drying tumbler; one, 2-truck dry room; one, 15 gal. starch cooker; one, ,38 in. pressing machine for uniforms, etc.; one, hand ironing board, two 8 lb. electric irons; two, laundry tubs and one wringer.
If it is a hospital laundry, one disinfector about 36 in. high x 42 in. wide x 84 in. long may be included. This is large enough to receive an ordinary hospital mattress without distortion. It is placed in the laundry, rather than elsewhere, for the reason that its principal work consists of disinfecting (or sterilizing) clothes and other things to be laundered.
. Such a laundry would meet the requirements of a 250 bed hospital or a
350 room hotel, on a basis of 44 hours operation per week. For a smaller
number the equipment would be about the same but it would be operated
fewer hours per week. The purpose of the two washing machines in the
minimum laundry is primarily to provide a breakdown service. Washing
machines require repairs oftener than any other machine in the laundry
and they are indispensable to the operation of the plant. One small
washing machine is generally desirable in any plant, however large the
number of washing machines.
'
Typical Layout
Fig. I illustrates a layout of a laundry for a 500 bed hospital, the equip ment consisting of:
One, 36 in. high x 48 in. wide x 84 in. long disinfector; one, 36 in. x 48 in. standard washing machine; two, 42 in. x 72 in. standard washing machines; one, 60 gal. soap tanks; one, 48 in. and one, 30 in. extractor, one, 42 in. x 90 in. drying tumbler; one/120 in. six-roll flat work ironer; two, 38 in. garment presses; two, 49 in. garment presses; one, 66 in. handy flat work ironer; one set of hose forms; five hand ironing boards; six, 8 lb. electric irons; one, 20 gal. starch cooker; one, 36 in. x 60 in. starch table; two laundry trays; two wringers attached to trays; two, 36 in. x 120 in. wood tables for flat work ironing; four, 24 in. x 24 in. x 30 in. truck tubs; one, electric sewing machine.
Washing Machines
v
In the instances cited the washing machines are of the standard type, in which about one cycle, or washing, per hour is accomplished. There is another type of so-called high duty washer in which, on account of larger supply and waste connections, approximately two cycles per hour are
possible if the attendants will work fast enough, with consequent doubling of capacity.
Another type is called a sterilizing washing machine and is specially designed for hospital use. The bodies are steam tight and operate with a pressure of about 30 lb. while' washing. Laundry from the average
hospital is not disinfected, even though much, if not all of it, might
better be.
With average material about 2 lb. of dry laundry per cubic foot cylinder
312
Chapter XIX--Laundrvy. KKiittcphhpenn And hospital Equ,p,,ent and Piping SySTEMs
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
capacity, of standard machine and twice this amount for high duty
machines, may be figured per hour.
.
Flat Work Ironers
..
The capacity of flat work ironers depends upon width of machine,
number of rolls, steam pressure carried and efficiency of .venting and
draining steam and air. The proportions given in the cases cited give a
good index as to the number of machines required. Probably it is not advisable to install flat work ironers with less than five rolls, especially
when blankets are to be laundered, which is usually the case in a flat work
laundry. With a lesser number of rolls too much material has to be run
through twice or more. In most cases a six-roll flat work ironer is pre ferable.. Care must be taken to see that the length of the rolls is well
above the width of the widest sheets, etc. to be ironed.
Flat work ironers are rated on length of roll in inches and number of
heated rolls. Thus a 110 in. five-roll machine has five heated rolls each
110 in. long.
Tumbler Dryers
The proportion of tumbler dryer capacity to washers is established in
the instance previously mentioned. For an unusually large proportion of
blankets and similar articles, larger tumbler dryers would be required, and
in a locality where no blankets were used they may be reduced.
; Tumbler dryers are simply high duty dryers for work that could be done in the dry rooms. It is not an absolutely necessary machine, but is .
practically so regarded today.
.
Tumbler dryers are rated on diameter and length of the cylinder ior
the reception of material to be dried. A 42 in. x 72 in; drying tumbler nas
cylinder 42 in. diameter x 72 in. long. ' . ! Each of these machines is provided with a small hot-air fan as part of
the machine. Provisions should be made for a duct from air outlet to discharge out-of-doors, as the lint and humid air carried is objectionable
when discharged into the rooms.
Water, Steam and Power Requirements
.
The minimum water, steam and power requirements are about 100 gal.
of cold water, SO gal, of hot water, 30 lb. of steam and 1 k.w. of electricity
per 100'lb. of clothes (dry), The-.average laundry will exceed these by
50 per cent and small laundries by 100 per cent. The instantaneous demands for steam and water are much higher than
the-average. Due to the heavy instantaneous demands, especially in a small laundry, it is well to supply the laundry from the main boiler plant, where these drafts will be least felt. In this case the amounts given in Table 1 are satisfactory for a medium size flat work laundry, with standard
washers. They should be doubled if high duty washers are used.
If an individual boiler is installed for the laundry, or for other .reason the load curve must be flattened out, the use of larger tanks .and conse quently more storage is necessary. Tanks double the sizes given in this
table are frequently required. In estimating the hot water demand the
laundry trays may ordinarily be neglected.

The average drying tumbler, say 42 in. x 72 in. requires about 600 lb. of,
steam per hour. Steam requirements of other machines and dry room
combined do not.exceed one third that of the drying tumbler. Washing
machines have steam connections .and sometimes considerable steam is,
used there, but this is reflected in the reduced amount of hot water used..
In some cases steam, is liable to carry oil in suspension and its use in
washing machines is objectionable so provision for its elimination should
be made.
".
^
;
The maximum `demand for electric feeders should be taken at full
connected load for direct current, and for alternating current the power to operate the largest washing machine should be added to the fulleOn-': ' nected load. The ..reason for the latter requirement is to provide-for reversal of machines which is negligible with direct current but con siderable for alternating current..
Washing machines require from'2 to 8 hp. for drive according to size,
plus 100 per Cent for reversing when alternating-current machines are
used.'-Extractors require 2'to 5 hp. to drive, according to size. Tumbler
dryers require 3 to 6 hp. to drive, according- to size. Flat work-ironers
from % to 2-hp: according to size.-' Electric irons require from 500 to 1000
watts, according to size.
''
Steam Pressure Required,
The capacity required of the flat work ironer largely fixes the steam'
pressure required as all other machines may use steam at'Widely varying
pressures without appreciably effecting their operation or capacity.:. -.
With a flat work ironer of five orsix-rolls and of ample capacity*70 lb.
per square inch is generally sufficient but pressures. of. 90 lb,, are not
uncommon in order, to get the capacity out of the machine. Occasionally the Work on' such a machine is so light.that 50 1Jj. is sufficient.
Sixty pounds are ample for the disinfector and small presses used for
miscellaneous pressing work.
. . ,` .
Pipe Sizes and Systems of Piping . .
.
The branches to each machine must be large enough to meet instan
taneous requirements but the steam and,,water mains need not exceed one half the combined area of the branches, as it is unlikely that, more than
two heavy machines will be drawing full capacity simultaneously.
Steam connections to washing machines are % in. to 1 in. according to
size; tumbler dryers, 1 in. to lJ4'in. according to size; dry rooms generally
AS in.; flat work ironers, % in. to 1 in; according,to size; to starch cookers
K in. and to garment presses and miscellaneous small machines Y2 in.
There are several small connections to the disinfector, but main'.supply
should be 1 in.
1 f
315
; .American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
A 3^ in. return connection and (4 in. thermostatic trap is ample for any coil or heating unit except ironers and tumblers which should be 34 in.
return with 34 in. thermostatic trap. Return mains having an area one half the combined area of the branches is ample, 34 in- being the minimum
pipe size.
Occasionally it may be necessary to run return mains at the laundry
ceiling, but this should be avoided if possible, in such cases mechanical
traps instead of thermostatic traps are used, the condensation being lifted
from floor to the return by the pressure of the steam. Cold water and hot water connections to washing machines are 1(4 in.
to 2 in. according to size; J4 in. to soap tank and starch cooker and 24 in.
to each laundry tray. These are sufficiently large with water pressures
ordinarily found. The so-called high duty washing machines usually have two connections
each same size as for standard washers of corresponding size. Quick filling is a necessary requirement to secure the extra capacity claimed for
these machines.
Water Softening .
.
Fairly soft water, the softer the better,- is an absolute necessity if a
clean white wash is to result. With hard water the soap forms insoluble
compounds with calcium, magnesium and iron which cling to the washed
fibres and after they have been through the flat work ironer the spots
turn .various colors. In addition to this more soap is required with hard
waters than with soft, the excess depending upon the amount of hardness
present. . Before any lather is formed the soap must neutralize the
hardness of the water. One pound of average soap will soften (bring to
point of producing lather) 167 gal. of water when the hardness is 20 parts
per million, but only 40 gal. when the hardness is 100 parts per million.
Seventeen parts per million is equivalent to one grain of hardness, by
weight, per gallon.
,
From 15 to 25 per cent more water is used when it is very soft than
when it is very, hard for the reason that in rinsing, the hard water im
mediately precipitates the excess soap used in the washing process.
Arrangement Of Equipment
1
For efficient operation the arrangement of equipment must be given
careful study so that it will fit in with the natural sequence of operations
from receiving to delivery. Any , backward movement of material that
might involve possible contact of washed materials with unwashed
material must be guarded against.
.
Whenever possible the laundry should be a separate building. The
ceilings of the building should be high and the- rooms well ventilated by.
large windows and adequate roof ventilators. Ventilating fans will
fr&juently be required,
./ '
All operations except receivings mending, storing and delivery should
be carried on in one room.

KITCHEN EQUIPMENT ..
; -* i' '
'
[ The equipment covered herein includes the usual cooking equipment
fbund in the ordinary institution or hotel kitchen. There are other
316
XIX--Chapter
Laundry, Kitchen and Hospital Equipment and Piping Systems
special appliances found in all kitchens, but for the most part such appliances require small space, nominal amounts of steam and in many cases none at all. They are frequently added and may be placed in any properly designed kitchen with little or no disturbance to existing equip ment.
Character of Equipment
Nearly all steam kitchen equipment such as steam tables, dishwashing machines, warmers, kettles, etc,, can be obtained either for gas or steam heat.
For a small kitchen, where gas is available, and a separate steam boiler would be required for the kitchen, it is probably better to use the direct gas-fired equipment. If the kitchen is large it is better to install the usual steam equipment even if a separate steam boiler is required.
Steam heated equipment has certain inherent advantages over gas for steam tables, dishwashers, kettles, etc. It is more nearly fool-proof and steam can be left on a dry fixture indefinitely without damage but not so with gas. The upkeep and maintenance cost of steam equipment is less than with gas equipment and the fuel costs are generally less, even with a gas-fired steam boiler.
The range may be fired with wood, coal, oil or gas, preference being given to the latter. Electricity will be considered as always available for power purposes and for small hot-plates, broilers, etc. The use of electricity for the range is practicable, and for that matter ideal, but too expensive except in isolated cases.
Proportioning Equipment
.
It is difficult to lay down general rules for proportioning equipment.
So much depends upon the technique employed by the management and
the partial preparation of food at points other than in the main kitchen.
The proportions laid down here are subject to wide variation to meet
requirements for a specific case. They are based on steam heated equip
ment but no substantial difference in capacity exists if gas heated equip
ment is used.
;
:
Ranges
. ....
The smallest practicable gas or coal range has a top surface of about
7(4 sq. ft. and an oven volume of about'4000 cu. in., which is sufficient
for about 25 persons on the theory that no kettles, roasting ovens.etc.,
would be installed in such a small kitchen, and that all such cooking would
be done on the range. About 15 sq. ft. top surface and 8000 cu. in. oven
space is good for . 100 persons. For each additional 100. persons allow
about 7(4 sq. ft. top surface and 4000 cu. in, oven space.
.,
A steel hood with a good draft is required over, the range and generally a fan is used to produce sufficient dependable draft. The range generally stands against a wall and the hood should project 12 in. or more beyond the edge of the range at ends and fropt. The best type of hood is a double hood as shown in Fig. 2. The slot is 2 in. wide and is the full periphery
of the hood on front and sides. The volume of air should be sufficient to
; American Society of Heating and. Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
:produce a velocity of 900 ft. per minute through the slot, or about 150
cu. ft, air per minute per linear foot of slot.
,
Cook's Table
..
The cook's table is about 3 ft. wide, practically the full length of the range and is generally placed opposite the range front and about 4 ft. 6 in. from it. Cook's tables (frequently contain warntirig closets underneath
and: steam tables on top.
.
Fig. 2. Details of Range Hood
The ",bain marie." is generally built in-a part of . the cook's table or installed: at one end of the table. A cook's sink, which is a simple galva nized sink without back, size about 18 in. x 36 in. x 6 in. deep is often
placed at the end of the cook's table opposite the."bain marie."
The saucepan rack is almost invariably the full length of the cook's
table and consists of two rails or racks about 24 in. apart, one rail'over each edge of the table, with semi-circular connecting rail at each end. Hooks are attached to the rails upon which pans and kettles are stored. In small units, they are often supported by standards attached to the table but in larger sizes they are supported from the ceiling, leaving the
table free of such obstructions.
:
Kettles, Ovens and Steamers
-.
..
Stock kettles, roasting ovens, vegetable steamers, cereal cookers, are not often installed in kitchens to. serve less than 50 persons, such cooking
being done on the range.-
. ....
, The following sizes of steam kettles and roasting ovens are suggested:
One, 25 or 30 gal. kettle.and one,-25 or 30 gal. roaster will serve 250 to 300-persons; one, 40 or 50 gal. kettle and one, 40 or: 50 gai. roaster will serve. 350 to 450 persons; two, 30 or 40 gal. kettles and two!* 30 or 40 gal. roasters will serve 500 to 700.persons; three; 30 dr 40 gal. kettles and three, 30 or 40 gal. roasters will serve 750 to 1000 persons;
318
XIX--Chapter
Laundry, Kitchen and Hospital Equipment and Piping Systems
To put it in another way the requirements of hotel kitchens where steam kettles alone are used are given as follows:
100 rooms, one, 40 gal.
.
250 rooms, one, 50 gal., one, 25 gal., and one 10 gal. without cover. 500 rooms, one, 75 gal., three, 60 gal., and one, 20 gal. without cover.
,
800 rooms, two, 100 gal., two, 75 gal., one, 60 gal., one, 40 gal., and one, 25 gal. without cover.
1000 rooms, four, 100 gal., three 80 gal., one, 60 gal., one, 25 gal., one, 25 gal., tilting type, and one 60 gal. without cover.
A hospital or institution kitchen where the staff dining hall and diet kitchens are served by the main kitchen should be equipped about as follows:
For 50 beds, one, 25 gal.; 150 beds, one, 25 gal. and one 40 gal. 250 beds, two, 60 gal. and one, 10 gal. without cover.
Vegetable steamers are not usually installed for less than 50 persons, such cooking being done on other equipment. A two bushel steamer will serve 200 persons and an additional two bushel steamer for each 200 persons until three such steamers are installed which is sufficient for 1000 persons. Vegetable steamers are made in one, two and four bushel sizes.
The compartment type of cast-iron vegetable steamers are not largely used now. They are difficult to keep clean, leak between the sections and the doors are hard to keep tight.
Cereal Cookers
One, 15 gal. cereal cooker will serve 100 persons and an additional one of the same size is needed for each 200 persons additional until four such cookers are installed which is sufficient for 1000 persons.
Coffee Urns
A pair of coffee urns, each having a capacity of 5 gal. per 100 persons, should be provided; urns having capacity of 3 gal. each being the mini
mum size to be installed. Coffee urn stands are fitted with a water boiler between the urns having a capacity equal to the combined capacity of the
two urns. Generally the urn stand should contain cup warming cabinet below, heated with steam coil or gas.
Steam Tables
In cafeteria kitchens (not cafeteria dining rooms) the. steam tables are usually placed opposite the ranges and stock kettles, and largely take the place of the cook's tables, hereinbefore referred to.
The following data is given to approximate the size of steam tables:
A 5 ft. 0 in. long unit with two meats, four pots and two gravies will serve 100 to 250
persons; a 6 ft. 0 in. long unit with two meats, four pots and two gravies will serve 150 to 300 persons; a 7 ft. 0 in. long unit with three meats, six pots and two gravies will serve 350 to 500 persons.
One or more of the above sizes are to be installed according to number
to be served from steam tables.
.
Sinks
-
. :.
Pot sinks, work sinks,, vegetable sinks,-meat sinks are made of galva
nized sheet, iron, with back 12 in. high and where space permits with
integral drain boards on each end.
.
319
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
One 36 in. x 26 in. x 16 in. deep, two compartment, pot sink will suffice for 50 persons and for larger kitchens one such sink 72 in. long, 27 in. wide and 16 in. deep in three compartments should be provided. Only a
very large kitchen would require more than one pot sink.
One vegetable sink same size as pot sink should be provided in the vege table preparation room, and a sink of same size in the general, work room.
Smaller sinks, generally 30 in. long by 18 in, wide by 6 in. dep will be required in the salad preparation room, meat cutting department, general serving counter, dessert preparation room and adjacent to the fish
refrigerator unless the sink for meat room is available for the latter use.
Fish Refrigerator
Fish cannot be kept in an ordinary refrigerator but may best be kept packed in ice. Up to 100 persons capacity, some make-shift may be depended upon unless fish are to be used extensively, but for larger kitchens a fish-box should be provided. The smallest has an internal capacity of about 9 cu. ft. and is sufficient for 200 persons. The installation of the larger sizes would depend upon whether fish are to be bought daily or
kept for longer periods.
'
Ice Cream and Sherbets . .
.
.
If ice cream is to.be made a 20 qt. motor driven freezer should be pro vided for less than 200 persons. For more than 200 persons a 40 qt. freezer will generally suffice. Ordinarily cracked ice is used, but for large institutions having a central refrigerating plant the use of a brine
cooled freezer should be considered. In such cases the refrigerators are usually available for the storage of the cream until used. An ice-breaking
machine should be considered. Requirements for serving cabinets will vary, considerably. It should
never be less than the capacity of the freezer, however. One 20 qt. can
will serve 200 portions. ; '
Ice Chests
,
.,
An ice chest is required in the kitchen or in connection with it; a 22 in. x
28 in. x 33 in. long is a convenient size.
Mixing Machine
..
* A mixing machine for batters, salad dressings, is generally installed for
kitchens serving over 50 persons and occasionally for smaller ones. The
15 qt. size is sufficient only for the smallest kitchens, especially if it must
be used for baking mixtures. The 60 or 80 qt. size should be provided for
larger kitchens, the 60 qt. size haying a capacity great enough for 300
persons.
.
. Vegetable Peelers Vegetable peeler, or paring machine, should be provided in the vege
table preparation room. The 25 lb. size is sufficient for 100 persons, 40
lb. for 500 persons and the 60 lb. size for 1000 persons. ; It: is advisable, but not an absolute necessity, to install a small sink
with a 3 in. waste outlet, adjacent to this machine, with cold water faucet over it, to take care of the waste. The hopper must be installed close to
320

the floor, which will generally require the trap to be placed at the ceiling below.
Dish Washing Machines
Dish washing machines are rated in dishes per hour and frequently rated well beyond capacities obtainable under ordinary conditions. The rated capacity of the machine should be ten times the number of meals to be served in any hour.
Such machines are built with one, two and three tanks and a like number of separate sprays. The object of the two or three tank machines is to avoid mixing the wash and rinse waters. The single tank machines are generally made only in small sizes and are suitable for diet kitchens and similar small kitchens only. In the two tank machines the wash and rinse water is separate and in the three tank machines there are two rinse waters.
Certain types of dish washing machines, of the three tank style are semi-sterilizing in their operations in that the last spray, through which the dishes pass, is a mixture of hot water and steam. This type should be installed in hospital kitchens but may be unnecessary in other kitchens. In the ordinary, non-sterilizing type steam connections are required also but steam is used only for heating the water or keeping it hot.
A dishwashing sink, say 30 in. long x 18 in. wide x 6 in. deep with wood
drain board at each end, should be provided somewhere near the outlet
end of the dishwasher. For one cause or another a dish frequently passes
through the average machine without getting properly washed, and must
be picked up as it passes out.
. ./
Sterilizing dish washing machines and possibly some others, discharge
the dishes sufficiently hot to dry themselves almost instantly but not
all machines by any means will do. this and in such.cases dishes must be
dried by hand.
' ,
Broiler
-.
..
A broiler may or may not be required in an institution kitchen but is
always necessary in a hospital, hotel, club and similar kitchen if more
than 100 persons are to be served.
.
They are obtainable for electric, charcoal or gas heat and in widths 18 in. to 40 in. They are approximately the same depth as ranges and are
usually placed at one end of the range so that the range hood can be utilized to carry away the odors.
Miscellaneous
Meat blocks, meat slicers, coffee mill, bread slicers, are necessary and a barrel truck is frequently advisable for a large kitchen or in the bake shop.
Short Order Kitchens
;
Short order kitchens are sometimes required in hospital kitchens for the
preparation of eggs, bacon, toast, etc., which must be served very quickly, and prepared on special order. Such kitchens require equipment of certain variety but of nominal capacity. For the ordinary size hospital 24 in. x 30 in. gas or electric hot-plate, a small steam heated warming closet,
an 18 in. x 30 in. x 6 in..deep sink and a small work table would serve.
321
' American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
Diet Kitchens
.
In connection with hospital kitchens, diet kitchens distributed among the wards and bed rooms are invariably provided. The main dining rooms are built adjacent to the main kitchen and in some cases the socalled "ambulant" patients, and personnel, go to these dining rooms. The diet kitchens are for those confined to beds or rooms.
The bulk of the preparation is performed in the main kitchen and carried to the diet kitchens in heated food carts.
A diet kitchen equipment usually consists of an 18 in. x 24 in. gas or electric hot-plate; one, 4 ft. long steam table with meat pan, four vegetable jars and two gravies; a warming closet below the steam table, a 1500 piece capacity dish washing machine, a small refrigerator and an 18 in. x 30 in. x 6 in. deep sink.
BAKE SHOPS
Baking of bread and pastry if done on the premises should be separated from the main kitchen but adjacent thereto unless there are good reasons for another location. In a contagious hospital, for instance, where the main kitchen may be subject to infection the bake shop would probably do baking for the entire hospital and should be well away from possible infection.
Oven
The capacity of the oven at one baking, which is the method of rating
ovens, should be about one half of a pound loaf per person. In large insti
tutions it may be smaller relative capacity and based on more continuous
baking operations.
.
Pastry Oven
A pastry oven having an aggregate baking surface of about 5 sq. ft. per 100 persons should be provided in the bakery. Not infrequently pastry only is baked on the premises and bread is purchased, in which case the separate bake shop can be dispensed with and the pastry oven installed in the main kitchen.
Fuel
If gas is not available it may be advisable to use electric baking and pastry ovens. Ovens fired by coal or wood are often used but are not satisfactory. In general electric copking is expensive, but of all cooking equipment the bake oven and'pastry ovens are the pieces which are best adapted to electric heating.
In addition to the ovens, a properly equipped bakery should contain the following:
One bakery combination consisting of flour hopper, sifter, elevator, tempering tank and dough and cake mixer; having a capacity of Vz bbl. per 100 persons; one steam or gas heated proofing box having a capacity of 12 sq. ft. of shelf per 100 persons; a dough trough from 4 ft. to 10 ft. long with table over; a pair of 400 lb. platform scales; a baker's stove, baker's table, pan racks, bread storage cabinet and a baker's sink.
CAFETERIA RESTAURANT SERVICE
Cafeteria restaurant service, by which persons serve themselves, is frequently provided in institutions and elsewhere. In such cases the
.322
Chapter XIX-Laundry, Kitchen and Hospital Equipment and Piping Systems
coffee urns, milk urns, ice cream cabinets, heretofore referred to are placed behind the cafeteria rail. In addition to this, provision must be made for steam tables and cold pans for salads; etc. The smaller the relative capacity, of course, the oftener supplies must be replenished.
The requirements for steam tables are given hereinbefore under Steam Tables. Cold pans are about 24 in. wide and various lengths, and
are refrigerated by ice or coils. Probably 4 ft. long would be the minimum
length cold pan that should be installed.'
.
A small sink should be provided behind the cafeteria rail arid com
venient to it.

Water Requirements
..
Hot water requirements for kitchens may be taken as 20 gal. per hour for each sink faucet and 40 gal. per hour per 1000 pieces capacity per hour of dishwasher. There is a peak load which occurs at dish washing time, and must be met either by instantaneous heaters or by a storage type heater. The requirements of the dish washing machine are somewhat under control of the operator, for by more liberal use of steam less hot water, is used, and vice-versa.
Cold water requirements are approximately double the hot water requirements but will easily be met through pipes of ample size.
Steam Requirements
The dish washing machine will consume from 50 to 100 lb. of steam per 1000 pieces capacity of machine, per hour. An allowance of 150 lb. steam per person, per hour will meet all steam requirements for kitchen except dish washing machine and water heating.
The average steam requirements for a kitchen serving 300 to 500 persons will be cared for by a 25 to 30 hp. boiler. The annual consump tion of such a kitchen will be about 2,000,000 lb. of steam.
Power Requirements
Dish washing machines require 1 to 2 hp. per 5000 pieces capacity per hour, to drive, with the smallest machine using 34 hp. motor. Kitchen mixing machines take 34 to 1 hp.; bake shop combinations 2 hp; per barrel rating of machine. The 17 in. meat, food and vegetable choppers require 1 hp. and the 20 in. size requires 2 hp. Coffee grinders, knife polishers, silver burnishers need nominal amounts, about 34 hp. Vegetable .
peelers take 34 to 1 hp. according to size. Allow 34 hp. for a 25 qt. ice
cream freezer and 1 hp. for 40 qt. size.
Electric Cooking Requirements
'
In a complete electric kitchen, i.e., one in which ranges, broilers ,and
hot-plates are electric, the watts required lor a complete meal will average
as follows; which are minimum:
'
General restaurant.................................................... 400 to. 500 watts Institution kitchen........ ........................................... 175 to 200 watts Colleges, boarding schools, etc--........................ 250 to 350 watts Clubs, etc.......................................................-............ 450 to 600 watts
Electricity is subject to considerable abuse, resulting in waste, unless care is used in' its operation. It is easily possible for the figures to be exceeded by 100 per cent and probably that they always will be exceeded by some amount.
Steam Pressures
...
.
Not less than 30 lb. gage, and not over 50 lb. are the usual pressure
limits for steam cooking. Lower pressures down to I lb. are ample for
warmers, but the steam kettles require higher pressures and .it is cus
tomary to carry the higher pressures mentioned on all equipment. All
jacketed pots, have safety valves usually set at 50 lb. and usually vacuum
breakers are required on-the jacketed fixtures to prevent collapse under
vacuum conditions.
.

Water Connections
'
^
Hot and cold water connections to sinks are 34 in.;'hot water only is
provided for dish washer from 34 to 134 in- according to'size; 34 in. hot and cold water to "bain marie;" and 34 in. cold and hot water to coffee
urns. Stock kettles, soup kettles, vegetable steamers, roasting steamers and potato peeler sink are frequently provided with a 34 in. faucet over each of them, supported independent of the fixture. Generally hot water only is so connected. These are not an absolute necessity but often, a
great convenience. Drinking fountains and water coolers require 34 in.
cold water.
. In sizing mains to care for two or more items make the mains about one half the sum of the areas of the branches.
Steam Supply Connections
Steam connections to jacketed kettles, soup kettles, vegetable steamers, steam tables, coffee urns, plate warmers and roll warmers are 34 in. for smaller sizes and 34 in. for larger sizes and in cases where runs are long.
Steam connections to dish washing machines are 34 to 134 in. according
to size.
In sizing mains to take care of two or more items make the area of
same about one half the sum of the branch areas, keeping the sizes well
up, toward the ends of the runs.
'
Return Connections
Return connections are uniformly 34 in. size and are made to all
equipment having steam connections except the spray to dishwashing
machine. However the coil in this machine requires a return connection.
Each unit or separate coil should be provided with a 34 in. thermostatic
trap. . If more than one unit or coil is connected to the same trap air
binding will, result. Connections of the same size are made to return
mains.
,
Gas Connections
..
The proper manner is to obtain from the manufacturer, the gas con
sumption per hour of. the different fixtures,, to be used and size the gas
pipes accordingly. ; Excellent tables for this purpose, when the gas
consumption and length of run are known, are given by the American
Gas Association.
.
As an' approximation the following-is given as sizes of connections commonly found in equipment of average size. Bake shop oven 134 in.; pastry oven 34 in.; dish washing machines 34 to 134 in.; broilers 1 to 134 in.; ranges 1 to 2 in.; small ranges in diet kitchens 1 in.; salamanders and
warmers 34 in. and steam tables 1 in.
Grease Traps
-
The dish washing machine, all pot sinks, pan sinks and any sinks into
which grease may find its way should be provided .with grease traps.
When grease traps on the individual fixtures are used the cold water
supply.to the fixture is connected to pass through the jacket of the
grease trap.

Chapter XIX--Laundry, Kitchen and Hospital Equipment and Piping Systems
HOSPITAL EQUIPMENT
Every modern hospital must sterilize all instruments and utensils used in operations and treatments, all dressings before being used, all bed pans from wards and rooms, the baby's milk and the bottle in which it is served. Provision should also be made to sterilize mattresses, bedding and similar articles and also dishes when occasion arises. A plentiful supply of sterilized water and distilled water must also be provided. Hospitals for mental and nervous diseases must include hydro-therapy and electro-therapy treatment. The equipment with which this chapter deals is largely, but not altogether, sterilizers.
Instrument, dressing, utensil, dish and mattress sterilizers are usually rated by their internal dimensions in inches; water sterilizers by, the gallons capacity of each of the two reservoirs, water stills by their capacity in gallons and pasteurizers and bottle sterilizers by their capacity in 8 oz. bottles. The method of rating other hospital equipment will be referred to later.
Selection of Type of Sterilizers
Sterilizers and water stills may be had heated either by steam, elec tricity, gas, kerosene or gasoline; the preference being in the order named. Steam is the only method, however, for which the entire line of sterilizers are ordinarily made. They are simpler, contain less equipment liable to derangement, quicker in operation- and cheaper both to install and operate than those heated by any other method. Electrically heated sterilizers, in practice, are confined to the smaller sizes, and such as for dentists' and doctors' treatment rooms outside of hospitals.
Electricity is superior to any other method only in one case, i.e., the solution warmer, where due to its adaptability to automatic control it is preferred to any other method.
Cost of Operation
The cost of operation of steam sterilizer equipment is very little more than the cost of keeping steam constantly available and the amount of use has little effect on the total cost of operation. The cost of operation of electric sterilizers may be considerable, depending upon how much they are used and the cost of standby service for them. This will be seen when it is noted that the smallest instrument sterilizer is rated at 2200 watts and the largest dressing sterilizer at 12,000 watts.
The cost of operation of gas, kerosene and gasoline heated sterilizers is much more than for steam heated ones but usually less than for electric heated ones, depending entirely on the amount of use.
Open and Closed Sterilizers
There are two general classes of sterilizer, i.e., the open type in which the articles to be sterilized are immersed in a water bath heated by steam coils, the limiting temperature obviously being 212 deg. fahr., and the closed type in which there is no water bath and the articles to be sterilized are brought into temperatures corresponding to steam at 40 to 60 lb. pressure per square inch.
The former is the older type and has the disadvantage of depositing
327
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
lime or other impurities, which may be in the water, on the instruments, etc., sometimes requiring them to be dried before storing. The latter type is the newer one, and obviously provides better sterilization by the higher temperatures obtainable, does not deposit impurities of the water on the instruments, and the articles are dry when removed from the sterilizer. Obviously sterilizers for dressings and fabrics must be of the latter type.
There is considerable tendency now to the use of so-called built-in sterilizers in the operating suites and other places where several sterilizers are installed at one point. Only pressure type sterilizers, which are loaded and unloaded from one end, are adaptable to this arrangement. With this method simply a thin partition, is built flush with the sterilizer fronts, with only the doors, gages and operation valves visible in the rooms, the bodies projecting into an unfinished space behind the partition. This space must of course be accessible for repairs.
Proportioning Equipment
It is extremely difficult to lay down fixed rules as to the number and
size of sterilizers to be installed in a hospital because requirements vary
' so widely and the technique followed by different hospital managements
likewise varies widely.
However an attempt will be made to give some idea of the equipment considered sufficient under ordinary conditions. The number of major and minor operating rooms are fixed by considerations beyond the scope of this chapter.
One 16 in. x 24 in. dressing sterilizer will care for two major operating rooms and pdssibly for three, but for more than two such rooms it is better to provide a 16 in. x 36 in. size or better still to install two 16 in. x 24 in. sterilizers. The use of two sterilizers makes provision for breakdown service and in addition one of them may be used as a pressure utensil sterilizer, in some cases doing away with the necessity of installing a separate sterilizer for utensils.
One 20 in. x 20 in. x 24 in. open type, utensil sterilizer will care for two
major operating rooms, unless the work is very heavy in which case one
such sterilizer should be provided for each room.
`
One 9 in. x 10 in. x 20 in. open type, instrument sterilizer should be provided for each major operating room, although one 10 in. x 12 in. x 22 in. may serve two such rooms. The 12 in. x 16 in. x 24 in. instrument sterilizer finds its use where it is convenient to sterilize from three or more major operating rooms at one place.
One 14 in. x 22 in. (the smallest size advisable to use) pressure type, instrument sterilizer will easily serve two major operating rooms.
A small hospital might install one 20 in. x 28 in. pressure type dressing
sterilizer which would serve both for dressings and utensils, but of course
no breakdown service would thereby be provided.
.
From the references to both open and closed sterilizers it will of course
be understood that both types for the same purpose are not to be installed.
It is simply a choice of one type or the other for a given purpose;
'
Water sterilizers usually consist of twin reservoirs of the same capacity mounted on one frame. One reservoir is for water kept hot by steam coil
328
Chapter XIX--Laundry, Kitchen and Hospital Equipment and Piping Systems
in the reservoir and the other somewhat cooled by circulating cold water through a coil in the reservoir. Both reservoirs of course have provisions for sterilizing their contents.
Water stills, when so ordered, are part of the water sterilizing unit and consist of still and reservoir, generally mounted between the two water reservoirs.
Water sterilizers are available in sizes from 6 to 100 gal. capacity of each reservoir and stills in capacities of 1-3 and 6 gal. reservoir capacity. The total capacity of the two water reservoirs on the water sterilizer should range between 5 and 10 gal. per major operation per day, as it is preferable to start with full tanks in the morning and have sufficient supply for the entire day.
The 3 gal. still would suffice for hospitals up to 100 beds and the 6 gal. size for larger hospitals, in connection with the water sterilizers.
Stills of same capacity are obtainable independent of the water steril izers. There "will frequently be need for a 6 gal. separate still in the pharmacy and frequently one in the maternity department.
The dressing, instrument, utensil and water sterilizers listed above are primarily for the major operating rooms. Sterilized dressings are stored in sealed containers, easily handled, and it makes little difference whether the operating activities are scattered or concentrated. Obviously the instrument, utensil and water sterilizers must be in or adjacent to the operating rooms as instruments, utensils and water should hot be carried very far. If operating rooms are scattered the sterilizer equipment, with exception of the dressing sterilizer, must be duplicated for each location.
The sterilizers should preferably be located in a room fitted up for the
purpose, opening directly into the operating rooms. It is well to re
member, however, that uncontrolled sources of heat, however small, in
an operating room are to be avoided whenever possible. In hot countries
this is very important, for oscillating fans are usually not allowable in
such rooms.
.
Maternity department delivery rooms are operating rooms so far as this discussion is concerned and are to have the same equipment. Even when they are so located that they may be served from same sterilizers as other operating rooms, which is usually not the case, there is a tendency to provide separate equipment for this room to avoid any possibility of infection from outside sources. This applies to the dressing sterilizer as well as other sterilizers.
In each minor operating room where eye, ear, nose and throat opera tions are performed and in treatment rooms where minor operations of various kinds are performed, and in the dental clinic, if one is provided a small electric sterilizer, say 5 in. x 6 in. x 16 in. for instruments should be provided.
In the surgery and maternity departments, and at convenient locations to rooms and wards, blanket and solution warmers should generally be
provided. They are available in sizes approximately 18 in. x 24 in. x 72 in. and 18 in. x 30 in. x 72 in. and are simply heated, metal
cabinets, suitably divided into compartments, in which bedpans, blankets and solutions may be kept suitably warmed, ready for use.
For the wards and rooms they should be placed in or near the utility
329
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
rooms, hereafter referred to, because the bedpans are-washed and steril ized after use in the utility rooms. The compartments for blankets and bedpans are better heated by steam but the one for solutions will be better heated by electricity due to the fact that to keep solutions .at the proper temperature for immediate use accurate automatic control of the tem perature is necessary and the electric heating is best adapted for this purpose. This compartment for solutions is not generally necessary, however, except in the surgery and maternity departments.
Surgical dressing rooms must have provision for sterilizing water, instruments and utensils. Dressings may be sterilized at the central station. If it is adjacent to the main sterilizing room the equipment there may be utilized, but if not adjacent and in a large hospital, separate sterilizing equipment should be provided for this room. In case the sterilizing equipment of the operating rooms are used for this purpose a little liberality in their equipment should be practiced.
For surgical dressing room in a small hospital a 6 gal. water sterilizer, one 8 in. x 9 in. x 18 in. instrument sterilizer and 16 in. x 15 in. x 20 in. utensil sterilizer will suffice. For larger hospitals the next size larger equipment in each case should be provided.
In the laboratory there should be installed an autoclave, which is simply a dressing sterilizer without the jacket, for the wet sterilizing of material. A 16 in. x 24 in. will suffice for a 100 bed hospital. Two larger sizes, approximately 18 in. x 26 in. and 22 in. x 30 in. are available for larger hospitals or for very busy laboratories.
Utility Rooms
So called utility rooms should be provided in all hospitals, one or more
on each floor, depending upon the area served, for all bed patients.
Separate utility rooms should be provided for surgical ward and maternity
departments.
.
Each utility room should contain, in addition to combination sink and tray, one 20 in. x 20 in. x 24 in. utensil sterilizer and one bedpan sterilizer. Those serving surgical and maternity patients should also contain an 8 in. x 9 in. x 18 in. instrument sterilizer and a 10 to 15
gal. water sterilizer.
The bedpan sterilizer is a combination bedpan washer, and sterilizer and is available only for steam heating. If steam is not available simply a bedpan washer, which uses hot water but no steam, should be provided for washing bedpans and a 16 in. x s15 in. x 20 in-, utensil sterilizer alongside the washer must be provided solely for the purpose of sterilizing bedpans. The utensil sterilizer of course may be for gas or electric heat.
Nursery
In the nursery equipment for pasteurizing milk and sterilizing milk bottles must be provided. In a small hospitat this may be a combined pasteurizing and sterilizing outfit but in larger ones time will be conserved by installing separate pasteurizing and bottle sterilizing equipment. Pasteurizers are obtainable in 54-72-144 and 288 bottle capacity, 8 oz. nursing bottles. About one hour is required for a cycle as laws frequently require the pasteurizing process to consume 30 min. When bottle
330

sterilizing is done separately a pressure type sterilizer for nursing bottles . is provided. Such a sterilizer must be used for no other purpose.
Sterilized water of course is required in the nursery and various con
siderations rpay decide whether or not a small water sterilizer must
be installed there,
.
Special Sterilization
.
.
Where contagious diseases may be handled provision should be made for dish sterilization. On a large scale dishes from contagious patients are sterilized in special sterilizing, dish washing machines. On a small scale however, a 20 in. x 20 in. x 24 in. utensil sterilizer fitted with special racks will serve the purpose. The sterilizing dish washing machines are referred to in the section on kitchen equipment.
For sterilization of mattresses, see the laundry equipment section of this chapter.
Specifying Sterilizers
The different manufacturers have sizes of sterilizers which are approxi
mately the same but not absolutely standardized as to sizes. It is there
fore advisable when specifying sizes to give approximate inside dimen
sions and minimum capacity in cubic inches and in cases, like the mattress
sterilizer referred to, where for some reason there are certain limitations
oh certain dimensions these limitations should be stated. '
'
Piping Systems and Pipe Sizes
Steam and return pipe sizes for sterilizers are almost nominal and the amount of steam used by such equipment is so small as to be negligible if drawn from a central plant for the heating. More detailed data is given
in tabular form hereinafter.
,.
A in. supply and return connection is ample for any utensil, instru
ment or dressing sterilizer. Water sterilizers up to 15 gal. use % in. supply and % in. return, above that size 1 in. supply and Yi in. return; For the large mattress sterilizers use 1J4 in. supply and % in. return.
Water stills up to 6 gal. use in. supply and return-.
-
When sizing the steam and return, mains it may be assumed that all sterilizers will be in use at one time in a small hospital and half of them in a large hospital.. The mains can then, be, sized, by the usual table of
equalization of pipe sizes. A- return main one half the . diameter of the
steam main, with % in. as minimum size, may be used.
.
The uniform practice is to provide a thermostatic trap on the return from each coil or unit of the size given previously for return connection.
The return main should itself be vented and condensation should return by gravity to a vented receiving tank. .
When gas is used a x/l in. connection is made to each instrument, dressing and utensil sterilizer. Water sterilizers up to 15 gal. capacity
should have M in. gas line and above that size 1 in. line. The mains should be sized on an equalization basis same as explained for steam supply
lines, assuming all sterilizers in use in a small hospital at the same time and half of them in a larger hospital.
331
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
Waste and Vent Systems
All open type sterilizers, i.e., those in whichthe articles to be sterilized are more or less immersed in water which is in turn heated by the steam must have waste connections similar to plumbing fixtures. With the exception of the bedpan sterilizer in which the trap is part of the fixture, traps on these waste lines must be provided in the plumbing work, the sterilizer equipment merely including a valve on the waste line and pipe to floor or wall, as may be required.
Waste connections are seldom more than 34 in. at the fixture, however, as the usual sanitary fittings for plumbing work are not standard in sizes less than 134 in- it is customary to provide traps and connections of, that size from the wall or floor line, as the case may be, to the waste piping of the plumbing system.
Waste connections from bedpan sterilizers are uniformly made 3 in. and trap is part of fixture, connected to floor or wall as required. This sterilizer waste should be connected up to the drainage system similar to a slop sink or water closet.
Vent connections are also necessary on such sterilizers to avoid the nuisance of steam and vapor in large quantities escaping into the room when a sterilization is finished and the sterilizer opened. Such connec tions usually take the form of a combined overflow and vent, connected into the back side of the chamber near tpp. This combined connection is usually carried as one horizontal pipe to a suitable location, as close to the sterilizer as possible, where the vent is taken upward as directly as pos sible to atmosphere and the overflow and condensation waste taken from the bottom through a suitable trap and connected to the waste lines of the plumbing system or connected to the waste from the body of the sterilizer between trap and sterilizer.
The usual sizes of combination overflow and vent connections to open
sterilizers are as follows: utensil sterilizers 1 34 in. up to 16 in. x 15 in. x 20 in.
size and 2 in. for larger sizes; instrument sterilizers 134 in. for all sizes;
milk pasteurizers and sterilizers 134 >n- up to 72 botjtle size and 2 in. for
larger sizes and for bedpan sterilizers 2 in. Vents to atmosphere are
same size as combination overflow and vent. The overflow connection to
plumbing waste pipes from the combination vent and overflow is 1J4 in
in all sizes of all sterilizers and is generally connected to the waste from
sterilizer body between trap and sterilizer.
Where practicable it is well to run the vents from sterilizer equipment through the roof separate from other plumbing vent lines and to make them extra heavy galvanized pipe for the large amount of condensation in them often destroys standard weight piping in the smaller sizes rather quickly. A 2 in. vent line will carry a half dozen sterilizers but in climates where freezing weather often occurs it is necessary to carry them at least 4 in. in size through the roof to avoid frosting over.
Care must be taken to see that the bases or heels of vent lines from
sterilizer equipment are drained through a suitable trap into the waste
lines of the plumbing system to take care of condensation in such lines
which might otherwise cause a nuisance by draining back into sterilizer
at the bottom of the line.
:
Closed, or pressure type, sterilizers, both jacketed and otherwise, re-
332
Chapter XIX--Laundry, Kitchen and Hospital Equipment and Piping Systems
quire a vent to atmosphere connected to the chamber and provided with a valve. The relief valve, with which every closed sterilizer must be pro vided, is usually connected to this vent line on the line side of the control valve. These vents are made, generally 34 in. from each sterilizer, but for reasons heretofore explained the vent lines, after wall or floor is reached, are made 134 in.; the bases or heels of vent pipes must be dripped into the plumbing system and the vents should be carried through the roof separately and often 4 in. or larger pipe is required through the roof for same reasons as in case of open sterilizers.
Sterilizer Data
Sterilizer data is given in tabular form and while this is not standard for all manufacturers it is intended to give a general idea of the various requirements. The dimensions of sterilizers of various manufacturers vary and likewise the capacity in cubic inches. The pounds of steam per sterilization would not be materially different for different makes of sterilizers of approximately the same size. The watts required in case of electric sterilizers would not be materially different for the combined requirements of an installation as a whole, but. the electrical require ments of individual sterilizers of same kind and size vary considerably with the different manufacturers. For instance a 12 x 20 in. dressing sterilizer of one manufacturer is rated for 3500 watts and the same sterilizer of another at 6000 watts. Obviously the one at 6000 watts would heat up more quickly and more work could be done with it. If the 3500 watt sterilizer was connected on a line designed for 6000 watts no harm would result but some useless copper would have been used but if the converse were permitted disaster would result. So in layouts for electric sterilizers the actual requirements of the sterilizer to be used must be investigated.
Frequently, both open and closed sterilizers of all kinds, are provided with condenser exhausts which consist of a special ejector, manipulated by a valve, throwing a stream of cold water into the ejector.

This condenser exhaust is a part of the fixture, when used, and generally
requires to waste over an open funnel, also part of the fixture, leading to
the plumbing system waste through a suitable trap or connected to waste
pipe from sterilizer chamber, between chamber and trap. Where separately
connected a
in. trap should be provided although the outlet of the
funnel'is smaller than; that size. The purpose of the open funnel is to prevent the creation of a pressure on the plumbing system'which is not
permissible.
A y<i in. water supply connection should be made to each sterilizer \
provided with this ejector. Such a pipe will carry a large number of such
ejectors for the reason that the operation requires only a short time and
more than one sterilizer will seldom be ejecting at the same time. Any
pressure above 25 lb. per square inch will operate these ejectors, the
higher the pressure the more efficiently the work is done and the less the
water is required. Cold water only is used.

Chapter xx
WATER SUPPLY SYSTEMS AND PIPING FOR BUILDINGS
Cold Water Supply, Risers and Connections, Pipe Sizes, Hot Water Supply, Sizes of Mains.
THE following gives a great deal of reliable data upon which to base water pipe sizes for plumbing fixtures, branches and mains, the former lack of which data has probably been due to the great number of variables which enter into their proper determination.
Plumbing fixtures in common use, having what is known as good water flow, deliver the quantities of water per outlet as given in Table 1.
Water flowing in pipes is retarded by friction, the extent of which
depends upon the velocity, which is the cause of unsatisfactory service
when pipes are too small. The amount of head necessary to overcome
this friction is known as the friction head, which is usually expressed in
feet. It is also known as pressure drop, usually expressed in pounds
per square inch per 100 ft. of pipe. The total pressure needed to discharge
a given quantity of water is the pressure necessary to overcome friction
in the pipes (when horizontal) plus the static pressure when the discharge
is higher than the supply.
.
Table 6 gives the water pressure required to deliver water to the top of a fixture up to 150 ft. in height, with 15 lb. pressure at the top branch. This table also gives the water pressure in pounds required to give ade quate service at various vertical heights up to 150 ft.
The underlying principle involved in determining the proper pipe sizes for mains, risers and branches is to so regulate the size of these pipes that they will carry the maximum amount of water required of them and
absorb by friction and static head, all the pressure at the source and still deliver water at the fixture in sufficient quantity, but at a pressure prac tically equalling zero or slightly above except that due to velocity of flow through the fixture,.
Table 1 gives the . amount of water in gallons which should flow per minute for the number of fixtures indicated of each different type, together with the branch pipe size necessary to carry this amount of water with a pressure drop of 30 lb. per 100 ft. of run.
The volume of water required per fixture is reduced as the number of
fixtures in each group is increased, to take care of. the factor of probable
use. "
.
In.estimating the pipe size for any part of a riser in a building of several stories, take 60 per cent of the water to be used on any floor and all floors above as determined from Table 1 and deduct 10 per cent for each floor
Material for this section was originally compiled for The Guide by.the late W. S. Timmis and has been revised for this edition by the following committee: Prof. S. E. Dibble, chairman; H. H. Angus, C. E. Hanson and Prof. G. L. Larson.. ' ' '

above. This reduction in estimated amount is to take care of probable use. Thus, if 100 gal. are used on each floor of a 10-story building the size or pipe will be determined as in Table. 2: .
The pressure drop of 30 lb. per 100 ft. of run will give satisfactory results for branches on the top floor but a higher pressure drop can be used on floors below corresponding with the pressures as given in Table 5 which show that for a building 100 ft. in height, a pressure drop of 100 lb. can be used on the fixture lowest branches and that for a building 50 ft.

in height, a pressure drop of 52 lb. can be used on the lowest fixture branches; Table 1, however, can be used with safety on any of the floors but will give pipe sizes larger than necessary for the lower floors in a very tall building.
Table 5 gives the amount of water in gallons which may be passed through pipes of % in. to 4 in. diameter with pressure drop from 5 lb. to 150 lb. per 100 ft. of run. This table may be used in sizing horizontal and vertical mains.
For example, if the water main pressure available is known, say 90 lb., and the horizontal run from water main to vertical riser is 100 ft., and the vertical riser is 100 ft. to'top branch; it will require 43.31 lb. for static head (see Table 6), and 15 lb. pressure at a minimum should be allowed for the uppermost fixture or a total of 58.31 lb. which would leave available for friction 90 -- 53.31 = 16.69 for friction in 200 ft. run, or

~ *TWe water pressures given in above table are the pressures at the base of the riser, necessary to deliver water to top of riser with a terminal pressure of 15 lb. when discharging the number of gallons per minute called for in Table 5, at the pressure drop indicated.
**Based uDon 10 lb. pressure drop per 100 ft. run of pipe and a terminal pressure of 15 lb. at the uppermost fixture. A terminal pressure of 15 lb. has been selected for operation of flush valves. For terminal pressure of 10 lb., deduct 5 lb. from the figures given above; or for a terminal pressure of 5 lb. deduct 10 lb. from above values.
Example.--What are the sizes required for mains and branches in. a building 100 ft*
high, supplied with a water pressure of.75 lb. per square inch with 100 gal. of water per
minute required on each floor?
...
This is worked out in Table 2 and gives the pipe sizes for the main riser with a 10 lb.
drop for 100 ft. of run and shows that a 3 in. main, reduced to 2 in., would be required:
branches to the various groups of fixtures can be taken from Tables 5 and 6. On the
top floor it will be necessary to use a 1^6 in. branch to carry 60 gal. per minute with a
pressure drop of 30 lb. but that at 30 ft. vertically from the supply, a V/i in. branch
pipe will carry 60 gal. per minute, therefore 1J4 in. pipe could be selected for this branch.
Assuming that the pressure drop in the main riser is 10 lb. per 100 ft. run and the pressure
drop on the top floor in the branch does not exceed 15 lb. in all and the static head for
building 100 ft. as given in column 2 of Table 6 is 43.31 lb. making a total of 58.311b.;
it will be seen that 75 lb.-58.31 lb., which equals 16.59 lb., is the amount of pressure
over and above that required, and that this pressure can be utilized to overcome the
friction drop in the main feed line running from the source of supply to the base of the
riser.
FromTable2it is found that 240 gal. per minute will flow at the first floor, and assuming
that this water supply is to be brought in a main 300 ft. long; Table 5 will show that a
in. supply would be necessary.
'
Example.--What pressure is required in the water supply main to give 15 lb. pressure
at the uppermost fixture in a building where the riser is 100 ft. high and is located
75 ft. from the water main in a horizontal direction, when the other fixtures within
the building are in use to their estimated average capacity?
:
Answer is found to be 75.8 lb. at the intersection of 100 ft. vertical height and 75 ft.
horizontal run.
...
Note.--If only 10 lb. be required at the uppermost fixture, then 70.8 lb. would be the answer.
WHEN TANK IS ON ROOF
If tank is elevated about 35 ft. above highest fixture, which would be about 25 ft. above the roof, similar computations will apply for branch
339
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
connections and main risers except that the main riser will have its greatest diameter at the top. It will be seen that 35 ft. elevation will give the necessary 15 lb. pressure at the highest fixture and that the pressure drop may be made equal to the static head from the top fixtures down, or 40 lb. per 100. . '
FRICTION IN ELBOWS
Friction caused by elbows should be added to straight pipe friction. Each elbow in a line will add friction equal to a length of straight pipe forty times the diameter of the pipe:

The water supply formula herewith makes it possible to accurately compute the flow of water in gallons through any pipe with any friction head and also gives formula for the additional head due to water entering the main, which, if extremely accurate calculations are necessary, should be added to the head required for friction; generally, however, this can be neglected as it is comparatively small.
WATER SUPPLY FORMULA
CF = cubic feet per minute discharged. G = gallons per minute discharged. H -- friction head of water in feet = pressure X 2.31; if water is raised vertically, deduct number of feet raised, from head due to pressure. L = length of pipe in feet--including horizontal and vertical runs.

In the above case the head due to entry would be Hi

Usually this can be neglected except for very close calculations.

Chapter XX--Water Supply Systems and Piping for Buildings
HOT WATER SUPPLY
,
Tables 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11 give the hot-water requirements for several kinds of buildings in terms of gallons per maximum hour and per day.
Pipe sizes for hot-water systems may be calculated from the foregoing
data on cold-water systems; using the same quantities for the gallons of
hot water required per minute as is given for the cold water. It may be
borne in mind that a column of hot water is lighter than one of cold water
amounting to about
ft. per 100 ft. in the height of columns of equal
weight. In cas'e the cold water must first be fed down from roof tanks to
heaters in the basement and then back up to the top floor fixtures, the
extra length of run must be taken into consideration. As a check on the
total quantity of hot and cold water required per day it is well to know
that this generally runs from 2 to 3 times the amount of hot water re
quired and from 80 to 100 gal. per occupant of the building.

PIPE AND FITTINGS
Standard Dimensions, Composition of Material, Copper and Brass, Roughiog-ln Dimen* sions. Design of Fittings. -
DURING the past 20 years in particular there has been a remarkable development in the wrought tubular industry, including the tonnage used, the capacity of mills, diversity of pipe service, and improvements in the material itself.
The factors which control the characteristics and properties, and thus produce the modern improvement in various tubular materials, are the facilities of the manufacturer; the special processes employed; the availa bility and quality of raw materials and the ideals and skill of the men in the organization.
Among modern improvements none have received, greater attention than the efforts to produce a uniform quality of wrought pipe. To - secure and maintain uniformity, necessitates complete control of all materials and manufacturing operations--from ore to finished product. This practice of producing uniform skelp and its fabrication into finished tubular products is supplemented by a mechanical process of roll-knob bing, to make the metal more uniformly dense when there is any tendency to physical irregularity in this respect.
Another condition which gives rise to electrolytic centers and pitting is the presence of irregular areas of heavy welding-scale on the surface of the finished product, caused by oxidation at the high'temperature of welding. This scale is strongly electro-negative to iron, like copper, and should therefore be removed in the interest of preventing corrosion.
Other advantages of having the scale removed from pipe are: its clean, smooth surfaces present an -ideal .base for the .adherence of a galvanizing coating, full working capacity is assured (the interior being free from any obstructions tending to reduce the flow), troubles caused by the deposit of scale in valves, strainers, and other apparatus, are practi cally eliminated and pitting by corrosion is materially reduced.
Scale removal, where accomplished in the process of manufacture, is done by passing the oversize pipe through a series of finishing rolls (after its temperature has been reduced to about 1800 deg. fahr.) which rolls reduce it to the proper size and also crack the hardened welding-scale from both the inside and the outside of the pipe. The loose scale is then washed or blown off. While with such expedients considerable improve ment has been attained, the fact still remains that the life of pipe is governed largely by .installation conditions, and no matter how well made
Material for this Chapter was prepared especially by S. E. Dibble, Thomas Dugan. James Ashton and
G. Schneider.

or uniform the pipe may be, its life, particularly under severe corrosion conditions; such as, hot-water supply lines, boiler feed and return lines, is limited, and some protective measures are necessary to secure a longer life.

water systems, which are based on- the removal of dissolved oxygen from the water. Careful experiments in various research laboratories have demonstrated that the amount of corrosion found in such systems is almost directly proportional to the amount of oxygen in solution, and varies with the temperature.
All reliable data on this subject indicate that the composition of the iron--i.e., the varying amount of carbon, phosphorous, manganese, sul phur, silicon, oxides, slag and copper usually found in wrought.iron and soft steel---makes Very little difference in the amount or character of

corrosion under water, although under atmospheric exposure the influence of composition is sometimes more marked.
In practice, oxygen removal has-been accomplished in two ways, namely; by de-aerating the water mechanically; and by fixing the free oxygen by chemical combination. Suitable apparatus is now being manufactured for this purpose.

Tables 1 and 2 give the important physical properties of Standard and Extra Heavy Wrought Pipe.
Copper and Brass Pipe
Copper and brass tubing are commonly stocked and supplied in sizes varying from to 10 in. o. d. and in gages from 2 to 25 B. & S. and Stubbs.
Copper and brass pipes are stocked and supplied in standard, extra heavy and double extra heavy iron pipe thicknesses and sizes. See Tables 1 and 2. Both tubing and piping are usually stocked in 12 ft. lengths, and can be obtained in lengths from 2 to 20 ft. or more if required.
The serviceability and usefulness of brass piping is due principally to its inherent resistance to corrosion. For this reason it is used for boiler

feed systems, water supply systems, and for other purposes where cor
rosion is an important consideration.
.
Corrosion is caused by the chemical interaction between the oxygen of the atmosphere and the metallic surfaces. In the case of closed water systems this applies also to the oxygen of the air dissolved in the water. This type of corrosion or oxidation is universal and is the chief cause of the deterioration and decay of metals and alloys used in engineering. Other types of corrosion or chemical decomposition frequently occur and are very often due to the action of acids on the metals.
In cities sulphur dioxide, chlorides, sulphides and other ingredients also have a distinct corrosive influence.
Copper or brass piping does not discolor the water, which it conveys, with rust. Due to its maintenance of a smooth, unrusted interior, full flow and pressure are continued throughout the life of . the system, and piping friction losses do not increase with age of the system.
Certain special conditions conducive to Corrosion may require special mixtures, in order to obtain for the piping systems the longest life. Where unusual factors of corrosion are present, the engineer or contractor should heed the recommendations of the pipe manufacturer. In all cases, pipe fittings should have approximately the same composition as the metal of the pipe itself.
FITTINGS
Fig. 1 shows the usual method of designating fittings.
The dimensions of cast-iron and malleable screw fittings should be in accordance with the standards approved by the American Engineering Standards Committee.

CHAPTER XXII
design and operating data for mechan ical EQUIPMENT OF FEDERAL BUILDINGS UNDER
CONTROL OF U. S. TREASURY DEPARTMENT
Heating Requirements, Boiler Capacity, Electric Requirements, Water Requirements, Elevator Requirements, Sanitary Equipment, Isolated Plants, Janitorial Service.
THE following data have been compiled by Nelson Thompson, Chief Mechanical and Electrical Engineer, Office of the Supervising Archi tect, U. S. Treasury Department, Washington, D. C., to show the principles upon which the installation and operation of the mechanical equipment of Federal Buildings under the control of the United States Treasury Department are based.
It is not intended to be of a highly technical or research character, but of a more practical nature, for the use of the busy architect or engineer in thegeneral planning or arranging of mechanical equipment for buildings ' of this character.
While much of the data referred to do not pertain strictly to heating and ventilating, it is so related so as to come within the scope and practice of heating and ventilating engineers and will, it is hoped, be of general interest to those engaged in this field of work.

employee for each 100 sq. ft; of net office space, divided, about 70 per cent
for men and 30 per cent for women.
.
Private toilet's are always provided, for the postmaster, judge and petit juries. They may also be provided for other officials in special cases.
Lavatories are installed in all office rooms or suites. .
Fire hose are not installed in the small one story buildings. Where installed in larger buildings they are so located that no room is over 75 ft. from the hose cabinet.
Material for this Chapter was prepared especially for The Guide by Nelson S. Thompson. 349

The size of the main sewer from the building to the city sewer is generally not less than 6 in.
Where sewers are combined, or where the sanitary sewer is less than 4 ft. below the basement floor, back water valves are installed to protect basement fixtures and areas. For combined sewers the roof water is separated, so far as possible, from the sanitary drainage.
A cleanout manhole is installed on the main sewer line just inside the basement wall to facilitate testing and cleaning the connection to the city sewer. If the center line of main sewer is more than 30 in. below the floor, cleanout manholes are made,22 x 40 in. ' " .
The minimum size of water service for any building is 1*4 in.' without
fire hose, and 2 in. with fire hose. All fire risers are 2 in. No meters are
installed, but outlets are provided for same. Connections for fire lines
are taken off just inside the main shut-off valve on street side of meter
outlets.
'
HOT WATER HEATERS AND STORAGE TANKS
In the smaller buildings 20 gal. in the storage tank is allowed for each shower bath, TO gal. for each sink and 5 gal. for each lavatory. This works out on an average in these buildings as a 65 gal. tank, a cast-iron water heater with 12 in. grate and an. indirect type of heating element connected below the water line of the heating boiler.
In the larger buildings the storage tank is usually about 36 in. diameter by 8 ft. long, contains 424 gal. and has a copper steam coil of 36 lin. ft. 2 in. diameter tubing. The cast-iron water heater has an 18 in. grate.
DRINKING WATER
Consideration is not given to the installation of mechanically refrig erated drinking water systems in any building with less than 2,500,000 cu. ft. contents, nor where there are fewer than-20 drinking fountains or less than 500 occupants for the reason that from October 1, to April 1, iced-drinking water is not furnished in buildings located north of .the 37th parallel of latitude. South of that line it is furnished the year around. The average cost of the, ice purchased throughout the United States is 55 cents per 100 lb. and the consumption averages, north of the 37 parallel, in summer, 1H lb. per day per occupant for the period of 180 days. No labor can be saved by mechanical refrigeration when fewer than 20 drinking fountains-are to be'iced daily.
In the smaller post offices and court houses the following rule is used:
Drinking fountains on the basis of one fountain for each- 50 employees
are to be installed in all large and small post-office workrooms. A drink
ing fountain is also to be installed in each corridor on upper floors in the
smaller buildings. One pint of refrigerated drinking water per hour is
allowed for each occupant.
.-
HEATING
.
One-pipe steam distribution is used for small and medium sized build-, ings except where there is a central heating service, when the system in the building is so designed that the outside service can be used.

Boilers, generally in the smaller buildings are single pass and in the larger buildings double pass firebox portable type. Care is taken to see that the architect provides a stack of ample size ahd height. In general, a fire-brick lined stack 21x21 in. inside is provided for the smaller buildings.
Fuel rooms are provided on a basis of 1 sq. ft. for each 1000 cu. ft. gross cubic contents of the building and are in no case less than 500 sq. ft. in floor area.
Mechanical ventilation is installed for court rooms and, sometimes, for other assembly rooms in larger buildings.
The ratio of direct steam radiation to the architectural cubic contents of the building will average 1 to 110.
CONDUIT AND WIRING
Ceiling lighting outlets in post-office working spaces are spaced approxi mately 10 ft.'on centers. Each screen window has a bracket outlet. Lock box and similar screen sections have bracket outlet spaced approximately
3 ft. apart. One city telephone per each 1200 sq. ft. of net floor area is about the
average which must be provided for.
The illumination, exclusive of furniture lighting, is figured on the basis of one watt per square foot for all post-office working spaces, swing rooms, lobbies and office rooms and % watt per square foot for corridors, toilets and similar rooms. Court rooms are figured at two watts per square foot. Boiler rooms and basement storage rooms are supplied with drop cord outlets, using 25 watt lamps, spaced approximately 15 ft. apart. One drop cord outlet is installed for gage light on the boiler. Fuel rooms have one drop cord outlet at the entrance.
ELEVATORS
Regularly, one.passenger elevator is allowed for each 40,000 gross floor area above the first floor, and as a check against this, one elevator for every 300 occupants of the building above the first floor is used.
Elevators are located as close as possible to the entrances to the building. Not more than six elevators are placed in any one bank.
Elevator conditions in Federal Buildings are very different from those obtained in high class office buildings--the service will not be so frequent.
MARINE HOSPITALS .
None of the foregoing rules apply to Marine Hospitals. In fact, few rules can be established for the design of the mechanical equipment of these establishments. Data for the equipment of a hospital recently designed by the Office of the Supervising Architect are-as follows:
The kitchen is provided with hoods over the ranges, steam kettles,
etc. Motor-driven fans exhaust from these hoods, giving 12 air changes
per hour.
.'
The main dietdcitchen is equipped with a gas-range about 30 in. long,' a large refrigerator with brine'coils supplied from the central refrigerating plant, and a steel table having mounted thereon a motor-driven fruit juice extractor and a small motor-driven mixing machine.

The serving and diet kitchens in the main building are each equipped
with a household type gas range and an automatic electric refrigerator.
As food for the wards will be distributed'generally by means of insulated
food carts direct from the main kitchen, diet kitchen equipment has been
kept to the minimum.
-.
In addition to the above equipment, however, two of the diet kitchens
are provided with dishwashers with steam sterilizing equipment for use
in case of contagious diseases.
.
The main serving kitchen and dining rooms are located on the main floor directly over the kitchen. An electric dumb-waiter is provided for carrying food between the kitchen and serving rooms. An average of 60 per cent of the patients in Public Health Service Hospitals are am bulant. This gives about 150 patients to be served from the main-serving

kitchen. The serving kitchen is about 20x 40 ft. and is arranged in cafeteria style. It has a steam table 10 ft. long, provided with meat,
soup and vegetable dishes, and about 30 lin. ft. of counters with tray slides. This steam table and counter is ample to serve at least 300 people per hour, so that the 150 patients can be served in one-half hour. The counters and steam table are made of galvanized iron, finished with lacquer paint, and are equipped with solid nickel silver tops. They have
storage shelves with sliding doors underneath.
The dining rooms for patients aggregate about 2500 sq. ft. or about
17 sq. ft. per person served.
.
A large dishwasher is located adjacent to the dining rooms, and a smaller dishwasher is located on the first floor to serve dining rooms on that floor, so that all dishes are washed on the same floor as that on which they are used, thereby greatly reducing the required capacity of the
dumb-waiter.
Nurses and attendants are served in separate dining rooms on the same
floor as the patients, and in a dining room on the first floor adjacent to
the main kitchen.

About 6000 engineers, janitors, laborers, firemen, charwomen, me chanics, etc., are employed to care for these buildings. There is approxi mately one employee of this character for each 100,000 cu. ft. of building
content..
To approximate roughly, one mechanic or maintenance man proper is estimated for each 1,000,000 cu. ft. In addition, a fireman force is
estimated on the following basis:
.
One man to each 800 to 1000 tons of coal fired when.steam is generated the year round, or one man to each 400 to 500 tons when steam is gener ated during the heating season only. If an electric generating plant is operated, three additional watch engineers are required. The foregoing does not include the cleaning force.
In a building containing an electric generating plant and having a
cubic content of about 18,000,000 cu. ft. using 9000 tons of coal, the
force so obtained is split up about as follows:
.
One chief engineer, 4 assistant engineers, 1 plumber, 1 electrician, 14 engineer helpers (general mechanics, oilers, etc.) and 10 firemen.
A laborer is expected to keep clean, on an average, 6000 to 8000 sq. ft.

of floor area, while a charwoman (working five hours per day) is expected to keep clean 3000 sq. ft.
The average cost per square foot of net floor area for all items of maintenance and operation, both material and labor (except repairs), is
about 25 cents in the new buildings and 30 cents in buildings of the older and more antiquated type.
The average cost of fuel and labor to heat the buildings, using bitu minous coal (at approximately $5.33 per ton) is cent per cubic foot per annum.

An analysis of all the Federal Buildings for which steam is purchased shows that north of Richmond, Va., approximately 5 lb. of steam is used per cubic foot per season for heating the.buildings. This, of course, varies widely due to local conditions, winds, building construction, manner of operation, etc. In fact, in the north we will get, in the same t State, variations running from 3 lb. of steam per cubic foot for one building to 7 lb. for another building.
Generally-speaking, an isolated electric generating plant begins to be feasible in a Federal Building when the full connected load is 150 k.w. or more, the annual current consumption 200,000 k.w.h. or more and

equivalent of direct radiation by multiplying the square feet of heating surface in the fan blast coils by 3; arid after all surface is reduced to equivalent direct steam radiation, to ascertain the total steam required per annum, the number of square feet of equivalent direct steam radiation is multiplied by 500. This is used as a check on the first assumption, and the mean of the two quantities is usually taken.
Indirect steam radiation (where no fan is used) is reduced to equivalent direct steam radiation by multiplying by 1)^.
To reduce direct hot water to direct steam equivalent, it is divided by 1.6.
The average demand for electric power and light will be the total annual consumption divided by 8760, and the maximum demand will be two and Qne-half times the average demand in a 24 hour building and five times the average demand in an 8 hour building.
High grade 4-valve or una-flow engines are assumed to require 50 lb. of steam for each kilowatt-hour generated, on the switchboard, with 80 per cent allowance for the exhaust into the heating system. A rough check is to allow 5 lb. of coal for each kilowatt-hour generated. In the old style engine in common, use 70 lb. of steam per kilowatt-hour is a fair average.
To reduce the pounds of steam to coal, covering all losses in the plant, an average evaporation of 8 to 1 is assumed for bituminous coal in the larger plants, 7 to 1 in the smaller plants, and 6 to 1 for anthracite pea or buckwheat coal.
Roughly, 6/10 lb. of coal per cubic foot is required per year for heating the ordinary building, while in buildings containing electric generating plants 1 lb. of coal per cubic foot is approximately correct for all purposes. Roughly, the maximum electrical demand in the large buildings averages 6/10 k.w. per square foot of gross floor area.
For boiler room repairs allow 82.00 per horsepower nominal rating.
For engine room repairs allow $2.00 per annum per kilowatt total nominal rating of generator.
For boiler and engine room supplies allow $2.00 per annum per horse power of boilers installed.
Boiler room labor averages $2:00 per ton of coal fired, based on an 8 hour shift and 48 hours per week.
Ash removal averages 1/5 of a cubic yard to each ton of coal burned and is estimated to cost $1.00 per cubic yard to remove it.
The labor in a Federal Building containing an electric generating plant will roughly average the same as the cost of the coal, supplies and repairs to the boilers and electric generators.
The fixed charges for machinery in a Federal Building are 3 per cent interest and 5 per cent depreciation per annum on engines, boilers, etc. while on buildings, tunnels, etc., 2 per cent depreciation per annum is allowed.
The annual dividend which must be earned by the ordinary isolated Federal plant in comparison with the purchase of current from a public utility company is 10 per cent on the cost of the Government plant.

CHAPTER XXIII
MODERN STANDARDS OF VENTILATION AND MEASUREMENTS OF AIR QUALITY AND QUANTITY
General Requirements, Air Supply, Temperature, Recirculation, Testing Methods, Instruments, Physiological Effects, Human Comfort, Comfort Charts, Comfort Zone,
Humidity and Comfort.
VENTILATION is the science that treats of air in relation to human comfort, health, and efficiency. A study of the science of ventilation is a study of the best methods of conditioning and handling air, and a study of the effect of that air on the human system. The test of good ventila tion is the measure of health, comfort and efficiency derived from it.
In general the application of ventilation applies to spaces which are densely occupied by human beings, such as auditoriums and school rooms, to spaces in which atmospheric contamination or overheating would otherwise occur, as under, certain industrial conditions, and to spaces in which a fixed and controlled air condition is required, as in certain manufacturing processes. It is the object of ventilation to provide and maintain the desired atmospheric conditions.
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS OF VENTILATION
In the present status of the art of ventilation it is no longer felt that
the chemical composition of the air is the important factor, but that
proper ventilation depends upon a number of other factors which may be stated as follows:
1. Air Supply.
2. Air Temperature. 3. Relative Humidity. 4. Mr Motion.
The four factors, in combination, are the bases of what is termed " Effective Temperature."
5.. Air purity, in reference to its freedom from odors, dust, bacteria, toxic.gases, and other objectionable matter.
6. Air Distribution, with reference to general distribution, air movement, and free dom from drafts.
7. Psychological effects.
357
American Society o/Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
Chapter XXIII--Modern Standards of Ventilation .
Air supply is not the all important factor in ventilation, but the amount
AIR TEMPERATURE
of air to be supplied per person, or the number of air changes to be fur nished for any particular space, may be considered the starting point, for the air supply may be used as a means to an end in providing the conditions desired.
AIR SUPPLY FOR VENTILATION
III A comparatively small quantity of air supply is required to take care
of the needs of the lungs. A large quantity of air is required to meet
It has been the experience of accredited engineers that overheating is detrimental to the quality of ventilation, and more harmful to human beings, than any other one thing.
Dry bulb temperatures are customarily required as given in Chapter I under Inside Temperatures.
Methods of controlling air temperature in ventilating plants are dis cussed under Automatic Heat Control, Chapter XVI and Air Condi tioning and Cooling, Chapter XXV.
the needs of the outside of the body and to provide the heat control necessary for the maintenance of health and comfort. In order to provide the necessary air movement to maintain uniform temperature conditions,
remove odors and provide comfort, in spaces of considerable occupancy, the delivery by the ventilating plant of the following quantities of air, have been general practice and Table I gives the quantities of air re
quired on the basis of occupancy and air changes: The laws of many States require 30 cu. ft. of air per minute per pupil
in classrooms. At the instance of Investigators who feel that this may"
be unnecessary, studies of this subject are being made.
Freedom from injurious substances, such as gases and fumes, may be of the utmost importance. These are handled usually by mechanical exhaust ventilation with effective distribution of inlets to the exhaust ducts. This phase of ventilation involves, in one way or another, nearly all of the other items. See Chapter XXXII Dust, Exhaust and Collecting Systems.
Relative humidity bears an intimate relationship to air supply and air temperature. These relations are described under Physiological Effects of Ventilation in this Chapter.
The effective temperature index fixes no limits for relative humidity. Two practical limits are 30 to 60 per cent, the lower to hold during the

Air purity has to do with human health, both from.the standpoint of freedom from dust and other suspended substances, and from the stand
point of freedom from bacteria and other infectious media carried along with the dirt in air. Methods of cleaning air are treated in Chapter XXIX.
Freedom from odors is often accomplished by plentiful air supply and

These quantities assume the introduction of air of proper quality and they may be subject to change as may be indicated by local or special conditions. Many other spaces will be found in which ventilation is .
required. See Code of Minimum Requirements for the Heating and Ventilation
of Buildings, adopted by A. S. H. & V. E. in 1925, also Chapters XXIV
and XXV.
VENTILATION DESIGN
In the practical work of engineers who design mechanical ventilating systems, and of. architects and owners who have to pass upon these systems, the one item which is the basis of all calculations and layouts, is the quantity of air to be handled by the ventilating system to produce the results desired. The functions of the air handled in connection with ventilated spaces are: (1) to supply the necessary oxygen for'respiration, (2) to keep the dilution of objectionable substances down to the proper
proportion, and (3) to maintain the proper effective air temperature. It has been estimated that an adult at rest will breathe 0.25 cu. ft. of air per minute and exhale 0.01 cu. ft. of CO in the same period, or at the rate of 0.6 cu. ft. per hour, thus removing about 5 per cent of the
358
359
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
oxygen from the air actually breathed. This does not necessarily indicate the effect on the air in the room occupied. The same air may be re breathed for a limited time without apparent harmful effect. Air may be filtered, washed, cooled and recirculated with evident satisfaction.
The air handled by the ventilating system may consist entirely of air taken in from the outside or it may consist partly of new air and partly
of recirculated air.
HEAT FROM OCCUPANTS, LIGHTS, EQUIPMENT
In a crowded place of assemblage the heat given off by the occupants, together with' that given off by the lighting and power equipment, is
usually more than the normal heat loss through the structure to the out side air, even in winter under cold climatic conditions. This means that in order to preserve an equilibrium of effective temperature the entering air must be cooler than the leaving air, so that the problem is usually one of cooling and ventilating, rather than of heating and ventilating.
A typical case for winter might show about 300 B.t.u. of body heat, plus 100 B.t.u. per person from light, etc., being given up to the building against about 200 B.t.u. heat loss from the building, per person per hour. This would mean that 200 B.t.u. per person must be carried away by
the air. (See page 60, Chapter I.)
.
If the flow of air is upward, or from the side, so as to bring the incoming
air into direct contact with the occupants, the temperature of the incoming
air should not be more than 5 deg. below the temperature of the air
leaving the occupant, otherwise the conditions will be drafty and uncom fortable. Where the air is admitted through the ceiling, and the ceiling
is high, the temperature difference may be slightly increased and, in
some cases, the air quantity may be slightly decreased.
If a room is crowded in weather of 85 deg. outside temperature, with
relative humidity of 70 per cent while giving each occupant 30 cu. ft.
of air per minute, it may be assumed, that there will be an increase of
temperature of at least 5 deg., due to body heat and heat from equip
ment. The moisture increase, from the bodies of the occupants, may be assumed as 10 grains per minute, or 0.30 grains per cubic foot of air
handled. Under such a condition some method of air cooling will be needed to
obtain satisfactory ventilation. A good air washer may reduce the tem perature of the air passing through it'about 70 per cent of the difference between the wet and the dry bulb temperatures. Its operation would
hardly be worth while without a water supply of 50 deg. temperature or less because of increasing relative humidity with a decreasing tempera ture. The beneficial effect of an air washer will increase in proportion
as the relative humidity of the outside air is lower. It will be understood that the example cited is an extreme case of
temperature and humidity. Experience, however, shows that a supply of fresh air which proves
to be adequate for maintaining a desirable effective temperature in
winter will prove inadequate for the same purpose in hot weather. While
an increased volume of air supply is often,of material benefit, the use of
- 360
Chapter XXIII--Modern Standards of Ventilation
refrigeration brings the final hot weather solution, not so much in actual
temperature drop as in humidity control.
.
When using an upward system of air supply, as through floor mush
rooms, drafts will be felt with the introduction of air at temperatures of more than 5 deg. cooler than the average room temperature. For this
reason, and for the additional reasons of sanitation and control, the
downward system of ventilation is perhaps more efficacious in large and
intensively occupied places of assemblage. The air should be brought in at a point high enough to permit of its being diffused before corning into contact with the occupants.
RECIRCULATION
Where recirculation of air in ventilation work is utilized care should be taken that the recirculated air is suitable. In many cases it must be
reconditioned by cleaning, dehumidifying and deodorizing. The saving
in operating costs obtainable by recirculation of the air in ventilation systems, while very considerable, must not be obtained at the expense of quality. A reduction in the quality of the ventilation when recircu
lation is used can be prevented by the installation and use of complete mechanical ventilation equipment available for this purpose.
The percentage of recirculated air may be varied to suit the seasonal
changes so as to conserve heat in winter and,refrigeration in summer, but
at no time should the recirculated air exceed 75 per cent of the total air supply.
Toilets and similar rooms, in buildings using recirculation, should be
separately, mechanically ventilated, with the exhaust in excess of the
supply, in order to prevent objectionable odors from diffusing into other
parts of the building.
.
PSYCHOLOGICAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL REACTIONS
The engineer who disregards the psychological factor in ventilation
is indeed short sighted. As in most human contacts and activities, the
effect on the mind of air conditions is profound.
.
Consideration must always be given to the elimination of objectionable noise from machinery and to air friction noises. It is usually helpful if the occupants of a Ventilated room may visualize some indication that air is moving. It helps if they may, when they wish, place their bodies
or portions thereof, in sensible air currents, to demonstrate that venti lation is in effect. Periodical or occasional temperature reductions, or
increases in air movement, possibly accompanied by muscular exercises,
are of great value, psychologically as well as physically.
After a good ventilating system is designed the engineer is only fairly well started on the road to good ventilation. A system is not a ventilating
system until it ventilates. Here is where the operating man and proper supervision of operation come in. It is recommended that the engineer who designs a ventilation plant should supervise its installation, and that his interest and responsibility should be maintained during the
operation of the plant.
361
American Society- of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
It is a familiar fact that a room may be comfortable at one temperature and yet decidedly uncomfortable at another time at the same dry bulb
temperature. This fact may be due either to a change of relative hu midity or to air motion. On the other hand a room may feel equally
comfortable with different dry bulb temperatures provided the relative humidity or air motion is varied to produce this effect, Other factors enter into this problem, such as changes of clothing (seasonal or other
wise), acclimatization, degree of activity, etc. The prolonged effect of temperature, humidity and air motion upon
health is not so well understood as their effect upon comfort. Strictly
speaking good ventilation is merely a relative term, but today ventilation is considered.necessary for personal comfort and for good health. These reactions are further discussed under Physiological Effects of Ventilation
in this Chapter.
'
TESTING METHODS AND APPARATA
Temperaturer In the measuring of room temperatures care must be exercised to pre
vent the results from being affected, by the body heat of the observer, by drafts from doors, windows and other openings or by radiant heat
from some local source such as a radiator, a wall, etc. All thermometers should be mercury thermometers with engraved stems. The total gradu ations of the thermometers should be from 20 to 120. deg. fahr., in one degree graduations. No ten degrees should occupy a space of less than
in. The accuracy throughout the whole scale must be within one-half
degree. The operator should take hold of the top and no part of. the body, including the hand, should be nearer than 10 in. to the bulb; The
thermometer should not be closer than 5 ft. to any door, window, or other opening; should not be closer than 12 in. to any wall, and should be between 4 and 6 ft. from the floor. A sling instrument should be used
for extreme accuracy. For measuring duct temperatures an. angle duct thermometer should
be used, having a flange to bolt on the side of the duct, with the bolt
extending into the duct at least 6 in. Recording thermometers, generally have considerable lag and should
not be used for the taking of temperatures for testing, but rather for giving continuous records of the operation of the plant, as the charts will indicate any lack of attention on the part of those responsible for
the operation of the plant.
'
Humidity The sling psychrometer is the recognized standard instrument for
determining humidities. In order to obtain accurate readings consider able skill is required on the part of the operator. The wicking must be clean, distilled water should be used, and the temperature of the water should be slightly above the wet bulb temperature of the sur
rounding air.
'
The psychrometer should be swung rapidly and two or three obser
vations should be made to see that the wet bulb temperature has gotten
to a point where it is stationary before the final reading is noted. Errors
362
Chapter XXIII--Modern Standards of Ventilation
in reading wet and dry bulb thermometers are usually because of not obtaining a complete depression of the wet bulb temperature.
The standard dry and wet bulb tables giving the relative humidity
should be used with sling psychrometer readings.
.
In taking humidity readings in ducts it is practically impossible to
use a sling psychrometer. For this work the stationary hygrodeik ar ranged for bolting on to the side of the ducts, with two bolts extending into the ducts, will be found very convenient. Due to the velocity of
the air passing over the bolts within the ducts an accurate reading will be secured, corresponding to those given by the sling psychrometer.
CO, Determinations
'
The amount of carbon dioxide in the air, while not a harmful element, is a convenient index of the rate of air supply, or of the frequency of air. change in an occupied room, and of the distribution of the air within
large rooms. A high carbon dioxide value indicates air stagnation and liability to stale odors and overheating.
The Peterson-Palmquist apparatus has been generally accepted as the standard device for the determination of carbon dioxide in air investiga tions. The principle involved is the measurement of a given volume of air, the absorption of the contained carbon dioxide in a caustic potash solution, and the re-measurement of the volume of air at the original pressure in a finely graduated capillary tube, the difference in volume representing the absorbed carbon dioxide. See Report of Committee on Standard Methods for Examination of Air. American Public Health Association, Vol. 7, No. 1 American Journal of Public Health, Jan., 1917.)
Where field conditions are such that, this apparatus may not be con veniently used, as in street cars, the laboratory method is recommended.
Dust
-
Atmospheric dust becomes of great importance in certain industrial processes, and if the dust be siliceous in nature the hazard to health may be very serious.
The Hill Dust Counter is a simple device with which to measure the
number of very large particles of dust in the air, while more exact studies of dust may be made with the Konimeter, or with the Impinger. (See Public Health Bulletin No. 144, 1925, U. S.. Public Health Service.)
Bacteria
The number of bacteria which are' attached to heavy particles of dust or drops of moisture may be determined by the number of colonies that develop on a culture plate which has been exposed for two minutes. A
standard 4 in. Petrie dish, with agar-agar for a media, is used for this
purpose. The plates are incubated from 24 to 48 hours at a temperature of 98 deg. fahr. At the end of this time the separate colonies have de
veloped to a size which are easily counted. If an incubator is not available,
cultures may be grown at room temperatures (70 deg.) for a period of
five days.
.'
The number of bacteria actually present in the air may be determined
by the use qf the Wallace and Tiernan Sampling Pump or the Impinger,
with subsequent plating.

VOLUMETRIC AIR MEASUREMENTS
Volumetric air measurements must be made with skill and precision and great care must be taken in securing the right conditions under which such measurements are made. There afe two general methods in use for measuring air volumes, the first being the anemometer method, and the second, by means of determining the kinetic energy of the moving
air current by the use of suitable U-gages containing a fluid (known as the Pitot tube method). The use of these two methods is described in
ChWaphtieler XthXeXaInVe.mometers give the air velocities directly, the kinetic
measurements of the air current require specially constructed gages, tubes, etc. Generally speaking, it will require considerable more skill to take volumetric air measurements by means of the latter method,
whereas the anemometer method can be used fairly accurately after a
short experience.
ANEMOMETERS
The ordinary anemometers should be used for the lower velocities only,
the maximum range being considered as from 2 to 20 ft. per second.
In testing the air flow in a large ventilating plant a preliminary meas urement should first be made as to secure a general knowledge of the air distribution. Before preliminary readings are taken all dampers and registers should be opened. Preliminary readings can be made by holding the anemometer 2 in. from the register face or grille and going slowly back and forth over the entire area of the register for one-half minute's time. The amount of air should be computed for the entire area travelled
by the anemometer, no deduction being madefor the metal of the register
itsAelft.er preliminary readings and adjustments, the final readings should be taken. The registers or openings should then be proportioned off in about 8 in. squares and a reading taken on each square, the average of
velocities to be taken as the average air velocity through the register
orWgrhilelere. exterior diffusers are used, the average velocity should be deter mined by placing over the diffuser a suitable cellar of not less than four times the length of the distance that the diffuser extends beyond the
wall face and readings taken as above described for registers. . The time for taking readings should be not less than one-half minute
for the preliminary measurements and as much time as is required to
secure accurate readings for the final measurements. Anemometers should be calibrated frequently as to their accuracy
under the varying velocities, and all readings should be corrected in accordance with the calibration curve for the particular instrument used.
(See Report on Measuring Air Velocities with the Anemometer, with
discussion, American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers
Transactions 1913, Vol. 19, pp. 202 to 207.)
PITOT TUBES
Measurements of air velocities exceeding 20 ft. per second should be
made by means of pitot tubes. Volumetric determinations from pitot
' 364
'
XXIII--Chapter
Modern Standards of Ventilation
tube readings must take into account the barometric pressure, tempera ture, humidity, and the possible dust of the air. These factors determine the weight or density of the air.
In general, no accurate velocity pressure readings can be taken of any air current which is affected by changes of directions of the ducts. Accu rate readings can only be taken in a duct which is straight and without turns and elbows for a distance of at least 50 times the diameter of the circular duct, or the greatest dimension of a rectangular duct. Where space conditions do not make such conditions possible, baffling or dividing the duct into numerous smaller ducts by division plates becomes neces sary. Pressure conditions must be determined over the entire area in the drawings of duct traverses as taken from the Standard Code for Testing Centrifugal and Disc Fans of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers and the National Association of Fan Manufacturers.
For determining the velocity of moving air current in ventilating ducts standard tables of velocity pressures will assist in giving quick but approximate results.
Where greater accuracy is desired the density of the air must be determined and the pitot tube readings must be converted into velocities.
The velocities corresponding to the velocity pressure readings should be averaged to obtain, the average velocity for each traverse. Average velocity pressures should be calculated from the average velocities thus determined.
V = 1096.2
'.
V = velocity in feet per minute. Pv -- velocity pressure in inches of water.
,
For dry air at 70 deg. and a barometric pressure of 29.92 in. the
formula becomes:
V = 4005 ^ Py
.
Gages or Manometers
In view of the fact that the velocity pressure exerted by moving air in ordinary duct systems is very slight, frequently going below 1/1000 in. of water, the most accurate gages for measuring these low pressures must be used. For all such measurements gasoline, benzine, or preferably alcohol should be used, with levels for setting the instrument horizontal in both directions. The instruments must be placed upon a firm support to avoid vibration. The tube should be inclined for accurate measure ments on low velocities about 1 to 50, and even 1 to 100 may become necessary where extreme accuracy at low velocities is desired. With care it is possible to read with accuracy very nearly 1/100 in. of water.
(See Report on the use of the Pitot Tube, American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Transactions 1914, Vol. 20, p. 211, and Standard Code for the testing of Centrifugal and Disc Fans, American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Trans actions 1923, -Vol. 29, pp. 407 to 416.)

AIR MOVEMENT DETERMINATIONS
Temperature, humidity and .volume of air supply or exhaust do not appear to be the only determining factors of atmospheric comfort. Air movement is a vital factor in the prevention of stagnant areas and bodily discomfort. Where a determination of air movement is desirable the
Kata thermometer, as developed by Dr. Leonard Hill, of England, may be used. (See Report of Committee on Standard Methods for Examina tion of Air, American Public Health Association, American Journal of
Public Health, Vol. 7, No. 1, January, 1917. The wet Kata-thermometer gives the rate of cooling by radiation, convection and evaporation. The
dry Kata-thermometer gives the rate of cooling by radiation and- con vection. The difference between, the two is the rate of heat loss due solely to evaporation. Air movement is a consideration in the deter
mination of the effective temperature. Air movement may be approximately determined by observation- of
the movement of'a smoke cloud and the use of a stop watch, the smoke cloud being formed by means of an ammonium cloud device, or by a
smoke bomb. Carefully balanced gas balloons may also be used.
The synthetic air chart devised by Dr. E. Vernon Hill, and revised on the basis of investigations by the Society's Research Laboratory has
been frequently used as a means of graphically recording the measure ments of air conditions as found. This will be found fully described, in, Chapter XXXIV. (For original of this chart see-also Ventilation Stand ards and the Synthetic Air Chart, Transactions 1917, Vol. 23, pp. 607 to

judgment of the Engineer. Obviously weightings of these factors as
given for a school room may not do for an industrial plant, garages, etc. As more becomes known about the physiologic effects and the threshold
concentrations of various kinds of dusts, gases, bacteria, and odors, it may be able to more definitely determine the characteristics of such' a
chart as may be more generally useful and acceptable.

PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF VENTILATION*
THE atmospheric condition of space for human occupancy should be based upon the relation and effect of the various factors entering
into the well being of the individual as regards his physiological reaction, feeling of comfort, psychological reaction, and morale. A person's well being may be positively improved, unaffected, or positively harmed by
the condition of the air with which he is surrounded. Whether satis factory . ventilation demands only a condition which is not positively harmful or whether it demands a condition which is positively beneficial
depends upon one's point of view.

To the public health official charged with inspection of sanitary con ditions, in industrial plants it is usually sufficient that the condition of
the air be not a positive menace to the health of workers. To the efficiency
expert and to the engineer in charge of designing equipment for con-

ditioning air for schools and audience halls, it is desirable to produce a condition which is positively beneficial to comfort, health, and morale. To the management of places of amusement it is decidedly advantageous to produce a condition of maximum comfort. This difference in point of view is no doubt responsible for much of the difference of opinion in regard to proper atmospheric conditions.
The factors which may affect a person's health, comfort, or well being are: (1) temperature, (2) humidity, (3) motion of the air, (4) dustiness, (5) bacteria content, (6) odors present, (7) other injurious substances.
The first three factors taken together determine a person's feeling of warmth and influence elimination of body heat. As such, they are the three most important factors in the physiological effects. of the sur rounding atmosphere. Besides their combined effect on heat elimination from the body and one's sense of warmth, moisture content and motion of the air may otherwise affect a person's well being.
Dust, bacteria, and odors may be of less importance when compared wjth the combined effect of temperature, humidity, and air motion but they are nevertheless important factors, and must be given consideration.
HOW TEMPERATURE, HUMIDITY, AND AIR MOTION AFFECT HUMAN COMFORT
A person's feeling of warmth is not due alone to the temperature of the surrounding air as registered by a dry bulb thermometer; neither does it depend solely upon the temperature indicated by a wet bulb ther
mometer. Dry air at a relatively high temperature may feel cooler than air of considerably lower temperature with a high moisture content.
Air motion makes any moderate condition feel cooler.
Human comfort or discomfort, as. regards feeling of warmth, depends
largely upon the body temperature, and, therefore, upon the relation
between the rate of production and dissipation of heat. By the process
of metabolism heat is constantly generated within the body, which heat
must be eliminated from the surface of the body and the respiratory
tract by radiation, convection and evaporation. To maintain a constant body temperature the heat loss must equal the heat produced. It is,
therefore, apparent that any interference with the elimination of heat
from the body is accompanied by a rise in temperature and a feeling of ,
discomfort.
There are three principal factors affecting loss of body heat: (1) temperature, (2) humidity, (3) air motion.
As the temperature of the air and surrounding objects rises, the loss of heat by convection and radiation decreases. When the air temperature
reaches that of the body, the loss by radiation and convection ceases. Finally as the air temperature exceeds that of the body, heat is trans ferred from the air to the body.
. As the temperature of the air rises and heat loss by radiation and con
vection decreases, the body, endeavors to maintain temperature equi
librium by making available more perspiration and a resulting greater
heat loss by evaporation.
.
From the above, it is concluded that there must necessarily exist certain
367

combinations of temperatures and humidities, which produce the same total body heat loss by radiation, convection, and evaporation and there fore the same feeling of comfort or discomfort. Lines passing through such air conditions plotted as a psychrometric chart may be called equal

comfort lines. The fact is further substantiated by the general experience of heating engineers in observing that the lower the humidity the higher the dry bulb temperature required for the same degree of comfort.

lines. Effective temperature is given by a series of oblique but not parallel lines which approach being parallel to the wet bulb lines at high tempera tures and humidities, and to the dry bulb lines at low temperatures. The numerical values of the wet bulb and effective temperature lines are given by the dry bulb temperatures at their intersection with the saturation curve.
. Dry bulb temperature is the temperature of the air as determined by an ordinary dry bulb mercury thermometer.
' Wet bulb temperature is the temperature as determined by a similar thermometer, except with its bulb encased in a fine mesh fabric bag moistened with clean water and whirled through the air until the tem perature depression due to the cooling effect of evaporation from the moistened bag reaches equilibrium.
The conditions of comfort as shown by these charts are primarily for winter time conditions in relatively cold climates, and what is hereinafter said relative to these charts pertains to such conditions. The conditions of indoor comfort corresponding to summer time conditions or to conditions in the warmer climates are somewhat different. For data pertaining to this subject see Inside Temperatures, Chapter I, pp. 4.
. Wet bulb temperature corresponds to that which a thoroughly wet body will attain if the air passes over it.for a sufficient length of time and with a high enough velocity. A person's body is not thoroughly wet and hence does not react entirely in accordance with either the dry or the wet bulb temperature. At high temperatures when the body is moist with perspiration, it reacts more nearly in accordance with wet bulb tem perature while at low temperatures when the body is comparatively dry it reacts more nearly in accordance with the dry bulb temperature.
Effective temperature is an experimentally determined scale which unlike the dry bulb and wet bulb scales is a.true measure or index of a person's feeling of warmth in all combinations of temperature, humidity, and air motion. In other words, for any one given effective temperature a person will feel the same degree of warmth or coldness regardless of the dry bulb temperature, wet bulb temperature and velocity of the air, re quired to produce that particular effective temperature.
The psychrometric charts for moving air, Figs. 2, 3 and 4 differ from the chart for still air (Fig. 1) only in that the effective temperature lines for any particular degree do not intersect the dry bulb, wet. bulb or dew-point temperature lines at the same degree on the saturation or 100 per cent relative humidity curve but are removed to the right so that the effective temperature for any dry and wet bulb temperature is lower for moving air than it is for still air. This difference between the effective temperature for still air and for moving air, of any velocity, is the cooling resulting from that velocity. The difference between the dry or wet bulb temperature and the effective temperature at saturation also gives the cooling produced by the velocity for that condition.
The psychrometric chart (Fig. 5) gives the effective temperature lines
for still air and for three velocities ranging from 150 to 500 ft. per minute
on the same chart. It is of value in giving at a glance the relative cooling
effect of different velocities.

The exact effective temperature giving maximum comfort for persons working at various rates have not yet been determined by the Research Laboratory but from the best data available, they are as follows: At rest, 64 deg.; Light work, 62 deg.; Hard work, 60 deg.

HEAT DISSIPATED TO THE ATMOSPHERE FROM THE HUMAN BODY
The heat dissipated from the human body is a factor which must be taken into consideration in conditioning air in audience halls. Research at the Laboratory of the American Society of Heating and Ventilat
ing Engineers4 shows that the total heat dissipated from the body of an individual does not vary greatly over the temperature range usually met with in air conditioning and is a function of Effective Temperature. The relative proportion of this total heat loss dissipated as latent heat
(heat of evaporation of perspiration) and sensible heat (heat loss by
radiation and convection) does, however, vary greatly over this tempera
ture range and is for all practical purposes a function of dry bulb tem
perature. The curve, Fig. 6, gives the total heat loss in B.t.u. per hour
for an average' person for different effective temperatures. The per
centages of the total heat loss dissipated as latent and sensible heat are
plotted against dry bulb temperature in Fig. 7.
'
An atmospheric condition resulting in sensible perspiration is to be avoided for good air conditions. Table 2 gives the approximate effective temperature at which perspiration is noticeable in different degrees by most individuals for 95 per cent and 20 per cent relative humidity.
(A) How much sensible heat, how much latent heat, and how many pounds of water vapor will be added to the atmosphere of an auditorium per hour by an audience of 1000 adults, when the dry and wet bulb temperatures are 75 and 63,5 deg. fahr. re spectively.
(5) If the dry and wet bulb temperatures of the auditorium were 85 deg. and 63 deg. respectively, how much heat and moisture would be dissipated to the atmosphere?
(C) From Fig. 1 find the effective temperature of the atmospheric condition to be 70.3 deg. and from the curve, Fig. 6 find the total heat loss for this effective temperature to be 403 B.t.u. per hour for an average person. This curve Fig. 7 shows the sensible and latent heat loss at 75 deg. dry bulb to be 69.0 per cent and 31.0 per cent respectively. The sensible heat added per hour by the audience is 0.69 X 403 X 1000 = 278,070 B.t.u. The latent heat added per hour is 0.31 X 403 X 1000 = 124,930 B.t.u. The weight of water vapor added to the atmosphere per hour is given by the latent heat loss divided
by the latent heat of evaporation at body temperature or

The above examples demonstrate that while the effective temperature and hence the feeling of warmth and rate of total heat loss does not differ greatly in the two cases the relative proportion of sensible and latent heat loss is reversed. In order to maintain the air conditions stipulated the air conditioning equipment must remove 54.1. per cent more sensible heat in (a4) than in (5); and 76.5 per cent more latent heat or water vapor in (B) than in {A). In 04) 69 per cent of the total heat loss is sensible while in (B) qnly 45 per cent of the total loss is sensible.
CONDITIONING AIR FOR HUMAN COMFORT
There are four fundamental ways of producing effective cooling: (1) The dry bulb temperature may be lowered by direct cooling or removal of heat. (2) The moisture content of the air may be reduced. (3) Air motion may produce effective cooling except for extremely severe con ditions. (4) Evaporation of water without addition or subtraction of heat is accompanied by an increase in moisture content and a fall in dry bulb temperature along the wet bulb line resulting in effective cooling.
Take as an example a condition of 92 deg. dry bulb and 40 per cent relative humidity having a wet bulb temperature of 72.8 deg. and effec tive temperature of 81.T deg. This condition can be made equivalent to 78 deg. effective temperature or it can be made to feel 3.1 effective deg. cooler by any one of the four fundamental changes mentioned.
(1) By the removal of heat the dry bulb may be made to fall to 85.5 deg. (see Fig. 1) along the "90 grain moisture per pound of dry air" or 64.2 deg. dew-point line when
the effective temperature will be 78 deg.
(2) Without removal of sensible heat or lowering of the dry bulb, the moisture content may be reduced from 90 to 44 grains per pound of dry air, when the effective
temperature will be 78 deg.
(3) A 500 ft. velocity (see Fig. 4) will change the still air condition of 81.1 deg. effective temperature to 78 deg. Effective Temperature or will give 3.1 deg. Effective
Temperature cooling- .
.
(4) Evaporation of water at room temperature without addition or.removal of heat will cause the point on the chart, Fig. 1, indicated by our condition, to move along the wet bulb line to the left thereby lowering the dry bulb temperature and increasing the moisture content. The wet bulb temperature will remain the same but the effective temperature will be lowered. By adding 14 grains of moisture without ;heat, the dry bulb will fall to 83.8 deg. and the effective temperature will fall to 78 deg.
The best method of producing effective cooling to be employed in any particular case will depend upon accompanying circumstances and should be determined by a competent engineer. Generally, the removal of heat or water vapor or both, by direct cooling or dehumidifying is most effective. Effective cooling by air motion or evaporation of water is relatively much less expensive, but these methods of cooling are limited to certain conditions of temperature and humidity. Cooling by evapora tion of water is effective when the air is dry or when there is considerable difference between the wet and dry bulb temperature. Cooling by air motion is most effective at low temperatures. When the effective tem perature approaches that of the body little or no cooling results and for certain higher temperatures air motion will make an uncomfortable con dition even less bearable.

ture improvement. A 300 ft. air velocity with this new wet and dry bulb will give an effective temperature of 75.7 deg. or a total improvement of
10.0 deg. For cooling produced by velocities other than those given in Figs. 2,

the November 1926 Journal.

Example 4--Given a condition having dry and wet bulb temperature of 90 and 85 deg. respectively, how much cooler will this condition feel if 300 ft. air velocity is supplied instead of still air?
Answer.--From Fig. 1 it will be found that this condition in still air has an effective temperature of 86.6 deg., while if the air has 300 ft. velocity it will be found from Fig. 3 that it will have an effective temperature of 83.8 deg. Cooling of 2.8 deg. will be pro duced by the 300 ft. air velocity.
There are many applications for these data. In warm weather it is especially desirable to have greater comfort in school rooms, theaters,

The second condition is given by the intersection of 80 deg. dry bulb and 60 deg. wet bulb and is 71.7 deg. effective temperature. It is therefore 0.2 deg. effective temperature cooler
than the first condition. Example 2.--Given 76 deg. dry bulb and 61 deg. wet bulb how many degrees difference
between this condition and the comfort line or 64 deg. effective temperature?
Answer.--The effective temperature of this condition is given by the intersection of
the 76 deg. dry bulb and 61 deg. wet bulb lines and is 70 deg. effective temperature or
6 deg. effective temperature warmer than the comfort line.

respectively, what air velocity will be necessary to make this condition ideally com
fortable, that is, 64 deg. effective temperature?
; ' ::
Answer.--From Fig. 1 for still air it will be seen that this condition has an effective temperature of 68.1 deg. in still air, while an air velocity of 300 ft. (see Fig. 3) gives an effective temperature of 64.7 deg. A velocity of something more than 300 ft. per minute

auditoriums, also factories, foundries, iron, steel and glass works, mines and other places where workers are subjected to extreme temperature conditions. Maintaining comfortable conditions indoors in summer when the thermometer registers about 95 deg. is a more complicated problem than maintaining the proper condition in winter.
Effective cooling, using cold water or refrigeration, is frequently
resorted to in theaters and other public buildings and this practice may be expected to increase.
HOW RELATIVE HUMIDITY AFFECTS HUMAN COMFORT
Relative humidity has a bearing on the well being of man besides having an effect in determining his feeling of warmth. While its effect on health and comfort has never been thoroughly investigated, and while authorities do not agree as to reasons why a high or a low humidity is
377
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
harmful, there is general agreement that very high or very low humidities indoors are to be avoided. It is generally accepted that for good ventilation
the relative humidity should not be below 30 per cent or above 60 per cent. Maintaining proper humidity indoors is particularly a problem in cold
weather. The reason for this can easily be seen when one considers that most rooms have from 1 to 2 air changes per hour due to infiltration (See Chapter I, p. 48-60 of The Guide) or, that air circulates freely
between the outside and inside of most buildings.

The psychrometric chart, Fig. 1, shows that one pound of dry air at 30 deg. fahr. can have a maximum of only 24 grains of moisture even if
the relative humidity is 100 per cent. If this air upon coming indoors is
heated to 70 deg. fahr. without addition of moisture the moisture content will still be the same but the relative humidity will fall to 23 per cent. Likewise an outside temperature of zero with 100 per cent relative hu midity will give 5.2 per cent relative humidity inside while 20 deg. beiow
zero outside will give 1.7 per cent inside. 70 deg. air with relative hu midity of 20 per cent or lower is noticeably dry or has a great affinity for moisture and takes it rapidly from any available source, resulting in
raising of dust, damage to glued furniture, and a parched.or irritated con dition of the mucous membrane of the outer portions of the respiratory tract. Contrary to common belief, however, the total moisture removed from the entire respiratory tract through breathing a given mass of . air is practically the same indoors with 70 deg. and 5.2 per cent relative humidity as it is out-of-doors with zero and 100 per cent relative
humidity.
.
There is likewise difference of opinion concerning the relation of high
relative humidity to health and comfort. A high humidity indoors is
objectionable due to precipitation on windows and other cold surfaces and
a general tendency for a damp unsanitary condition to develop.

Fan (with or without recirculation)
In addition to these, there is also a system employing fan supply with
out exhaust fans or gravity exhaust duct work, the exhaust depending
entirely on natural leakage around doors and windows and through open
entrance doors. This system has seen considerable use in connection, with
, theatres and auditoriums where air cooling and refrigeration is employed
and where a large percentage of the air-is recirculated. A more modern
adaptation of this type of system for theatres includes a system of exhaust
recirculating ducts extending back to the inlet of the supply apparatus,
with an exhaust relief branch duct leading to the outside through which
most of the discharged air is forced. The air forced outward by interior
excess air pressure is equivalent in volume to the outside air taken in by
the supply apparatus. '
The movement of air in natural ventilation. systems is produced by
the difference in. density , between that of the air in building and that of
the outside air, coupled with the action of the outside air movements on
ventilators, openings and the building itself. The greater the difference
in temperature between the two columns of air, other conditions being
equal, the more rapid the air movement.
'
.
Outside air movements may either augment or retard the air move
ments due to temperature difference, depending upon the velocity and direction of the outside currents, the location and. character of openings
and the character of the building. (See Chapter XXXlII, Natural
Ventilation.)
.
With mechanical systems the circulation of air is maintained positively and uniformly regardless of outside air conditions and when properly designed and operated they will also furnish any desired temperature or humidity under automatic control.
Five methods of fan application in heating and ventilating are common, as follows:

3. hFeaant.system for supplying air for ventilation and a portion of the heating, with direct radiation for supplying the remainder of the heating.
4. Fan system for supplying entire heating (no ventilation supplied).
5. Fan system for supplying ventilation only.
Typical installations of the first type of system will be found in churches, theatres, auditoriums and other places of assembly requiring a relatively
large amount of ventilation and little heating. The second type of system is usually provided in hotels and office buildings where only certain rooms need ventilation. Experience has shown that the third type is economical for schools, manufacturing plants doing special work, hotels and other places where a properly controlled air volume is essential. The fourth
type of system is especially adapted to industrial plants and shops to convey heat to the points desired and to create an effective air motion
and uniform temperature with minimum heat loss. Unit heaters are an adaptation of this system. When the fan is required to do both heating and ventilating it is necessary to keep it in operation. Great success has been reported in school work with systems of this kind, particularly be
cause of flexibility, easy temperature and humidity control, and economy of operation.1 The fifth type of system is used in connection with the
ventilation of kitchens, restaurants* dining rooms, some places of assem
blage and in industrial plants where exhaust or fresh air dilution systems are employed for the removal of heat, vitiated air or other objectionable
atmospheres. The Fan System for Heating and Ventilating consists of a combination
of a fan operating in conjunction with a blast heater, with or without a system of air distributing ducts. An air washer or humidifier may be
added when required without otherwise changing the type of system. When used for ventilating purposes, the fan will be required to supply
whatever amount of air is specified to meet the ventilation requirements. The system may be arranged so that the fan will either blow or draw the air through the heaters. Each arrangement possesses its own peculiar
advantages, but the selection depends largely upon the individual require
ments of the installation. The draw-through apparatus is usually employed in factory buildings
on account of its compactness as well as on account of the advantage gained by connecting directly to the piping system. In this case the temperature of the air delivered will be the same for all parts of the
building. The blow-through apparatus is used in public buildings, or
wherever different air temperatures and independent air temperature regulation are required for different rooms of the building. The use of a by-pass around the heating coils permits the mixture of hot and cold air in any desired proportions, by the use of a mixing damper at the point where the two ducts, one from the heater, and one from the by-pass, join to form one duct leading to the room. In the case of public buildings, the

fan frequently blows the warm air into a space termed a plenum chamber,
from which the air ducts radiate to the various rooms of the building;
this arrangement is sometimes called the plenum system of heating and
ventilating.
.
Air supply systems may be distinguished as upward and downward
systems; the former being sometimes used in such buildings as theatres and auditoriums where people are associated closely. Air is supplied near
the floor and exhausted through grilles in or near the ceiling.
The downward plan is used in schoolrooms, hospitals, and other public
buildings, air being introduced about 8 ft. above the floor and drawn out near the floor. This system is frequently used in theatres where the air
is introduced downward from the ceiling and removed from under the
seats. The selection of either system depends upon conditions confronting
the engineer.
'
The amount of heat to be supplied is governed by the losses from trans mission plus those from infiltration, with proper allowances for heat supplied by persons, lights, mechanical apparatus," or processes. Tem
peratures usually specified for various types of buildings are to be found in Table 1, Chapter I.
The amount of air to be supplied depends largely upon the type of
service required, the amount of heat to be supplied or removed, the per fection of ventilation demanded, etc.
The total quantity of air to be circulated in an indirect heating system, either mechanical or gravity type, is demonstrated in the seven cases set forth in the Fig. 1, Cases 1 to 6, page 383 as follows:
H = heat loss of room or building as determined by formulae and data given under Chapter I (B.t.u. per hour).

The amount of heating surface shail then be multiplied by the condensation per square foot to obtain the total condensation in pounds of steam per hour.

Case 4--When all of the air circulated is drawn from the outside and passed through
a tempering coil, air washer or humidifier and reheater.

The temperature of the air t, entering the reheater will have the same dew-point tem
perature as the air in the room or building to which the air is delivered, having tempera ture t and relative humidity as specified. If the relative humidity is not specified it shall
be assumed as 35 per cent. If.the room temperature is not specified it shall be assumed
as 70 deg. fahr.
'
..
A relative humidity of 35 per cent for a room temperature of 70 deg. has been selected
because this is the highest percentage of moisture which the air can hold without pro
ducing dripping on single-thickness windows in cold weather.

If it is desired to maintain a room temperature of 70 deg. with 35 per cent relative
humidity from an outside temperature of zero and with simply an air washer without
any water heater in connection, the tempering coil must be of sufficient capacity to
heat the entering air from the outside temperature to 88 deg. dry bulb temperature and
52 deg. wet bulb temperature, and this will be represented by to in the diagram.. In this
case the difference is 36 deg. between the wet bulb temperature and the dry bulb tem
perature and assuming the washer to be 67 per cent efficient, moisture will be evaporated
into the air in sufficient quantity to bring the temperature down to 24 deg. which is
67 per cent of 36 deg. Subtracting 24 deg. drop in temperature through the air washer
from 88 deg. dry bulb temperature of the air entering the air washer, gives 64 deg. as
the final temperature of the air leaving the air washer, the wet bulb temperature remain
ing at 52 deg. The reheater will heat the air to any temperature necessary to take care
of the heat losses since room heating is desired.
.
The dew-point temperature of the air leaving the air washer and in the room itself
will be 41 deg.
382
Chapter XXIV-Svstkms of Ventilation
Case s 383
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
Using the same illustration and assuming that a humidifying air washer is used with a
water heater, the tempering coil will simply have one stack, section or tube row deep to raise the air temperature to about 35 deg. from zero outside temperature. The hot water sprays in the air washer will saturate this air at a temperature of 41 deg. and the reheater will simply raise this temperature to any point required to maintain a room
temperature of 70 deg. and a relative humidity of 35 per cent. The amount of heat to be furnished by the water heater in connection with the
humidifying air washer is made up of the sum of two factors--First: to heat the specified
air volume from the temperature leaving the tempering coil to the saturated air tem perature leaving the washer, and Second: to evaporate sufficient moisture into this
air to saturate it at the temperature required.
.
If only 23 per cent relative humidity is desired in the room in connection with 70 deg.
dry bulb temperature, the temperature entering the air washer, without water heater
will be 64 deg. dry bulb, and the temperature leaving the air washer will be 48 deg.
dry bulb, which is a drop of 16 deg; through the washer or 67 per cent of 23J4 deg.
difference between 64 deg. dry bulb and the corresponding 40} deg. wet bulb temper
ature.
..
The illustration in connection with Case 4 indicates that this arrangement is used
entirely for heating the room by the fan system. In many cases the heat losses in a
room or building are taken care of entirely by direct radiation, and in such, cases the
final temperature of the air leaving the heater will probably be in the neighborhood
of 80 deg. In such a case the same arrangements of tempering coils and reheaters will
be used. The arrangement shown in the diagram contemplates the same air tempera ture being delivered to all rooms on this system, and will not be applicable to the heating
of several rooms where individual control of each room is desired.
Case 5--When a portion {Mo) of the air circulated is drawn from the outside and the remaining Mr recirculated air, the air drawn from the outside is passed through a tempering coil and the mixture of air, from the outside and recirculated air, being passed
through an air washer or humidifier and a reheater. Similar conditions will apply to Case 5 as have been outlined for Case 4 except
that a percentage of recirculated air at a different dry and wet bulb temperature and a different percentage of relative humidity will be mixed with the fresh air after it has
been warmed by the tempering coil. In Case 5, (Mo) is known from the ventilation requirements as specified, and the
amount of air permitted to be recirculated is, therefore:
H Mr = 0.24 (ty~t)
- Mo-
..(7)
Cose 6 (a, b, c)--When all of the air circulated is drawn from the outside, passed through a tempering coil and air washer or humidifier, a portion of the tempered and conditioned air passed through an indirect heater or reheater and a portion of the tempered and conditioned air by-passed around the reheater and the mixture passed
into the room or building for heating and ventilating. The weight of air to be circulated per hour equals (Mo) as determined by the ventila
tion requirements. The dry bulb temperature of the mixture of tempered and reheated air. entering the room or building is to be ascertained by the following formulae:
Mo X 0.24 (ty-t) = H...
(8)
H + 0.24 Mot ty~ 0.24 Mo '
(9).
This case illustrates the arrangement of apparatus when the heating of several rooms is required with individual control of temperature for each room. The arrangement of
apparatus, including tempering coil, air washer or humidifier, retempering coil and
reheater coil, will be the same as has been outlined in Case 4. The air leaving the reheater and the air by-passed around the reheater, although
having different dry bulb temperatures, will have the same dew-point temperature as the air (t) in the room or building to which the air is delivered and with relative humidity as specified: if no relative humidity is specified it can be assumed as 35 per cent. If no room temperature is specified it should be assumed as 70 deg. The relative weights
384
Chapter XXIV--SVstems of Ventilation
of air passed through the reheater and by-passed around the reheater shall be ascertained
by the following method:
.
X = parts of reheated air in mixture. (1 -- X) = parts of tempered air in mixture.
ty ~ mean dry bulb temperature of the mixture entering room or building. lx -- loss of temperature in the duct system. /, = mean dry bulb temperature of the air entering reheater and by-pass. tj = mean temperature of the air leaving the reheater.
(X) (t, + 460) + (1--X) (/, + 460) = (lm + 460)............................................................(10)
tm -- mean temperature of air entering the duct system = (fy + tx).
SOLVE: for X. Then Mh = X
.
Mh is the weight of air in pounds per hour to be passed through the reheater. The
temperature (ty) will ordinarily be different for each room of the building. The total weight of air passed through the reheater will be the; sum of the requirements for all the rooms.
Case 7--Indirect system for warming the air drawn in from the outside for ventilating purposes only. (When an indirect system is employed to warm the air drawn into the system from the outside for ventilating purposes only, the heat loss is provided for by direct radiation or by some other means).
The weight of air to be circulated per hour is (Mo) as may be determined from the specified ventilation requirement Mh = M -- Mo. The temperature of the air delivered to the room (ty) shall be assumed 5 deg. higher than room temperature (I) specified.
a. If no air-conditioning apparatus is to be employed the arrangement is similar to Case 2 where li -- to and ty = t + 5.
b. If air-conditioning apparatus is to be employed the arrangement is similar to
Case 4; Mh = M = Mo.
,
Loss of Temperature in Duct Systems (tx):
a. When the indirect heater and duct system, are located in the enclosure to
which the air is to be delivered, it may be assumed that there is no loss of
temperature between the indirect heater and the point or points of discharge
. into the enclosure, tx -- 0.
;
b. For gravity indirect heating, a loss in air temperature of 5 deg. for the first
floor, 8 deg. for the second floor, and 10 deg. for the third floor between the indirect radiator and room register can be assumed.
c. For ducts run underground an allowance must be made based on the estimated heat loss of the duct, assuming an average temperature of the ground of 55 deg. fahr.
d. For ducts run in outside walls to the second floor and above, a loss of not less than 10 deg. shall be used in the calculations.
When the heating and ventilation requirements have been found the size of the heater and fan are calculated for a given friction,- temperature
range, pressure loss in: ducts, etc. Pressure losses build up rapidly as velocities are increased and generally vary approximately as the square
of the velocity. The allowable pressure loss through the heater should in
general not exceed 50 per cent of the total static pressure of the system; In public building practice allowable pressure loss through tempering
coils and reheaters should be under in. of water and when an air washer is used the friction through the tempering coil and reheater should
not exceed 40 per cent of the total resistance as a rule.
'i
For data on design and construction of ventilating duct systems, see
Chapter XXVIII.
. ^.
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
' Factory work permits greater friction allowance for the heaters where duct runs are comparatively short and the resistance of the heater is a
large part of the entire pressure loss in the system. The fan can be selected when the following facts are knowh:
1. Quantity of air required in cubic feet per minute. 2. Static pressure of system (ducts, heaters, air washers, filters, entrance connections,
etc.). For data on selection of fans, see Chapter XXVI.
The quantity, velocity and pressure of air delivered by the fan should be determined by the A. S. H. & V. E. Standard Code for Testing Cen trifugal and Disc Fans (See Transactions, 1923, Vol. 29, p. 407).
. . A fan installation rightly designed and operated will be quiet and efficient, but every precaution should be taken to prevent vibration or
sound transmission to the rooms.
'
. It is usually more effective to float the entire mechanical apparatus on cork, including its foundations, than to attempt to isolate each separate apparatus. There are several systems for the sound-proofing of machinery available, and contracts may be made covering guaranteed and assured
results. For data on ventilation requirements for different kinds of buildings

UNIT SYSTEMS2
Unit systems consist of an individual unit incorporating all the apparatus necessary for providing, directing and controlling the necessary volume of air heated to the proper temperature for the purpose. Two types are in common use, one for public building work and the other for factory and industrial installations.
All unit heating and ventilating devices consist essentially of small fans connected closely with heat radiating surfaces. Steam or hot water usually is used for heating, and electric motors usually are used for power.
Public Building Work
A unit heating and ventilating machine intended for public building work consists usually of a small rectangular steel cabinet, enclosing the following essential parts:--
1. A fresh air inlet. 2. An air filter.
3. A motor and fan assembly. 4. A radiator or heating element. 5. A cold air or by-pass chamber. 0. Mixing chamber.
7. Air discharge outlet.
8. Fresh air and recirculating control
damper.
.
9. A by-pass or temperature control
damper.
.
Note.--Both the recirculating control damper and the by-pass damper can be manually operated,or the recirculating control damper may be pneumatically controlled from some remote point. The by-pass or temperature control damper can be automatically operated on room temperature by means of ther
mostatic motor in connection with the use of any pneumatic automatic temperature control system. (See also Chapter XVI.)
When the fresh air inlet damper is open the fresh air is drawn im
mediately from out of doors, having the dust and dirt removed by means of the air filters. From this point the air is driven by means of the motor
, *Data on Unit Systems contributed by H. B. Hedges. New York, N. Y.; G. E. Otis, Moline, III., and
A. J. Nesbitt, Philadelphia, Pa.

and fan assembly and forced up through the machine, using either polyphase, alternating current or direct current motor.
All of the. air may be driven through the radiator to be heated and thence to the room, orall of the air may be driven through the cold air or by-pass chamber and thence to the room, or part of the air may be driven through the radiator and part through the cold air chamber in any desired proportion, depending upon the.position of the by-pass damper..
The closing of the fresh air damper simultaneously opens the recirculat ing grille at the floor line, so that there is a free path for the air to circulate by gravity through the radiator. Thus, when the motor is not operating and the fresh air damper is closed, the radiator of the unit becomes an enclosed direct radiator, functioning in the same manner, as any other enclosed direct radiator. By starting the motor during heating-up period in the morning, the air may be drawn from the room at the floor line,' heated, discharged, recirculated, reheated and redischarged, this process . Continuing until the room has reached the desired temperature, thus effecting a tremendous saving in time and fuel in preparation of the room for occupancy.
With this system of ventilation, the air outlets for the room serve strictly in the capacity of vents to permit of displacement .and they should be small, with as little exhausting effect as possible. Under such conditions their location is unimportant further than that they be placed at or very near the floor. In the typical layout they are usually placed in the wall opposite the fan unit.
In school work where it is desired to circulate ajr through adjoining wardrobes, room outlets should be in low panels of doors or near floor in partitions. Wardrobe outlets may be either at 'floor or ceiling. The latter arrangement is usually preferable from a purely ventilation standpoint but the former provides a better heating effect. By such a plan direct radiation may usually be omitted from such rooms. When half doors or no doors are used between classrooms and wardrobes, outlets from the latter must be at the floor.
With the mechanical unit ventilation system exhaust fans or aspirating coils in vent flues are neither necessary nor desirable, it being the idea to force the air out of the rooms under back pressure. .Where the outlets are properly proportioned this has an inflation effect that retards infiltra tion and assists in diffusion. One vent for each machine is.sufficient and both the grille and flue should have a net free area of about 18 sq. in. for each 100 cu. ft. of air delivered per minute by the ventilator.
In order to carry out the principle of diffusion and get proper results
from the unit system of ventilation, consideration must be given to the
number, size, location and general application of the mechanical venti
lators. With a correctly designed system and proper equipment, good
diffusion will be effected if the frequency of air change in the room;
ventilated is equivalent to five or more volumes per hour but the extent
to which the desirable effect of air motion is present will be governed
both by the frequency of air change, and the ceiling height. , ;
;
On the same principle that underlies the necessary distribution of direct radiation there is a limit to the amount of air which can be dis tributed from a single point in ventilation work if good results are to be
390
XXIVChapter
--Systems of Ventilation
. expected. Practical experiments seem to indicate that this limit is about
1500 cu. ft. per minute with this type of apparatus. In a practical way
this determines the number of unit machines to be used in a given case.
Where the very best results are desired it is recommended that the
capacity of any single machine be limited to 100 cu. ft. per minute per
foot of ceiling height.
`
Mechanical unit ventilators should be located centrally on the outside
wall of the room which they serve. Corner locations are liable to result
in inefficient and unbalanced distribution. In fact, under adverse con
ditions, drafts may result from such a location.
.
Unit ventilators may be recessed but they should never be enclosed or concealed. Not only are enclosures liable to affect the perfection of diffusion, but from a practical standpoint they interfere with proper care and attention by rendering the machine inaccessible. Moreover, there is a certain psychological value to an exposed machine. The occupants quickly learn its purpose and operation with the result that they appredate its value and see that it is operated and properly cared for.
No single mechanical unit ventilator should be made to serve more than one room by the extension of ducts from the outlet, since this is contrary to all the basic principles of the system. Adjacent rooms, if not sufficient in size and importance to be equipped with individual ventilating systems probably do not require any ventilation.
Where the total heat required is in excess of the rated capacity of the unit, the unit must be supplemented by direct radiation. Otherwise, the unit can be used for both heating and ventilating without direct radiation.
No special treatment of vent flues is required by this system, the vitiated air being discharged from the building in the same manner, as all other mechanical systems. It has been found that the best results have been obtained where the cross sectional area of the vent flue does not exceed 20 sq. in. per 100 cu. ft. of air per minute.
Industrial Service
.
Unit heaters for industrial work consist of a heating element over
which air is forced or drawn by means of a power driven fan which also
distributes this heated air to the space to be heated. The area that can
be served by one unit varies according to the type of unit and the location
of the unit within the building.
.
Industrial units are available in capacities from that of the smallest
disc or propeller, type fan up to that of gangs of centrifugal fans, and in
ranges, expressed in heating output, from perhaps one hundred square feet
of radiation up to several thousand square feet of radiation.
.
They may be placed on the floor, or may be suspended from overhead construction, and may be heated by steam or water-or other fluid, or may be direct fired, with coal, oil or gas.
There has been a remarkable recent expansion in the demand and in the production of all sorts of industrial heaters, and their use no longer is confined, by any means, to industrial buildings alone.
The tendency is apparent to return after some digression, toward a location for the units as near the floor as is practicable, especially with
391
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929 suction ducts or high velocity outlets arranged to move the cold heavy stratum of air which is likely otherwise to lie close to floors.
The service of industrial unit heaters is essentially that of heating, and recirculation is usual, with dependence on windows and doors for ven tilation. Since the fans can be operated without heating the radiators there is some advantage from them in warm weather.
Due to the very high heat transmission rates from radiators over which air is driven at high speed by fans, industrial unit heaters usually effect material space economies.
Industrial units are now being employed for washing, humidifying, dehumidifying and otherwise conditioning air for manufacturing pro cesses.

CHAPTER XXV
AIR CONDITIONING AND COOLING
Air Supply, Relative Humidity, Air Cooling, Refrigeration, Humidifying, Dehumidifying, Automatic Controlling Devices, Cleaning Units.
TEMPERATURE and humidity of surrounding air is an important factor influencing comfort and efficiency. While temperature and humidity affects human comfort, it also has an important bearing in the industrial fields where hundreds of manufacturing processes are dependent for their success upon some definite atmospheric conditions to be main tained.
Climatic conditions, of course, vary with geographical locations. A study of temperature and humidity variations in different localities tends to show that such places having an average wet bulb temperature in the neighborhood of 56 deg. fahr. with corresponding dry bulb temperatures
to give an effective comfort temperature of from 62 to 69 deg. are favored with best health conditions. (See Chapter XXIII, page 366).
This chart indicates that maximum comfort is produced when tem perature and humidity conditions are approximately such as to give a 64 deg. effective temperature. One condition in combination is 70 deg. dry bulb, 57 deg. wet bulb and 45 per cent relative humidity, which corresponds to a dew-point of 48 deg. and 3.59 grains of moisture per cu. ft.
See Chapter XXIII Figs. 2, 3, 4 and 5 for definite conclusions regarding
the relation between temperature, humidity and air motion to produce
physical comfort.
Air conditioning is the science of mechanically controlling: (1) tem perature, (2) humidity, (3) purity and (4) the movement of air within buildings and other enclosures, thereby controlling the effects of such air. upon the people and materials exposed to it.
Conditioning for industrial processes has become an exact science with results measurable in dollars and cents, in a more perfect product, in increased production, in elimination of waste or in some equally important factor. Varying degrees of moisture are required in manufacturing pro cesses and the nature of the product will indicate whether a high or low relative humidity is to be maintained. Heating as well as cooling must be considered in air conditioning work such as that of textile mills, printing plants, bakeries, candy kitchens, laundries, etc., all presenting definite problems. For example, in spinning rooms 75 deg. fahr. and 65 per cent humidity have been found best for the operations; in match factories 68 deg. dry bulb and 55 deg. wet bulb permit continuous opera tion and reduce fire hazards; in candy dipping rooms 66 deg. dry bulb

and 50 per cent relative humidity give a high quality product. In some cases, humidity must be supplied, in others, dehumidifying is necessary.
In some cases such as with textile manufacture, the condition of relative humidities of the surrounding air must be sufficiently high to.provide for moisture absorption by the materials in process. In other cases the materials in process require air conditioning that will be conducive to a reduction in weight of materials by evaporation. For this reason, it is quite impractical here to give the exact temperature and humidity con ditions best suited for the infinite numbers of -materials or varying processes. The best suited conditions are quite generally known and understood by those who have studied the effects of moisture conditions in relation to any particular process or product.
' Air has certain definite properties and obeys certain well known laws. Therefore, to properly handle problems of air conditioning and cooling, the relation between the wet and dry bulb temperatures, relative hu midity and the dew-point should . be thoroughly understood:
Dew-point is the temperature of the air at which saturation.occurs for a given amount of water vapor. With air at the dew-point the wet a.nd dry bulb temperatures are the same. At ordinary temperatures, the absorption of 1 grain of moisture-per cu. ft. reduces the dry bulb tem perature 8M deg, ' Relative humidity of air is the weight of moisture actually contained

Chapter XXV--Air Conditioning and Cooling
by the air at a given temperature expressed in per cent of the amount of air it would hold if it were saturated at the same temperature.
The maximum moisture which the air can hold at various temperatures
is given by the saturation, or 100 per cent relative humidity curve of the
psychrometric chart. Relative humidities between 0 and 100 per cent of
saturation are shown by a series of oblique curved lines similar to the
saturation curve.
.
The wet bulb temperatures are given by a series of nearly parallel,
oblique lines and the numerical values of these wet bulb temperatures are
given by the dry bulb temperatures at their intersection with the satura-.
tion curve.
-
Example.--If air is at a temperature of 70 deg. and its moisture content' is '4 grains per cubic foot the relative humidity is approximately 50 per cent, since 4 grains of moisture per cubic foot is very nearly 50 per cent of 7.98 grains, the maximum moisture carrying capacity of the air at 70 deg.
Therefore, to provide a final room condition of 70 deg. temperature and 50 per cent relative humidity the air should first be saturated at a tem perature corresponding to 4 grains of moisture per cubic foot which has already been referred to as a dew-point of 50 deg.
This condition is easily obtained during the heating season, since; during this time of the year steam may be used for varying the spray water temperature through which the air being conditioned is passed, and thus the moisture carrying capacity of the air is raised to the desired point. The problem, however, is reversed in summer. Instead of humidifying, or increasing the moisture content of the air, it must be. reduced from some higher level down to a 50 deg. dew-point.
Humidifying is the process of adding moisture to air.
Dehumidifying is the process of removing moisture from the air.
It may be necessary for the example cited, to cool below. 50 deg. depending upon infiltration, air liquidage, as well as liberation of moisture from material to the air in the room which is desired.
The necessary dew-point correction value to be considered will, of.
course, vary with building or room construction. It is also dependent
upon dry bulb temperature as well as moisture content differences
between- inside and outside air conditions. Compensation in dew-point..
temperature correction should also be considered from a standpoint of
moisture liberated by occupants of the room as well as moisture given off
by material in process of manufacture.
In air conditioning, the amount of air to be handled by the fan equip ment is not covered by any air change or cubical content rule; it should be based and is dependent upon a correct heat balance, handling the re quired amount of air which when absorbing all sources of heat within a room, will not raise above the predetermined temperature'desired for the room.
Example, desired--70 deg. temperature and 50 per cent relative humidity. This corresponds to 50 deg. dew-point. The difference between 50 deg. dew-point and 70 deg. final room, temperature is 20 deg. Assume-the total value in heat units to be absorbed in main taining 70 deg. as 20,000 B.t.u. then the air capacity of the equipment is

Chapter XXV--Air Conditioning and Cooling
--= 56,000 cu. ft. per minute. {Note. The factor 56 is a
convenient factor representing the air volume in cubic feet that will rise 1 deg. in absorbing 1 B.t.u.)
The above briefly expressed shows the method of determining air capacity required for the problem considered.
Dehumidification being required to first cool the air to 50 deg. during
warm months of the year involves the use of mechanical refrigeration.
The next step is to determine the refrigeration load and water cooling
surface requirements. It must not be presumed that the 20,000 B.t.u.
factor used in the above example to determine air capacity also represents
the refrigeration load.
.
The refrigeration load should be based upon the cooling of 56,000 cu. ft. of air to at least 50 deg. The total heat to be removed in cooling air to 50 deg. is dependent upon the difference between the total heat of the air before and after cooling.
The total heat to be removed varies with the proportion of the outside air and return air used, and this in turn is governed by the nature of the particular problem and geographical location. It should be understood that the greater the proportion of outside air used during maximum summer weather the greater will be the refrigeration or cooling load.
The usual way of adding moisture to air in large plants is with the use of an air washer while in homes and offices, water pans in furnaces, or devices used in connection with radiators tend to better prevailing indoor conditions. While with air washers the degree of humidity as well as the temperature can be definitely controlled, little attention is paid to these items in the average dwelling as contrasted with factories, theatres, schools and other large buildings.
USE OF REFRIGERATION IN AIR CONDITIONING
The advantages of one method of cooling air over another and the
general factors governing the proportioning and design of air conditioning
units are of interest to all whose work may bring them in contact with
systems using refrigeration. It is the purpose of this section to give those
not familiar with this important branch of air conditioning a better
understanding of how refrigeration is applied in this work.
.
The producing of the refrigeration for an air conditioning installation is a problem for the engineer, and is the same as any other refrigerating problem with a varying load. The method of treatment of the air, and its distribution is a separate study involving the entire subject of air conditioning.
The remaining problems, then, in connection with the use of refrigera tion in air conditioning is the actual application of refrigeration in a unit or apparatus for cooling the air.
The transfer of heat in air conditioning apparatus is usually accomT plished by one of three methods:
1. Passing air through cold water or cold brine sprays. 2. Passing air directly over cold coils. 3. Combination of the above two methods.

Chapter XXV--Air Conditioning and Cooling
COLD SPRAYS VS. COLD COILS
A liquid spray which absorbs the heat from the air and transfers it to cooling coils is more frequently used than cooling coils in direct contact with the air, for the following reasons: .
(1) An economic method of securing an enormous radiating surface for heat transfer from the air, (2) relatively small amount of cooling coils surface required, therefore, relatively low first cost, relatively small space and light weight, (3) economy in power for driving compressor, (4) ease of keeping unit clean, (5) ease of controlling effect on air, (6) securing of air cleaning at all times, (7) humidity control during all seasons of the year, (8) continuous cleaning radiating surface, unhampered' by any frosting, with accompanied increase of heat transfer, (9) high heat transfer from liquid to air and from liquid to liquid cooling coils.
Water is generally used for spraying when the lowest liquid temperature is not too close to freezing. For lower temperature calcium or brine solutions of varying strengths, according to the requirements, are used.
With the comparatively small temperature differences encountered in
such work, as 40 deg. water and 55 deg. air, the need of considerable heat
absorbing surface is apparent. When water is sprayed the heat transfer
must take place on the surface of the drops and the square feet of surface
will depend upon how finely the water is divided. Ten gallons of water
sprayed and divided into spheres of 0.25 in. diameter gives about 380 sq.
ft. of drop surface. If divided into drops of 0.10 in. diameter spheres, the
surface increases to about 1000 sq. ft. The water is divided into almost
invisible drops and the square feet of radiating surface secured is corre
spondingly great.
'
With water flowing over the cooling coils the rate of heat transfer is many
times that secured with air passing over or through the coils even when the
coils are dry and not frosted. With the correct design and proportioning
40, 50, or even 60 B.t.u. per hour per sq. ft. per deg. difference may be
obtained in practical commercial units as compared to the 2 B.t.u. or
6 B.t.u. from dry coils to air. The high transmission from water to coil,
frosting disadvantages and other factors all combine to necessitate much
less water-to-coil surface than coil-to-air surface with an accompanying
saving of cost, space, and weight.
'
Many air conditioning installations are operated 24 hrs. per day and
on every installation power used for operation is important. It should
be understood that with the higher refrigerant temperatures operating
at the higher refrigeration plane, the power used by the compressors will
be lower per ton of refrigeration effect, than when operated at lower
temperatures of refrigerant and at a lower refrigeration plane. This is
true regardless of whether ammonia, carbon dioxide, or dielene or any
of the other refrigerants are used.
,
CLEANING UNIT
When using the coil-to-air bunker room designs in order to get contact between the coils and air, the coils must be close together, arranged in some staggered form or with deflectors and baffles. Such arrangements make it.almost impossible to allow for proper cleaning. .
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929

Chapter XXV--Air Conditioning and Cooling
Dirt collects on the wet surfaces as on the wet eliminator or scrubber plate surfaces in the dehumidifying unit but in the bunker room there is
no flow of water to clean the surface. Fungus slime frequently collects which, together with rust and dirt and matter carried in by the air, makes frequent cleaning desirable, if not an absolute necessity.
With the spray method the flowing water keeps all surfaces cleaner and the draining of the tanks gives a ready means of carrying away all matter
collected.
CONTROLLING EFFECT ON AIR
The control of outgoing air conditions, whether by hand or by auto
matic devices, is more rapidly changed in the spraying method than in the coil-to-air method. If an operator is cooling the air with coils covered
with frost (and they are practically always covered with frost and ice) and
he desires to remove the cooling effect he may shut off the refrigerant but the bunker room will continue to treat the air until the frost and ice are
melted which may take quite a while. The alternative method of chang
ing the air temperature is to use more space and increase the cost by
providing a by-pass duct around the bunker room.
.
By using a small tank capacity in relation to the volume being pumped
it is possible quickly to cool or heat the water and thus have quick effect
on the air.
r
_ ..
Cleaning of Air ~
.
Where dirt or gases carried by the outdoor air which would harm a
product or be undesirable for persons, the coil-to-air bunker room does
no cleaning and may even add unsatisfactory bacteria due to the unit not .being easily kept clean. The spray unit is in itself an efficient air cleaning
apparatus.
Humidifying of Air
-
When refrigeration is used in air conditioning work, whether primarily for lowering the dry bulb or for lowering the humidity, the resulting moisture in the air is seldom as low as in the outdoor air during our many winter months. For many uses too low a humidity is as undesirable as too high a humidity and many times a constant humidity is desired all year to control yearly manufacturing conditions. The coil-to-air method offers no humidifying whatever while the spray type unit changes from a dehumidifier to a humidifier as soon as the water is not cooled. By air recirculation or by heating the water or by both, any desired degree of relative humidity may be produced by the spray type unit and the
humidity controlled all year.
Coil and Spray Combined
Without study it might appear that placing the coils in the spray chamber would be the practical solution. It is seldom that this is advisable.
On light duty units, that is, where not much refrigeration is being used in comparison with the air being handled and in some small units, coils may be placed in the spray chamber thus doing away with the lower coil chamber, tank, and troughs, but more coil surface and a' large spray chamber must be used.

Chapter XXV--Air Conditioning and . Cooling
Unless the resistance of the unit is to be increased the spray chamber
must be increased to allow for the space occupied by the coil in the air
path. If much refrigeration is being used-it will be found that the hori
zontal projected area of the coil is considerable.
:
Only a small , fraction of the water'sprayed hits or comes in contact with the coil surface. Some of the water is therefore not cooled during each cycle and to maintain a certain average water temperature some of the water must be cooled considerably lower. As it is not advisable to operate too close to the freezing point, either brine must be sprayed or a low temperature cannot be carried without submerged coil surface as well as extra coils in the spray chamber.
When the sprayed water hits the cooling coil it does not have a ten dency to stick to the coil. The result is that a lower total volume of water will be .flowing over the total coil surfacb and less total cooling will be secured: per foot of surface used. -
If the cost of a larger spray chamber, extra coil surface in the spray chamber, and the submerged coils required and the other factors are favorable, the coils may be used in the upper spray chamber with satis factory results in some installations.
For some duties a return bend arrangement may be used passing the air through the upper chamber and then down and back through the lower coil chamber. The coils are covered by a film of running water at a lower temperature than the air and as some air will come in contact with the cold water and other cooled surfaces a limited amount of extra cooling may be secured.
There is one important point which is a problem for the refrigerating engineer, but which has sometimes been overlooked. This is the matter of control of the refrigeration. Almost all air conditioning installations, whether with automatic or hand control, give a varying refrigerating load. Systems have been operated using many tons of refrigeration and this load has suddenly been removed owing to changing requirements. Meanwhile the ammonia compressor may be operating, and freezing of the system with accompanying damages results if carried far enough. Ammonia lines in a plant cannot be tapped and valves turned on and off quite as readily as in a steam line. The refrigerating engineer should be fully advised regarding the varying of the air conditioning refrigerating load.
With the accompanying charts no one should have difficulty in checking a layout or making preliminary approximate estimates of the part of an air conditioning unit using ammonia as the refrigerant. It is impossible to give here all the factors governing the use of refrigeration and the allowance to make for different conditions such as coils that are dirty or oily bn the inside, coils with poor outside surfaces, the element of time in changing'conditions of air treatment, structural considerations, and par ticularly the action of the water when it is sprayed in the coil chamber in cqntact with the air. It is not suggested by the author that those unfamiliar with the details of such work use these charts except as a source of general information as to the factors governing the design of such equipment.

Pipes High have been increased to eliminate fractions and in designing a unit the lineal feet of coil required would have to be increased in proportion. Allowance must be made for dirty coils, uneven water distribution, quick control of temperatures, and other factors, all of which might double the coil surface shown mathematically by the charts.
The heat-transfer which may be obtained in the upper chamber and the maximum rise in the water temperature, and therefore the use of Fig. 1, will vary with each change in nozzle, pump pressure, time element, pounds of water used per pound of air, water to air temperature differences, and other such factors as might be expected, but once the volume of water and the temperature through which it must be cooled are determined, the design of that part of the apparatus using refrigeration will be a comparatively simple problem to those familiar with such work.
In this work the problems are many and varied, for cooling is used in many industries as well as for the conditioning of air in hotel diningrooms, theatre auditoriums, and many other rooms where it is desirable to maintain a temperature under that prevailing out of doors.
With modern refrigerating and dehumidifying apparatus properly designed and applied it is possible to obtain most any percentage of ventilation perfection. Unless artificial cooling is resorted to it is hardly

possible to obtain better than 75 per cent perfection in hot sultry summer weather. In hotel, theater, etc., cooling work recirculation will conserve
heat in winter and refrigeration in summer.
The development of the science of air conditioning has been rapid
and the. textile industry has derived great benefit from the adoption of adequate systems.. Its applications are wide entering somewhere into every process in making of articles used every day, such as clothing, candy, meat products, and a host of others. Mass production of uniform
quality products has been made possible and has placed manufacturing
schedules on a year round basis for many industries. It has also improved conditions of comfort and permitted the operation of theaters and other assembly places every day of the year contributing greatly to the health
comfort and wealth of the nation.

CHAPTER XXVI
SELECTION OF FANS FOR HEATING, VENTILATION, DRYING AND CONVEYING
Service Requirements, Fan Characteristics, Characteristic Faa Curves, Types of Fans, Selection of Fans, Designation of- Fans, Arrangement of Drive.
IN order to properly select fans, it is necessary to know the requirements of the system and the operating characteristics of the various types of fans available. The items of requirements are:
1. Cubic feet of air to be moved per minute. 2. The static resistance of the. system. 3. The type of motive power available. 4. The nature of the load such as variable air quantities or pressures.
The items of fan characteristics are:
1. Efficiency. 2. Noise. 3. First cost. 4. Space required. 5. Type of fan best suited to service required.
.
.
In order to facilitate the choice of apparatus, fan tables usually show the following factors for each size fan operating against a wide range of static pressures:
X. Volume of air in cubic feet per minute (68 deg. fahr.-50 per cent Relative Humidity --0.07488 lb. per cubic foot).
2. Outlet velocity.
3. Revolutions per minute.
4. Brake horsepower.
5. Tip or peripheral speed.
.
6. Static pressure.
The most efficient operating point of the fan is usually shown by either bold or italicized figures in the capacity tables. .
Fans can be grouped into two general classes:
1. Disc and propeller fans, which produce, motion of the air by the thrust effect of
inclined blades.
.
.
2. Centrifugal fans or. blowers, which produce air movement by the centrifugal force
generated in a rotating column of air.
.
The material for this'Chapter was prepared especially for The Guide by the following committee:
Henry Mathis, chairman; W. Gardner, John Howatt and H. F. Maier.
'
407
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
Centrifugal fans or blowers are usually housed, though certain types
operate fairly well without housing. These fans or blowers can further
be classified according to the type of wheel as follows:
'.
(a) Paddle wheel or steel plate type with radial blades. (ft) Multiblade with forward curved blades. (c) Multiblade with radial blades. (d) Multiblade with partially backward curved blades. (e) High-speed fans with fully backward curved blades.
CHARACTERISTIC CURVES
Characteristic curves of each type of fan are shown, illustrating the performances of each type. Reference is made to The Standard Test
Chapter XXVI--Selection of Fans for Heating
operation, and are particularly desirable for use in types of unit heaters having low resistance heating elements and in moving large volumes of air with little or no duct work. While this type can operate against considerable resistance, the power increases rapidly and the noise often becomes objectionable, so that they do not always compare favorably with centrifugal fans for such service.
CENTRIFUGAL FANS AND BLOWERS
With centrifugal fans and blowers, when the resistance is increased (at constant speed) the power and capacity decrease. The efficient operating range covers a considerable latitude of capacities and occurs when the static pressures produced are highest, making, this type pre ferred in any system having considerable resistance to overcome.
Code for Disc Fans, Propeller Fans, Centrifugal Fans and Blowers as adopted by the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers and the National Association of Fan Manufacturers. Manu facturers' capacity tables ordinarily list capacities between the dotted vertical range lines. All characteristic curves are for constant speed. The contour of performance curves will vary with different makes and designs, but all fans of a similar type have thesame general characteristics.
DISC AND PROPELLER FANS
Disc and propeller fans are best adapted for free air delivery, or opera tion against slight resistances, as the characteristic curve of these fans shows their rapid reduction in capacity and increase in power as the resistance increases; (See Fig. 1.)
Disc fans properly designed have a satisfactory efficiency at low resistance, being equal in this respect to a good centrifugal fan or blower. Under these conditions, they excel in low first cost and. economy of
408
A fan of any type should be chosen at or fairly near the point of
maximum efficiency. Selecting a fan beyond this point results in higher
capacity) higher outlet velocity, lower efficiency and tendency to create
noise.
.
The paddle wheel type of fan is practically obsolete for ventilation where large volumes of air are to be moved efficiently. Their use is largely confined to such application- as conveyors, where quantities of material are to be carried, or to handling air or gases containing foreign materials, as the open construction and flat blades do not allow this ' material to collect as readily as do other types.
Fig. 2 shows that over the entire useful range the static and total
pressure decreases as the capacity increases. The horsepower curve is
practically a straight diagonal line increasing from no delivery to full
open delivery. A larger size fan is required for a given capacity in com
parison with multiblade fans.
--.
. ....
The forward curved, multiblade fan is the type most commonly used
409

Chapter XXVI--Selection of Fans for Heating
. The partial backward curved multiblade type of fan lends itself par
ticularly to direct drive through a considerable range of sizes, as this fan
must be, driven approximately 75 per cent faster than the forward curved
multiblade fan for the same results. Fig: 4 shows a continually dropping
contour as the quantity of air delivered increases. The horsepower curve
gradually increases showing a tendency to flatten at maximum delivery,
reducing the probability of motor overloads if the actual resistance is
lower than calculated.
' As with the paddle wheel fan, the air delivery at a. given speed is
more constant with varying resistance than is the forward curved multi
blade type.
.
Multiblade fans with radial blades have performance characteristics

in heating and ventilating work, as it has a low peripheral speed, a large
capacity and is quiet in operation. The point of maximum efficiency for this fan occurs near the point of
maximum static pressure. The static pressure drops consistently from
the {Joint of maximum efficiency to full open operation. Fig. 3 shows that this type of fan will have a high and low delivery for a given static pressure at constant speed. Manufacturers' tables ordinarily list only
the capacities between the vertical range lines, and selection of fans should be made within this range. The horsepower curve rises continually
from low to peak capacity, but if reasonable care be exercised in figuring
resistances, there is no danger of overloading the motor.
.
The multiblade forward curved and partial backward curved fans are
good types for general ventilation.
Fig. 4. Characteristics of Partial Backward Curve Multiblade Fans 410
resembling the partially backward curved multiblade fan. The outstand ing difference occurs in the revolutions per minute as the radial blade fan must be operated at approximately 80 per cent of the speed of the partial backward curved multiblade fan for like results.
The outstanding characteristics of the fully backward curved multi blade type fan are the steep pressure curves, the non-overloading power curve; and the high revolutions per minute. This fan operates at a peripheral speed of. approximately 250 per cent of the forward curved multiblade type for like results. The pressure curves begin to drop at very low capacity and continue to fall rapidly to full opening. This makes it adaptable to parallel operation for such applications as-large stoker installations. The steep pressure curves tend to produce constant capacity under changing pressures. Where wide fluctuations in resistance of a system occur, the use of this type of fan is desirable to prevent motor overloading. The maximum horsepower requirements occur at about the maximum efficiency. Consequently, a motor selected to carry the load at this point will be of sufficient capacity to carry the fan over its full range of capacities at a given speed. The speed is high for a given pres sure making it adaptable for direct-connected high-speed drives.
411
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
The high speed of these fans makes necessary heavier construction,
larger shafts and bearings. Consequently, more operating, attention and
service is required than for the multiblade type. The dimensional bulk
for a given duty is one and one-half to two times that of a forward curved
multiblade fan,
.
SELECTION OF FANS FOR VENTILATION
Two important factors in selecting fans for ventilating systems are: Efficiency (which affects the cost of operation) and Noise. First cost and space available are secondary. Proper size fans should be selected to operate at maximum efficiency without noise. Noise in a ventilating system is irritating and cause for complaint; fans must be selected of proper size in order to reduce it to a minimum. Noise may be caused by other factors than the fan; namely, high velocity in the duct work, loca tion of the fan room, construction of floors and walls and improper instal lation. (See Chapter XXVIII on Air Duct Design and Construction.) Where noise is chargeable directly to the fan, it is either caused by excessive peripheral speeds or the fan is of insufficient size. A fan that is noisy is usually one that is operated at a point considerably beyond maximum efficiency.
For a given static pressure there is a corresponding outlet velocity and peripheral speed wherein maximum efficiency is obtained. If a fan be selected to operate at this point, cost of operation and noise can be held within control.
To aid in selecting fans as near as possible to point of maximum efficiency, there are listed for each static pressure corresponding outlet velocities and tip speeds that will give satisfactory results.

Lower outlet velocities than listed above may be used, but care rtiust be exercised to avoid selecting a fan operating below its useful range.
In exhaust ventilating systems where the air column moves toward the fan, noise due to the higher tip speeds and outlet velocities, will not be so readily transmitted back through the air column to the building.
412
Chapter XXVI--Selection of Fans for Heating
Therefore, higher outlet velocities up to 2000 ft. per minute may be used, but at the expense of increased power. Amply large fans should be used for both exhaust and supply systems, as there may be leakage through joints in the duct work, necessitating the delivery of more air than is exhausted from or supplied through the openings in the various rooms.
Long runs of distributing ducts, heaters, air washers, etc;, are usually part of a system where high static pressures are needed; therefore, it is good practice to select fans with the higher outlet velocities and peripheral speeds recommended, as the duct system, itself, will tend to muffle objec tionable air sounds. Where the fan is connected with short ducts to register faces, fans with low outlet velocities should be used regardless of the static pressure.
FANS FOR DRYING
Both disc and centrifugal types of fans are used for drying work. The
former is well adapted to the removal of moisture-laden air when op
erating against low resistance and handling air at low temperatures. Motors on these fans are usually of the fully enclosed moisture-proof
type so that saturated air or air containing foreign material will not ' injure the motors.
Unit heaters employing disc or propeller type fans are widely used in
the drying field. In drying, disc or propeller fans can be used where duct work is required and air is to be delivered against pressure as the
noise developed from the high peripheral speed is not ordinarily objec tionable in process work of this nature.
Centrifugal fans or blowers of the multiblade type are generally selected
to supply air for drying, as they are capable of delivering large volumes against all pressures with a minimum amount of power.
Belt driven fans are preferred as they make a more flexible and eco
nomical unit. Wherever drying is done throughout the year and air requirements change as the drying conditions change, the drying can be
speeded up or reduced through control of the fan capacity by either fan speed or volume dampers.
Due to low speeds of forward curved multiblade or paddle wheel type
fans, these, can be direct connected to reciprocating steam engines and
the exhaust steam used in the heating coils. In selecting engine driven
fans for drying processes, wherein a large quantity, of exhaust steam is
used in the heaters, a smaller fan can be. used because power economy is
not essential.
;.
Where static pressure in a dryer varies and battery operation is re quired, the full backward curved fan is recommended. This type is well adapted for direct connected motors of the higher speeds.
FANS FOR DUST COLLECTING AND CONVEYING '
The application of fans or exhausters for handling refuse, dust, fumes, etc., generated by machine equipment is well covered in Chapter XXXII of. The Guide. Information is there given regarding the method for (determining the necessary air quantities, velocity required for carrying various materials and method of determining maintained resistance'or total static pressure at which the fan is to operate.
413
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
The selection of a proper size fan or exhauster is at times governed by the future requirements of the plant. In many instances, additional future capacity is anticipated and should be provided for.
Having determined the necessary volume of air and maintained re sistance or static pressure required, the proper size fan is selected from the fan manufacturers' performance chart or capacity table. If the fan is to be pulley driven, its selection is a simple matter. The fan chosen is the size that will provide the required ultimate quantities with the minimum power consumption.
In selecting fans to be direct connected to alternating current constant speed motors, it is necessary to choose one that will operate at a speed
Fig. 6. Correct Rotation
Fig. 7. Incorrect Rotation
to accommodate standard motor speeds which on alternate currents are as follows:
60 cycle 425, 490, 570, 680, 860, 1150, 1740 and 3400 r.p.m. 50 cycle 360, 410, 475, 570, 715, 965, 1450 and 2800 r.p.m. 25 cycle 180, 205, 240, 285, 360, 480, 1440 and 1720 r.p.m.
*
Either belt driven fans or direct connected fans are commonly used. Both types have their advantages and disadvantages. While a fan driven by a belt requires more space, more upkeep and more loss in power due to belt slippage, the belted fan is suitable in a plant where fans are changed from time to time to operate on different systems. It is well known that alternating current motors of higher standard speeds have better efficiencies than the low speed motors. Therefore, the overall efficiency of a belt driven fan and motor will usually exceed that of a fan direct connected to a less efficient motor. Low speeds A. C. motors, although sometimes used, are not to be recommended as they are less efficient and higher in cost than high speed motors. (See Chapter XXVII
on Motive Power and Controls for Fans.)
Direct connected units require a minimum of space,'no loss in power transmission and less attention. The speed, however, is fixed. Variable, speed motors with controllers may be used, but are expensive in first cost and maintenance, and inefficient at the reduced speed.
414
Chapter XXVI--Selection of Fans for Heating
GENERAL SUGGESTIONS
Single inlet, single width fans should be selected wherever possible:
If double width, double inlet fans are selected, care must be taken that
both inlets have the same free area. If one inlet is obstructed more than
the other, the fan will not operate properly, as one half of the wheel will
deliver more air than the other half.
.
Where duct connections are made on double width fans, static pres sure on both inlets must be carefully balanced; otherwise, the fans may be over or under capacity. Inlet connections on double width fans neces sitate the driving arrangement on the outside with extended shafts and outboard pedestals. It is not considered good practice to drive the belt through duct connections.
In selecting the discharge and rotation of the fan, the design of the duct should be continuous with the fan scroll, as in Figs. 6 and 7 which show the proper and improper rotation for connecting fan to duct work.--
DESIGNATION OF FANS'
This method of designation will apply to all centrifugal fans, single or double width, and single or double inlet. Do not use the word "hand," but specify "clockwise" or "counter-clockwise."
Facing the driving side of the fan, blower or blast wheel, if the proper direction of rotation is clockwise, the fan, blower or blast wheel will be designated as clockwise. If the proper direction of rotation is counter-clockwise, the designation will be counter clockwise. (The driving side of a single inlet fan is considered to be the side opposite the inlet regardless of the actual location of the drive.)
The discharge of.a fan will be determined by the direction of the line of air discharge and its relation to the fan shaft, as follows:
Bottom horizontal.--If the line of air discharge is horizontal and below the shaft.
Top horizontal.--If the line of air discharge is horizontal and above the shaft.
Up blast.--If the line of air discharge is vertically up.
.. ..
Down blast.--If the line of air discharge is vertically down.
All intermediate discharges will be indicated as angular discharge as follows:
Either top or bottom angular up discharge or top or bottom angular down discharge, the smallest angle made by the line of air discharge with; the horizontal being specified.
ARRANGEMENT OF DRIVE

CHAPTER XXVII
MOTIVE POWER AND CONTROLS FOR FANS
Different Kinds of Motor Drives, Data on Steam, Power, Noise Prevention, Systems . of Hand and Automatic Control, Remote Control.
,
TO make a proper selection of motors for heating, ventilating, drying, air conditioning, exhaust and collecting systems is an important function of an architect's and engineer's work in producing a plant that is efficient and economical. Points to be discussed briefly are fan character istics, motor selection, methods of drive and general requirements of control as well as other power sources and sound deadening methods.
FAN MOTIVE POWER
.
Motive power for fans should be determined in accordance with the Standard Code of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers, Transactions, Vol. 29, 1923; p. 442..
Fans divide themselves into two general classes; the disc or propeller
type, and the centrifugal type.
'
.
Disc and Propeller Fans
.
The disc or propeller type of fan is available for conditions of low air resistance, with very short ducts, or no ducts at alt. The low speed of the
blades near the hubs, compared with the relatively high peripheral speed renders, this entire class of fans of low efficiency when overcoming heavy resistance. The air driven by the more effective blade areas near the rim can pass back through the less effective blade areas at the hub more easily than if can overcome the duct-resistance. The-power required for such fans increases with the cube of the speed as the.speed is increased, and the static efficiency curve falls rapidly at any given-speed when the resistance to air flow is increased.
Disc and-propeller fans lend themselves to1 direct-connected motive power, especially as the speeds may be high enough for economical electric motor speeds.
In specifying direct connected electric motors for these fans it should always be remembered that the motor will be subject to the dust and j5ossible high temperature of the material handled by the fan. ; ,
Enclosed and specially cooled electric motors are.available for this service, and in many types the fan is suspended on the motor shaft.
Centrifugal Fans
-
:.
The centrifugal, housed type of fan is available for conditions of high air resistance, with heaters, ducts, etc., and is used for systems requiring.,
from one-fourth to two inches or more of water pressure to overcome the air friction. ; . : -
Material for this section prepared especially, for The Guide by S. R. Lewis.
; .
417
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
The power required for such fans is proportional to the volume of the air moved, and to the pressure overcome. Centrifugal fans with radial
or forward-curved blades require power proportional to the volume at constant speed and have a power increase as the cube of the speed. If
the resistance is increased the air volume is reduced, and the power at constant speed is reduced. If the resistance is reduced the air volume is increased at constant speed, and the power demand will be increased.
Centrifugal fans with backward-curved blades and those with com pound curves while following the same general laws as the fans with the forward-curved blades, have been developed to the extent that they have a self-limiting power demand at a certain peripheral velocity even though
the resistance at that speed may be decreased.
I t is no easy matter to predetermine the exact resistance to be encoun tered by a fan, or having determined this resistance, to insure that no changes in construction or operation shall ensue which may increase air resistance, thus requiring more fan speed and power to deliver the required
volume, or which may reduce air resistance, thus causing delivery of more air and a consequent increase of power even at constant speed.
It is recommended therefore for centrifugal type fans that the rated
piower to be supplied shall exceed the rated fan power by a liberal margin,
depending on the type of blade, of from 10 per cent minimum, to about
25 per cent maximum.
'"
Justification for liberal power provision exists also in the possibility of varying demand due to changes in ventilation requirements, intensity
of occupation, weather conditions, etc.
Speed Control
Some method of volume control of fans usually is desirable. This may be done by varying the peripheral velocity, or by interposing resistance, as by throttling-dampers. Both methods, since they reduce the volume of air, reduce the power required. In many installations adjustments of volume are desirable during varying hours of the day. In others an increased supply of air in summer over that needed for winter, is demanded. There is room for judgment in deciding whether speed-control or damper-control shall be used for. specific cases. Where noise is a factor, it may be exceedingly desirable to reduce the speed at times, while on the other hand a centrifugal fan which has its normal speed reduced as much as 50 per cent without change in resistance will move so small a volume of air thatNoperating the . fan will .be hardly
worth while;
. .
Electric Motors
`
-
' Electric power is the almost universal solution for fan operation, and
each type of motor and current has its advantages and disadvantages.
Direct connected electric motors are usually very efficient for fan driving because there is no slippagedueto belts, and no wear or noise due
to chains or gears.
.
Unless the fan speeds are high enough to permit comparatively high
rotative speeds, however, direct connected motors must be unduly large
and heavy and will be costly. If anything goes wrong with a direct
Chapter XXVII--Motive Power and Controls for Fans
connected motor there may be a considerable delay in replacing or repairing it, and changes in speed are not always made easily with full efficiency. On the other hand, the non-direct-connected motors have transmission subject to wear and slippage, and chains and gears may be noisy. With the latter type, however, changes in speed-ratio are easily made, and in case of a break-down a standard stock-motor may be substituted quickly.
Improved operating characteristics are obtained in the higher speed belted motors than in the slower speed direct connected motors. Ef ficiencies and power factors of alternating current higher speed motors are greatly improved over those of the slower speed motors, Quietness of operation in induction motors is more easily obtained in the higher speed machines. Magnetic noise is the chief offender because it is carried, and sometimes is amplified, by the steel work of a building. It is possible, however, to obtain motors especially designed for quiet operation, which will practically be free from objectionable noises. Even though these quiet operating motors shall be used the motor and fan still should be insulated from the foundation and the duct system should be broken and a suitable connection made by canvas or some non-metallic substance.
KINDS OF ELECTRICAL CURRENT
Direct current motors are extremely satisfactory for fan drive. Various kinds of speed-control can be obtained by the use of hand, semi-automatic or full automatic controllers.
Single phase, constant speed motors are satisfactory and available in sizes 10 hp. and smaller. Single phase adjustable speed motors (repulsion motors) in small sizes are available, but are satisfactory only when the load is always present. The repulsion single phase motor has an inherent characteristic of being subject to change of speed with a change in load. It should not, therefore, be used in driving centrifugal housed fans where there is any restriction in the fan line, such as a damper. Shutting off the air intake or air outlet from a centrifugal housed fan relieves the motor of the load and, with a repulsion single phase motor, the speed attained because of this light load would be objectionable from a noise standpoint and might do some damage to the fan wheel itself. With a propeller type of fan, the repulsion motor is quite satisfactory because if the air outlet is closed, load on the motor is still maintained.
Single phase motors require special starting devices, which are noisy and troublesome as compared with electric motors for direct current or polyphase current.
Polyphase motors are generally satisfactory for driving fans, though they are not adapted to exceedingly low speeds. It is seldom necessary to reduce the speed of a ventilating fan more than 50 per cent from the maximum fan speed and this feature is obtainable with alternating current motors by the use of hand, semi-automatic or full automatic controllers.
CONTROLLERS FOR ELECTRIC MOTORS
Very small direct current motors may be started by throwing them directly on the line through a suitable starting switch. The larger sizes require some type of starting device. When speed adjustment is desired,
419
I: t
American Society of Heating and Ventilating-Engineers Guide, 1929
the starting device and means for adjusting speed are usually incorporated
in one controller.
.
Alternating current motors, 5 hp. and smaller, may usually be thrown
directly on the line, unless local regulations may prevent.
Remote speed indicating controllers are available for operating fan motors. Speeds are changed by push-button stations, and small electric lamps indicate at what speed the fan is running. This type of control is very desirable in large buildings where the engineer is to have complete charge of the ventilating system. The push-button station may be
located in the engineer's office, giving him complete control of the motor and indicating to him at what speed the various fans are running, or these push-button controls may be located in the spaces being ventilated, either with or without duplicate pilot lights.in the engineer's office. Re mote control may also be effected by pneumatic or by hydraulic apparatus.
Fan speeds generally are constant unless changes in the weather require corresponding variations. There is available a dial switch controller which can be pre-set manually for any speed desired and which after having been so pre-set will operate to control the motor indefinitely, in connection with the push-button. The dial switch may be located either
at the remote station or near the fan.
Arrangements can be made for remote control of fan motors, or for automatic control by. influence of temperature. Remote control may be by pneumatic or by hydraulic manipulation as well as by electrical means.
In many large ventilating systems which have heating plants in connection/ steam engines are used to operate fans. A medium-speed
steam engine, exhausting at low pressure into the radiators which heat the building or which warm the air, is a very economical source of power, is nearly noiseless, and has a wide range of speed variation. The steameconomy of such an engine usually is of little importance, since the engine serves as an auxiliary to the pressure-reducing valve interposed in such
cases between-the boiler and the radiators. Internal combustion engines and line shafting are often used for fan
driving, requiring clutches or shift-belts with loose pulleys in order to
secure proper starting and control.
Control of Noise from Fan Motive Power
Experience seems to indicate that noise is largely eliminated by isolation of foundations. The best practice is to bolt the fan and motor rigidly to substantial foundations of concrete or'wood, to give inertia and solidity, and to float this foundation above a yielding, inert non-resonaht buffer of cork or dry sand, with arrangements to prevent any side motion by
interposing similar side-buffers.
It is sometimes necessary to sound-insulate the Walls of the machinery room. : The best practice for this purpose is cork, felt or other sound absorbing material against the walls, faced with sheet metal, the metal being isolated from direct contact with the building structure, or it is
better still to use some porous and non-resonant material instead of the
sheet metal.

All .duct connections to fans should be made with canvas or other

CHAPTER XXVIII
AIR DUCT DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION
Velocities, Properties of Air, Pressure Losses, Proportioning Ducts.
Construction Data.'
.
THE successful operation of a mechanical or plenum heating installa tion, an exhaust system or a dust collecting plant is largely dependent upon the correct design of the duct system. Materials, proportions, friction, location and innumerable other items are factors in the correct operation of a duct system.
In the design of ducts and flues for gravity or mechanical circulation of air, losses due to friction are the basis for figuring and these losses must be kept within the available pressure difference. This pres sure difference in mechanical ventilation is that derived from the fan, while in gravity ventilation it is the aspirating effect due to the tempera ture and height of the column of heated air.
When attempting the design of a duct system the general rules to remember are:
1. The air should be conveyed as directly as possible at reasonable velocities to obtain the result desired with greatest economy of power, material, and space.
2. Sharp elbows and bends are to be avoided.
3. All ducts or flues shall have sides as nearly equal in size as possible. (In no case shall the ratio between long and short sides be greater than 10 to 1.)
The piping systems for various operations must be of different design
as the principal consideration for industrial work is for heating white in
public buildings the air required for ventilation greatly exceeds the
volume needed for heating. For instance, the ducts for a school, theatre
or other public building,' where freedom from noise and elimination of
drafts is essential and where branch ducts serve individual rodms,' present
more difficult problems in design than are involved in proportioning
ducts intended for heating a factory, where a main duct of decreasing
dimensions extends lengthwise of the building and gives. a uniform
distribution of air. For public buildings air velocities must, therefore, be
kept low between 900 and 1200 ft. per minute while in industrial buildings
they can range from 1500 to 2000 ft. per minute or even more With no
other disadvantage than expensive operation.

Chapter XXVIII--Air Duct Design and Construction
\
Standard velocities of air in public buildings are as follows:
-
1. Through the outside air intakes 1000 ft. per minute.
2. Through connections to and from heater 1000 to 1200 ft. per minute.
3. Through the main discharge duct from 900 to 1200 ft. per minute.
4. In branch ducts 600 to 1000 and vertical flues 400 to 800 ft. per minute:
5. In registers or grilles 200 to 400 ft. per minute depending upon the size and location.
: 6. If diffusers of proper design are used, 25 per cent higher air velocities may be
permitted.
It is customary in proportioning ducts for heating and ventilating work to follow either of two methods:
1. Arbitrarily select sizes from assumed velocities, depending upon velocity of air
at fan outlet.
.
2. Determining the velocity which will give an assumed resistance within fan
capacity at noiseless operating speed.
.
By decreasing the velocity in main duct as air is delivered through branch outlets: (1) more uniform air delivery through outlets is accom plished, (2) friction in smaller pipes is reduced, (3) portion of velocity head is converted into static pressure.
FRICTION LOSSES IN PIPES
. The two greatest losses in duct systems are dynamic losses and friction
losses. The former are chiefly caused by changes in direction or in
velocity of air flow and are expressed as pressure in inches of water gage--
see Table 1.
.
The loss of head caused by friction, which is numerically equal to the pressure required to._ maintain a given velocity, may be most easily expressed by the modification of the Fanning formula, when, dealing with round pipe and standard air (70 deg. fahr. -- 29.92 Bar).

For most calculations it will simplify, matters to consider that the value of / and C vary only with the nature of the pipe surface. Thus, C may be taken as about 60 for smooth piping, such as used in planing mill exhaust systems; C = 50 for ordinary galvanized iron heating and ventilating

ducts; and C = 45 for smooth and 40 for rough conduits of tile, brick or concrete.
The value of / and C given, not only vary with the roughness of the inside surface of the pipe, but also with the diameter and velocity. The coefficient of friction / decreases with both increase of diameter and velocity. It should also be noted that the coefficient of friction varies directly with the air density and approximately inversely as the absolute temperature.
The chart shown (Fig. 1) will be found very convenient to determine the-friction for a given air capacity, in various size ducts at corresponding velocities. The coefficient of friction has been corrected for the various diameters and capacities, based on the rule that the coefficient of friction Varies inversely as the 2/7 power of the diameter, and inversely as the 1/7 power of the capacity. This chart is based on a loss of one velocity head (at 2000 velocity) in a length equal to 50 diameters of 24-in. galva nized swedged pipe.
. As an example of the use of the chart, assume that it is desired to pass 10,000 cu. ft. of air per minute through 75 ft. of 24-in. diameter pipe. Find 10,000 cu. ft. of air per minute on the right scale and move hori zontally left to the diagonal line marked 24 in. The other intersecting diagonal shows that the velocity in the pipe is; 3200 ft. per minute. Directly below the intersection it is found that the friction per 100 ft. is 0.59 in., then for 75,ft. it will be 0.75 X 0.59 = 0.44 in. In a like manner any two variables may be determined by the intersection of. the lines representing the other two variables.
Other losses of pressure are at the entrance to the duct, through heater, air washer, etc. In ordinary practice it is usual to keep the sum of the piping losses Jd to yi and the loss through heater at less than of the static pressure. The remainder is then available for producing velocity.
The ideal duct system will take all factors into consideration and proportion air velocities so that the resistance will be practically equal in all ducts regardless of length. .
Friction in Elbows
Experience has shown that with an elbow of radius R = D. fairly good results rtiay be obtained. The loss with such an elbow will be about 17 per cent of a velocity head for round ducts and about 8 per cent of a velocity head for square ducts. It has been found of little or no advantage in making an elbow or radius greater than two diameters. If, however, a smaller radius than lJ^Dbe used, the losses increase rapidly. For instance, the loss for an elbow of R -- 1 D will be as high as 17.5 per cent of a velocity head for a square duct and 25.5 per cent for round ducts.
For ordinary calculations one easy long radius elbow (R = V/i D) in a circular pipe may be considered as equal in friction loss to 10 diameters of straight pipe.
Proportioning the Size for Friction
.
It is often found convenient to size pipes for different capacities but having the same friction per foot of length. Such a system may be used in any supply system, and is advantageous from the point of view that the

Air Duct Design and Construction
calculations areiquickly made and a fairly uniform air distribution may be effected-. By proper" manipulation of charts shown (Figs. 2 and 3) the engineer may determine: the diameter of branch pipes, to carry a given per cent of the total: air in main pipe with the same friction per foot of length, for instance:
Suppose the main pipe is to be a 60-in., and it is desired to know the
size of branch pipe to carry 50 per cent of total air in the main. Find
50 per cent at the left of the chart, move right to 60-in. diagonal line and
note directly above at the, top of the chart, that the branch pipe will be a
45.5 in. diameter.
.
..
.
Where rectangular ducts are used it is frequently desirable to know the
equivalent diameter of round pipe to carry the same capacity and have
the same friction per foot of length. The table on pages 425, 426, 427,
gives directly'-the circular equivalent of rectangular ducts for equal
friction and capacity; .
''
To obtain. the size of rectangular pipes for different capacities and
having the same friction per foot of length, first obtain the equivalent
round pipe for equal friction1. Thus, suppose a branch to carry 30 per
cent of a 12 x 36 in. pipe is wanted; from Table 2, it is found that the
main is equivalent to a 22.2 diameter found pipe; from page 425, 30
per cent of this is a pipe 13.5 in. in diameter, and referring again to page
425, the rectangular equivalent branch is a 12 x 13 in., 10.x 15 in. or any
other combination desirable. '
,
Exhaust Systems
In design of piping for an exhaust system where no dampers are pro
vided, it is considered good practice to make the area of the main pipe
approximately 20 per.cent greater than the sum of the areas of the
branch pipes at that point! This method gives greater uniformity of
distribution than where the increase in area is riot made. :
'
SOME GENERAL INSTALLATION AND CONSTRUCTION HINTS
1. For heating and ventilating work, ducts 6x6 in. represent a minimum size. In
any place where other considerations do not outweigh, round pipe for small flues is
recommended.
.
.
2. Abrupt'turns or sharp bends should never be made. Elbows shopld haye a throat
radius equal to the depth of the duct.
. -...... ' !
3. Transformations and offsets should not be made abruptly. Angles greater than
45 deg. should be avoided. In any case, care should, be taken not to restrict the true
cross-sectional area.
...
4. Tees or branches from main ducts should make curved connections. Accessible
and operative volume dampers should be used. Adjustable dampers should be provided
with a means of indicating from the outside, the true position of the damper.

AIR CLEANERS
Types of Air Cleaners, Air Washers, Temperature and Humidity Control, Steam Re* quired for Air Washers and Humidifiers, Viscous Filters, Efficiency in Dust Removal.
IN the selection of a suitable air cleaning device the engineer is guided largely by the character and amount of the impurities to be removed. While almost every conceivable substance enters into the composition of dust, by far the most objectionable and destructive components are soot, flue dust,'carbon and its related elements. The impurities in the air may be classified as dusts, fumes and smokes.
Dusts are particles which are large and heavy enough to fall with increasing rapidity due to gravity in still air. For instance, particles of flying sand or grit, such as are blown about on a windy day, the average diameter of which would be approximately 0.01 cm., are called dust.
Fumes are smaller particles which fall with constant velocity due to gravity in still air. The solid particles from atmospheric fog, for instance,
are called fumes and have an average diameter in the neighborhood of 0.0014 cms. '
Smokes Are. particles which do not settle at all in still air, which diffuse
constantly, and which are actuated by the Brownonian motion rather
than by gravity. An example of this type would be certain smokes, the
average diameter of the particles of which is in the neighborhood of
0.0000015 cms. . - ,
.
The first attempt at air cleaning for general ventilation work was
probably by the use of dry screens. Since ordinary Portland cement all
passes a screen having 100 mesh to the inch, it is apparent that much
dust may pass the finest mesh screen. When a screen as fine as this is
moistened, not only the dirt ceases to pass but also the air passages clog
up so that the filter becomes ineffective. Fine cloth filters were then tried
and found very effective, except that they also clog up rapidly and soon
become impervious to air. These considerations led many years ago to
the development of the air washer types of air cleaners.
.
TYPES OF AIR WASHERS
Air washers are arranged to bring the air into contact with a large water area: (1) by passing it through a fine spray; (2) by passing it over
Material for this Chapter especially prepared for The Guide by the following committee: H. C. Murphy.
chairman; W.TI. Carrier and F. B. Rowley.
..
433

wet surfaces; (3) by passing it both through a spray and over wet surfaces.
After the air is washed it is freed from entrained water.
.
When air is cleansed by washing its humidity or moisture content is usually changed. In passing through the water spray'or over the wet surfaces, both the dry and wet bulb temperature of the air approaches that of the water, at which temperature the air tends to become saturated. The moisture content of the air may, therefore, be controlled by control ling the water temperature. By using water at a temperature below the dew point temperature of the entering air the washer becomes a dehu midifier; or by heating the water to a temperature above the dew point of the entering air the humidity or moisture contents of the air may be increased.. By raising the dry bulb temperature of the air after .leaving the washer, its relative humidity may also be controlled. The humidifying
efficiency of any air washer may be given as :
. E = 1 -- Final wet bulb depression
.
Initial wet bulb depression
for example: With,an initial wet bulb depression of 20 deg. and the final wet bulb depression of 5 deg., the humidifying efficiency is
e = i; 5 deg. = 0.75 20 deg.
The usual humidifying efficiency of a good air washer is 70 per cent.
The humidifying efficiency of air washers of the' commonly termed humidifier type should range from 95 to 98 per cent.
TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY CONTROL
Air washers require a method of control of temperature to prevent freezing by too low temperature, and to prevent-over-humidification by too high temperatures of the air entering and leaving'the washer. There are available one method of hand control and five methods of automatic or semi-automatic control. The method of hand control is by tempering heaters, divided into two or more sections in series; the outer section being turned on by hand whenever the outside temperature approaches freezing; the,successive sections being turned on as the temperature drops below freezing. Where two sections are available it is usual to turn on the second section when the outside temperature goes below zero, and to turn on the third section, where necessary, at temperatures below zero. The first, or outside section must always be "turned on full in cold weather to prevent freezing of the heaters. The steam supply to the second, or inside section, may be hand-regulated at all temperatures warmer than about 10 deg. above zero.
The five systems of automatic regulation are:
1. Substitution of automatic regulation for hand regulation,, the automatic regulation , being operated in a similar manner; the sections being controlled both by variations in
the outside temperature conditions and by an auxiliary control for one inside section from a thermostat located on the discharge- side of the air washer. (It is not possible ordinarily to control the temperature of the air entering the washer except where there
434
Chapter XXIX--Air Cleaners
is an unusually long tunnel or duct for the thorough mixture of the air leaving the tempering heaters before it comes in contact with the thermostat.)
2. By heating the spray water so as to maintain a temperature or dew point (as the air is then saturated) of;the air leaving the washer at between 35 and 40 deg. This method does not necessarily require a tempering heater. It is preferable, however, to use one section for the purpose of tempering the air should the washer be shut down, this to prevent freezing of the water when the apparatus is not in operation. More than one tempering section should never be used except where temperatures may go considerably below zero; then the tempering sections may be turned on, one at about 20 deg.fahr., and the second at about 0 deg. fahr. The temperingsection may be operated manually or by a thermostat connected with the outside air. The steam supply for water heating should be sufficient to heat and saturate the air at from 10 to 35 dag. fahr., when water heating is used in conjunction with a tempering section. This is to allow a sufficient margin for safety of operation. The steam requirements for this are given later.
3. By regulating, the heat supplied either through tempering sections or through the spray water so that the water in the tank shall be kept well above the freezing point. Inasmuch as the wet bulb temperature of the air and the water in the tank are but few degrees apart when the water in the tank is not heated directly, this method is a fairly effective and simple one. One permissible variation of this method is to use a thermostat in the air leaving the washer, controlling the dry bulb temperatures at this point throughregulation of the steam supply to the inside tempering section. The wet bulb temperature of the air1 is controlled by means of water leaving the eliminator plates and is held at the desired point by means of adding heat to the spray water. This will control exactly the temperature and relative humidity of the leaving air. Two or more tempering sections are required for this method.
4. The fourth method is desirable where recirculation is used and consists in main taining the temperature leaving the washer at about 40 deg. by means of a thermostat located at this point and controlling the admixture of fresh and return air through automatically operated dampers. This prevents over-humidification, eliminates danger of freezing, and effects the highest economy in cost, as no steam is required for either tempering or humidifying except after the air has passed the washer.
5. The fifth method of automatic control is to reheat the air leaving the air washer to a definite thermostatically controlled temperature, and to control the relative hu midity of the air by means of a hygrostat which operates either on the tempering sections to heat the air or which controls a water heater for the spray water.
STEAM REQUIREMENTS FOR HEATING AND HUMIDIFYING AIR
Where the spray water is not heated it' is necessary that the wet bulb temperature of the incoming air be above the freezing point; otherwise the ' eliminator plates will coat with ice and stop up, even if the dry bulb tem perature of-the leaving air is above the freezing point.. It is necessary, to heat zero air to 48 deg. in order that the wet bulb temperature may be 35 deg. The temperature of the leaving air may then be expected to be approximately 39 deg. dry bulb and 35 deg. wet bulb, with a dew point
of 31 deg. The additional heat required due to humidification is that indicated by the temperature drop of 9 deg., or 162 B.t.u. per 100 cu. ft. of air, or 1 b.hp. for every 3400 cu. ft. of air perjninute.
These are the minimum requirements for humidification, above those
required for heating the air. The following Table 1 gives the heat re
quired, from, various outside entering wet bulb temperatures, to various
dew point temperatures corresponding to various relative humidities
at 70 deg.
'
' '
These values are the total heat required for both heating and humidifying the air. The amount of heat required for humidifying only may be found by subtracting from the values given the heat required to

AIR FILTERS
Air filters are distinguished from air washers in that they clean the air without the use of water and without the addition of a water spray. They are, usually of the following types:
1. The .viscous filter, depending upon the dirt impinging on a surface covered with a viscous fluid or oil.
2. The dry filter, which removes the dirt from the air by straining or filtering it through cloth, felt or paper screens, the openings in which are too small to allow the passage of dirt, or which removes the dirt by passing the air through tortuous passages:
VISCOUS AIR FILTERS
.
All of the so-called viscous type , air filters operate on the principle of adhesive impingement. Investigation has shown that the dirt and dust in air, including, the soot and carbons--the great destructive elements in modern ventilation -work--are trapped and retained by successive impingements on oil coated surfaces. This is not a new idea--for years roads and floors, have been oiled to keep the dust from flying about. Considerable ingenuity, however, has been shown in the various arrange ments of metallic surfaces which are formed into filter units and made
available for air cleaning work. While , the, arrangement of filtering media and the kind of materials
used are almost unlimited, there are certain rather definite requirements
436
. Chapter XXIX--Air Cleaners
for a practical commercial filter, and these have limited the possible
constructions.
.
To fulfill the essential requirements of clean air an air filter must:
1. Be efficient in dirt removal. 2. Interpose low resistance to air flow. 3. Have a large dust holding capacity. 4. Be easy to clean and to handle.
There are other factors of importance, of course, among them weight,
strength and permanency.
.
In order to secure maximum efficiency, it is necessary to divide the air into innumerable fine streams; the more intimately and frequently the air is brought into contact with the viscous-coated media the better the
Fig. 1. Resistance to Air-Flow of a Typical Unit Air Filter
cleaning will be. Theoretically seven impingements are sufficient; more
will give better service.
"
As the dirt and dust are leached out of the air and collected on the
adhesive coated surfaces, additional supplies of binding liquid are required
in order to bind further layers of dirt. For this reason filters are usually
designed to. hold somewhere within the unit additional supplies of the
binding liquid, capable of distribution by capillary attraction, or by some
mechanical means.
.,
Investigations in this country and abroad demonstrate that the first
impingement of dust-laden air on a viscous coated surface removes 60
per cent of the dust, the next impingement takes 60 per cent of what then
remains--that is, 24 per cent--the next impingement removes 9.6 per
cent, etc. The principle of progressively packed media is embodied to a
greater or less extent in all unit viscous filters. This arrangement gives
relatively large spaces for the collection of dirt in the front part of the
filter, where the bulk of the solids are taken out, without undue increase
in resistance. At the back of the filter the openings are smaller and finer
dust particles are removed.
The charging'liquid used with these filters should be odorless, fire-proof,
and germicidal in its action.
.
437
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
UNIT VISCOUS FILTERS
-
Unit viscous filters usually are made up of a number of separate filter units with a frame or frames designed to support them and arranged
so that the filter units are easily removed from the frame for cleaning
and recharging. If the unit filters are cleaned "progressively" the resistance and
volume of air delivered may be kept practically constant. By cleaning a predetermined number of filters every week--or every month, as the case may be, the resistance and consequent air volume can be held at any
desired figure. Obviously, the resistance and efficiency of a unit air filter of the ad
hesive impingement type depends upon the velocity at which the air
Fig. 2. Chart showing change in Resistance due to Dust Accumulation
is handled and the condition of the unit--that is, whether the unit is
clean or dirty. ' The efficiency of the unit is usually highest after it has accumulated approximately 75 per cent of its maximum load of dirt--as the dirt and dust accumulated in the cell usually offer highly efficient media for the
further collection of solids from the air. The resistance of the commercial unit air filter of the adhesive impinge
ment type varies from -jV to % in. water gage when clean, depending of course upon the design selected. As dust accumulates in the filter, the resistance and cleaning efficiency usually rises, charts Figs. 1 and 2.
Fig. 1 shows the resistance to air flow of a typical unit air filter, which is built in three types, having respectively }/%, J4 and A in. water gage resistance when operated at a velocity of approximately 365. lin. ft. per minute. Fig. 2 shows the change in resistance due to dust accumula tion. Under actual operating conditions one pound of dust represents about eight weeks of normal service. The resistance of an installation of filters under the above conditions could be held at any point between 0.15 in., the resistance of a clean filter, and 0.27 in., the resistance after accumulating one pound of dust, by cleaning a sufficient number of
cells each week to maintain the desired average.
438
Chapter XXIX--Air Cleaners
To make sure of proper periodic cleaning of the units the installation of a standard draft gage is recommended'.
Proper washing, drying and recharging equipment should be installed as convenient to each set of filter as possible.
AUTOMATIC VISCOUS FILTERS
Unit air filters have certain limitations in the amount of dirt which can be handled. If the dirt reaches the filter too rapidly, or in such quantities that the adhesive liquid does not have sufficient opportunity to soak through and wet the successive layers, the cleaning efficiency drops off. Removals for unit filter cleansing sometimes prove so frequent as to be objectionable or impracticable.
This fact, and perhaps the age-old effort to eliminate dependence where possible on the human element, brought forth the self-cleaning or automatic viscous filters, several distinct types of which are now available.
In the main these filters are based on the same fundamental principles as unit viscous filters. All utilize the principle of adhesive impingement. Various ingenious arrangements of struts, woven wires or foraminous metal sheets are arranged to move progressively through the. bath of charging liquid, the dirt thus being'flushed off, while in other types the filter media itself remains stationary, and the charging liquid moves over the dirt-collecting surfaces, flushing off the accumulated dirt at regular intervals, usually once in 24 hours.
DRY AIR FILTERS
There are now available various types of unit and automatic air filters in which the dust is impinged upon or filtered out through felt, cloth or paper screens. These devices require no adhesive liquid of any kind, but depend on the straining or screening action of. the filter media. The filters are cleaned by rapping,' by reversing the air flow or by supplying new filter areas.
" EFFICIENCY IN DUST REMOVAL
,
The comparative efficiency in dust removal of various air-cleaning devices can be determined by means of standardized tests made with air at stated capacities and with dust of definite quantity and quality. There are a number of excellent commercial instruments available for this purpose. The percentage of dust removal for commercial air-cleaning devices should lie between 80 and 98 per cent, and the minimum,removal under such conditions should be specified and guaranteed by the manu facturer.
CODE FOR AIR CLEANERS
A Code for the Testing of Air Cleaning .Devices is now being developed by a Committee of the American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers and considerable research is being carried on for this work.
439

RATING OF AIR CLEANERS
Air washers and filters are rated as follows:
1. Capacity in cubic feet of air handled per minute. 2. Resistance in inches of water which the cleaner offers to the flow of air at its
rated capacity.
3. Percentage of dust removal at its rated capacity.
.
4. Percentage of entrained moisture remaining in the air after passing through the
cleaner while operated at its rated capacity. 5. If considered as a humidifying agent, the humidifying and dehumidifying efficiency.

OZONE IN VENTILATION
Physical* Chemical and Germicidal Properties* Deodorizing Ozone Production, Proper Concentration, Industrial Uses.
OZONE is a normal constituent of pure, natural air and its quantity varies with the topography of the country, particularly with regard to the altitude, the presence of bodies of water, and certain plant life.
Ozone is produced, photo-chemically, by ultra-violet light of short wave length (120-180 pp.), while light of greater amplitude (300-330 p.p.) exerts a decomposing effect. At high altitudes, where short wave radia tions are more intense, ozone naturally occurs in greater quantities. It is continuously under the destructive effect of longer waves, however, but a dynamic equilibrium is finally reached between the rate of formation and the rate of decay, which shifts with the altitude. Since light of longer wave length penetrates closer to the earth than does that of shorter amplitude, the equilibrium becomes favorable to ozone directly as the altitude. -
In summing up the evidence at hand it may be concluded that ozone, while mostly absent from city air, is normally present in pure country air, but in amounts that are difficult to estimate accurately. In nature the air is continuously under ionizing influences, and the enclosing of air, as in buildings, excludes these influences, in addition to destroying the original ionization of the air. Ionization is involved in chemical activity.
The process of ozonizing, in addition to supplying ozone, ordinarily absent from city air, further provides considerable ionized oxygen, producing a fresh, chemically active air, comparable with fresh, pure air of nature.
Physical Properties
Density--Observed Values; 1.657 (Otto, Direct weight method). 1.717 (Soret, by diffusion).
Calculated Value; 1.66
The foregoing values refer to air as unity. Its rate of diffusion, with respect to oxygen is 0.75.
Heat of Formation--The production of ozone is an endothermic reaction, the heat of formation being 34,000 calories per gram molecule (Jahn, Zeit. Anorg. Chem. 68, 250;1910).
Boiling Point --112 deg. cent. (International Critical Tables, 1926).
At a temperature of 270 deg. Cent. (518 deg. fahr.), Ozone is instantly decomposed.

Its solubility in water, like all gases, is dependent upon the temperature and partial
pressure. Nemst (Festschrift, 391; 1912) gives the solubility coefficient for water, at Odeg. cent, and 760 m.m. Hg., as 0.494; or about ten times as great as oxygen. However, high concentrations of ozone, in solution, in water, are not easily obtained in practice, due to the low concentrations at which ozone is available commercially. Of the two factors, temperature appears to have the greatest bearing, as evinced by the following tabulation wherein the experiments are listed in order of decreasing pressure, with only small variations in temperature. The experiments listed here are typical of many
hundred of the kind, made by the author.

Chemical Properties
Ozone is one of the strongest oxidizing agents known. It is capable of oxidizing all of the elements, with the exception of gold and some of the
metals of the platinum group.
.
In the dry state its activity towards metals is not so marked, and in
very low concentrations, such as used in ventilation, it may be considered
as being, practically inert towards the common metals. '
It exerts a depolymerising action on the rubber molecule, its destructive effect being quite characteristic even at comparatively low concentrations (ca. 3 to 4 ppm). However, unless the rubber is under stress, fairly high concentrations (ca. 50 to 100 ppm), fail to effect it appreciably. The low concentrations used in ventilation have no noticeable effect on ordinary
rubber goods. Iodine is liberated from potassium iodide by ozone. Many of the low
oxidation salts (ous salts) are carried to a higher degree of oxidation (ic
salts) by ozone. Generally, ozone reacts to liberate molecular oxygen, only the third
atom entering into combination. This may be expressed by the equation;
M + O, = MO + 0,....;(a)
which is typical of the inorganic reactions of ozone. In many cases, however, ozone reacts as follows:
M + 0, = MO,_____ __________________ ________ -(b)
This reaction is examplified in the oxidation of sulphur dioxide:
350, + O, = 350,
' Reaction (b) is more typical of the organic, than the inorganic, reactions of ozone, as illustrated by the oxidation of urea:
C0(NH,), + 0, = N, + CO, + 2HiO.....................................,...(c)
In the oxidation of odoriferous substances, commonly met with in ventilation, such as skatole, indole, amine compounds, and the like,
442
Chapter XXX--Ozone in Ventilation
reaction (c) may be said to-hold throughout. Where an amino group is
present, molecular nitrogen will be produced, in addition to the carbon dioxide and water produced from hydrocarbons.
Germicidal Properties
-
Ozone compared with other gaseous germicides, generally used for
fumigation, rightfully holds first place, as is revealed by the following table:
Agent
Per caeinrttonebceegssearrmy iicnidmaloisted
Ozone. ...................................................................................... ......... 0.1
Formaldehyde................ ....................................-................................ 1.0
Sulphur Dioxide...... ............................................................................ 4.5
One-tenth per cent by weight, of ozone in air is equivalent to approxi mately 560 parts per million. Such a concentration of ozone could never be used in ventilating work. Rideal (Ozone, D. Van Nostrand) cites . 0.05 per cent concentration as germicidal in air. Hill and Aeberly (Heating and Ventilating Magazine, February, 1922), report noticeable bacteriacidal effects in concentrations ranging from 300 to 450 ppm by volume. Ozone, even in respirable concentrations, is effective in in hibiting the development of fungi in cold storage; however, its action is inhibitory and not destructive.
Deodorizing
T. Graham has pointed out that odoriferous substances are susceptible to oxidation. It is further known that most odoriferous substances contain unsaturated valencies, which render them particularly suscep tible to attack by ozone.
The so-called odors of animal effluvia, frequently encountered in crowded places, and where a large percentage of the air is recirculated, consists of low oxidation gases, and whilst present only in vanishingly small quantities, are highly odoriferous. These gases are completely and rapidly oxidized to odorless and innocuous products by ozone.
Hydrogen sulphide is thrown off in small quantities by man, and is frequently present in the air in relatively large quantities, as the result of many industrial operations. Ozone oxidizes hydrogen sulphide very rapidly; under some conditions to sulphuric acid and under other con ditions to free sulphur and water.
Products of putrefaction, such as trimethylamine, indole, skatole, the
mercaptans, etc., are readily oxidized by ozone; as are the odors arising from foods, especially during cooking. Many of the odors resulting from the combustion of organic matter are destroyed. Sulphurous gases produced by the combustion of coal are completely oxidized, whilst many of the unsaturated gases resulting from the incomplete combustion of natural gases, oil and spirit fuels, are deodorized by ozone.
Carbon monoxide is but slowly oxidized to the dioxide, the reaction being accelerated by the presence of a catalyst and also at elevated
" temperatures. However, the molecular concentrations of ozone must be comparable, and preferably in excess of, that of the CO, in order to obtain reaction velocities of sufficient value for practical purposes.
443
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
In garages and testing rooms the air is frequently contaminated with
gasoline vapors and unsaturated gases, resulting from incomplete com bustion, which cause headaches and feelings of lassitude. Ozone is
valuable in oxidizing these gases and freeing the air from odor. However, CO must always be taken into consideration. It is an odorless and very insidious poison, since the victim has no warning of his condition until coma is induced. Four parts of CO per ten thousand of air is the maximum concentration which may be respired continuously without noticeable effect. (Henderson, Yandell, et al--Journal. Ind. Hyg. Vol. 3, 1921). Carbon monoxide frequently has been found present in quantities much
greater than four parts per ten thousand in the atmosphere of garages and the like, and so far, adequate ventilation is the only remedy known. It is obvious that, chemically, ozone has nothing to offer for carbon monoxide correction, since the reaction is, at best, slow in the absence of a catalyst, and a molecular concentration of ozone comparable with a lethal concentration of CO, would produce quite as much physical distress as the carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is the index of good garage ventilation; this factor may be favorable and still an odoriferous condition, causing minor distress, may attain. Here ozone is of value, but it must be used with judgment, and does not permit of a curtailment of any of the ordinary CO precautions. Ozone and ionized air may possibly have some physiological effect on the haemoglobin, which may cause a shift, in selectivity, in favor of oxygen, but to date knowledge on
this subject is not available.
The Production of Ozone The air actually passed through an ozone generator should be free from
water vapor, dust and gases normally foreign to the atmosphere. Rideal (Ozone, D. Van Nostrand) states that a RH of 25 per cent, at a dry bulb temperature of 20 deg. Cent., limits the yield of ozone 60 to 70 per cent of that which would be produced with dry air, other conditions being equal.
The vapor content of air to be ozonized should not exceed 0.1 grains per
cubic foot, for the best results.
.
The presence of sulphur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, chlorine, etc.,
appreciably reduces the efficiency of an ozonizer. Ammonia gas, should
it be admitted to the ozone generator in appreciable quantities, may cause
anTehxeplporseiosenn. ce of dust favors the passage of sparks, which cause thermal decomposition of the ozone, and adds- to the formation of oxides of nitrogen. Ozone generators are now generally supplied with an air filter.
Sparking and "creeping discharges," which frequently form at the edges of the electrodes, should be prevented by the proper design of the
electrode members. ',.
..
The rate of decomposition of ozone is greatly accelerated at high
temperatures, therefore, ozonizers should be operated with a minimum temperature rise. At room temperatures the rate of decomposition is
neDgluigeibtloe.the catalyt.ic effects on the decomposition of ozone, inherent in commercial ozonizers, there is a decided limiting concentration at which ozone may be produced. As a rough approximation, it may be stated
444
Chapter XXX--Ozone in Ventilation
that the rate of decomposition is proportional to the concentration of ozone. Thus, the energy necessary to produce high concentrations is much greater than that required to produce the same weight of ozone in a more dilute state. The rate of air flow, to energy input, determines the concentration; therefore, air flow is a very important factor in ozonizer'
design. However, it must be pointed out that the yield does not increase indefinitely, with increasing air flow; and since the power required to dry the air is considerable, in relation to the power required to produce the quantities of ozone used in ventilation, it becomes necessary to strike a compromise between these two costs, in order to obtain the lowest gross cost of production.
Hill and Aeberly (Heating and Ventilating Magazine, December, 1921) have published graphs showing the relation between yield of ozone and air flow, while Hartman {Ice & Refrigeration, November and December, 1924) has given a detailed analysis of this factor, in the terms of dollars
and cents.
.
Analysis of Ozone-Air Mixtures
Ozone, in air, is best determined quantitatively by iodimetric titration. Of the numerous methods, for the quantitative determination of ozone, that have been advanced from time to time, none combine as high an order of accuracy - with simplicity of technique, as does this standard method, the technique of which is familiar to all chemists or may be found in any textbook of volumetric analysis. A few precautions, not ordinarily described in standard textbooks, should be observed when applying this method to ozone determinations (See Hartman, F. E., Analysis of OzoneAir Mixtures, Aerologist, August, 1926.) `
As the output of an ozonizer can be. very closely controlled by the manufacturer, it is recommended that the output be checked, when desired, by an analysis of the ozonized air coming directly from the ozonizer, thus eliminating the errors inherent in fan deliveries, leakage, etc., which may be addative, and of sufficient magnitude to give quite an erroneous idea of the performance of the ozonizer.
It is frequently desirable to determine the concentration of ozone actually produced in the spaces for which the ventilation is intended. Such concentrations are generally of the order of 0.01 ppm minimum, to about 0.5 ppm maximum, and are without the range of accuracy of the standard iodimetric method. A fairly accurate, and comparatively simple, method for determination of concentrations of this order has been devised by Yant, Jones & Houghten, which is described in detail in the Transactions, A. S. H. & V. E., Vol. 29, p. 331 et seq., 1923.
. Periodical checks of the actual.output of the ozonizer, together with a check of the concentration established in the ventilated spaces should be fruitful of exceedingly interesting and suggestive data.
Determining Proper Concentration
The concentration of ozone in the air of ventilated spaces, should not be allowed to rise appreciably above 0.01 ppm. However, this does not s mean that this is the. proper concentration to introduce. The quantity of ozone necessary to maintain this concentration will depend upon, what has been aptly termed "respiratory load," or cubic feet of air, per person,
445
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
per unit of time; together with a consideration of such odoriferous
operations as may exist in the ventilated spaces, and the purity of the ' source of air supply. Thus air drawn from near the level of the city
streets will require more ozone to maintain the proper concentration, than will air drawn from purer sources. This applies equally to air drawn from
the vicinity of stock yards and the like.
, Likewise restaurants, smoking rooms, dance halls, and theatres will
require a greater quantity of ozone than will schools, offices, etc. Depart ment stores, particularly the basements, due to odors arising from fabrics
and other wares, require special consideration. There is also what may be called the "building coefficient," which includes the length of the duct system, the heights of the ceilings, and the condition of the venti
lating system, whether old and dusty or new and clean, together with the rate of air change, and whether humidity, control is provided or not.
In industrial ventilation, where specific contaminants are to be con tended with, a knowledge of the concentration and character of the
contaminating substances is essential for best results. Ozone is not a cure-all for industrial odors in general, for instance, allyl alcohol vapors,
which possess an annoying odor, when subjected to action with ozone, produce the aldehyde acrolein, which is exceedingly irritating, even in
very small concentrations. Here harm rather than good will be done. It is best to submit problems of this character to engineers experienced in
the use of ozone for definite recommendations.
It has been recommended (Hill & Aeberly, Heating and Ventilating Magazine, March, 1922) that sufficient ozone capacity be provided to permit of building up comparatively high concentrations when the building is not occupied. In schools, for example, the ozone equipment should be operated at a capacity to give perhaps 0.01 ppm of ozone when the building is- occupied, and after the pupils have left the building, the
full capacity of the machine should be used, closing all openings, recircu lating the entire amount of air, and building up a sufficient concentration to exert the maximum deodorizing effect throughout the building, the
duct work and mechanical equipment.
For general ventilation, under average conditions (85 per cent ventila-
tioii), the ozonizer should be of sufficient capacity to provide a concen tration of 0.05 ppm of ozone in the fan volume. For 100 per cent ventilat
ing systems a lesser quantity can be made to suffice. A generalization cannot be made broad enough to cover the many special conditions,
particularly problems of specific deodorization.
Determining Required Capacity
Having chosen the maximum required concentration of ozone, for the purpose in hand, it becomes necessary to calculate the capacity of the ozonizer. There seems to be no agreement, among makers of ozone' equipment, regarding the unit of rating for ventilating ozonizers. There are three methods in common use, as.follows:
. Parts per Million: wherein the ozonizer is rated in parts per million (generally, by volume) in some specific air volume. At first this may seem a very desirable method for rating ozonizers, as it is simply necessary to state the ppm of ozone, required for the specific CFM of air. Ozonizers so rated, have their ozone meter calibrated in ppm for the specified CFM, and should the fan volume be varied, the meter is liable to become
446
XXX--Chapter
Ozone in Ventilation
misleading, as the original CFM may not always be considered when reading it. Con
sideration of the original CFM, and proportioning to any nevy CFM, is essential with
. an ozonier so rated, if accurate knowledge of the concentration employed at any other
CFM is desired.
.
Ozone is generally applied on the basis of ppm by volume, and as there is no existing
agreement concerning a standard temperature and pressure at which the ozonizer should be calibrated, this method of rating leaves the actual capacity of the unit open
to question, unless the temperature and pressure employed for calibrating is stated. Since weight is unaffected by temperature and pressure, and as ozone is determined chemically, directly in the terms of weight, weight forms a better basis for the rating of ozonizers, and eliminates a number of qualifying factors, together with tedious calculations in ozonizer design.
Milligrams per Minute: Ozonizers so rated have their ozone meter calibrated directly
in the terms of milligrams per minute, and leave no questions concerning the actual
capacity of the unit. Errors of omission are further circumvented by forcing a con
sideration of all factors, when determining the concentration of ozone in the air of the
ventilating system.
The expression ppm, generally means parts per million by volume at room temperature and average barometric pressure, when referred to ozone in ventilation. One litre of ozone at 25 deg. Cent, and 740 mm Hg, weighs 1.9127 grams. Taking these conditions as a basis, the weight of 1 cc. of ozone may be taken as 2 milligrams, yielding a very convenient figure for use, easily remembered, and sufficiently accurate lor all practical purposes. The metric system is best employed here, for convenience of analysis and calculations of design, with final conversion into English units for purpose of application. It is on this basis that the following formulae have been derived:

It is a compound unit, taking into consideration quantity and time. It is analagous to

As the VU represents a definite weight of ozone, in a definite period of time, ozonizers so rated leave no question as to their actual capacity. The decimal character of the unit admits of much facility in calculations.
WATER PURIFICATION
Ozone finds a very important application in the purification of water.
Operating costs rarely exceed an energy expenditure of 500 watt-hours per
thousand gallons.
Ozone successfully eliminates odors and tastes of organic origin,
particularly the tastes and odors due to excessive chlorination, and the
presence of chlorinated phenols and tarry substances. Organic colors are
bleached, and the effluent of a properly designed ozonizer is practically
sterile.
.
The essentials of a good water ozonizer are an adequate and constant
supply of ozone, in sufficiently high concentrations to effect high solubility
at normal temperatures, adequate mixing of the ozonized air and water,
under conditions.which produce maximum diffusion and absorption, and
over a sufficient period of time to effect sterilization. The control should
provide under and over voltage release, together with a release for water
pressures too low to efficiently operate the mixing device.
INDUSTRIAL USES
Ozone finds a number of applications as an oxidizing agent, in industrial operations, many of which are of little interest in ventilation. However, ozone may be used to accelerate the drying of paints and varnishes, the "oxidation" of drying oils, and many other drying operations involving oxidation. Such problems are generally 'specific, and it is advisable to consult the manufacturers of ozone equipment concerning them.
COLD STORAGE .
/`
Ozone is of value in cold storage for the prevention of mould develop
ment, deodorizing of storage spaces, after removal of odoriferous products,
to prepare for other commodities. The preservation of flavor, particularly
in eggs, and the general freshening and vitalizing of the air, the advantage
of which is reflected by the superior condition of products stored in "fresh"
air over those stored in "dead" air.

DEFINITION OF TERMS
DRYING is usually understood to mean the removal of moisture (usually water) by evaporation. In its broader sense, it includes such processes as dessication, concentration, distillation, ordation, baking and calcining. In this discussion the term drying will be limited to the removal of moisture by evaporation.
The material to be dried may be in a liquid, plastic or solid form. In the case of substances containing an excessive amount of free water, the evaporating process is often preceded by the removal of a part of the water by such-methods as gravitational settling, filtration, condensation, absorption by contact with dry materials, or mechanical extraction with presses or centrifuges.
NATURAL DRYING
In natural drying, evaporation is obtained by utilizing the sensible heat of air at ordinary temperatures (air drying), or by exposure to the radiant heat of the sun (sun drying), or by a combination of the two. For many industrial processes, natural drying is either unsatisfactory or uneco nomical.
Artificial drying produces evaporation artificially by supplying heat to the material either (1) by contact with surfaces heated by combustion, steam, hot.water, heated oil, electricity, or latent heat of condensation, (2) by radiation directly to the material from a heated surface, or (3) through a current of heated air, superheated steam, or other gas, such as products of combustion, passing over or through the material. Evapo ration may occur either at the boiling point, in a saturated atmosphere, or at a temperature below the boiling point. In the latter case, the vapor pressure of the surrounding atmosphere must be maintained below the vapor pressure of the liquid in the material through some means of pro ducing a circulation of air and vapor and of removing the evaporated moisture from the air. Where products of combustion can be used, a particularly high overall efficiency of the dryer is possible.
Radiant heat, transferred to the material by direct radiation from heated surfaces, is sometimes used to supplement the heat supplied by

air currents or gases. About one-third to one-half of the heat given off by a radiating surface passes through the air to the object which is to be dried, without materially raising the air temperature. The remaining portion of the heat from the radiator warms the air by convection and produces warm air currents which assist in the removal of the moisture. From five to fifteen times as much radiating surface is required for radiant heat as would be needed to heat the same amount of material by heated air currents, so that this method is limited to those operations where the advantages of radiant heat will offset the higher first cost of the equipment.
TYPES OF DRYERS
Film dryers are used for drying thick liquids, pastes and semi-pastes.
A thin film of the material is spread over heated cylinders, usually heated
by steam and the dry product is scraped off with a knife scraper into a
conveyor or receptacle. '
Agitator dryers of the rotary or pan type are used for drying sludges,
slimes and fine powders. The material is kept in a continual state of
movement or agitation by means of revolving blades or scrapers and by
the rotation of the cylindrical container in the case of the rotaiy dryers.
Heat is transferred to the material either directly by contact with steam jacketed casings or rotating steam pipes attached to the agitators or
indirectly by passing heated air or gases through the rotary cylinder.
Agitator dryers of the hearth or trough types as well as the rotary type
are used for drying organic waste products. These granular materials
are also dried in vertical dryers, in which the material drops more or less
vertically through currents of heated air either with or without contact
with heated surfaces.
.
Cylinder dryers are used in drying flexible material in long lengths
such as textile fabrics of all kinds, paper and fiber board products. Heat
is transferred to the material by direct contact with a series of steam
heated cylinders.
Vacuum dryers are adapted to liquids, pastes or finely divided granular
materials of a delicate nature such as valuable food products which must
be dried rapidly at low temperatures in order to preserve flavors and
other properties which might be impaired if the drying were done at the higher temperatures necessary with atmospheric pressures. Heat must
be supplied to the material either by conduction in contact with a heater
container, which is the usual method, or by direct radiation, either from
the heated walls or shelves of the container or from the radiating surfaces
within the container. The vapor is removed by means of condensers in
the vacuum line. Some materials containing only 2 to 3 per cent moisture
are first heated before being put in a vacuum chamber. When the
vacuum is pulled, the heat vaporizes the moisture and becomes latent,
thus cooling the material at the same time.
Spray dryers are used for the drying of thick liquids including any
product in solution, suspension, or emulsion. The liquid is first con
densed to from 35 to 50 per cent solid content and is then atomized in
the form of a fine spray which is distributed in a current of air, heated
to a considerably higher temperature than would be used for the same
material in a contact dryer. The moisture in the material is vaporized
450
Chapter XXXI--Methods of Drying
almost instantly, leaving a dry flour-like powder which falls to the bottom
of the dryer. The spraying is done by atomizing nozzles worked either
by the pressure of the liquid or by compressed air, or by whirling plates
or rotating beaters.
'.
,
Tumbler dryers are used for drying camp clothing and similar articles. The material is revolved in an open cylinder covered with wire or per forated sheet metal through which a current of heated air is blown;
Air current driers, of either the continuous or charge type, are used for drying material in masses of considerable thickness or size and having a close or open texture and a cellular, granular or fibrous structure. The material is placed on trays, trucks or moving conveyors inside of a room like enclosure and heated by contact with warm air currents which also serve to carry away the evaporated moisture. Drying of this sort is sometimes called "air-processing." The air is warmed, either by direct mixture with furnace gases or by contact with surfaces heated either by direct flame, flue gases, steam or hot water. The source of heat may be either "direct"--located within the dryer, usually in the form of wall coils, floor coils, or distributed coils--or "indirect," the air being heated by radiators outside the dryer and circulated through the dryer by fans and distributing ducts. .
Continuous and Intermittent Dryers
Dryers are called continuous or progressive when a minor portion of the charge is removed and a like portion admitted at more or less regular intervals or in a continuous flow. Continuous dryers are used whenever there is a sufficiently steady production to keep the dryer functioning at. approximately full capacity and whenever the duration of the drying period is less than 6 hours or more than 24 hours.
Liquids are adapted to continuous dryers of the film or spray type. Sludges; organic wastes and loose granular materials are dried in continous dryers of the agitator variety including hearth, rotary, pan and trough types. Flexible materials in long lengths are dried continuously on cylinder;;dryers, while room dryers of the tunnel type are used for bulky products placed on movable trays, trucks, or endless conveyors. For heavy materials, such as lumber, handled on trucks, the rails in the tunnel.are often sloped toward the discharge end in the ratio of from 1 in 60 to 1 in 100 to obtain the benefit of gravity in moving the material.
Continous tunnel dryers do not lend themselves to exact control of drying conditions for the following reasons: variation in the amount of evaporation from the material, irregularity of charging and discharging and the opening and closing of doors permitting heat to escape and outside air to enter thus effecting the temperatures and humidities in the dryer.
Intermittent or charge dryers are charged in one operation and dis charged again after the drying is completed. Vacuum dryers and room dryers of the compartment type are the principal kind of dryers operated in this manner. Compartment dryers consist of an enclosure in which the material is arranged on trays or trucks or in piles in such a way that currents of heated air pass over the surfaces. The material is usually stationary but is sometimes shifted in position or kept in motion for greater uniformity and speed of drying.
451

MOISTURE CONTENT CALCULATIONS
Moisture content is usually expressed as a percentage of the original combined weight of the material and its contained water. Thus, if the moisture content were 20 per cent, the dry material would weigh 80 per cent of the total weight. In drying some types of material, notably lumber, it is customary to use the "bone-dry" or water-free weight of the material as the divisor (100 per cent), the weight of the water being calculated as a percentage of this dry weight.
Regain is practically always expressed by the latter method, as a per centage of the water-free weight of the material.
Moisture Transfusion and Gradient
The rapidity with which evaporation can be carried on at the surface of a material depends upon the rate of transfusion or movement of water from the interior to the surface. This is particularly important with thick, bulky, solid substances such as clay and lumber in which the rate of transfusion is slow and which shrink with loss of moisture; In drying material of this kind, the rate of evaporation must be retarded by the use of high humidities in order to prevent too rapid drying and shrinkage of the surface, with consequent case-hardening rupture or distortion of the material. At the same time, internal transfusion must be stimulated by the use of as a high a temperature as the material will stand. At any given temperature, the rate of transfusion varies inversely as the thick ness of the material, therefore the minimum time for drying varies approximately as the square of the thickness of the material. See low temperature drying for a discussion of case-hardening.
What is known as the moisture gradient, between the moisture content at the center of the material and the moisture content close to the surface, is determined by the rate of evaporation at the surface and the rate of transfusion from the center outward. In drying hygroscopic or colloidal materials, good drying practice ordinarily requires that this gradient be held within a narrow range in order to avoid case-hardening or damage due to rapid shrinkage of the surface of the material.
With every material having hygroscopic properties, a point of equi librium is reached at any given temperature between the vapor pressure of the moisture in the air and the vapor pressure of the moisture in the material. In rapid artificial drying at high temperatures, an extremely low moisture content is often produced in the material which is below its natural equilibrium moisture content (E. M. C.) in ordinary air. The percentage of moisture that it re-absorbs from the air is sometimes called the regain. It varies with the relative humidity of the air and decreases to some extent as the temperature increases.
High Temperature Drying
In what is known as high temperature drying, temperatures range from 212 to 1000 deg. fahr. or more. Since these temperatures are above the boiling point, all of the water in the material will vaporize quickly at atmospheric pressures- and the humidity of the air becomes of minor importance.
452
Chapter XXXI--Methods of Drying
Within the critical limits, many materials produce better results if dried quickly at maximum temperatures than if dried more slowly at lower temperatures. It is important to remove products of oxidation as well as explosive or inflammable gases as quickly as possible, by means of ample circulation. Agitator fans within the dryer are often used in high temperature work to create the necessary velocity for close contact without moving an excessive volume of air. In drying with temperatures above the boiling point, it makes little difference whether the superheated vehicle is gas, air or steam. Static electricity which sometimes accu mulates with hot dry air and makes powders and fabrics difficult to handle, may often be controlled with a small steam spray. Many ma terials dried at high temperatures are soft when removed from the dryer and must be hardened in air that is warm enough and dry enough to prevent sweating and moulding.
Low Temperature Drying
Air processing at temperatures below 200 deg. fahr., involves control of both the temperature and the relative humidity of the air, as well as the velocity and uniformity of circulation. Regulation is governed so that evaporation from the surface is allowed to proceed only as fast as moisture transfuses from the interior of the material, after allowing a safe moisture gradient to be set up.
In the early stages, when the material contains a considerable amount
of free water, a relative humidity of between 80 and 90 per cent is usually
called for, with a comparatively low temperature in the case of materials
of cellular structure which are liable to collapse if allowed to become too
hot when still very moist. At these high humidities, a rapid and uniform
circulation is essential to secure uniform drying and the housing of the
dryer must be well insulated in order to prevent condensation on the
material and on the inner surfaces of -the dryer, particularly the ceiling
and air ducts.
'
_
As the drying proceeds, successive changes in the moisture content and
condition of the thicker arid more exacting materials call for gradual
increases in temperature and decreases in humidity until the final stage
is reached. This is usually a somewhat lower moisture content than
equilibrium under conditions, of use, to allow for enough regain to balance
the moisture remaining in the interior and surface to a uniform condition.
For every temperature there is a certain humidity which will dry the
material to a certain point and then stop. It is usually undesirable to
allow the drying to proceed much beyond the equilibrium point of the
material in use, as over-drying is liable to produce undesirable physical
changes in the material, and such over-drying also unnecessarily prolongs
the time.and increases the cost of the operation. - .
.
Uncontrolled humidity is also liable to cause excessively rapid drying of the surface of the material in the early stages. This produces a con dition known as "case-hardening," the material being encased in a dry layer which it is difficult for the interior moisture to work through. In this way the drying operation is retarded and may, in some cases, be entirely stopped and replaced by a baking operation. Another harmful result in materials subject to shrinkage, such as wood and clay, is that the case-hardened surface is dried and stiffened or "set" in an expanded
453
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
condition which is later apt to restrict the normal shrinkage of the interior
and cause internal rupture and distortion.
.
Raising the temperature of air increases its capacity to hold moisture
and correspondingly lowers its relative humidity and increases its drying
power. The moisture holding capacity of the air at atmospheric pressure
and representative temperatures is given below:
" ''

It is seen from the table that if saturated outdoor air on a rainy day, containing 5.8 grains of moisture per cubic foot at a temperature of
60 deg. fahr., is heated to 180 deg. fahr., its moisture holding capacity per cubic foot will be increased approximately 24 times and its relative humidity will be reduced from 100 per cent to 4 per cent. The result at 180 deg. fahr., would have been practically the same, no matter what the humidity of the outdoor air happened to be, and it is for this reason that
outdoor humidities are of comparatively small importance in designing air processing, equipment in which temperatures of 140 deg. or higher
are to be used. In such dryers, any outside air is potentially very dry when heated to the temperature at which it is to be used.
For many exacting materials, the increased capacity of the air at higher ' temperatures must be offset, to a large extent, by the increased humidity
required to prevent rapid surface drying. In order to maintain this increased humidity and counteract the effect of outside air entering the dryer, it is often necessary to add moisture to the air in the dryer to
supplement what evaporates from the material. This is usually done with steam sprays although in some cases, evaporating pans, water sprays or
atomizers are used.
.
Circulation-of Air Currents
\
The velocity of circulating air currents must be fast enough to transfer
to the surface of the material all of the heat required, for evaporation.
At the same time, it must also be sufficient to carry away the water
vapor. The volume necessary for this purpose will correspond roughly
to the volume needed for heat transfer. A third requirement is that the
velocity should be sufficient to carry away the film or layer of nearly
saturated air that is apt to hug the evaporating surface,; and whose high
vapor pressure retards further evaporation.
,/
Circulation is expressed either by the rate of air flow over the material per minute or by the number of air changes in the dryer per minute or per hour. The former is the logical method as it expresses positive drying
454
Chapter XXXI--Methods of Drying
power while the latter may be misleading, because of short-circuiting of some of the moving air without coming in contact with the material.
When air is saturated (at any temperature), the water vapor which it contains weighs 0.623 times as much as the air it has displaced. It follows, then, that the higher the relative humidity (that is, the greater the pro portion of air that has been displaced by water vapor) the lighter will be the mixture of air and vapor.
Natural Draft
.
Circulation by convection, due to the rising tendency of heated air and the falling tendency of cooled air, is the only means of circulation in many of the older and simpler types of dryers. Dryers of this kind give best results with fairly high temperatures and low humidities and are adapted to drying material which will stand a considerable variation in temperature and humidity conditions without injury.
In natural draft dryers the moisture evaporated is usually allowed to escape through ventilators, to be replaced by fresh air. This means that a large amount of only partially saturated warm air is allowed to escape giving this type of equipment a low thermal efficiency. Where coldwater coils or sprays are used for moisture removal, a somewhat higher efficiency is obtained. Natural draft dryers are sensitive to changes in outside wind and weather and the temperature and humidity conditions within the dryer usually vary within a wide range since such variation is necessary in order to obtain enough difference in .specific gravity to produce a vigorous circulation.
The direction of natural air currents is difficult to control; they often short-circuit from one part of the dryer to another, leaving portions of the material surrounded by stagnant air of low drying power. In some designs, this is partly overcome by the use of baffles and ducts for guiding the air and by the use of water sprays or steam jets placed at certain points for the double purpose of increasing the velocity of the air as well as adding to its humidity. Tunrtel dryers are better adapted to a natural draft circulation than are compartment or charge type dryers. The desirability of maintaining higher temperature and lower humidities at one end of the tunnel than at the other creates a rising circulation at one end and.a'falling circulation at the other which produces a general end wise circulation of air through the dryer. The higher the temperature
and the longer the tunnel, the greater will be the volume and velocity of air movement.
In most dryers of the tunnel type the flow of air is opposite to the flow
of material, or counter-current. The freshly-heated air, at maximum
temperature, comes in contact with material in the final stage of drying
at the discharge end where high heat is needed and can be safely used.
This air then works its way back through the dryer to the charging end,
losing heat and picking up evaporated moisture, thus giving a graduated
range of conditions suited to the different stages of drying. Such dryers
arq often designed to create a sidewise as well as endwise movement of
the air for more uniform drying. The internal circulation is usually aided
by placing ventilating chimneys at the charging end of the dryer, to draw
the moist air in that direction.

Mechanical circulation is produced either by blowers of the centrif ugal type outside of the dryer, or by multiple fans of the propeller type inside the dryer, or by a combination of the two.
In some designs, the general volume movement is taken care of by an external blower and the velocity over the surface of the material is obtained from internal fans, placed to furnish a transverse circulation. In any mechanical system, it is important to secure as high a volume of recirculation in the dryer as possible, as this adds to the thermal effi ciency and cuts down power cost.
Mechanical systems are best suited to rapid drying under close control of both temperature and humidity and may be designed with automatic control instruments so as to hold the temperature within a range of 2 deg. fahr., and the humidity within a range of 4 per cent relative hu midity. Indirect heaters of high efficiency are usually placed in the blower ducts and humidity is controlled either by steam jets, air washers or refrigerating coils in the duct system or steam sprays in the dryer itself. In such dryers, a higher thermal efficiency may be obtained by the use of interchangers, by which the saturated air from the washers is partially heated by absorption of heat from the warm, moist air returning from the dryer.
MOISTURE REMOVAL
More or less of the moisture evaporated from the material is taken care of by loss of warm moist air, either through leakage or ventilators, and corresponding influx of outside air, either by infiltration or through special openings for the purpose. It is a mistake to attempt to obtain a practically saturated condition of the leaving air, as this is apt to slow down the speed of drying and cause undesirable condensation in the moist air ventilators or ducts returning to the blower, A saturation of from 50 to 75 per cent is usually as high as can be obtained without sacrificing speed.
ESTIMATING HEAT AND AIR VOLUME REQUIRED
It is necessary to figure 2Yi lb. of steam furnished to the dryer, per pound of water to be evaporated, although under the most favorable conditions of high thermal efficiency, 2 lb. of steam is sufficient. In very slow drying of thick, bulky materials such as lumber, it may require as much as 10 lb. of steam per pound of wdter evaporated.
The temperature will drop approximately 8J/2 deg. fahr. per grain of water evaporated per cubic foot of air (measured at 70 deg. fahr.) or approximately 0.62 deg. fahr. per pound of air at any temperature. Approximate calculations may be based on air volume, but for exact determinations, the weight of the air should be used, since the weight is a fixed quantity at any temperature.
CONTROL OF THE DRYING OPERATION
.
The wet bulb temperature is far more important, in determining the moisture absorbing power of the air, than the dry bulb temperature.
456
. Chapter XXXI--Methods of Drying
In drying very wet materials, the material takes the temperature of the wet bulb. This is important in rapid drying with hot, dry air, as the wet bulb temperature in such a case, is the only temperature that need be kept below the critical temperature limits of the material.
The higher the temperature, other things being equal, the faster will the moisture in the material transfuse to the surface, and the faster will the drying operation proceed. Hot water passes through the material more rapidly than cold water both because of its increased vapor pressure as well as its decreased viscosity. Increasing surface evaporation by greater circulation at low temperatures does not produce faster drying unless a corresponding increase in the rate of transfusion is obtained.
Several types of automatic thermostatic control instruments are avail able for controlling both the temperature and humidity of the air in the dryer. For many types of dryers, hand operation of valves as determined by periodic reading of thermometers and hygrometers is all that is required for good results. In other cases, such crude control would result in serious losses of material. In some operations, time controllers are used which automatically alter the conditions according to a pre determined schedule and finally bring the drying operation to a close. With other dryers, regulation is obtained in accordance with loss in weight of samples of the material suspended on sensitized scales within the dryer, the drying being automatically terminated when the samples reach the desired degree of dryness.
Extremely sensitive materials may be dried successfully in air which is kept in a continued state of practical saturation. This can be done either if the material is warmer than the surrounding air, in which case it must be heated by conduction or radiation, or if a certain amount of condensation is taking place in the surrounding air which will permit a corresponding evaporation from the material. '
Suitable facilities should be provided for sampling and testing the material, and watching the conditions within the dryer. Systematic record forms are usually desirable for recording the movement of material, the length of the drying period, the temperatures and humidities at critical points in the dryer, and other operating data. Standard schedules of drying time and drying conditions for material of different thickness and moisture content are also very useful in estimating production and regu lating the operation of the dryer.
DRYER ARRANGEMENT AND CONSTRUCTION
' Outside handling and storage space is usually -an important considera tion in dryer design. Continuous dryers have an advantage in this respect since they provide storage for a considerable proportion of the material in process, while for charge dryers enough outside space must be provided to handle at least one full charge awaiting the diyer and one full charge upon removal. The more rapid the drying operation, the more'efficient must be the handling facilities, in order to hold operating costs to a minimum and keep the dryer operating at maximum capacity.
An important consideration in construction is to provide tight, wellinsulated doors which can be opened and closed easily, with minimum

labor and loss of time. Fire resistance of doors is also important, in case of outside exposure to fife'risks. Insurance rates must be considered in their relation to fire protective arrangements such as automatic sprinklers, fire doors and walls, steam jets for use in smothering fires that may start inside the dryer, etc. Ceilings of dryers should be as flat as possible and the space between the material and the walls and ceiling should be held to a minimum. .A factor often overlooked is suitable provision for ventilation of the space around the dryer openings so that warm moist air which may escape from the dryer when the doors are opened may be carried away before it has a chance to condense on the ceiling or windows of the building in which the dryer is located or into which it opens. Convenient arrangements for the operator should also be provided where tests can be made, records kept, and clothes changed, in case it is neces sary for the operator to work inside the dryer.
SPECIAL PROBLEMS
Practically every problem in air processing and drying presents its individual considerations which affect the over-all efficiency of the final installation. The peculiarities of the material to be dried, the allowable temperature and humidities, the most efficient means of handling the material, the speed with which the process must be effected, and the mechanical or physical limitations imposed by the plant conditions them selves are all factors' which must be carefully considered in the design of air processing and.drying equipment.
The selection of the type and size of dryer, the method of heat supply,
the method of moisture removal, the location and layout of the equip
ment with reference to handling the material to best advantage, are prob
lems which may require a different solution for each installation. Engi
neers who specialize in the design of drying equipment have found it
best to treat each case individually and develop a design and arrangement
that will most nearly meet the specific requirements on the basis of
research and experience.
.
Drying is an extraordinarily interesting problem in engineering, and thousands of the products that are in common use every day go through some sort of-drying process during their manufacture. Wood when dried becomes 'a workable and dependable material, the leather used in shoes must submit to the drying operation, and the manner of its drying determines its value in the finished product. Clay when dried becomes ceramic ware, flour mixed with water when dried becomes macaroni, wood pulp dried becomes paper and gelatine dried and sensitized becomes photographic film. All textiles require the drying process at some time during their manufacture so that it is easy to see why the handling of each is a special problem.

CHAPTER XXXII
DUST, EXHAUST AND COLLECTING SYSTEMS
Types of Systems, Air Velocity, Sire of Connections, Suction at Hoods, Resistance of Conveyor Pipes, Fan Selection, Collectors.
PNEUMATIC exhaust and collecting systems may be classified in various ways. They may be classified by the economic purpose to be accomplished by the industries served, or by the type of system used.
Classifying exhaust systems by industries served, they fall in sub divisions such as, metal working, woodworking, leather and shoe manu facturing, rubber industry, flint grinding, pottery works, pulverizing works, celluloid manufacturing, printing establishments, felt hatting and fur manufacturing, textile mills, grain and cereal industry, etc.
TYPES OF SYSTEMS
.
The type of exhaust system to be used is determined by the industry served, kind of material handled, and the work to be accomplished. There are two general arrangements; the central and the group systems. In the central system a single or double fan is located near the center of the shop with a piping system radiating to the various machines to be served. In the group system, which is sometimes employed where the machines to be served are widely scattered, small individual exhaust fans are located at the center of the machine groups.
The group arrangement has the advantage of flexibility.
Exhaust systems are'also classified, by the means employed to collect
dust or other material handled. The dust or refuse, may be collected and
controlled by enclosing hoods, open hoods, inward' air leakage or general
room exhaustion.
.....
With some classes of machinery it is not feasible to closely hood the machines and in these cases open hoods over or adjacent to the machines are provided to collect as much of dust and fumes arising as .possible. In this class come such machines as rubber mills, package filling ma chinery, sand blast, crushers, forges, pickling tanks, melting furnaces, and the unloading points of various types of conveyors. ,
The open hoods should be placed as close to the source of dust or
fumes as possible with due regard to the movements of the operator.
_ When the hood has to be placed at some distance above the machine it should be large enough to encompass an area of considerable extent as diffusion is usually quite rapid.
Consideration must also be given to the natural movement of the fumes. For those that are lighter than air the hood should be over or

above the machine and where a heavy vapor or dust-laden air at ordinary
temperature is to be removed, horizontal or floor connections are re
quired. If it is attempted to remove heavy dust such as lead oxides by
an overhead hood the conditions may be worse than if no exhaust were
used at all, owing to the rising air current carrying the dust up through
the breathing zones. The principle to keep in mind in all cases is to take
advantage of the natural tendency of the material to move upward or
downward.
.
..
In another class of operation the main object is to prevent the escape
of dustinto the surrounding atmosphere, the removal of some dust from
the machine or enclosure being merely incidental. The dust creating
apparatus is enclosed within a housing which is made as tight as prac
ticable, and sufficient suction is applied to the enclosure to maintain, an
inward air leakage, thus preventing escape of the. dust. While the ex
haust system is only required to handle the air which leaks in through
the crevices and openings in the enclosure,' yet in many 'installations
leakages are very high and great care is required to obtain satisfactory
results with a system of this kind. The inward leakage principle is utilized
for controlling dust in the operating of tumblingbarrels, grinding, screen
ing, elevating and similar processes.
Certain dust and fume producing operations are test carried on by
isolating the process in a separate compartment or room and then apply
ing general ventilation to this space. The compartment or room in
which the work is performed should be as small as is consistent with
convenience in handling the work. The ventilating system should be
designed so that a strong current of Clean air is drawn across the operator,
and away- from him toward the work, where the dust is picked up and
carried from the room.

,
IMPORTANT REQUIREMENTS OF AN EFFICIENT EXHAUST AND COLLECTING SYSTEM
It is impracticable to enumerate all of the requirements for an efficient exhaust and collecting system, however, among the more important
are the following: .
1. Fans, collectors, hoods, and ducts should be of adequate size. ' 2. Air volume and velocities should be adequate for the work to be accomplished.
3. The exhaust hoods should not interfere with the operation of the machine or
access to its working parts.
4. The system should not increase the fire'hazard.
5. The system should not increase the dust explosion hazard.
6. Where power is expensive, it should do the required work with a minimum
power consumption.
7. In cold climates, it should not remove any more air than necessary, from the
building.
' 8. Where-power is comparatively cheap, first cost should be low, even if the power
required to operate is slightly higher.
'
The first step in designing systems employing hoods to trap the material is to determine the number and size of the connections for each individual
machine. At this point the designer's past experience is of great value,' as, while it is possible to set certain general standards, yet in actual practice the sizes are considerably affected by the local conditions which the
462
l Chapter XXXII--Dust, Exhaust and Collecting Systems
'
layout man finds in the field, and he bases the pipe sizes and hoods'on his: judgment, being guided by his experience and die general practice.'
The size of hoods and connections are determined by the size and type of machines or apparatus to be handled by the exhaust system, by the kind of material worked, by the duty of the machines and other local conditions. It is impracticable to lay down any general, rules for de termining size connections for the various types of machines and Tables 1 to 3, giving sizes as used in some of the common industries are only intended to serve as a general guide. Under certain favorable conditions smaller connections may be supplied.
Open bottom exhaust hoods of the canopy type, where it is impractical to enclose completely the point of origin of the dust or fumes, should' extend over the machine or operation at least 12 in. in every direction if the hood is not elevated more than 2 ft. For each -additional 2 ft. of elevation, the size of the hood should be increased 12 in. in all directions;
It is.desirable to make the area of the connecting pipe not less than TS
of the total hood area.
. .. . .
In systems employing inward air leakages the area of connections
must be proportional to total leakage area in, the enclosing housing. :
Tumbling barrels have connections ranging from 4 to-8 in., bucket con
veyors 6jto 12 in., and screening machines 6 to 10 in.. \ '
'
In general room exhaust large connections should be provided so that
the air: may be handled at low velocity and with a minimum power con
sumption.
' '
'-
After having determined on the proportions of the exhaust system as
regards hoods and connections it is then necessary to choose the air
velocity or suction at the hood connections, suction at the hood con
nections being a measure of the air velocity at that point.
,
' AIR VELOCITY
The air velocity required is dependent upon the specific gravity of the material, the fineness of the particles, and their physical characteristics.
Certain materials such as grease wools, silk waste, salt, and other hydro
scopic substances are difficult to handle due to the tendency to deposit in the conveyor pipes. .
While the velocity in the system should be sufficiently high to insure the removal of the material it should be kept as low as practicable since
any higher velocity requires the use of unnecessary power. With a fixed system or orifice the power increases as the cube of the increase in velocity, or'for the same quantity of air and material handled^ inversely as the fifth power of the diameter of round ducts.
Velocities commonly employed are: 2500 to,3000 ft. per minute.for
light dusts, cotton, shavings and sawdust from dry wood, and similar
substances. Heavy dusts, wool, shavings and sawdust from wet wood,
rags, waste paper and similar materials 3000 t6 4000 ft. per minute. Lead
dust, hog waste, pulp chips, etc., 4000 to 6000 ft. per minute.
:
In choosing the pipe sizes consideration must be given to the way and manner in which the machines will be operated, as in case a considerable number of machines, all discharging into one main, should be shut off
463
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
at the same time, the velocity in the main might easily be lowered to the point where it would not be sufficient to carry the material from the machines still in operation, and thus result in clogging the pipes. Ac cordingly, it is sometimes desirable to use velocities higher than the mini mum to allow a factor of safety to cover this contingency.

In some .states codes have been issued specifying suctions to be main
tained for the more common dusts.
,
. A suction standard should always be considered in conjunction with
the shape of hood, and size connection, as these factors together determine
the volume of air exhausted and its velocity which in turn are a measure
of the effectiveness of the exhaust system.

The orifice coefficient / is dependent upon the shape and construction of the hood and will range from 60 to 90 per cent. An average value is 70 per cent. .
Knowing the suction at each hood and the diameter of each connection', the volume of air passing up each' branch can be taken from the accom panying Table 4. The sum of all these volumes gives the total volume to be handled by the exhaust fan.
Common practice is to provide a main suction pipe having an area 20 to 25 per cent in excess of the sum of the areas of the branches enter ing it between the point in question and the dead end of the main. Similarly the discharge pipe leading from the fan outlet to collector is frequently made the same diameter as the large end of the main suction pipe. The reason for this increase in size is that a considerable power saving results from the lower air velocity. However, there is no technical reason why mains should be a certain percentage greater area than the
465
American Society, of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
sum of the connections, and still lower power consumption can be ob
tained by using larger branches and mains of equal area. While the rule
of thumb method of determining size of mains works very well in many
cases, yet it is always desirable to figure the mains and branches of the
proper size to give the velocity which has been found best suited to the
work to be done.
.. -
In certain special cases where explosive or poisonous dusts such as
aluminum buffings, grain dust, powdered sugar, or lead dust are handled,
increasing the size of the mains unduly would introduce a serious hazard.

The maintained resistance of the exhaust system is comppsed of, three
factors: (1) loss through the hoods; (2) collector drop; and (3). friction
drop in the pipes.

Friction drop in the pipes must be computed for each section where

section of pipe starting with the branch furtherest from the fan. The
friction drop for these sections can be determined by reference to Table 5.
Total friction loss in the piping system is the friction drop in furthest

in the discharge pipe.

FRICTIONAL RESISTANCE OF ELBOWS
, Elbows having a throat radius equal to the pipe diameter, set up a resistance equivalent to a section of
straight pipe approximately 10 diameters long. With a throat radius of 1M times the diameter the resistance
is about the same as seven diameters of straight pipe.

SELECTING THE FAN
Having determined the volume of air' and static head required, the
size of exhaust fan, speed and horsepower can be'found by reference to
the manufacturers' performance tables or charts covering the type of
exhaust fan selected. .
. ; ! . ;
The usual types of ventilating fans are unsuitable for exhaust systems which are required to handle materials such as shavings, sawdust, emery dust, etc.- Higher pressures are required than in ventilating work and in addition housings and blast wheel must be so constructed that the materials handled do not deposit in same. While the fans used in different
467
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
exhaust systems are more or less of the same general type, modifications are frequently necessary to fit them for handling such materials as long shavings, strips of paper, cotton, pulverized coal, etc.
Where considerable quantities of explosive dust or inflammable materials pass through the exhaust fan, the blast wheel should be con structed of brass composition, copper or other soft metal and in all cases ample clearance should be provided between blast wheels and housings.
Where stringy or fibrous material is to be handled through the fan be sure to employ a fan wheel especially designed for that purpose.
COLLECTORS
The most common method of separating the dust and other materials from the air is to pass the mixture through a centrifugal or "cyclone" collector. In this type of collector the mixture of the air and material is introduced on a tangent, near the cylindrical top of the collector, and the whirling motion sets up a centrifugal action causing the compara tively heavy materials suspended in the air to be thrown against the side of the separator, from which position it spirals down to the tail piece, while the air escapes through the stack at the center of the collector.
For most systems, the inlet size of the collector may be the same as the diameter in inches of the main pipe leading, to it. The larger the col lector within certain limits the better will be the separation, and the less will be the back pressure on the fan and power consumed.
Special construction is sometimes required for fine dust, also some blow pipe manufacturers use a special type of collector for furnace feed, the object being to deliver the material to furnaces as uniformly as possible.
When more than one fan delivers into a single collector a back pressure valve is required to prevent one fan blowing back through the other in case the second fan should stop for any reason.
In most plants, where wood refuse is used for fuel, it is delivered by
gravity directly from the collector to the furnace. The discharge pipe
leading from the bottom of the collector is divided and the junction fur
nished with a switch or valve so arranged that when the material comes
too fast for the fires it can be diverted into a reserve bin.
.. .
The furnace feeder should be hinged where it is attached to the lower
end of the discharge pipe, in order that it may be disconnected from the
furnace when the fan is shut down. Also great care must be taken to
provide an absolutely tight switch, Otherwise,-when discharging- refus,e
to the storage bin, fine sawdust will sift through this valve and settle
in the furnace feed pipe, and, in case the fireman has neglected to dis
connect the feeder from the furnace, the flame may flash back, following
this train of fine sawdust, into the collector.
.- _
Other forms of collectors or separators, are: settling chambers, cloth screen and bag collectors, bag houses, air washers and electric precipi
tators.
DESIGN OF HOODS
The mechanical design as regards shape and construction of the hoods is extremely important." Probably more systems fail from improper hood construction than from any other one cause.
468
Chapter XXXII--Dust, Exhaust and Collecting Systems
If the material to bemoved is already in motion, as are the chips thrown off from woodworking machines, the hoods should be arranged in the path of the particles so that the velocity of the particles assists the air in carrying the material to the throat of the hood.
Hoods should be arranged to draw dust and fumes away from the face
of the operator. They should be placed as close as possible to the source
of dust or waste material and wherever practical, the hoods should en
tirely enclose the dust producing operation.
~
Hoods are usually constructed of galvanized sheet iron or other equally
substantial and durable material. The material should be heavy enough
to stand the abrasive action of the dust and refuse. The hoods should be
of sufficient mechanical strength to keep their shape and should be well
braced and substantially supported. Galvanized iron used should never
be lighter than No. 22 gage,
.
If acid or corrosive fumes are present heavy material painted with acid resisting paint should be used, or the hoods may be made of non-corrosive material.
The exposed edges of all sheet metal hoods Should be bound with wire
or band iron, not only to give the necessary stiffness, but also to prevent
the operator from being cut by the raw edges of the sheets.
CONVEYOR PIPES
The conveyor pipes leading from the hoods to the fan and thence to
the collector are commonly made of galvanized iron, the gage of which
varies from No. 24 to 14, depending upon the diameter. The piping shpuid
be free from dents, fins and projections of all kinds on which refuse ma
terial might catch.
:.
All permanent circular joints should be lap-jointed, riveted and sol
dered, and all longitudinal joints either grooved and locked or riveted and
soldered. Circular laps shpuid be in the direction of the flow, and piping
installed out-of-doors should have the longitudinal laps at the bottom.
Every change in pipe size should be made on a taper not by an abrupt
change.
.
All pipes passing through roofs should be equipped with collars so
arranged as to prevent water leaking Into the building.
The main trunks, and branch pipes should be as short and straight
as possible, strongly supported, and have the dead ends capped to permit
inspection and cleaning. All branch pipes should join the main at an
acute angle, the junction being at the side or top and never at the bot
tom of the main. Branch pipes should not join the main pipes at points
such that the material from one branch tends to enter the branch on
opposite side of main.
.
Cleanout openings having suitable covers should be so placed in the main and branch pipes that every part of the system can be easily reached in case the system clogs. Either a large cleanout door should be placed in the main suction pipe near the fan inlet or a detachable section of pipe, held in place by lug bands, may be provided.
Elbows should be made at least two gages heavier than straight pipe of the same diameter, the better to enable them to withstand the addi tional wear caused by changing the direction of flow. They should
469
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
preferably have a throat radius of at least one and one-half times the diameter of the pipe.
Every pipe should be kept open and unobstructed throughout its entire length, and no fixed screen should be placed in it, although the use of a trap at the junction of the hood and branch pipe is permissible, provided it is not allowed to fill up completely.
The passing of pipes through fire-walls should be avoided wherever possible, and sweep-up connections should be so arranged that foreign material cannot be easily introduced into them.
Fig. 1. Collectors on Roof Piano Factory
: MAINTENANCE OF SYSTEM
Because of its simplicity the exhaust system usually receives but
little attention once it is installed; however, to obtain the best results, it
should be inspected at suitable intervals and necessary adjustments made.
The exhaust fan should be given proper attention the same as any other
high-speed machine. It should be kept in proper alignment and tightly
bolted to its foundation.
Suction hoods, which have been removed to adjust the machines,
should be replaced as soon as the adjustments are completed.
Never start a machine with the blast gate closed, as the slight air leak
age past the blast gate may draw material into the pipe and clog it.
Disconnect furnace feeders from the furnaces when not in operation,
and do not overload the system by ill-advised additions.

. NATURAL VENTILATION
Motive Forces, Proper Arrangements for Coordinating Temperature Difference and Wind Effects, Fundamental Formulae, Practical Installation Suggestions, Ventilators . - -, for Industrial, Residential and Farm Building Types.
NATURAL ventilation requires no motive power equipment and costs nothing for power to operate. Enormous areas can usually be made available for air flow, and rates' of air changein excess of those usually feasible with fans may often be attained. On the other hand, natural' motive forces being largely beyond human control, natural ventilation is not as amenable to regulation as a fan system.
The natural forces available for utilization in Ventilation are (1) the wind, and (2) the temperature difference between the inside and outside of a building. These two forces'are entirely separate and distinct, and may either cooperate or oppose each other at any given ventilating opening. If possible, therefore, openings should be arranged so that the two forces always act cooperatively, or the control should be such that only groups of openings at which cooperative action occurs will be in use.
., the wind
The wind operates to produce regions of pressure or suction about the
exterior of a building as compared with the conditions that would exist
in these regions if the air were still. The action of the wind is described
in a paper by W. C. Randall, Airation of Industrial Buildings, A. S. H:.
& V. E. Journal, January, 1928. The principal effects of the wind when
blowing directly against one face of a building are illustrated in Fig. 1.
The maximum intensity of pressure at point C is approximately given by
the equation.
. : Ev,' = 0.00048AP
" .. ;
;(1)
where Pw is'pressure in inches of Water, and Af is Velocity1 of..Wind; in miles
per hour. The mean pressure over the windward face-is Somewhat less,
being perhaps 75 per cent of the maximum.
.
The maximum suction occurs. at 'point B at roof and sides, and `in magnitude is about three-quarters pf. the .maximum pressure as given, by equation (1). The distance A, measuring the extent of the suction regions on sidewalls and roof, caused by the leap, or splash, of the wind from the ' windward face, seems to be determined by the height and width of the windward face, and is independent of the wind velocity. The intensity' of the suction diminishes from the maximum at B to zero at the point where the stream lines again flow parallel to the surfaces of the building.
Maximum effect of the wind in producing ventilation can be obtained by providing openings in the windward face for ingress of air and in the
_ Material for this Chapter was prepared especially for The Guide by the following committee: Prof. J. E. Emswiler. chairman: Prof. J. P. Calderwood, Prof. FTL. Fairbanks and W. C. Randall.

leeward face, or in sidewalls and roof riear the leeward face, for egress of air, in which case the air moves through the building in the same general direction as the wind; or, with no openings in the windward face, but with openings provided in the suction regions in sidewalls and roof near the windward face for egress of air, and openings in the leeward end, or in sidewalls near the leeward end for ingress of air, in which case the air movement within the building is in a direction opposite to that of the wind. A knowledge of these facts and their application will often result in a better layout of operations and processes, and even in a more favor able orientation of a building with respect to the prevailing direction of the wind, so that heat and objectionable fumes may be removed more advantageously from an industrial building.
Where the wind comes at an angle to the building, the same general rules apply. The mean pressure of the wind on the oblique faces may be considered as being approximately equivalent to the normal component of the wind, except that when the wind's direction is within 15 or 20 deg. of parallelism, the splash from the corner begins to appear, and there will then be suction near the windward corner.
TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCE
Temperature difference inside and outside a building tends to produce flow as in a chimney. The total head or force arising from this cause is given approximately by equation (2).
pt = 0.000028mD
(2)
where pt is the total force or head in inches of water; m is the vertical distance between inlet openings below and outlet openings above; and D is the temperature difference.
The total force or head is consumed in forcing the air in at inlet openings, through the building, and out at the outlet openings. The force required to move the air through the building is usually negligible, so that the total head may be considered as being consumed at inlet and outlet openings. The part of the total head consumed in forcing the air to flow through the lower or inlet opening will be manifested as. an excess of outside pressure over inside pressure at that level; while at the upper or outlet opening, the part of the total head consumed in forcing the air out will be manifested as a pressure inside, greater than outside. Thus the lower part of the building inside, will be in a state of partial vacuum with respect to the outside, while the upper part will be in a state of pressure. At some point between the levels of the two openings, the pressure state is neutral, and no flow will take place through an opening at that level. This level is called the neutral zone. For a discussion of the neutral zone, and effect of temperature difference in general, see paper by J. E. Emswiler, The Neutral Zone in Ventilation, Trans. A. S. H. & V. E., Vol.
32, 1926.
RELATION BETWEEN HEAD AND FLOW
The relation between head or pressure difference on the two sides of an opening, and the velocity that will be created thereby, is given approxi
mately by equation (3).
_
V - 4000 yp
(3)
472
Chapter XXXIII--Natural Ventilation
where V = velocity in feet per minute through an opening, and p is the pressure difference, in inches of water, existing at that opening from any causes or combination of causes.
With V known, the flow, Q, at the opening can then be easily computed
by the familiar relation.
Q - A VC
(4)
where Q is the flow in C. F. M.; A is the area in square feet, and C is a
coefficient.
.
For openings such as result from swinging or sliding windows and doors, where the aperture is essentially an orifice, the value of C will be about 0.60.
It would be comparatively easy to calculate flow through an opening,
if the pressure difference could be determined. However, so many
factors participate in the general action that it is very difficult to evaluate
a pressure difference arisingfrom a given wind velocity and temperature.
The difficulty is further augmented by the fact that the pressure difference
is likely to have a different value for every different opening or group of
openings of a building.
.
Although it is almost out of the question to attempt to predetermine
accurately the pressure difference from fundamental data of wind velocity,
wind direction, temperature difference, building dimensions and disposition
of openings, in most cases merely a general knowledge of how the forces
of wind and temperature difference act, what their maximum magnitudes
are, and how they are disposed in and about a building, will be helpful
in planning ventilation. On this basis, the following simple rules are
suggested:
1. In an industrial building where furnaces, that give off heat and fumes, are to be installed, it is better to locate them in the end of the building exposed to the prevailing wind. The strong suction effect of the wind at the roof near the windward end will then cooperate with temperature difference, to provide for the most active and satisfactory removal of the heat and gas laden air.
2. In case it is impossible to locate furnaces, in the windward end, that part of the building in which they are to be located should be built higher than the rest, so that the wind, in splashing therefrom will create a suction. The additional height also increases the effect of temperature difference to cooperate with the wind.
3. In the use of monitors, windows on the windward side should usually be kept closed, since, if they are open, the inflow tendency of the wind, counteracts the outflow tendency of temperature difference. Openings on the leeward side of the monitor result in cooperation of wind and temperature difference.
4. In order that the force of temperature difference may operate to maximum advan tage, the vertical distance between inlet and outlet openings should be as great as possible. Openings in the vicinity of the neutral zone are less effective for ventilation.
5. " In order that temperature difference may produce a motive force, there must be vertical distance between openings. That is, if there are a number of openings available in a building, but all are at the same level, there will be no motive head produced by temperature difference, no matter how great that difference might be.
6. In the design of window ventilated buildings, where the direction of the wind is
quite constant and dependable, the orientation of the building together with amount and grouping of ventilation opening can be readily arranged to take full advantage of the force of the wind. On the other hand, where the direction of the wind is quite variable, it may be stated as a general principle that windows should be arranged in sidewalls and monitors so that there will be approximately equal area on all sides.
473
'
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
Thus, no matter what the wind's direction, there will always be some openings directly exposed to the pressure force of the wind, and 'others to a suction force, and effective movement through the building assured.
VENTILATING OPENINGS
_
The openings employed in natural ventilation are:
A. Windows, representing apertures in walls or roof.
B. Roof ventilators of the unit type consisting of some kind of special construction
designed to develop a localized suction from the wind, at the exterior of the
opening.
C. Roof ventilators of the continuous type, giving openings throughout the length of building, having no special features to utilize the force of the wind.
D. Stacks causing flow by gravity (temperature difference) action.
Windows have the advantage of transmitting light, as well as providing
ventilating area when open. Their movable parts are arranged to
open in various ways; they may open by sliding as in the ordinary double-
hung, wood window; by tilting on horizontal pivots at or near the center;
or by swinging on pivots at top or bottom. Whatever the form and type
of window used the thing of essential importance in ventilation is the
amount of clear area that can be made available. The motive head to
produce flow through, windows is almost entirely dependent upon the
distribution of those motive forces in and about a building, as discussed
under .wind and temperature difference. A pivoted window, projecting
out, from the plane of the wall is bound to impose some obstructive
influence upon such air currents as exist in that particular vicinity, and
may result in the. production of. some localized pressure or suction that
will influence flow there, and to that degree, one type of window might
give more or less active ventilation than another. But, speaking generally,
the motive head causing flow through a window is determined by the
forces of wind and temperature difference existing there, and not by the
kind of window, except in so. far'as the kind of window establishes the
area of opening.
...... ,
'
Windows may be arranged for individual operation, or they may be
grouped in long runs, as in factory buildings. Those usedin office build
ings may have deflecting devices it the sills for avoiding direct draft upon
occupants, or a bottom pivoted ventilator, arranged to swing in at the
top, may serve the same purpose.
ROOF VENTILATORS OF THE UNIT TYPE
A roof ventilator of the unit type consists of a structure built up around a roof opening in such a way.as to^ cause,the wind to create a suction in the vicinity of the opening, and so induce an outflow. Roof ventilators also have the advantage of whatever temperature difference prevails. Since. they are. intended- for installations on roofs of buildings, and function as outflow openings only, they constitute but a part of a ventilating system, and some attention must be given to openings available, for inflow. It is evident that such ventilators could not function even in the strongest wind, and with the maximum temperature difference, with out inlet openings. Often such ventilators must depend upon infiltration only for inflow. Inlet openings of about twice the area of - ventilators
474
Chapter XXXIII--Natural Ventilation
should be provided. Dampers should be installed in ventilators, with
adequate and accessible operating mechanism.
.
In considering roof ventilators, the general action of the wind upon the
building, as described in the earlier part of this chapter, should be kept in
mind.
A ventilator located within the region indicated by A in Fig. 1, will not
contribute any inductive effect because in this region there is little or no
wind. The ventilator opening will function, but will function in the same
way as would a window in that locality, because of the resultant effect
Fig. 1. The Jump of Wind from Windward Face of Building. (A--Length of Suction Area; B--Point of Maximum Intensity of Suction;
. C--Point of Maximum Pressure)
of the suction produced by the wind acting upon the building, and by
whatever temperature differences prevail.
Roof ventilators have the advantage in that the opening is effective
if wind strikes the ventilator at all, no matter what the direction.
On the other hand, if ventilators do not stand in the path of the wind,
and depend only upon the same forces for producing flow as do windows
or any other plain opening, they are at a disadvantage because of the
greater resistance of their more complex passages.
;. . :
' While ventilators may be divided into certain classes or groups and the average efficiency of one class will be higher or lower than the average efficiency of another class, this does not in any way determine the
475
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
capacity of individual ventilators, as ventilators of the same class and, which from a casual observation appear to be the same, will have entirely different characteristics, due to the fact that some of the fundamentals have been overlooked or changed in one or the other. r
The principles which should be followed are:
.
A--Stationary. Ventilators.
1. A head sufficiently large to. produce a large low-pressure area on . the side opposite die wind, and to give an area of outlet for the air
leaving the head large enough to obviate undue resistance to flow. At the same time the head should not be so large as to be unwieldy in handling or to be structurally weak when erected.
2. A storm band on stationary non-siphoning ventilators should be sufficiently wide and so placed as to prevent the entrance of external air into the ventilator head.
3. If the ventilator is a siphoning type, additional outlet air space
must be provided in the head in order not to restrict the air pas
sage from the exhaust pipe.
1' ............
B--Rotary Ventilators.
.
1. A flaring outlet from a rotary ventilator will give a better exhaust
' than a straight outlet.
i? .- .
2. Practically frictionless and noiseless turning of the ventilator head, . when the wind direction changes. The head should'turn at very
. low wind velocities.
3. Smallest possible change of direction of the air ascending from the building and least possible resistance to its egress by louvres or other obstructions at the outlet opening.
C--All Ventilators.
1. Freest possible outlet for the air from the building, with large areas and smallest possible change of direction of the air flow.
2. Freedom from down drafts and from entrance of rain or snow.
3. Freedom from being rendered inoperative by collection of snow or formation of ice on ventilator.
The simplest form of ventilator, shown in Fig. 2, consists of an outlet
pipe with a conical hood above it. The addition of a storm band, as
shown in Figs. 3, 4, and 5, gives an increased protection against the
entrance of rain or snow. The storm band, if placed so close to the cones
as to restrict the outflow of air, interferes with ventilation. On the other
hand, if the openings are made large enough to permit free egress of the
inside air, the storm band, increases the ventilation by better utilizing
the wind velocity to produce suction.
'
A further development of the latter principle is the siphon ventilator, as illustrated in Fig. 6, in which siphons or ducts are introduced for the particular purpose of. producing suction.
In the swiveling or rotary ventilators, typified by Figs. .7 and 8, a freely rotating cowl is used. A wind vane is provided for keeping the opening facing away from the direction of the wind. This type, allows
476
Chapter XXXIII--Natural Ventilation
free egress of the inside air (unless the outlet is made unduly small). Its action depends chiefly upon the suction produced by the wind on the
leeward side of the ventilator. -! '
:
In the induction or ejector type of ventilator, which is also of the swivel
ing or rotary type, Fig. 9, the kinetic energy of the wind is intended to
create a suction inside the cowl as well as outside. Resistance to flow of air in the ventilator is caused by; (1) restricted
outlet openings, or (2) many turns or changes of the direction of the air
Various Styles of Roof Ventilators
flow. As regards the first item, this depends entirely upon the proportions, and not upon the type; some of the stationary ventilators have smaller, and others have larger outlet area than some cowl ventilators of the same nominal size. Regarding the second item, the swiveling cowl ventilators offer less resistance than the stationary type, in that the direction of air flow is changed as little-as possible.
Unless swiveling ventilators move very freely, the opening, at times, faces towards the wind so that ventilation produced by temperature difference is much reduced, of wholly, counteracted. *In that case, snow and rain may blow in. The rumbling or creaking noise-caused by a hard turning swivel ventilator is also very unpleasant. These troubles are,
.. '
477
.
X
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
of course, eliminated in well designed ventilators, but must be kept in
mind:
.
In Fig. 10, is shown a rotary or air-turbine ventilator, which rotates continuously under the action of the wind, the motion being produced by * the difference.of wind pressure on the convex and concave sides of the

vanes. This type of ventilator must be very carefully designed if it is to be leak-proof, and if the noises and impact forces, due to ice accumu lating on the vanes in the winter are to be eliminated. :
CAPACITIES OF UNIT TYPE ROOF VENTILATORS
The variety of factors affecting capacity makes it essential for the user of ventilators to exercise-great care in respect to the item of capacity. All comparisons of capacity must be referred to a given, dimension, namely the throat area, corresponding to the nominal size of the ventilator.

Conservative figures for the best types of ventilators now on themarket, under conditions of'unrestricted flow of air to the ventilator, are given by
the equation:
'

where
36 Q=A X

+ 20 X. V
Q = cubic feet of air exhausted per hour through a ventilator having a free
area at the throat of A square inches, mounted on a roof at a height of H
feet from the center of the ventilator outlet to the inlet opening of the
building, and with a wind velocity of V miles per hour, and average tem
perature t\ inside tQ outside.
' ' j'-
High class ventilators, for instance those of the: ejector type, will, under favorable conditions, discharge continuously 25 per cent more air than these conservative figures indicate. Capacities are lower, on the other hand, if ventilators of lower efficiency are used, or if the flow of air into or through the building is restricted, or if the ventilator is not ex posed to the free sweep of the wind. Tests occasionally show consider ably higher discharge rates over short periods of time. These abnormally high results are produced by the action of the wind upon certain openings pf the building; they are not due to the ventilator, Itself, and cannot be depended upon for continuous ventilation if the direction of the wind changes. In the smaller sizes of ventilators (12 in. or less in throat diameter) the air discharge per square inch pf cross-sectional area is reduced; on account of the frictional' resistance and, in the rotary types, on account of reduction of free atea'by the supports, bearings, etc! `'
Example.--What is the capacity of an 18 in. ventilator, located 35 ft. above the inlet
openings, with 6 miles per hour wind velocity, 50 deg. fahr. outside temperature, 68

The air supply per person and pier hour, or the number of the renewals

" Infiltration, " and Chapter XXVI).
'.
To obtain effective, uniform Ventilation and avoid local drafts, the ventilators should not be placed more than 30'ft. apart; 20 ft. apart is a good average. It is best, although not absolutely necessary, to locate the ventilator at the ridge of the roof, unless the building exceeds 40 ft. in width, in which case two rows of smaller ventilators should be used. Where the building, to be ventilated is surrounded by higher buildings
479
American Society of.Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
which obstruct air currents, it is desirable to extend the ventilators above the buildings by mounting them on. stacks.
Example.--A foundry building is 40 ft. wide, 200 ft. long, with an average height of 40 ft.; the ventilators are to be mounted at the ridge of the roof, at a height of 55 ft. above the floor. What number and size of ventilators are required?
Answer.--In this case, ventilation is especially necessary in summer. The air in the building should not be over 10 deg. fahr. warmer than the outside air. The wind velocity may be as low as 4 miles per hour. Spacing the ventilators, tentatively, 25 ft. apart, 8 ventilators would be required. Under average conditions, 10 air renewals per hour are sufficient. If the foundry is small and cramped, and pouring takes place over a large section of the floor space, 15 or more air renewals per hour may be needed. On the basis of 10 renewals per hour, the capacity of each ventilator must be:
10 X (200 ft. X 40 ft. X 40 ft. )
Q=
8
= 400,000 cu. ft. per hour
.
The discharge per square inch of throat area under these conditions is;
36 X y 55 X 10 deg.
[ 6 + 4 mi./hr.
]-+ 20 X 4 mi./hr,
165 cu. ft. of air per hour.
The required throat area per ventilator is
400,000 165 = 2420 sq. in.
if there is no resistance and no wind pressure.
The diameter is .*/ ^420 _ 55 5 in. Standard sizes are 54 in. and 60 in. . J 0.7854 Either eight--54 in. or else seven--60 in. ventilators could be used, spaced respectively 25 ft. or 28 ft. apart.
The foregoing is based on the use of high class ventilators. If ventila tors of lower efficiency are used, or if the air flow into the building is restricted (as in winter) larger ventilators may be required.
CONTINUOUS TYPE OF ROOF VENTILATOR
.
The continuous type of roof ventilator is illustrated in Fig. 11. It furnishes a continuous opening in the roof throughout the length of the building, and is in effect a ridge louvre or monitor. It is stated that the high temperature of the air immediately beneath the sheathing, resulting from exposure of the roof to the sun's rays, induces a powerful convective effect along the pitched roof toward the opening which offers a direct avenue of escape, whereas in the unit type of ventilator, the free egress of the air is confined to definite points along the roof, and the
natural upward flow is diverted with some loss, to a longitudinal move ment. These ventilators are expected to function by the force of tem perature difference alone, and have no external features designed to generate a suction by the action of the wind. The absence of a conspicuous external structure makes this type of ventilator particularly suitable for certain, types of buildings.
DAIRY STABLE VENTILATION
Natural ventilation has an important application in dairy stables and other buildings housing live stock. A paper by F. L. Fairbanks, A. S. H.
480
Chapter XXXIII--Natural Ventilation
& V. E. Journal, February, 1928, offers valuable information on this subject. Some of.the most important facts.are stated below. Although they have been derived from a study of dairy stables, it will be found that some of them are general in their application:
1. For good ventilation, there should be provided about 3500 cu. ft. of fresh air per hour per 1000 lb. of live stock weight.
2. A strong convective circulation is generated by the heat from the bodies of the stock causing an upward movement toward the ceiling, about them, and a consequent downward movement at the walls.
3. Intake openings should be located in the walls near the ceiling so that incoming cold air, falling toward the floor, will accentuate the convective action induced by the heat within.
4. Outlet openings seem to function merely as exhaust ports, to relieve the interior pressure, and appear to have little influence on the direction of air currents. Hence, the spacing or distribution of outlet openings is rather immaterial, so long as the required aggregate area is provided. Area of outlet openings should be about one-third greater than intake.
5. It is better to take the air out at the floor than at the ceiling since by the former there appears to be a larger volume of warm air held in the stable, which contributes to better temperature control.
6: The active circulation resulting from the down flowing cold air entering at open ings in the walls near the ceiling, cooperating with the convective action induced by the heat of the animals, effectually prevents condensation and keeps the air fresh and odorless.
Fig. 12 illustrates a dairy stable ventilation system embodying the principles stated.
CONTROL OF VENTILATION
Control of natural ventilation depends upon hand regulation, which may be applied in two ways, First, by the selection of appropriate locali ties about the building at which to make openings, with regard to direc tion of the wind,' and Second, by regulation of the amount of .opening, which is accomplished by window operative devices, dampers, or louvres. Control may be effected by the regulation of either inlet or out;let;openings, or both and for satisfactory results needs careful study and close attention.
481
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
APPLICATION OF NATURAL VENTILATION
Factory or industrial buildings are usually. ventilated by natural forces, and most commonly by means of windows arranged in side walls and monitors of some form. The vast amount of openings made available by operative windows gives opportunity for unbelievably large air flow, even with forces of slight intensity.
Roof ventilators are found on buildings of all kinds, particularly where
fumes and gases are produced.
'
Dwelling houses are almost always ventilated by natural means, sometimes by roof ventilators, but more often by windows. In colder weather, practically the only ventilation in houses is by infiltration.

Opening shall be divided into twelve equal squares or at least into equal squares not over 10 x 10 in. One-hall minute readings shall be taken at the center of each square.
If the anemometer is held against the face of a register or the periphery of diffusers the volume of air shall be gotten by multiplying the average of the velocities by the net area through the grille or diffusers. If the anemometer is held 2 in. away from the face of the grille or diffusers no deduction shall be made for the area occupied by the material of the grille or diffuser.
(3) USE OF THE PITOT TUBE
Code for the use of the Pitot Tube, presented at annual meeting, January 1914. See A. S, H. & V. E. Transactions, Vol. XX, p. 211. Adopted,, Jariuary 1914. The following is a synopsis of this Code.
Pressure readings of 1 in.' or less should' be taken on an inclined tube type differential draft gage, graduated to at least hundreths of an inch, calibrated by a hook gage. Readings over 1 in. should be taken either with an Ellison type gage or with a U-tube graduated to at least tenths of an inch. Great care should be taken to have perfectly
tight connections, especially on the static side.
The reading should be taken at a cross-section where the pipe is straight and the flow undisturbed. This.should be preferably at least 10 diameters from the fan outlet, from
an elbow, or from a change in cross-section in the duct.
The readings should be taken over a plane at right angles to, and the tube should be pointed in a direction parallel to, tjje direction of the air-flow.
In making a traverse of a rectangular duct the cross-sectional area may be divided into, a number of smaller rectangles, and a reading taken in the center of each small
rectangle.
...
.
A.round pipe should be divided into at least three concentric zones of equal area per
foot in diameter, and four readings taken on a circle drawn through the center of area of each zone or ring. That is, readings should be taken across the horizontal and vertical
axis of the pipe.
.
483
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
The corresponding velocities for each of these readings should be determined and an average taken of all of these velocities in order to compute the air quantity. Inasmuch as the velocity varies as the square root of the pressure, accurate results cannot be obtained by averaging the pressure readings and taking the corresponding velocity as the average.
The velocity may be determined from the velocity pressure by use of the formula.
' . V = 1096.5 ^
V = velocity in feet per minute. Pv -- pressure in inches of water.
W = weight of air in pounds per cubic foot under the existing conditions of tem perature, barometer and humidity.
With dry air at 70 deg. and 29.92 in. barometer W = 0.0749 whence the formula
becomes:
V = 4005
With saturated air at 70 deg. and 29.92 in barometer. W = 0.0735 V = 4046 yPv

(4) SYNTHETIC AIR CHART
Ventilation Standards arid Synthetic Air Chart. Presented at the
semi-annual meeting 1917. See A. S. H. & V. E. Transactions, Vol. XXIII, p. 607.
The following gives a brief description of the Synthetic Air Chart
and method of using same. The form of this Chart has been slightly
modified since it was adopted by the Society and the form here presented
is the one in use at the present time.
.
Description of the Chart
The Synthetic Air Chart is designed for measuring the air conditions maintained in a room. Instead of speaking of the ventilation of a room as good, bad or indifferent, the results of tests are plotted on a chart, and the air conditions as a whole determined on a percentage basis. (Fig. 1.)
This is done by plotting test data for all known factors that make up the air conditions. These factors with their proper weights are arranged in vertical columns across the chart.
The base of each column represents ideal conditions, or 100 per cent perfect. The columns are seven in number, and the first six are indicated by the capital letters. A, B, C, D, E, F.
A = the Effective Temperature Difference, or the amount
of variation from the ideal effective temperature.
B = Dust Particles per Cu. Ft.
C = Bacteria.
-
D ~ Percentage of freedom from objectionable odors., . .
E = Carbon Dioxide, parts per 10,00f).
... . .
P = the Distribution Percent.
.
The last column is the Percent of Perfect column used for plotting the final percentage.
Each of these main columns is further divided into three smaller columns, the center one of which is left blank for recording the test data. To the left of this is the scale for the individual factor, effective temperatures in degrees, dust in particles per cubic foot, carbon dioxide in parts per 10,000, etc. On the right of each central column is the penalization scale. This is arranged with main graduations of 1 per cent which are numbered. Each graduation is further subdivided into 5ths so that the scale may be read to 0.2 of 1 per cent on the scale, or by interpolation to 0.1 per cent.
484
Chapter XXXIV--Codes and Standards of A. S. H. & V. E.
The chart gives not only final percentage of the test as a whole, but also indicates at a glance which factors are satisfactory and which at fault. In this way it is a con venient guide in correcting bad conditions, and bringing the final percentage up to the
point desired.
Making the Test
..
In making a Synthetic Air Chart test the observer first divides the room by imaginary
lines into small sections, each section having an area of approximately 200 sq. ft. of floor space. He locates an observation station in the center of each section. Taking a
school classroom for example, the room should .first be divided into four equal rec tangular areas by imaginary lines bisecting at right angles through the center of the room. (See Fig. 2.) Four stations are now selected, one at the center of each rectangle. These stations are numbered 1,2,S and 4. If isfiilwaysrwell to use a standard method of numbering stations, so that whoever reads the report can visualize each location.
Standing at the rear of the room facing the teacher's desk No. 1 is the station nearest the teacher at her right. No. Sis the one directly back of No. 1. No. 3 is the station nearest the teacher at her left, and No. 4 the remaining station.
The tests are conducted in the following manner:
Column A.--A Psychrometer reading is taken at each station beginning with 1,
following with S, S and 4. The wet and dry bulb readings are separately recorded on the
data sheet, Fig. 3, for each station.
.
485
American Society of Heating and Ventilating Engineers Guide, 1929
Column B.--Dust determinations are next made at stations 1, 2, 3 and 4, and the count of particles per cubic foot recorded from each station. The scale of the chart is arranged for a direct reading dust counter. If some other type of instrument is used, a correction factor is, of course, necessary.
Column C.--Culture plates are next exposed to determine the bacterial content of the
air. One plate is exposed at each station for two minutes, incubated, and the colonies
that develop are counted and recorded for each plate. The average of all plates is plotted
on the chart.
.
Column D.--Odor determinations are made of the room as a whole.
The observer should go outside of the room or preferably outside of the building for
a few moments previous to making the test. He then enters the room quickly, and
makes his determinations of the air in the classroom by means of the olfactory sense,
recording the results whether perfect, very faint, noticeable, etc., in accordance with
the following table.
\
100% Perfect
95% Very Faint
Freedom from Odors
90% Faint
85%
4
Noticeable
80% Distinct
75% Decided
70% Strong
An Odorometer consists of a case of six vials each containing an odor substance in
varying strength. It adds materially in classifying and standardizing* odor perception.
Its use, however, is not imperative.
;j .
Column E.--Samples of air are next taken at each station, and,.later analyzed for carbon dioxide, and results of this analysis plotted in Column E in parts in 10,000.
Column F.--Distribution of the air in the room is determined from the CO2 analysis .
taken at the various stations.

Fig. 3. Data Sheet for Synthetic Air Chart Test
After-the tests have been made as described, the observer completes his test by a study of air motion and air currents. This is done by liberated puffs of ammonium chloride in different locations in the room with a suitable apparatus. Observations of the velocity and direction of travel of these small artificial smoke clouds add materially in
obtaining a true conception of the velocity and general behavior of the air currents in
the room.
Plotting the Test Data
The results of the tests are plotted in each' column as previously described. The following data from the test illustrated on the chart on page 485 will make the entire procedure clear:

Equipment, installation and results are guaranteed. Ask for Bulletin 58-G, or request specific information.
Cooling and Air Conditioning in Public and Private Buildings--With a background of more than twenty-five years' experience in the design and applica tion of Air Conditioning equipment, the Carrier organization has logically led in
applying this science to the maintenance of conditions of physical comfort of people congregated within buildings. In Theatres, Auditoria, Hospitals, Hotels, Department Stores, Office Buildings, Factories and Mansions it is now possible to maintain ideal conditions of physical comfort, regardless of seasons or outdoor weather. Winter conditions require humidification and heating. In Summer, cooling and dehumidification must be accomplished. Nearly 3000 Carrier installations in more than 200 different industries are producing the desired conditions unfailingly. We are at all times pleased to cooperate with Architects, Engineers and Builders in the design and installation of Air Conditioning equipment within buildings under their direction.

The cubic feet contents of a room which an air conditioning unit will handle is dependent upon the relative humidity and
the amount of heat to be absorbed (from lights, power consumed in running machinery or other source of beat)--the higher the humidity and the greater the amount of heat, the less room space in cubic feet contents with a given sired unit handle. The capacities given are only to serve as a rough guide for average conditions; even then the capacity may vary over a wide
range as given.

Niagara Blower Company Air Conditioning and Heating Equipment
immediately into the working zone. They maintain uniform temperature, leaving no cold spots or corners and draw the cold air off the floor without creating drafts.
Efficient Heating--,
By recirculating air in the working zone, Niagara Heating Units prevent the waste of heat caused by overheating the upper part of the room to obtain normal tem perature below. Because of -this saving and the large amount of air handled in relation to the heating surface, Niagara Heating Units consume less fuel in main taining desired uniform temperatures. .
Construction Advantages--
Specially designed, high efficiency fan produces large capacity with slower speed and more quiet operation. Niagarifin Heating Surface combines advantage of welded steel pipe construction and fin distribution of heat.

Construction
All types of Midwest Filters are based upon the unit principle of construc tion, each cell being a complete and inter changeable unit. The filter cell proper consists of a heavy, welded box like frame with expanded metal front and back,, containing a series of strong, specially shaped filter sheets, so arranged as to provide progres sively increasing density from front to rear of the cell. Note in the illus tration how dust accumuates but does not obstruct.
Midwest Unit Filters
Unit installations are built in wall type set-ups to deliver the required air capacity, and are as sembled in angle iron frames to fit the space available. Midwest cells are easiest to install and handle. They automati cally snap into place and require no corner clips. Rigid one-piece frames provide durable, leak-proof joints. Filter medium of progressively increasing density provides maximum dust holding capacity. Filter area is 19 per cent larger than in other styles of filter unit, making for low resistance and ef ficiency of 97 to 99 per cent guaranteed. Can be cleaned by steam or hot water hose. Complete recommendations, draw ings and data furnished without charge.
Air Fillers and Cleaners
National Air Filter Company
Manufacturers of Air Filters
5130 Ravenswood Avenue, Chicago
Products:
National Air Filters--Dry types, manually
serviced and automatic; oil coated types, fully
automatic, semi-automatic, and manually
operated.
A National Filter for Every Need:
Beginning with the Phoenix Filter, the standard self-cleaning air filter awl the only one in ita class having a long record of successful operation, the National line has been developed to include types specially adapted for all the conditions encountered in ventilating and industrial installations.
The two most widely applicable models are the AIRMAT and the TooPas.'
The AIRMAT Filter:
The AIRMAT--unique in its utilization of a dry. fibrous textured filtering medium--presents a hi$h standard of efficiency and a simple economical method ofservicing, heretofore unknown
among air filters. The specially developed
filtering mat sold under the trade name "AIRMAT" comprises multiple layers each with millions of tiny openings which permit the air to pass with tittle resis tance, out cause it to leave behind all dirt particles in the mazes of the mat. ' In the AIRMAT eeo. tionai filter, sheets of this filtering medium 2 ft. square are held by wire frames in sectional cabinets 12 in. high, 24 in. wide and 24 in. . deep. Each of these sections holds 4 AIRMAT frames and has a filtering capacity of 1000 c.f.m. Any desired capacity can be secured by laying up tbese sections in tiers like filing cabinets.
The servicing of this filter ts simple, easy and clean. The mats are used for a predetermined length of time, depending on the amount of dirt in the air and the degree of efficiency desired. When a mat is soiled, the frame is removed from the cabinet, the mat taken out and thrown away, and a clean one inserted. The cost of AIRMAT replacements constitutes the lowest material cost of any manually serviced system of air filtration. But the big saving is in labor. With the AIRMAT, this is practically nothing.
Architects can take advantage of any space available for this filter because of its sectional construction. Additions or changes are obviously easy to make. There are no accessories to an AIRMAT installation. No space is required for tanks or other special equipment.
The TooPas Filter:
The TooPas, like the time tested Phoenix, embodies the
double pass principle of cleaning the air. The filtering medium
is an endless curtain composed of multiple layers of woven
copper ribbon and coarser outer
layers of expanded metaL This is
made up in small units flexibly con
nected which operate over supporting
wheels in the form of a roller curtain.
The lower end of this curtain dine
into a tank of oil which removes toe
dirt from the filtering medium by
solvent action. Years of experience
with the Phoenix Filter have demon
strated that this ia the most simple
and satisfactory means for removing
dirt from a metal surface. In this
system, there is no need to pump the
oil. Pumps with all of their troubles
are eliminated. The oil never has to
be removed or treated. Since it is
never disturbed, it clarifies itself by
the natural process of sedimentation.
The TooPas Filter is easy to
operate by a simple hand crank.
Several sections can be placed side
by side and operated by a tingle
handle. Servicing is limited to a few
turns each week. When motor drive
is advisable, it can be furnished at nominal extra cost.
The important advantages of this filter are:
1. The elimination of oil entrainment. The double pass
principle makes it possible to absolutely guarantee this filter
against oil entrainment in the air.
*,
2. Unit construction of standard width and any required
height. This permits the ready adaptability of this filter to any
ventilation system--office building, school, hospital, theater,
church, public building or factory.
_
3. Adaptability to volume manufacture, ease of shipping and
erecting. This filter for the first time brings the advantages of
the Phoenix principle into a form which lends itself to volume
production. All parts are carried in stock and assembly can be
made on short notice. The sheet, metal duct work is readily
attached to the frame work of the sections. No other framing is
necessary. The contractor saves in labor and has very little to
figure on in the erection of the TooPas. Note the table of sizes
and capacities.

Air Filter--The Reed Mer-for Haw-Duty, Standard Unit Air Filter Uninterrupted Sendee consists of a durable metal cell progressively packed with double-crimped, galvanized wire filtering media thoroughly coated with Adhesine. Because of the small size of the individual baffles, this form of media separates the air into innumerable fine streams, insures the greatest number of impingements and makes possible the highest cleaning efficiency--97 to 99 per cent guaranteed.
rows of streamline baffles similar to the low-wind-resistance shapes developed in airplane service, is stationary, thus eliminating moving parts. These forms
offer less resistance to air flow than any
other shape yet developed. Performance characteristics are constant, cleaning
efficiency guaranteed 97 per cent, resis
tance to air flow 0.25 in. of water.
To facilitate the laying out and instal
lation of filters of various capacities, and to best use whatever space is available, the
Reed Streamline is built in standard sections, in three different sizes and capacities. Complete half sections are
made to furnish intermediate capacities between multiples of the standard sections.
Instead of the usual Reed Automatic
Electric Control, a push button control or time switch may be installed when the fan is operated intermittently.
By progressively packing the media and gradually increasing the density toward the rear of the filter, greater, dust capacity and minimum increase in resistance are assured. Periods between cleanings are therefore correspondingly increased. The Reed Automatic Latch facilitates the handling of cells in restricted areas and the felt gasket between cell
and frame prevents leakageand insures full efficiency. The new Reed Steam Cleaning Tank cleans the
cells far more thoroughly and the labor of manual washing is entirely eliminated. Our engineering department will gladly furnish complete data and drawings on any Reed Air Filter, for any purpose, without cost or obligation.

Automatic Stokers
Whiting Corporation
HARRINGTON STOKER DIVISION Harvey, Illinois
Manufacturers of the "King Coal" Automatic Stoker for Heating and Small Power Plant Boilers
The "King Coal" Automatic Stoker is a front, over-feed, stepped grate mechanism having two stationary and two movable sections wherein gravity plays no part in progression of the fuel bed. It provides fully automatic stoking of boilers from 40 hp. and up.
Hospitals, hotels, apartments, schools and
laundries find its smokeless combustion,
fuel saving and fully automatic features of
substantial value in figuring their heating
costs.
.
Fuel--Coal of the cheapest grade is burned at high efficiency.
Forced Draft--This takes care of low chimney troubles in small boiler in stallations.
Ash Discharge--Stokers are entirely self cleaning and the patent ash discharge provides a continuous ash seal where all of the latent heat in the ash is given up before being discharged into the pit. .
Standardization--All sizes of "King Coal" Automatic Stokers are identical in construction. Adding sections to length and additional width increases the capacity. Each section or step is made up of in dividual grate bars which merely rest in place (no multiplicity of pins,
cotters, bolts or joints).
Flexibility--Varying speed of
travel and depth of coal bed secured by a one to four inch adjustability
of the stroke and the adjustability of the hopper gate. Only alternate grates are movable, thus securing uniform flow of coal without caking.
1. Feed hopper and feed plate, the latter being first of 4 grates.
2. Second grate tedion resit upon grate (S). 3. Movable grate section rests and slides upon (4), at the same time
sliding back and forth under section (#). 4. Rear grate. 5. Ash plate.
x Standard Sizes
Grate Widths (in feet)............................... ............... 3.4 ,.5,6 Grate Lengths (effective grate surface, in feet), 6, 7,8,9 Each width can be made in either length. Required furnace width always just one foot more than the grate width. Furnace depth for 6-ft. stoker is 7 ft. 5 in.; furnace depth for 8 and 9-ft. stoker is 10 ft. 2 in.
"King Coal" Model "B" S|oker
Designed particularly for simple and easy installation in boilers of the fire box type as well as the smaller brickset boilers. Range in coal burning capacity from 40 to 500 pounds of coal per hour. Smokeless combus tion guaranteed, and self-cleaning fires.

IDEAL "KOLFLASH"
Coal-buming Water Heater
The firepot of the Kolflash Heater is made of cast iron with a one-inch non-heat-conducting refractory lining. Under ordinary operating conditions the tern- perature of the smooth, enameled and non-waterbacked exterior of the firepot is no higher than the temperature of the water in the tank.
This lining not only contributes to the efficiency of the heater, but also provides for a quick pick-up capacity. For the lining retains the heat of the fire, and after a shaking-down and the addition of more fuel, the new charge of coal quickly ignites. The radiant heat of the glowing coals plays directly on the broad bottomed, water-backed surface of the tank, and. the heated water rises, extracting increasing amounts of heat from the gases in the central flue. \
The Ideal Kolflash Heater has been designed with deep firepot especially to provide for long firing periods.

Specifications
Large combustion chamber insures minimum at tention.
For ordinary household demands this heater need
be fired but twice a day.

One inch, non-heat-conducting refractory lining in firepot, prevents heat loss and insures quick pick-up heating capacity.
Water-surrounded flue insures maximum absorption
of heat from the gases:'

IN-AIRID The Invisible Air Valve
The IN-AIRID No. 1 is a new type automatic air valve especially designed to
prevent the short circuiting of steam in new water type radiation. The In-Airid screws
into the top plug opening in the vent end of the radiator and its baffle disc completely
blocks off the opening to the last section. The operation of In-Airid is based on the
same well known principle of the thermostatically charged float used so successfully
in the famous Airid No. 500.
.
The IN-AIRID No. 2 is for "below atmosphere" jobs. It has all the venting
features of the No. 1, plus the vacuum seal with hand lapped monel disc and seat. It
allows the air to escape but prevents its return into the system.
AIRID AIR VALVES
The Airid No. 500 should be installed only on old style radiation which has nipple connections only at the bottom. On new type radiation with nipple connections at the top use the In-Airid.
Vac-Airid No. 510 is for "below atmosphere" jobs on old style radiation. It is designed to allow the air to escape but prevents its return into the system.

The Bigelow Two Pass Boiler
for
Heating and Power
The requirements in considering a boiler especially for steam heating--are first cost,
efficiency and maintenance, and the steel heating boiler particularly the Bigelow Two
Pass type we believe meets the above desired requirements most favorably.
..
First Cost--The F. O. B. price of a steel boiler is often higher than for other types,
blit, of course, the installed cost is the correct way to figure. For the proper erection of a
sectional boiler experienced and high priced men are required while the Bigelow Two-Pass
Boiler is shipped practically all assembled and requires but a small amount of mason
work.
Efficiency--Correctly designed as a heat absorbing piece of apparatus, the area of
the gas passage in the first pass is approximately one third greater than that of the
return pass. This results in better heat transmission, due to the more uniform velocity
of the gases over the heating surface as they are cooled.
.
The furnace is constructed of standard fire and red brick and is encased in a heavy
sectional plate steel casing which adds to the neat appearance of the installation and
prevents infiltration of air through cracks that may develop in the brick work.
Maintenance--The Bigeiow Two-Pass Boiler is constructed without crown sheet or
water, legs, so there are no staybolts to break and cause leakage or danger of rupture.
Being constructed of steel, there is no likelihood of cracking sections due to sudden changes
of temperature, variation in thickness of material under pressure, and no unequal strains
are set up in assembling. The many installations of the Bigelow Two-Pass Boiler both
for heating and power, have proven it to be economical in operation and low in main
tenance cost.

Fitzgibbons Boiler Co., Inc.
ESTABLISHED 1886
General Offices: 570 Seventh Avenue, New York City
PRODUCTS Fitzgibbons Copper Steel Boilers for Steam or Hot Water Heating. Table 1. Fitzgibbons Copper Steel Smokeless Boilers for Steam or Hot Water Heating. Table 1-B. Fitzgibbons (Intermediate Sized) Steel Boilers for Steam or Hot Water Heating. Table 2. Fitzgibbons All Riveted Steel Boilers for Heating and for Power. Table 3 and Table 4. (Not shown). Fitzgibbons Steel Boilers: Embodying the original Fitzgibbons cylindrical furnace, entirely free from brickwork, the high combustion chamber, the gas-deflecting arch, the secondary air preheater, and the effective single pass of many relatively small tubes, Fitzgibbons Steel Boilers have, for more than forty years, proved their twin qualities, notabte fuel economy and lifetime service, substantially without main tenance expense. Construction: The cylindrical design of the Fitzgibbons Steel Boiler affords the strongest possible construction with minimum of internal bracing; and the complete water-jacketing of the vertical furnace insures exceptionally long life as well as high efficiency. The entire interior of the Boiler is visible and accessible for inspection or cleaning. Combustion: Complete combustion of the fuel and its consumable gases is attained with a minimum of excess air. The circular Fitzgibbons grate is free from dead corners and maintains a hot, uniform fire. The wholly visible grate encourages and assists careful firing. The high cylindrical combustion chamber is now recog nized as essential to complete combustion. The

churches, garages, etc.
rear gas-deflecting arch diverts the gases forward into intimate mixture with the preheated secondary air which enters through a port above the firing door. As the air-gas mixture whirls upward combustion is completed before the gases enter the tubes, resulting in very high furnace temperatures,--often close to 3000 deg. fahr. Smokeless com bustion of semi-bituminous coal in dicates the thoroness of this combustion.
Conduction and Circulation: The absorption of the heat so effectively generated in the Fitzgibbons furnace is accomplished by the unique design of this time-proved Boiler. The water line is carried in the vertical shell directly above the combustion chamber, the hoHzontal tube Cylinder being com pletely filled with water. Therefore the circulation of the water is extremely rapid as the boiler steams and the bub bles move along fixed paths toward the steam chamber. This rapid circulation insures heat absorption as effective as the heat generation accomplished in the furnace as is evidenced by (1) the quick . steaming capacity, (2) less than 1 per cent moisture in steam regardless of overload carried, and (3) unusually low flue-gas temperatures.

Some points of advantage in Ross Boilers:
Equipped with special grates for burning hard coal, soft coal, wood or sawdust
1. Spacious fire box and combustion chamber.
2. Long three pass travel of fire.
3. Fire box surfaces with crown sheet and bank of water tubes present unusually large amount of radiant heating surface in high temperature zone.
4. Complete, rapid and unrestricted circulation of water accelerated by water tubes.
5. Ample heating surface and grate surface in proper ratios.
6. Large Central flue to allow complete combustion.
7. Liberal steam space and releasing area.
8. Unrestricted draft areas, correctly proportioned.
9. Large water content for hold-over.
10. Indestructible smokeless arch.
11. Full length self-cleaning crown sheet.
12. Every water space easily accessible for fcleaning and inspection.
13. All tubes cleaned from outside of boiler at front.

Heating Boiler Division of James G. Heggie & Sons, Manufacturers of Steel Boilers of all Kinds for over
Thirty-seven Years
Representatives in Principal Cities
HEGGIE-SIMPLEX HEATING BOILERS
For Burning Soft Coal Smokelessly For Soft or Hard Coal, Coke, Gas or Wood
For Burning Oil
During the thirty-seven years covered by the activities of Jas. G. Heggie & Sons, boiler design has been perfected in its fundamentals. The Heggie^SimpIex Boiler is the last step in this evolution. In it there is no compro mise with traditional features. It is the embodiment of a scientific study of all known heating principles and requirements.
The Heggie-Simplex Boiler combines in one
portable, electrically welded steel unit, all the
recognized advantages of both firebox and
return tubular, double pass boilers. It has
four distinctive features of fundamental
importance:
1. An extra large firebox and a maximum of direct heating surface.
2. A secondary combustion chamber that provides ample room forcomplete com bustion before the dues are reached.
3. A "rear-front-rear" flue passage for the gases.
4. A single, unimpeded, freely circulating body of water.
Correct heating principles find perfect expres sion in this boiler design. It secures as com plete combustion of any fuel as ever has been attained in a heating boiler, with full applica tion of its heat units. .
Needless to say, Heggie-Simplex Boilers are more economical of operation than other types--in fuel consumption, number of firings, and ash handling. They are also economical of space, because of their com pactness, the rear smoke outlet, and the front tube cleaning feature. No finer materials are used in any heating boilers, and none are fabricated more expertly or with greater care. While built to A. S. M. E. requirements, in a number'of points they exceed these stand ards. They may be installed with unex ampled ease, requiring no bricking, packing or other costly operations.
Heggie^Simplex Boilers are guaranteed to develop the capacities listed on the following pages, at the point of most economical fuel consumption. They are based upon a stand ard for steam of two pounds pressure at the boiler, and for water upon a mean temperature of 180 deg. fahr. as the water leaves the boiler.

Kewanee Firebx
Kewanee Firebox Boilers represent 40 years of
intensive study and effort to make the highest
B?ilek -Brick-td-for Heating grade equipment for heating buildings. They are
.'
adapted to the burning of any grade of fuel and will
maintain high efficiency when operating to supply the variable demands of a
* heating load.
Kewanee Smokeless B?iler -PortabU-for Healing
The rated capacity is the amount of direct radiation that the boiler will carry with a bring interval of three to four hours depending upon the
' grade of fuel used. No discount in rating is ad
vised as reserve capacity has been allowed to care for the most severe weather
conditions.
Kewanee Boilers are built of steel (riveted)- using as a minimum basis the rules of construction adopted by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, known as the A. S. M. E. Boiler Code.
Ratings
The rated capacity of Kewanee Boilers, as shown, is the number of square feet
of direct radiation or equivalent which the boiler will carry, if sufficient radiation is installed to heat the building to 70 degrees Fahrenheit.
The ratings are based on a standard for steam of 2 lb. pressureat the boiler, and for water on a mean temperature of ISO deg. Fahr. as the water leaves the boiler.

KOOLSTACK BOILERS
for
OIL BURNING, COKE, and ANTHRACITE COAL
Low Stack Temperature. Leader Koolstack Boilers operate with stack tempera tures of less than 300 deg. fahr. Economy is the result.
'
Heating Surface. Koolstack Boilers have far more than the usual amount of heating surface.
Fire Travel. Flue gases pass from com bustion chamber to the top of rear tubular section, then down through the tubes and out at the bottom.
Economy. The unusual economy Leader Koolstack Boilers is due to the fact the flue gases are held in the boiler until all of the effective heat has been released.
of
Automatic Damper. Tempo rary draft acceleration at the initial firing period is provided by an automatic damper which by-passes the products of combustion direct to the chimney. This damper closes automatically when the stack temperature reaches 250 deg.
For Oil, Coke, and Anthracite Coal. While this is primarily a boiler for Oil Burning,
it shows remarkable performance records on Coke and Anthracite Coal. It is not
intended for use with soft coal.

pATT STEEL HEATING BOILERS
LU1L AND WATER HEATERS
OIL OR COAL BURNING
It is the amount of heating surface, provided it is properly placed in relation to the fire, that determines the amount of oil or coal used to heat a building. The amount of heating surface per unit of rating in the Coil Boiler is exceptionally high and is tremendously effective because it is within view of the flame, hence, capable of absorbing the radiant heat.
NET RATINGS
The Coil Water Tube Steel Boiler is rated on the amount of direct cast-iron radiation the boiler will carry. Example: A boiler rated at 800 ft. will carry 800 ft. of direct cast-iron radiation. A sufficient reserve has been figured in the rating to take care of piping, except where unusual con ditions exist, such as exposed piping, insufficient radiation, etc., where allowance must of course be made.

Note.--In ordering 26 in. boilers state whether you wish same fitted up with right hand or left hand end to the chimney. Length includes Smoke Box.
Equipment.---Each steam boiler is equipped with a full set steam trimmings (26 in. series, I pressure regu
lator; 31 in. and 47 in. senes. 2 pressure regulators.)
.
Water boilers are furnished with two water temperature regulators, except 26 in. series which are
equipped with one. A complete set of firing and cleaning tools, together with instruction books for setting up and operation, accompany each boiler.
THE cross-sectional views on this and the next page show the construction of the sections and the relative position of the reserve coal in the magazine. Note the downdraft and crossdraft travel of the gases through the fire and into the com bustion chamber.

Side grate eatily adjustedfor matt coal or large coal
LOSS of valuable heat units is im possible because the fuel is added to the draft side of the fire. The air supporting the combustion enters the fire chamber through the ad justable side grate, passes through the incandescent fire and is drawn through the water grate with the gases at a flaming temperature. Airand gases mix upon entering the combustion chaqiber.

The spacious fire box provides large fuel capacity which allows maximum time be tween attention periods, and makes it possible to carry an economical and effective fire.
After leaving the combustion chamber the hot gases travel twice the length of the boiler before discharging into the stack.
Special grates can be fur nished to burn the smaller sizes of fuel.

a "The " Maximum Direct Radiation Load" is the maximum actual amount of square feet of cast iron enlnmn radiation
or its equivalent that we recommend be attached to boiler. This amount provides a safety factor of 75 per oent, bring ample
for average conditions, to take care of the load imposed by mains, risers, etc., but does not provide an allowance for thebeabng
of water for domestic use, or any extra load where attached radiation will condense more than 0.25 04) lb. of steam, per
square foot per hour.

"OH City" Smokeless Boiler
"OIL CITY" low pressure boilers are offered to the trade as the last word in "Heating Economy" comprising in one unit all the elements of a modern plant for steam or hot water heating, especially adapted for Schools, Office Buildings, Hotels, Churches, Club Houses, Hospitals or for any purpose where the service of a universally recognized fire box boiler of high merit is desired.
"OIL CITY" boilers are designed and constructed to meet all requirements of modern engineering as formulated by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, the boiler laws of the various states and cities, and are backed by 35 years of suc cessful practical experience.
Description--"OIL CITY" boilers are built in smokeless and straight draft types for portable and brick settings, self con tained with all steel construction thor oughly braced, stayed, inspected, and tested for 15 lb. working pressure.
These boilers have large fire boxes thereby insuring ample combustion space in which heat-giving gases and air freely mix before entering tubes.
The arrangement of tubes in relation to shell allows free circulation of water at all times, together with large steam space, insuring dry steam and steady water level.
" D" Type Boiler
The above view shows the new "D" type residential boiler built in capacities 400 to 2000 sq. ft. direct steam radiation. Send for Circular H-23.
Ratings--Ratings are very conservative, only such parts of the boiler coming in actual contact with passage of the hot gases, and lying below the zone of normal water level being considered as heating surface.
Equipment--Equipment with all boilers includes, in addition to complete set of shaking grates, all the necessary castings, safety valves, steam gauge, water column, etc., required for a complete installation.
Oil Fired--Where oil is used exclusively we recommend our new Series 1900 Port able Return Tubular Fire Box Oil Burning Boiler. Complete specifications and measurements shown in Circular H-22.
Every "OIL CITY" boiler bears the
official stamp of the A. S. M. E. Boiler
Code, indicating the pressure at which
the boiler may be worked.
,,-
At a small increase in cost "OIL CITY" boilers are furnished, braced and stayed, for a safe working pressure of 100 lb. Complete specifications, measurements and weights shown in Catalog H-9.

STEEL HEATING BOILERS
Pacific Steel Heating Boilers are built for steam or hot water heating using soft coal, hard coal, oil, gas, or wood as fuel.
They are constructed of steel accord ing to the A. S. M. E. Code for building low pressure steel heating boilers. Every joint and seam in the Pacific is electrically welded and each boiler is built and tested to a pressure many times its normal working pressure un der the supervision of an inspector stationed in our plant by one of the largest insurance companies.
Because of the compact design, Pacific Boilers save from 25 to 40 per cent, of the boiler room floor space required by other steel firebox boilers, (see dimensions given on opposite page).
The catalog ratings on Pacific Boilers are based on heating surface with steam at two pounds gauge '''pressure,. hot water at 180 deg. at boiler. Any Pacific Boiler will carry its full rated load in direct cast iron 'radiation. Extra capacity must be allowed for exposed piping, storage tank, pipe coils or indirect radiators and for buildings where normal tem peratures below 70 deg. F. are to be maintained.

ote the generous dimensions--particularly the width of the sections. The so-
N called "square feet," the units in which radiators are sold, are correspondingly
generous in size.
.
In the seven-tube series, the sections are spaced on 3-in. centers instead of 2% in.,
as in the narrower patterns. This extra spacing preserves the effect of lightness and
grace in the largest radiators. It also measurably increases the heating effect.

New "RICHARDSON" Square Cased Boilers
Finish.--The outer casing is. finished with high lustre blue Japan that is durable, easy to clean and will not crack or peel. The doors, ashpit front and smokebox, in other words, all cast iron parts not covered by the casing are coated with black enamel.
Insulation.--The lining or insulation of the "Richardson" boiler is of 1 in. 8-ply asbestos air cell and is attached to the cases when shipped. It thus cannot be damaged in transit or in handling. The air space between the heating unit and the outer casing provides extra heat conserving insulation.
Casings.--The casings are cut in half from side to side at the flow openings on the top of the boiler and horizontally at the return tappings so that they can be attached after all piping connections to the boiler are made.

"Richardson" System of Mechanical Warm Air Heating and Ventilating
The Richardson System of Mechanical Heating and Ventilating provides a predetermined volume of fresh, warmed, moist air uniformly throughout the space to be heated. This system is especially suitable for the heating and ventilating of schools, churches, auditoriums, large residences, hospitals, garages, manufacturing plants, and is applicable to commercial enterprises where drying is to be done.
Heat is evenly distributed to all parts of the
building at the proper temperature, and a healthful
air condition is also maintained at all times without
drafts, summer as well as winter, irrespective of the
outside temperature conditions or direction of the
winds.'
.
This system is customarily installed with a sufficient capacity to provide from three to seven changes of air to each room per hour, depending on the' type of the building and the number of people occupying the space to be heated.
By means of the Richardson System entire buildings can be wanned within 90 minutes from the time the heaters are put in operation.
How the System Works--The Richardson System of Mechanical Heating and Ventilating consists of warm air heaters (designed for this purpose) with fans or blowers. . Fresh outdoor air is drawn from a fresh air room by a fan into the plenum or pressure chamber back of the "Perfect" Warm Air Heaters; from here the air is passed over the prime heating surface of the heater which.is set in a galvanized or brick housing known as the heat chamber, and thoroughly, warmed. The air is then forced through ducts and discharged into the various rooms through grilles or registers located about 8 ft. above the floor level or placed in or just above the floor as may be necessary, according to the adaptability of the' house or building to be heated, thus assuming the control of the movement of all air to the rooms connected to the system. ' The vitiated or cooled air in the rooms is ex hausted (to make space for the fresh warmed air) into vent stacks through grilles at the floor line, fitted with louvers, or slatted and highly sensitive metal panels, which prevent back-drafts.

Boilers
^ POINTS Paramount in Choosing Boilers
1--Continuous Service--Any heating plant will break if carelessly operated. Broken sections in Prox Boilers can be plugged off and heat maintained, avoiding dismissal of school or closing of building.
2--Fuel Economy--Short wide firebox design, full three-layer fire travel, very low stack temperature, large self-cleaning flues, conservative ratings, ideal design for perfect combustion with soft coals.
3--Long Service--Safety--Prox Cast Sectional Boilers represent maximum permanence.
4--Quick Dry-Steaming--Low water line, small waterways, quick circula tion, dry steam assured by steam separating header over Prox Boilers.
5--Repair Economy--Remove any sec tions like tilting book from bookcase. Other boilers must be torn down and expensive covering destroyed.
6--Installation Economy--Take flow direct from large steam separating header, saving extra cost of additional, header construction necessary to get dry steam with other boilers.
PROX BOILERS--World's best for large installations in Schools,
Theatres, Apartments, Churches, Hospitals, Hotels, etc.

PRODUCTS: Spencer Magazine Feed Heaters
The Spencer Heater is the original Magazine Feed Heater with sloping grates. The Waterjacketed Magazine holds enough fuel for 12 to 24 hours, without attention. As fuel feeds automati cally, as fast or as slow as the fire- requires, the Magazine supply lasts longer in milder weather.
Spencer Heaters are made in sizes to suit any
building, large or small, either in steel tubular types or cast iron sectional types. Commercial ratings have been discontinued. Capacities are guaranteed when installed under normal conditions, according to the table below and on the following page, when used with any low pressure steam, vapor, or hot water system.

Special Features for Different Types of Buildings
Spencer Heaters are especially efficient in in dustrial buildings, greenhouses and garages where uniform heat is desirable; and in churches, theatres, schools and buildings where they give constant, even and uniform heat, without the attention of a night fireman. For the home, the Spencer is especially convenient, as it needs attention only once or twice in twenty-four hours.
Spencer Economy for Building Owners
-Though Spencer Heaters are designed to burn any non-coking graded fuel, their greatest saving is made with small sized, low cost fuels. They save as much as half the owner's annual fuel bill by
using. No. 1 Buckwheat anthracite, and propor tionately by using by-product Pea or Buckwheat coke. Where anthracite and coke are not available, they are equally efficient when fired with smaller sizes of semi-bituminous, such as Pocahontas, or any non-coking graded fuel.
Automatic Magazine Feed
Gives Steady Heat
Fuel is fed automatically by gravity--no blowers or mechanical apparatus are needed. They are easy to install--the new Spencer Heaters are as easy to erect as any other sectional heater on the market-- and there is nothing to get out of order. Write for complete descriptions and illustrations of all Spencer Heaters.

Boilers, Smokeless
The Stanwood Corporation
. Established 1891 Manufacturers of Stanwood Smokeless Boilers for Heating and Power Service and Horizontal Return Tubular Boilers.
Cincinnati, Ohio
Stanwood Smokeless Boilers
Low Water Line--An important feature of Stanwood Smokeless Boilers is the low water level from 48 to 75 in. depending upon size. This valuable characteristic for a heating boiler gives it wider application and is particularly appropriate where there is limited head room in the basement.
Shell' cannot be bagged or burned nor can its circumferential seams, be cracked: Nowhere are these surfaces exposed to the fire. Boiler has no firebox or mudlegs to fill up and corrode: no staybolts to rust or break off; no crownsheet to drop if water is low. There is no internal flue that can collapse. High over-all efficiency due to high combustion and the smokeless performance of a down-draft furnace; low stack temperature, secured through rapid circulation, no air leaks and a minimum radiation loss. Primarily intended to burn bituminous coal with down-draft furnace. Can also be operated with oil, gas, anthracite or coke. Stanwood Smokeless Boilers are built in sizes from (3500 to 31,000 sq. ft. steam radiation) 29 to 250 hp. for working pressures of 15, 100, 125 and 150 Ills. Can be built for higher pressure if desired.

A Sixteen Section Progress Boiler
Thatcher "Elite" Red Enamel Jacketed Boiler ,
The Thatcher Progress Boiler has such an unusually low water line that it can be used in the shallowest cellars without need of a boiler pit.
In both Thatcher Round and Sectional Boilers, the "staggered fire travel" principle applies. This shunting of the flames back and forth assures complete com bustion of the gases, as proven by the low stack temperatures.
The Elite Boiler is lined with XVi in. asbestocel and also insulated by the dead air space between the boiler and the casing, making it unusually efficient.
The Thatcher Gothic Radiators were designed not only for greater beauty, but also for increased efficiency.

CAPITOL BOILERS
In choosing the correct size of boiler for any building there is one and only one consideration; will it properly heat the required number of square feet of radiation?
The net cast iron radiating surface that each type and size of Capitol Boiler will heat adequately has been determined and is guaranteed in writing.
When the needed radiating surface is known and contributing factors checked, the selection of the proper Capitol Boiler becomes a simple matter.
GUARANTEE
The United States Radiator Corporation will give with each Capitol Boiler sold, an absolute guarantee in writing that it will properly heat its full published amount of direct cast iron radiation provided only that the boiler is connected to a correctly installed system and that the recognized standard requirements are followed. Should any Capitol Boiler not meet these conditions, the additional capacity necessary will be supplied without charge by the United States Radiator Corporation.
Capitol Smokeless Boilers
"Smokeless" simply means complete combustion. And all of the carbon which forms smoke cannot be burned without the correct amount of air, oxygen.
The auxiliary inlets that supply air for complete combustion in Capitol Smokeless Boilers are not dependent upon the skill, guesswork or memory of the fireman.
Their size for each boiler rating is definitely determined in the Capitol Testing Laboratory and permanently fixed at the factory. They need no adjusting. The intensity of the fire itself governs the amount of air drawn in. To further assure accuracy, every Capitol auxiliary inlet is always an integral part of a single boiler section and is never placed between two sections where faulty assembly will cause a variance.

Capitol Boilers--Square Type
In this group of Capitol Boilers is presented a wide range-of sizes from the smallest, the 180 series designed to provide full boiler efficiency in the smallest space, to the largest, the WN 270 series designed and built for heavy duty work.
Many years of service in buildings of every nature throughout the United States have established a reputation for these boilers which is unsurpassed. Con tributing factors to the remarkable ease of operation and efficiency of performance are the spacious ash-pit; the correct propor tioning of draft openings; the long fire travel and the scientific shaping of the direct and indirect heating surfaces; the durable easy shaking and dumping grates; the big doors; the easily cleaned flues.
The exceptionally low water line of certain sizes permits foundations less deep than usual--an especially important economy where water, sand or rock makes excavating difficult and expensive.

Smokeless Type
Weil-McLain Long Firing Period Smokeless Boilers are now making smokelessness popular with every one--for three primary reasons:--
First: They require considerably less firing attention than smokeless boilers in general.
Second: They are simple to fire.
Third: They are not limited to free
burning types of soft coal for
effective operation.

Vinco for Internal Cleansing of New, Remodeled and Old Heating Systems
Vinco Superfine Boiler Leak Seal
What Vinco Is
Vinco (Latin. " I con quer"), a positively harm less insoluble powder cleanser for new. re modeled and old heating systems.
What Vinco Does
Vinco permanently re
moves all the oil. grease, scale and dirt from the
internal surfaces and from the boiler water without the labor of blowing boilers over the top.
By this thorough cleansing Vinco stops foaming, priming, surging, incomplete circu lation and poor radiation.
The heating system is thus enabled to function in the best manner permitted by the design.
Cracked boiler sections, which most often result
from priming, and sudden slugs of cooled water, are
prevented.
'
How Vinco Works
Each minute grain of Vinco powder absorbs several
times its own weight of oil, rust and dirt. These
larger grains of absorbed impurities then settle and
are blown through the bottom, according to direc
tions on each can.
.
Vinco for all New and Remodeled Systems
Gives the heating system a clean bill of health from the start and puts every well-engineered system into first class operating condition before turning over to the owner. Use these specifications:

PetrO Burners are all of the mechanical atom izing type and are built in such a number of models and sizes as to cover the heating field from the smallest residence to the largest com mercial or industrial heating plant. PetrO Burners are adaptable to any standard type of boiler or heater and can handle from a small heating load of 200 sq. ft. of steam radiation to 375 b.hp. with one burner.
DOMESTIC BURNERS
PetrO Domestic Burners are of the air turbine driven rotary cup type and are fully automatic and of the intermittent firing type. Stand ard Minneapolis-Honeywell con trols are used throughout. PetrO Domestic Burners are designed to burn commercial fuel oils having a gravity, of not less than 24 degrees Baume and a viscosity of not more than 50 seconds Saybolt Universal at 100 deg. fahr, Ignition is accom plished by means of either an electric spark or by means of a gaselectric type of ignition.
The PetrO Burner is designed and built to operate with a mini mum of mechanical and combustion sound. It consists essentially of a
centrifugal fan constructed with a shrouded aluminum runner, com pletely balanced and housed in a cast aluminum fan case. Mounted on the fan case and direct con nected to the fan runner is an electric motor. Also driven from the motor shaft either through reduction gearing or by direct con nection is a rotary gear oil pump. This assembly is mounted on a base built of grey cast iron in which is built a float chamber. Inserted through the base directly under the fan outlet is the burner gun, the forward end of which terminates in the air register which is installed flush with the boiler ashpit opening. The gun comprises the atomizing

cup which rotates in ball bearings, oil connection from float chamber to atomizing cup, lubricating device for ball bearings and air connection for conveying air from fan through the cup turbine and past vanes for mixing the air with the atomized oil in the combustion chamber.
Oil is drawn from the storage tank by the pump through a brass suction line and delivered into the float chamber where a constant level of oil is maintained. The pressure of the fan is communicated to the float chamber and acts to lift, the oil to the atomizing cup. The
air is delivered past the turbine blades of the cup for atomizing the oil and finally into the com bustion chamber for supporting combustion.
The standard installation in cludes a thermostat for controlling building temperature, a combustion safety control and a boiler, or furnace control for. limiting tem-. perature or pressure conditions at the boiler or furnace.
Service hot water may be heated from the main heating boiler through standard indirect heaters during both summer and winter.

PetjrQ OIL BURNERS
TYPE "A" INDUSTRIAL OIL BURNING EQUIPMENT
All PetrO Industrial Burners are designed to burn oils as heavy as 10 degrees Baume.
PetrO Type "A" Burners are of the air turbine driven rotary cup type and are installed
on boilers in connection with Type "A" registers through which secondary air for com
bustion is admitted and is controlled as to volume and direction. The primary air for
driving the turbine cup and atom
izing the oil is delivered from a
centrifugal fan which is a separate
unit. One fan may thereby be used
to operate either one burner or
several burners installed in a battery
of boilers. The oil pump is also
separate from the burner and one
pump may also be used for one
burner or a multiple installation of
burners. In Petroleum Heat and
Power Company's Combination Fan
and Pump Set both the fan and
pump may be operated as one unit
driven by a single motor. The fan
and pumps are obtainable as sepa
rate units also and for either electric
motor or steam turbine drive.
Design of the air register is such
that the flame can be shaped to suit
furnace dimensions and assure in
timate mixing of the air and atom
ized oil. High efficiencies are
thereby obtainable and can be
maintained at 80 per cent with
proper care of operation.
PetrO installation in Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. Building---One Boiler--Two-Type "A" Burners.
This type of burner possesses a wide range of flexibility as to the
capacity at which it can be fired and
without the necessity of changing
any parts. One or more burners may be installed under a boiler depending upon the
capacity to be developed.
It is adaptable to semi-automatic control wherein the rate of firing can be varied
between low and high capacity by means of an automatic boiler control which operates
from the boiler steam pressure. Oil is delivered to the atomizing cup at a relatively low
pressure which ranges between 10 and 35 pounds per square inch.
In burning the heavier grades of fuel oil it is necessary to preheat the oil so as to
reduce its viscosity as a means of obtaining the necessary fineness of atomization.
,
In PetrO Type "A" Burners the required preheat temperature is relatively low, as,
for burning oil having a gravity of 10 degrees Baum6, a preheat temperature of 170 deg.
fahr. is sufficiently high.

TYPE "B" INDUSTRIAL OIL BURNING EQUIPMENT
The PetrO Type "B" Burner consists of an air turbine driven
rotary cup, air register and fan with
direct connected motor, all of which
are assembled in one unit to be hinge
mounted on the boiler front. The
principles of atomization and means
of driving the turbine cup are the
same as employed in the Type "A"
Equipment. Oil is delivered to the
burner from an independent pump.
This unit is well adapted for in
stallation in heating or power plants
having one or two boilers and it also
lends itself particularly to semi
automatic boiler control.
The design of the air register
allows control of flame shape to the
combustion chamber being fired and
provides for securing the degree of
mixture between the air and oil
necessary for the most efficient
combustion.
,
This type of burner also possesses
a wide range of flexibility as to the
amount of oil- that can be burned
and it is not necessary to change

OIL BURNERS
MECHANICAL TYPE INDUSTRIAL OIL BURNING EQUIPMENT
Municipal Building New York City
The mechanical type burner atomizes the oil by pumping it at a relatively high pressure through atomizing grooves and an orifice located in the burner head. The oil is forced through the grooves in the atomizer disc toward the center where it enters tangentially and by means of which a rotary motion is imparted to it as it expands through the atomizing orifice.
The mechanical burner is also
installed in connection with an air register, the purpose of which is to control the volume and direction of the secondary air supply. The, degree of mixture between air and oil which is attainable through the proper setting of the register lends itself to operation at high efficiency of combustion.
Pumping and heating equipment may be located at some distance from the boiler or in a separate room.
By the installation of more than one burner in each boiler or the use of forced draft apparatus, boilers of any rating may be fired.
Variations in burner capacities are obtained by the use of different combinations of atomizer and ori fice'' discs. By the use of these combinations and variations in pressure capacities of from 50 to 300 b.hp. may be obtained from one burner under natural draft con ditions. By the use of forced draft this capacity may be increased to 400 b.hp.

fuel economy, and all without worry and attention. Equipment includes protectostat, thermostat and
boiler control.
'
ELECTRIC IGNITION: Positive electric ignition without magneto or coil box. High tension.trans-.
former with two insulated electrodes provide automatic, positive electric ignition and completely eliminates '
Radio Interference.
NOISELESS: Sound reduction to a minimum is accomplished by the simple engineering method of
utilizing perfectly machined, smooth running, properly built parts. The Kleen-Heet 800 is so designed
that the correct air volume moves at low velocity, thus eliminating--not merely subduing--combustion
noise.
EFFICIENT: Combustion efficiency is gained through the perfection of Kleen-Heet equipment.
Burner perfection is brought to its maximum through the use of the Winslow patented nozzles: nine
different nozzle tips to determine the size and shape of the flame: eight different nozzle stems to control
the volume of oil delivered. The resultant 72 tip-stem nozzle assemblies enable the engineer to select that
combination which gives maximum efficiency. In this way a proper flame can be produced regardless of the
length or width of the combustion chamber: this feature is a remarkable advance, in fact one of the greatest,
in the oil burner industry.
'
CAPACITY RANGE: This One burner covers the entire capacity range from 600 to 6800 sq. ft. of
steam load.
'
FUEL OIL: 28 deg. Baum6 or lighter fuel oil with flash-point between 150 to 190 deg. and a cold test
sufficient to resist the lowest temperatures to which it will be subjected, is the ideal fuel for this burner.
SERVICE: The burner is particularly characterized by the thoroughness of installation instructions
and the least possible number of working parts, each part the best obtainable without regard to cost of
production.
SMOKE ABATEMENT: Many cities are demanding the eliminating of fuel which increases the smoke
nuisance; oil is the logical smokeless fuel; the "805" Kleen-Heet meets those requirements.

AUTOMATIC CONTROL FOR UNIT HEATERS
The Thermoswitches
No. 6AR ContoswiUh List Price, $20
No. 155 Thermosteitch List Price, $18
The three Thermoswitches shown auto matically control the fan motors of Unit Heaters as the room temperature varies. They all include Mercury Switch contact members. The Convoswitch is particularly fitted for the control of factory rooms, warehouses, green houses, etc. The Nos. 64 and 135 are par ticularly arranged for rooms requiring closer temperature control and more pleasing ap pearance. These Thermoswitches should be used in auditoriums, offices or similar places. The No. 135 Thermoswitch is low in electrical capacity and should only be used with the No. 112 Magnetic Relay. It is, however, very sensitive and will regulate the temperatures to 1 deg. variation. The No. 64 is a 2 deg. instrument but is higher in electrical capacity and will control motors of ^ hp. or less (single phase) without a relay.
The Magnetic Relay is made in single or double pole types and will be found an ex cellent across-the-Iine starter for most of the sizes of motors used on Unit Heaters.
The Limit Controls
No. 64 TkermotmUh List Price, $24
No. lit Mogndie Rday list Price, $12
It Is not desirable to operate the Unit Heater unless Its coils are hot enough to warm the outgoing air. Therefore, with automatic operation we recom mend the use of a Limit Control. When wired in series with the Thermoswitch, the Limit Con trol prevents the Unit Heater from starting until it Is warm. However, when the Heater Is warm, the Limit Control, turns over the entire regulation to the Thermoswitch until such time as the Heater gets cold when the Limit Control again takes command and shuts it down.
No. 56 Aqiuumtch List Price, $17.50
Limit Controls are available
to operate either from the tem
perature of the steam pipe or
the pressure of steam at the
Unit Heater. The most popular
control is the No. 56R Aqua-
switch which can be strapped
on the pipe leading to the
Heater. No drilling or draining
Is necessary to install this
control and It works success
fully on either steam or hot
water systems.
_.
The No. 33R Pressureswitch
or No. 42R Vaporswltch can be
used where it is desired to con
trol the Unit Heater from
variations of the steam or
vapor pressure.

BUILDERS OF HEATING, VENTILATING, COOLING, PURIFYING, HUMIDIFYING AND
AIR WASHING EQUIPMENT; EXHAUST AND DRYING APPARATUS, MECHANICAL DRAFT AND BLAST, FANS AND BLOWERS OF ALL TYPES
BAYLEY PLEXIFORM FAN:
Used to supply air for heating systems or beating and ventilating systems for manufacturing and process industries, for drying systems, or for forced or induced draft systems for boiler plants.
The Ptexiform Fan is suitable for han dling cool or warm air, as well as high or low temperature gases. It wilt deliver the HiMiimim quantity of air in applications where medium or low
pressure is required. For applications where space is limited, or where eoonomy of
power is desirable, this fan is especially recommended. The Din wheel, of distinct Bayley design, has great strength
without excess weight. Due to its reinforced construction and equal distribution of stresses, vibration is reduced to a minimum. Crystallization of parts, so called, is thus avoided. large and unobstructed inlets and outlets, and the absence of arbitrary air cut-offs, insure free and noiseless delivery of air.
Bayley Plexiform Fans are furnished in either single or doable width wheel types of any required housing construction, and
discharge positive sleeve or ball bearings as specified.
TURBO AIR WASHER AND HUMIDIFIER:
The Bayley Air
Washing System is of
fered for all public and
industrial buildings,
where a central system
of air washing and
humidifying is desired.
Competitive air
washing and humidify?
ing equipment requires
frequent cleaning of the
spray nozzles, as the
particles of dirt in the
recirculated water The Bayley Turbo Air Wother Shew
rapidly clogs the ori ing Turbo Atomizer and Eliminator
fices.
_
The Turbo Atomizer used in the Bayley Washer, produces a
steady, fine spray. Water at low pressure is delivered to the
center of a rapidly revolving cone-shaped rotor provided with
atomising pins set in its periphery. This atomiser cannot clog,
requires very little attention, and will operate successfully under
tow water pressure. The spray is uniform, and there are never
any spaces in the Air Washer that are not completely filled with a
fine mist. BayleyTurbo AirWasher and Conditioners may be used
for washing, cooling, humidifying, or dehumidifying, as required.
CHINOOK HEA'WNG SECTIONS:
The Chinook Section is used
with fan type heating, ventilat
ing, and drying systems. It cir
culates either high or low pres
sure steam by gravity or under a
vacuum. The beater may also
be used to circulate hot water
for heating purposes, or cold
water for cooling purposes.
The Chinook base is of grey
cast iron, having walls of suf
ficient thickness to withstand a
working pressure of 175 lb.
per sq. in. The casting is
divided into two chambers-by
a horizontal partition. Steam
.
enters the lower- or steam chamber from which it rises through
5^-in. wrought pipes, which are located within the lH-in. wrought
pipes leading from the upper chamber. Thus the steam in the
steam p.b*mher passes up through the small pipes (which are open
at the top) into the larger pipes, where condensation takes place,
the water and air falling into the upper chamber and draining,
away through the return outlet. Each tube is evenly heated
through its entire length, and air binding cannot occur. The
Chinook is the only heater in which a leak can be repaired in the
middle of the tank without breaking steam connections or taking
down a single section.
Shipped assembled in smaller sizes, and knocked down in the larger units. May be installed in horizontal or vertical position.
BAYLEY TYPE EXHAUST FAN:
An exhaust unit for handling refuse from sawmills, planing mills, cotton gins, textile mills and wood working plants,
designed for high efficiency at moderate speed. Its outstanding features arc the blast wheel which is built up from an ac curately machined and balanced center, insuring well balanced wheel and making
replacement of accidentally broken blades a simple matter.
CHINOOKFIN HEATERS:
Chinookfin Heaters are constructed
along the lines original with the Bayley
Blower Company, as described under
Chinook Heating Sections.
The Chinookfin unit illustrated is '
particularly adapted to use in offices
and entrances to buildings, as well as
the main portions of industrial plants.
It may be connected to the outside air.
and thus will ventilate as well as heat
the space in which it is installed.
The heaters are sturdy, efficient,
easily installed, and occupy no valuable
floor or wall space. They require no
special structure to carry them, and
they may be attached to walls or col
umns, suspended from the floor above,
or from the beating main, as circum- Single Unit of the Sup-
stances will permit.
` ported Type with Air
It is not necessary when this heater Connection from the
is used, to recirculate air at room tern-
Floor Line
perature. Air directly from out of
doors may be led to the unit, thus making it a ventilating as well
as a heating unit. The entire unit is tested to a working pressure
of 80 lb.
The Bayley Blower Company offer in addition to the Chinook
fin described, larger sizes of industrial unit heaters. The well
known B.t.u. Heater is popular in railroad roundhouses and shops.
The I.C.U. Heater is also an industrial unit of somewhat fighter
construction, which is adapted to use in industrial buildings
of all sorts.
BAYLEY GYRO AIR AND GAS SCRUBBERS:
Bayley Air and Gas Scrubber is designed for cleaning boiler gas, blast furnace gas, and process gases of any j kind, either hot or cold. Hie scrub- \ bing medium is water, or if added H humidity is undesirable, a non volatile fluid.
Gas enters the scrubber through the scrubber wheel, which is conical in shape, and fitted with concentric rows of pins. Water at low pressure
is directed upon the center of the wheel and thrown by the centrifugal force of the rapidly revolving wheel
the water with the entrained solid
wJTTSww
matter from the gases against a splash. plate, which directs it to the bottom /#
of the scrubber. The cleansing of / Vv to 1700 deg.fahr.
air or gas is thus accomplished by passing air or gas through the
scrubber wheel in intimate contact' with water, so that dust
particles are thoroughly saturated with water and thrown off by
the scrubber wheel against the splash plate, finally to settle down
to the bottom of the scrubber tank.
~
The equipment is particularly adapted to all applications .
where dust may be recovered either for its value or because it
forms a nuisance. Typical applications are starch mills and
grain elevators.

PROPELLER FANS
Every Johnson Propeller Fan is "precision" built and
designed on correct ventilating and engineering practice and
principles. The outer ring, arms and motor platform are cast in one
piece, thus eliminating bolts and preventing frame from get
ting out of alignment, during shipment or installation.
40 motors used throughout and enclosed at front to
prevent grease, dirt, acid fumes and other injurious sub
stances from injuring windings. Motors are interchangeable,
so that the use of only one frame is required for direct
current or alternating current.
.
Furnished in sizes from 12 to 72 in., for any current or
voltage.
Send for catalog No. It, containing detailed information.
ROOF VENTILATORS (Motor Driven)
The design of Johnson Motor Driven Roof Ventilators,
embodies a new method of construction, so that all joints are
completely sealed, preventing leakage during inclement
weather.
The rounded shape or graduated slope of housing greatly assists drainage in wet weather, thereby preventing injury '
to fan and motor.
Built in single or double compartment types. In double
compartment type, the motor, being enclosed in a separate
but easily accessible chamber, is protected from fumes or acids.
Writefor bulletin No. t5, which containsfull data and specifications.
VOLUME BLOWERS
Johnson Blowers are carefully constructed of the best ma
terials. They are designed not only to be able to obtain maxi
. mum efficiency, but also, flexibility and ease of installation.
The construction admits of eight different position of
discharges, both right and left hand.
Discharge velocity--in Johnson ratings--are based on the distance from the point of cut-off to the nearest point of the
outer scroll. Built for any type of drive. Sizes from No. 30
are regularly equipped with Self-Aligning Ball Bearings.
Capacities range from 225 c.f.m. at in. static pressure to
. 161,000 c.f.m. at 2 in. static pressure.
Made in wheel diameters from 6 to 90 in.
Catalog No. S5 gives complete data.
UNIT HEATERS
Johnson Unit Heaters cover a wide range of sizes and
types, than can be obtained in any other make. The Propeller Fan Types are built for either ceiling sus
pension or floor mounting. The High Velocity Blower Type
Unit Heaters cover a wide range, for either ceiling suspension
or floor mounting.
The method of "High Velocity" Unit Heating was
originated and pioneered by Johnson.
This method adequately meets the requirements for
heating interiors where ceilings are high and areas large.
With this method fewer unit heaters per area are required
and quicker heat in a given area is obtained.

Wing Featherweight Unit Heaters
The Wing Featherweight Unit Heater, expressly designed for overhead installation, makes available for any industrial building a heating system that leaves all floor and wall space absolutely unobstructed. The success of this system has been proven by the satisfactory operation of several hundred units in industrial buildings of every kind and description.
The installation of Wing Featherweight Unit Heaters is extremely simple, due to their light weight and small dimen sions. For instance, a unit equal in heating effect to 12,000 sq. ft. of direct radiation, weighs only 332 lbs. A few advan tages attending the installation of Wing Featherweight Unit Heaters may be briefly summarized as follows:
The heated air from the units, located at or near the ceiling or roof, is delivered directly downward toward the floor, heating the working level first. Chilled areas, caused by opening of doors, are almost instantly brought back to normal temperature by this downward method of heating.
Since the air recirculated by the heaters is taken from the upper spaces and delivered to the lower levels, it is evident that an active circulation of air from the ceiling to the floor is continuously maintained and that, therefore, excessive heat is not allowed to accumulate in the upper spaces, as is the case with any system of heating that allows the heat to rise to the ceiling immediately.
The steam and return lines are carried entirely overhead, eliminating costly pipe trenches which are necessary when radiation is placed at or near the floor.
All vertical type heaters are furnished with ball bearing motors that do not require attention more than once a heating season.

Methods of Installation
The drawings below show typical high ceiling
and low ceiling installations, together with a plan
view illustrating the general distribution and diffu
sion of the heated air from the unit heaters. The
first illustration shows the high ceiling type heater
installed 30 or more feet from the floor, above the
travelling crane, the heater arranged so that the
left lower portion of the building is also heated.
The third illustration shows a typical multi-story
building heated with Wing low-ceiling type Unit
heaters. The column of heated air leaves the
heater with sufficient velocity to strike the floor
with considerable force from this point, but by the aid of adjustable diffusers the column is divided
Five Wing Heaters in this Shop
and directed so that no objectionable velocity is felt at the head line. The best and
most economical installation of Wing Featherweight Unit Heaters is when they are
placed close to the roof or ceiling.

Wing Buckwheat Burning Blowers
Wing-Scruplex Fan
Wing Motor-driven Blowers are installed in heating boilers so
that low cost Buckwheat coal can be burned with great savings in
fuel bills and with better heating results. They are also used in
industrial plants where motor drive is preferred to turbine drive.
The Wing E M Blower is a simple compact unit of motor, fan,
and casing, of the same general design as the Wing Turbine
Blower, the first individual forced draft fan blower ever built.
Wing units are either`set
directly in the boiler brick
base or are equipped with mounting feet or base and
__ . .
Wtng Motor Blower
connected to the ashpit by a short duct in the case
of cast iron boilers^
Motors are fully enclosed and dustproof. Because
of this feature they stand up for years in the dusty
atmosphere of boiler rooms without repair. Another
feature is variable speed control; this permitsofregu
lation without the use of dampers and saves power.
Booklet 46 describes Wing motor-driven units.
Information also available on Wing turbine-
driven units.

YORK UNIT FANS FOR SUPPLY OR EXHAUST VENTILATION
Advantages:
Easier to install. Fans and motor.are a unit, needing no separate support.
No platform required--may be sus pended by.rods.
Both fan and motor are equipped with ball bearings, requiring lubrication only twice a year.
Takes rectangular duct. Can be installed in a straight run of duct, work without an offset. Due to the
multiple fan assembly, the width and depth of the unit are less than for any other fan of the same capacity.
Vertical or Horizontal:
The 400 series units are designed for vertical installation. The 600 series units are designed for horizontal installation. The 600 series have the same ratings as the 400 series. Example: the 601-F has the same rating as the 40I-F.

Detailed information, samples, and descriptive literature may be obtained on application to any of these offices or representatives.
Armstrong's Cork Machinery Isolation is a special grade of corkboard for absorb ing noise and vibration under moving machines such as fans, motors, etc.
The natural resilience of cork and the fact that it does not "set" - under pressure nor harden with age make it especially suitable for this use.
Another advantage of Armstrong's Cork Machinery Isolation is that, being a manu factured product, its density can be varied to suit different conditions.' -Armstrong's is made in six grades, or densities, from 1.1 to 1.66 lb. per board foot. By adapting the grade to weight and type of machine, much better results are obtained than by using a single grade for all installations.
Armstrong's Cork Machinery Isolation is made in boards 12 by 36 by 1, \ Yi, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 in. thick. The standard boards may be sawed or cut into the desired shape or size as readily as lumber; and where large pads are required, they can be made in sections and cemented together.
The density and thickness to be used cannot be determined accurately until such factors as the weight, speed and character of the machine to be isolated are known. Generally speaking, the grades which should be used under different classes of machines are as follows:
Small fans, motors, generators, etc____ 1.10 to 1.20 Large fans, medium size motors and
generators, light machines and ma chine tools, etc.1.25 to 1.33 Heavy motors and generators, large machines and machine tools, en gines. etc.1.50 to 1.66
Two methods of installing Armstrong's Cork Machinery Isolation are usually fol lowed. In the first, the foundation pits are lined with Armstrong's Cork Ma chinery Isolation on the bottom and sides. The foundation proper is then poured in on top of the cork. In the second, the cork is placed .between the base of the machine and the foundation, floor or ceil ing, to which it is fastened. See figures below.

Front Rank furnace is riveted gas tight . and dust proof and even when abused
remains so; is smooth, offering slight re sistance to the air. Where damp soot can lie during the non-firing period--bottom of radiator; connections between combus tion dome and radiator; feed and ash pit pouches--these parts are of grey iron on Front Rank. The steel parts are Copper Bearing Steel.
First two figures of number are diameter of casing. .
The above data in connection with the Standard Code, published as a part of the Chapter on Gravity Warm Air Heating, will enable the Archi tect, Engineer or Contractor to specify the correct size Front Rank furnace for any project.
Any Front Rank furnace installed by an authorized dealer according, to the Standard Code is guaranteed to maintain an average temperature of 70 deg. in zero weather.
Front Rank has great radiating surface in proportion to grate area; radiator is . supported by brackets and does not add weight to combustion dome; so designed that soot, etc. drops to bottom where it is easily cleaned out; is lined with refractory material which becoming incandescent ignites solid fuel near edge of grate.
Front Rank Heating Systems consist of this furnace installed according to the Standard Code. Authorized Dealers are located near you.

1916 Builders Bldg. Chicago
Circulair is a new method of heating for use with hot water, steam or vapor systems which economically produces a uniform, comfortable, healthful temperature by scientifically using induced circulation of air.
The Circulair Heat Unit uses only a fraction of the space required normally for room heating equipment and consists of a carefully de signed seamless copper tube on which are pressed die-stamped fins evenly spaced. It is mounted in a heavy metal protective casing.
Circulair Units are available in various widths and lengths and may be concealed in walls, under windows or in partition walls with high stacks. The higher the stack, within practical limits, the greater the capacity of the heater. Also furnished in cabinets.
The concealed Circulair heater is usually plastered over but removable plaster wall panel may be supplied to provide ready acess to heater, piping and valve. This panel is plastered on the job when the wall is plastered and is invisible when the wall is finished.
Circulair Heat Units are rated in equivalent square feet of cast iron radiation. All ratings are based on 240 B.t.u. per square foot and were established by actual condensation tests. Capacities depend upon (1) Type of Heater, (2) Length of' Heater and (3) Height of stack.
The type of heater to be used is determined by the thickness of wall or partition in which it is to be installed. The No. 4 heater is designed for use in walls between 2 % 4 in. studding; the No. 6 between 2 x 6 in. studding; the No. S between 2 z 8 in. studding and the No. 16 in window seats, under floors and in walls permitting a recess 16 in. deep. The Circulair Cabinet is furnished in two types: Standard and Double Capacity. The No. 8 Heater is used in the Standard Cabinet, and the No. 16 Heater in the Double Capacity Cabinet.
The Standard and Double Capacity Cabinets are made in three heights. 20, 26 and 38 inches, and seven lengths of 19, 25. 31, 37. 43, 49 and 55 inches, a total of 42 sizes with a wide* range of capacities to meet any heating requirement. All Standard Cabinets are 9 inches deep and Double Capacity 17 inches deep. For a given size the Double Capacity Cabinet has twice the capacity of the Standard Cabinet.
All Cabinets are finished in priming coat unless otherwise specified. Special mahogany, walnut or oak wood grain finish can be furnished at an additional charge.
The concealed types are readily adapted to any decorative scheme, have the advantage of permitting full use of floor space and at the

same time secure a uniform distribution of heat throughout the zone occupancy so that the temperature
variation between floor and ceiling is only 5 deg.
'
Circulair in the cabinet types affords all of the advantages of this improved method of heating and fits
in nicely with any decorative treatment desired and in the use of this scientific method of heating the occupants of a building reap the benefit of comfort, health, convenience and economy.
Engineering data sheets with piping details are available to architects, engineers and heating contractors. Examples of capacity tables for several styles of heaters are shown. Additional data sheets for A. I. A. file 30c4 cover the complete line of Circulair Convection"Heaters.

Waterbury, Conn.
A NEW PRODUCT of the HOFFMAN SPECIALTY CO., INC.
An Entirely Different Method of Home Heating
will be announced early in 1929
The new Hoffman Specialty is dis
tinguished for its ability to warm the lower
part of a room first, and to keep more of its
heat in the comfort zone of the room, from the
floor to the breathing line, than it does in
the uppers unoccupied part of the room near
the ceiling. In doing this it partly offsets the
law that warm air rises.
'
Hoffman Engineers started with the fact
that electricity offers a one hundred percent
efficient source of heat. But being heating .
engineers of long experience, they developed
this device along different lines than electrical
engineers have ever attempted. Their first
step was to jacket the electric heating ele-
inent, starting circulation and convection.
Their second step was to speed up the process
by means of a motor and air turbine. Their
third step was to change the path of warm air
from vertical to horizontal. The resulting re
circulation of warm air near the floor is shown
by the chart at the bottom of the next page.
When its development as a heating appli
ance was complete, a final step was to enclose
the Heating Element in a small, good-looking
useful table. It may be moved about easily
within the room or from room to room and
may be used as a table, even when in opera
tion.-
.. .
A thermostat supplied as optional equip
ment,; provides automatic temperature con
trol, sensitive to a three degree change, and
may be set to maintain any temperature de
sired.
The operation of the turbine keeps the heat-
irig element at black heat rather than red hot.
.This, makes the Heating Element perfectly
safe and prevents it from burning out. If
the turbine stops for any reason, the burning.:
out of the heating element is prevented.
Warm air circulates through the Heating Element at the rate of 102 cu. ft. per minute without noticeable draft. The entire air con tent of the average room passes through it every 15 to 20 minutes. It has passed ex haustive laboratory tests and has been in service tests in approximately one hundred homes for over a. year with entire satisfaction.
This new heating device will be made in various sizes from 1 to 4, KW capacity.
It can be used for complete home heating in mild climates or in localities with low elec tric rates and for auxiliary or occasional heat ing in colder climates.

Note the path of warm air. circulating from a typical steam radiator installation. Note also the
temperature readings at the floor, breathing line . and ceiling. Compare these temperatures with
those in the diagram oh the opposite page.

TRANE HEAT CABINETS AND CONCEALED HEATERS
The Trane Company, pioneers in the field of convection heating, has designed three types of Heat Cabinets and Concealed Heaters to take the place of the conventional cast iron radiators on systems of every type. These three types--Heat Cabinets, Concealed Heaters, and Under-Window Concealed Heaters, make it possible to equip old as wellas new buildings with this advanced equipment that has so many heating and fuel saving advantages.
HEAT CABINETS
The Heat Cabinets are designed for installation in the
room. A special cabinet of high grade furniture steel is
placed over the heating unit and acts as a chimney to
draw the air up over the unit and discharge it into the
room parallel to the floor. These Cabinets are furnished
with a special priming coat of paint that serves as a base .
for any special finish that may be required to blend
Trane Heat Cabinet
with the interior decorations. Heat Cabinets are furnished in two styles--standard and double capacity.
Positive heat control is obtained by use of an adjustable damper. Piping connections
the same as on radiators--one inlet and one outlet.
CONCEALED HEATERS
Trane Concealed Heaters are installed between the
walls. All heating equipment is out of sight and
out of the way leaving floor space free for furniture.
A sheet metal stack is used to connect the copper
heating unit and the outlet boot and grille. Ca
pacities depend upon the length and width of heater
and height of stack. Heaters furnished in 18, 24,^
36 and 48 in. lengths and in 4, 6; 8 and 12 in. widths
to fit in walls of standard construction. Heat con
trol is obtained through use of shutter arrangement
installed back of heat outlet grille. Heaters are v
installed back of the baseboard and are always
accessible.
'
The Trane patented heating units used in connection with Heat Cabinets, Concealed Heaters, and Under-Window Concealed Heaters, are of copper construction. They are furnished in 4, 6, 8 and 12 in. widths.

The TraneCompany
Heal Cabinets
TRANE UNDER-WINDOW CONCEALED HEATER
The Trane Under-Window Concealed Heater is a complete heating unit especially designed for installation in the walls under windows although it can be installed in other parts of the room with equal ease.
Complete, the unit consists of a' metal wall box which fits between the studding and guides the heated air out into the room; a Trane patented copper heating unit; and a front metal panel which covers the front of the box and does away with the neces sity of plastering in front of the unit.
Sizes.--The wall boxes are furnished in lengths of 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, and 54 in., and in the same multiples of heights. They are available in widths to accommodate 4, 6, 8, and 12 in. heating units.
Construction.--The wall box and front panel are made of heavy gauge steel prop
erly reinforced. The all copper heating unit is essentially'the same, in construction as the unit used in.the Heat Cabinet and Standard Concealed Heater.
Heat Control.--Heat Control can be obtained in two ways--valve on the sup ply connection or by shutter control at heater outlet. Both methods give instan taneous response.
Installation.--The Under-Window Con cealed Heater is meeting with great ap proval from architects, engineers, and heat ing contractors because of the simplicity of the installation. All that is necessary is .to slip the wall box in the opening left by the carpenter, nail it to the studding, place the heater on the lugs, make piping con nections and screw on the front metal panel.

SKINNER BROS. DIRECT FIRED HEATER
Skinner Bros. Direct Fired Heater is the outgrowth of a demand for equipment having the versatilities and efficiencies of the Unit Heater and not requiring a boiler. Buildings that are heated intermittently; buildings whose cost or use will justify only the least expensive heating apparatus; isolated buildings to which it is impractical to pipe steam for heating purposes, but which require warmth in winter; and buildings under construction in cold weather are found to be excellently suited to the Direct Fired Heater.
For fuel, coal, coke, wood, gas, or oil may be used.

SKINNER BROS. REVOLVING SIPHON VENTILATORS
A roof ventilator designed to embrace the last word in efficiency and at the same time be so simple in construction that the possibilities of getting out of order are entirely eliminated. Skinner Bros. Revolving Siphon Ventilators, therefore, have shown them selves to require no attention whatsoever, once they are installed.
Operation: The slightest movement of air exerting pressure on the vane at the top
moves the ventilator head to a position in which the open face is at right angle with the
direction of the wind. In this position the air passes through the immovable shutter or
louvres putting into operation the siphon principle which causes the foul air or fumes in
the room below to be siphoned up the
and out through the face of the ventilator.
Rain falling directly downward runs off the top, and when the rain or snow is blown in a slanting direction the face of the venti lator is automatically turned from the windward. Ball bearings and a hardened steel pivot bearing minimize all possible friction. A counter-balanced damper in the stack closes the ventilator when desired. Stocked.in galvanized iron in 26 standard sizes, and made of sheet copper on order.
Siphon Ventilators operating in the average wind velocity of the ten largest cities in the United States. The wind velocities used are those reported by the U. S. Weather Bureau. Therefore, these figures are accurate for normal weather conditions in various parts of the country.

The tubes are of heavy brass, tinned both inside and out, resisting rust and corrosion. The header plates are
of heavy gauge copper. The tanks are cast in special
bronze alloy. The motor rests in a saddle, supported by two steel
arms. Between the supporting steel band which sur
rounds the motor, and the motor itself is a quarter-inch band of cork which absorbs all vibration eliminating
rattle and noise. Every part is easily accessible--the entire heater is
the simplest made, and factory tested under 100 lb. steam of 200 lb. hydrostatic pressure.

THE HEATING UNIT
convection through horizontal tubes
has been many times proved to be the most efficient known. This, plus the great advantage of positive circula tion afforded by McQuay Radiators results in far more efficient heating.
A distinctive McQuay development con sists of a series of flat, horizontal' tubes, securely held in place by copper fins and firmly nested in bronze headers.
The tubes are tinned inside--the entire unit being immune from rust and cor-, rosion. It will not "clog."
' Indestructible--The patented "Lock Seam" tubing eliminates any chance for seam separations or blow outs.
The entire radiator is practically inde structible.
Simple to Install--`The shipping weight of McQuay Cabinet Radia tors is approximately 1.6 lb. for each square foot of radiation--a decided advantage when compared with the weights of equivalent cast iron radiation.
No "on the job" assembling is needed. Pipe connections are made with the heat ing unit, and the cabinet is then placed on it.
Low in Cost--Ease of installation, con siderably less weight, and easier handling,
keep the cost of McQuay Cabinet Radia
tors low.
.
V
Actually--as proved in thousands of installations--the total cost installed is
only slightly more than the cost of equiva lent radiation of the old type.

. ' TRADE MARK
The Herman Nelson Wedge Core Radiator has proven its worth as a practical means for air warming, air cooling, air condensing, air drying, etc., as demonstrated by-the many installations
in these various applications.
The radiator consists of a steamway or core upon which smooth, flat surface plates are firmly wedged in parallel, causing a tight metal to metal contact. As the core or steamway is cast of a ' special homogeneous metal in one piece, the
liability of leakage is eliminated. It is leak-proof and rust-proof, and has no joints of any kind. It provides a construction that will withstand expansion
and water hammer strains without injury.
The core extends the entire length of the radiator and is tapered in cross section having an average thickness 1 in. and a 4)4 per cent taper. The core is 6*54 in. wide and the walls which are A in. thick are provided with stays through the middle on 4 in. centers.
The radiators are regularly tested to .a hydrostatic pressure of 250 lb. and sections are selected at random from stock for a test of 500 lb. hydrostatic pres sure. Operating pressures are guaranteed up to 150 lb.
DIMENSIONS

.
$1? . LIGHT WEIGHT AND PORTABLE
Due to the comparatively light weight of Herman Nelson Wedge Core Radiator Sections.-they may be supported from the supply pipe headers--but where a large number of sections are so carried, adequate provision should be made for sup` porting the pipe lines. The weights vary somewhat, depending upon the spacing and size of the sections, but if an allowance of 31 lb. per square foot of face area in the block is allowed for each row, it will be sufficient to enable the proper deter
mination of piping supports.
The Herman Nelson Corporation Engineering Department will appreciate an opportunity to cooperate on any problems
. involving this radiator.

Universal Concealed and Cabinet Heaters
FOR HOMES
With the Universal cabinet heater, the tem perature of the floor is practically the same as at the ceiling--an impossibility with cast iron radiation. With cast iron radiators, tempera tures are always considerably higher at theceiling than the floor. Floor temperatures are seldom satisfactory, as the proper tem perature is usually maintained for

body comfort at about the .height of a chair, leaving. the floor chilly, uncomfortable and often a frequent cause of colds and sickness. The Universal Cabinet Heater corrects this condition.
Cleanest Form of Heating for Homes: The Universal cabinet heater discharges the heat outward and into the room, instead of against walls and ceilings, as with direct
radiation. This prevents the dirt streaks and soiled draperies so pre valent with direct radiation.

"PeerVent" and "Peerless" Heating and Ventilating Units, for Schools, Hospitals, Libraries, Churches, Dormi tories, Club Rooms, Theaters, Banks, Offices, Auditoriums and other Buildings where many people con gregate.
"Peerless" Industrial Heating UNITS (used in place of cast iron radiators), for Factories, Garages and other Industrial Buildings.
"PeerVent" and "Peerless" Heating-Ventilating Units
This Company makes two types of heat ing and ventilating units--"PeerVent" and "Peerless"--both intended for the same service but differing in design and construction. Only the PeerVent Unit is illustrated in these pages. Information about Peerless Units will be sent on request.
boiler tubes are expanded into the tube sheets, and the radiator assembly does not contain a single soldered, welded, brazed or gasketed joint. Test pressure, 150 lb.; operating pressure, 100 lb.
Another improvement in the new PeerVent Unit is the noiseless alternating current motor. This motor is of a design which has been developed after years of research and experimentation. It is mounted by means of a specially designed spring suspension, which precludes the possibility of noise caused by the trans mission of phase vibrations. This motor is equipped with an auto-transformer, an integral part of the motor, for providing speed regulation within limits as close as obtainable with direct current motors. This feature saves power, as less current is consumed at low speeds.
The new PeerVent motor improve ments are the final step in placing the unit system on a strictly unit basis. The motorgenerator outfit is eliminated. The unit motors operate independently and there is no expense for current except for the unit or units that are actually in service. A single room can be ventilated without the operation of any apparatus other than the PeerVent Unit. There is also a .con siderable saving in the elimination of the first cost and operating cost of the motorgenerator equipment.
Features of the Improved
"PeerVent" Unit
The PeerVent Unit of today has many important improvements, including the new PeerFin radiator. This radiator con sists of two large copper alloy tubes, each surrounded by a series of closely spaced fins, also of copper alloy. The fins are embedded tightly into the tubes, so that under any conditions of expansion and con traction the fins and tubes are in perfect contact and there can be no loss of efficiency in the transfer of heat from tube to fin. The tubes are expanded into malleable iron headers, in the same manner that

Other improvements in the new Peer Vent Unit include a single-leaf damper which takes the place of the former inter connected fresh air and recirculation dampers, eliminating mechanical linkage. There are no mid-way positions of this damper: either the full volume, of fresh air enters the unit or there is a complete .recirculation of the air in the room. This damper, as well as the mixing damper, has been provided with improved bearings. The mixing damper can be equipped with any type of automatic temperature control.
New fan housings have been designed, providing larger discharge capacity at con siderably lower tip speeds.
The mixing damper, radiator, motor and fan assembly, base assembly and air filter are all easily removable without the use of tools. The air filter, which is not included as part of the unit equipment, can be of any make preferred and can be installed after the unit has been erected, without any changes in the unit. The filter rests upon supports below the motor and fan assembly, sliding in and out of the unit like the drawer of a desk. With the filter in this position the air is cleaned before it reaches the fans, radiator, etc., and the dirt therefore does not reach these parts.
The new PeerVent Unit can be equipped with a positive-action PeerTherm Con trol, which automatically prevents the

The air filter (B) is extra eqxripment, not included with the Unit, and can be ofany make specified. The new PeerFin Radiator (3) is an important improvement.

intake of cold air at any time when the room temperature falls below 65 deg. (or any other predetermined temperature within a range of 15 deg.)
Three types of PeerVent Units have now been standardized, and one or another of them will meet practically any archi tectural requirements, including installa tions in existing buildings. Six different
types of control have also been standardized, including automatic control throughout, hand control throughout, and various combina tions of hand and automatic regulation.

UNIT HEATERS
Trane Unit Heaters are especially designed for industrial installations but due to their
quiet operation they can also be used in offices, assembling rooms, textile mills or
wherever large open spaces are to be heated.
These units use an extended surface copper heating unit with the prime surface so arranged as to keep the entire secondary surface at an even, maximum temperature. Steam flows through vertical tubes which are rolled into cast iron headers. Fan of special Trane design 1, which delivers a large quantity of air at high velocity 1, is used. Motors of standard manufacture, enclosed type, are used on all heaters unless otherwise specified. Unit Heaters available for connection to outside duct work or recirculating
boxes as well as for ceiling suspension.

3. Heats large floor areas quickly.
4. A single Unit of correct capacity will heat uni-
formly a floor space up to 60 ft. by 200 ft.
Comparatively few Units are required even for
large plants.
5. The work of installation is reduced. Mains are
shortened, and fewer branches and fittings are
needed.
'
6. Fuel is saved through less overheating of upper areas; a shorter heating-up period; an easier control of room temperature.
7. Cost of complete installation will ordinarily range from 10 to 50 per cent below cost of direct radiation, pipe coils or central blower system.
8. York'3 large production makes possible a superior product at a relatively low price.
Heat-Diffusing Units, Housed Fan Type:
Five sizes and capacities are standard: Nos. 322, 333, 334, 344, 353. Sizes vary from 18 to 30 in. in width, 3H ft. to 7 ft. in length. All units can be used on steam or hot water at pressures from 0 to 200 lbs. All are tested at 1000 lbs. hydrostatic pres sure. Fresh air intakes and regulating dampers can be furnished at small extra charge.
Note.--These Units can be supplied for suspen sion where it is impossible to place them on the floor.
Operating Economies:
Kroy Unit Heaters, Disc Fan Type:
1. High-velocity heat diffusion holds heat in the working zone until its principal energy has been utilized.
2. Reduces overheating of upper areas.
Five sizes are available for the few applications where this type Unit is suitable. Capacities range from 70,000 to 239,000 B.t.u. or the equivalent of 277 to 945 sq. ft. of Direct Radiation.

Note,--It is understood that the specified steam pressure is to be maintained on the heating surface. A suitable pipe line drop must be added in determining the pressure to be carried at the boiler. When air
is to enter the umt at a temperature below freezing the steam pressure on the heating surface should be maintained at not less than 5 lb.

Carrier-Lyle Corporation
39 Cortlandt Street, New York, N. Y. Affiliated with the Carrier Engineering Corporation
THE CARRIER WEATHERMAKER
A SCIENTIFIC AIR-CONDITION ING SYSTEM FOR HOMES
Compact new gas-burning unit for homes introduces a warm-air heating system that is clean; positive in circulation of air; healthful; and automatic in operation.
Carrier-Lyle Corporation
Heating and Air Conditioning Units
A complete heating and air-conditioning system
for homes in winter. Approved by American Gas Association Testing Laboratory. Made to take summer cooling unit, (now under develop ment), without change in
present system. -
The Carrier Weathermaker makes indoor weather to order.
1. It controls the moisture content of
the air, maintaining a fixed, healthful
relative humidity.
2. It warms the air, using manufactured
or natural gas as fuel.
3. It filters the air, removing dust, dirt
and bacteria.
4. It circulates the air by centrifugal
blower, insuring positive, uniform distribu
tion of heat.
5. It operates automatically.
In controlling warmth, humidity and air
motion, the Carrier Weathermaker repre
sents an original and constructive improve
ment in house-heating.
Development--The Carrier Weather
maker is an adaptation, for domestic use,
of the .well-known Carrier Systems now
operating in nearly 3000 theatres, stores,
factories and other large buildings.
Operation--The simplicity of the
Carrier Weathermaker is indicated by the
diagram on opposite page. Air enters
through return duct (A)--passes through
filters (B) into blower (C) and is forced out under uniform pressure into heat-inter changer (E), where it is warmed. It rises to (E), where humidity is furnished by humidifier (G); then passes into mixing chamber (H) and is returned to rooms thrdugh warm-air ducts. Circulation is
continuous and positive. Combustion--The heat is supplied by
gas burner (J). Combustion chamber and gas passages are entirely separate from the air passages.
The Carrier Weathermaker operates with an overall efficiency of 90 per cent.
Temperature Regulation--The ther mostatic control mechanism (M) operates a throttling valVe on the gas line. It regu lates the gas supply to the demand for heat.
Protective Controls--A thermostatic pilot control (P) operates to'close the main gas supply should pilot go out or gas-flow fail; a heat-limiting control (N) turns off the gas supply before overheating, through
any cause, can occur.
650
Filters--The air is cleaned by oilcoated, metallic-fiber filters.
Humidity Control--Moisture is added to the circulating air by the humidifier (G).. Once adjusted to provide the desired relative humidity of the house atmosphere, the humidifier functions automatically.
Positive Circulation of Air--The blower provides forced circulation of air
throughout the house. It is indirectly driven by a separately-mounted electric motor.
Non-corroding Construction--The combustion chamber and interchanger are made from a special nickel-chrome steel which is leak-proof and impervious to rust and acids.
Space Economy--The forced distri bution of air permits the Carrier Weather maker to be placed anywhere in the cellar, with resulting economy of space. It
permits, also, the use of smaller ducts and long runs.

METHOD OF CALCULATION FOR D-I SANITARY VENTILATING RADIATOR UNITS
The following method of calculation for amount of air required is based on State requirements of Indiana, and will naturally vary in states where the requirements are different. However, the general principles of the method will apply to all cases.
1. The amount of Direct Radiation
installed, which is not enclosed with the Air Diffusers, is that required for the ex posed wall and glass. This Radiation is determined in the following manner:
2. Multiply.square feet of glass surface in room by 89, if from zero to 70 deg., or by 99 if from --10 deg. to 70 deg.

5. To determine the number of Wall Boxes required, first determine the number of pupils for the room. This can be ob tained by dividing the cubical contents of the room by 225 (allowing 225 cu. ft. of contents per pupil).
6. Multiply the number of pupils by the

This whole problem has now been simplified by the invention of the Grinnell Equiflo Valve.
The Grinnell Equiflo Valve for forced hot water heating permits: .
A Revolutionary Development in Forced Hot Water Heating-- One of the chief difficulties in the way of a broader use of forced hot water heating systems with their many important advantages has been the determination of pipe sizes by the complex and arduous method of calculating frictional re sistances. Failure to do this, plus easily possible installation mistakes has resulted in many unsatisfactory
1. The calculation of pipe sizes for this system by simple tables, similar to those commonly used in connection with the design of vacuum steam systems.
2. Change in locations of radiators or piping during installation to take care of iocal construction conditions without re calculation of pipe sizes.
The Grinnell Equiflo Valve for
forced hot water heating accom
plishes:
.
1. More nearly perfect equalization of flow to every radiator than has ever been

practical by even the most careful calcu lation of pipe sizes. Size or location makes no difference.
2. The introduction of sufficient fric tional resistance to completely overcome that trouble so pronounced in most forced hot water heating systems which is due to the well-known war between pump head (a constant) and the gravity or temperature head (a variable). This insures absolutely equalized circulation at all temperatures.
3. Lower pumping costs.
The Grinnell Equiflo Valve:
1. Serves as the regular shut-off valve for each radiator. It is of the packless type.
2. Is so designed that after the installa tion is completed a multiple-orifice car tridge or tube, having a definite resistance pre-determined by Grinnell Company, is dropped into place in the valve.
In order to obtain all the ad vantages of this new development, it is only necessary for the Con sulting Engineer to specify that each radiator shall be equipped with a Grinnell Equiflo Valve. This device is marketed through the regular heating trade, and proper results are guaranteed by the standing of Grinnell Company in the hot water heating field.
Grinnell Triple (XXX) Products:
The growth and development of
super-power demands a line of fab
ricated piping materials as definite
and specific in its quality as the
standardized manufactured prod

line is Grinnell Triple XXX. Due
to its very nature, quality embraces
design, manufacturing standards
and workmanship.

Every item in this, line has
stamped on it three "X's" and
underneath 40-60-90 representing
400, 600 or 900 lb. working steam

Any piece of material bearing
that stamp can unhesitatingly be
used for the pressures indicated.
All joints in the Grinnell Triple
XXX line are machined out of a rough lap which may be forged to
twice the thickness of the pipe or
seamless tubing. A specially built
lap joint machine, accomplishes this tremendous forging operation
without changing the metal struc

Grinnell Adjustable Pipe Hangers
ONE of the chief advantages of Grinnell Adjustable Hangers is that they permit adjustment of pipe lines after installation, thus obviating the necessity of turn buckles or the removal of hangers. And their time and trouble-saving qualities during installation are equally exceptional. On this and the following page are shown a few Grinnell Hangers of particular interest to heating engineers. The Grinnell Hanger Book, entitled "Safeguarding Heating and Service Pipe Lines," however, illustrates and describes the complete line. Engineers, Architects and Draftsmen will find a vast amount of useful information in this book.

Grinnell Thermolier
THE Grinnell Thermolier is a modem development of unit heaters. This principle of heating is rapidly becoming standard for use in many kinds of buildings: The reason for this may be briefly stated:
(1) Low initial cost, (2) economy of operation, (3) adaptability, (4) maintenance, (5) depreciation.
Copper Housing Makes for Durability and Fine Appearance
This unit is the result of two years' intensive investigation and test by the Grinnell organization
which Tor 70 years has been recognized as a leader in industrial heating work. No pains have been spared to make it a most dependable, efficient and long-lived unit. Heat is obtained from brass-finned, seamless, copper U-tubes rolled into a cast-iron
header. No solder is used for joints and there are no flat horizontal surfaces to catch dirt.
One model 800 Thermolier may be used to heat a floor area of 500 to 5000 sq. ft. Units may be controlled manually or automatically, singly or in groups.
. Installation and piping are extremely simple and inexpensive, hence the unit may be moved from one location to another at small cost if found desirable on account of changes in building or occupancy. Furnished in several sizes for factory offices and small rooms.
Thermoliers provide excellent distribution of heat free from objectionable drafts. Model 800 furnishes from 160,000 to 230,000 B.t.u. per hour (depending on air tem perature) on a 5-lb. steam pressure. May be used when desirable with steam pressures up to 125 lb.
Specifications of Model 800.--Fan: Grinnell special of rugged construction. Motor: Heavy duty, oversize, enclosed, moisture-proof. Housing: Heavy copper, insuring exceptionally long life. Rubbed copper finish protected by high temperature lacquer. Frame: Heavy pressed steel, providing nigged support for motor and fan. Specialjfeatures: Adjustable swivel hanger rod couplings; louvers rigid, but easily adjustable; integral cooling leg insuring complete drainage through one in. trap. For pressures not exceeding 50 lb., a thermostatic trap can be used and should be attached directly, to unit.
Particular attention is called to the integral cooling, a unique feature of the Thermolier which is of vast importance to the heating man. Due to the construction of the header in Thermolier, steam circulation and removal of condensation in this unit are distinctly different than is usual in such heaters.
Simple Piping connections, both on same side, with close return trap
Steam is delivered into Chamber "A" of the header
and circulates from there through the pitched U tubes,
carrying its condensation with it into Chamber *'B."
By partitioning off the last two tubes at the bottom
of the Steam Supply Chamber "A," these two tubes
carry all condensation from Chamber "B" into Drain
Chamber *' C." In passage of this condensation through
these two tubes, the air from the fan is rapidly carrying
off heat just as it does in the rest of the unit. The
result is that these two bottom tubes form an efficient
internal cooling leg, integral with the unit. The actual
cooling effect of this construction is equal to a run of
more than 100 feet of the ordinary, exterior cooling
leg piping.

Tubes expanded into cast-tron header
Due to the efficient functioning of the internal cooling leg, it is practical with the Grinnell Thermolier to make an exceedingly close connection of the return trap, as indi cated on the drawing on previous page. The condensation coming from the unit is cool enough so that the trap will operate continuously even when the unit is working at maximum capacity for long periods. This feature, com bined with the fact that the steam supply connection is at the same end of the unit, makes for compactness and neatness in the piping connections.

VENTO
Cast Iron Heaters
Twenty-five years of successful operation of Vento Heaters in thousands of installations - in private and public buildings throughout America, Europe and Australia, disclose no failure of any kind.
Vento has a unique construction
which breaks up the air currents
VENTO Cast Iron Heater
and assures rapid steam circula tion, both of which features in sure full heating efficiency of all
the surfaces of the heater.
Beingjnade up into stacks which are easily handled, and having far less joints per hundred square feet than pipecoils, there is less liability to leaks. Vento requires less labor to install, and calls for about 15 per cent less space. Vento is made of cast iron, which does not rust by action of air, gases, water or summer dampness, and is much more durable than pipe-coils. Vento Heaters do not freeze, split or corrode, nor is there any effect from electrolysis.
Vento does not call for any new or special conditions
in either housing or steam supply and drip connections.
Both live and exhaust steam may be used at the same
time.
.
In blast and plenum chamber work the net installed cost of Vento is less than that of lighter forms of heaters.

Aerofin
AEROFIN is the modern standardized, light-weight Fan System Heat-Surface developed by Fan Engineers to meet the present-day requirements of this highly special ized held and to afford an adaptability which permits the new and advanced applications of tomorrow.
AeroWn, Aiffsm., AerofTn
AEROFIN is built in three distinct types: AerofTn, tube-plate construction, for pressures up to 50 lbs. gauge; Ae'rOFTn, continuous seamless tubes, multiple-coil construction, for pressures from 2J^ to 150 lbs., gauge; and AeRcFiTn, continuous seamless tubes, for pressures frorti 25 to 350 lbs. gauge (Temp. 500 F.)
Design and Construction
The heat-transfer surface, in AeROFIN, is a plurality of seamless copper tubes about which is wound a helix of copper ribbon, crimped on its inner edge to permit winding and to afford maximum contact between tube and fin. The extended fin surface is applied, and tinned while held in position, by highly-developed automatic machines, being accurately crimped and spaced. The tinning of the tube and the extended surface
makes them metallicly integral, affording maximum heat transmission and permanent effectiveness. The thickness and width (height) of the extended surface, the crimping and the pitch o( the helix were determined by careful experiment, to afford maximum heat transfer, uniform air flow and minimum resistance thereto. The copper tubes and fins of AeROFIN transmit heat eight times
as effectively as iron. So scientifically is AEROFIN
designed that air is heated more in passage through a
single row of its tubes, a travel of 1 in., than in
passage through an entire section of cast iron surface,
a travel of 9 in.
In AeROfTn the tubes are set into flexible tubeplates by means of a highly developed joint which is
F'i l AEROFTN
tight and permanent. See Fig. 1.
666
Aerofin Corporation
Heat-Surface Fan System
In AEROFTN and AeRoFFn the seam less tubes, with their extended fin surface, are continuous. See Figs. 2 and 3.
Both AerofTn, Arv6'fTn and
AeSoFM are furnished as completely en cased units, ready for pipe and duct connec tions. The casings are built of pressed steel and are exceptionally strong and rigid, pro tecting the unit from all the strains of pipe connection and expansion or contraction in service. The casings are flanged on both faces, top and bottom, and template punched for bolting together adjacent units, or for duct connection.
p**. Aerofin
Standard Casings
The casings of all AEROFIN Units, whether comprising one, two or three rows of
tubes, are 29 in. wide, across tubes, from outer edge one flange to outer edge opposite
flange, and 10 in. deep in direction of air flow. Length of casing is nominal tube
length plus 8^ in.
`.
Sizes of AeroWn
Aerofin is made in fifteen standard tube lengths, either one, two or three staggered rows of tubes per Unit. There are thus forty-five standard Units available, a range which adequately meets all requirements.
Tubes are furnished of any length between 2 ft. 0 in. and 6 ft. 0 in., in increments of 6 in., and between 6 ft. 0 in. and 12 ft. 0 in. in increments of 1 ft.
Complete Tables of Sizes and Capacities are shown in our Bulletin G8, mailed gratis upon request.
Sizes of AiRffiN
Aerofin is designed for installation with tubes horizontal only. It is available in one- or two-row Units, in seventeen standard nominal tube lengths (distance between end baffle plates, or between 180 bends,) between 2 ft. 0 in., and 10 ft. 0 in., inclusive, in increments of 6 in. Batteries of double width are easily assembled by setting Units end-to-end, leaving space for pipe connections.
In AiRdtlN the seamless tubes are bent into a 3-pass coil, one end attached to the
Supply Header, the other to the Drip Header, as indicated in Fig. 3. The connections
to the welded Headers are made by means of special brass compression unions, insuring
absolutely tight, dependable connections. (Tubes may be disconnected at unions and
removed if, for any reason, this should become desirable.)
Complete Tables of Sizes and Capacities at various Pressures are shown in Bul
letin GU-8.
Sizes of AEROm
AiRfim is made in five standard tube lengths (i.e. length of straight section of tube, between the 180 deg. bends), 2 ft. 0 in., 2.ft. 6 in., 3 ft. 0 in., 3 ft. 6 in., 4 ft. 0 in., either one, two or three staggered rows of tubes per Unit. There are thus fifteen standard Units now available, meeting practically all requirements. Since the Supply and Drip Connections of Aer`oFW are located on the same end, Fig. 2, Units may be placed end-to-end thus affording battery widths of twice the Standard tube-lengths. Complete Tables of Sizes and Capacities are shown in our Bulletin GHP-2, mailed gratis upon request.

Steel Supporting Legs
.
Standard Steel Supporting Legs, 18 in. or 24 in. high, template punched to same
bolt hole centers as standard casing, are furnished when ordered. These legs may be
attached quickly and obviate necessity of any other foundation.
Advantages AEROFIN weighs but 9 to 16 per cent as much as equivalent cast iron, and occupies
but 35 per cent of the space required by equivalent cast iron (3-row units). Two men can easily carry any AEROFIN Unit. Expensive foundations are unnecessary, building reenforcement is not required and the Units may readily be suspended from beams or roof trusses, or installed snugly in any out-of-the-way corner. The light weight and remarkable compactness of AEROFIN permit design heretofore impossible, bringing a new era in Fan Engineering,--enabling the Engineer or Architect to exercise his highest skill, undeterred by the weight and bulk which have limited him in the past.
The encasing of AEROFIN, complete, ready for pipe and duct connections, is the most important advance in Heating Surface since the inception of Fan Engineering. It avoids all the old familiar uncertainties and delays, insuring installation in the shortest possible time and at the lowest possible cost. Best of all, the cost of installing encased AEROFIN may be calculated with great accuracy. It isn't necessary to "guess at it1' as of yore,--and probably discover that the "guess" was low enough to wipe out the profit on the job. The cost of installing AEROFIN is usually about one-fifth that for equivalent cast iron or "pipe-coil."
Whatever you'oc wished for in a Fan System Heating Surface you'll find in AEROFIN!

McCord Radiator & Mfg. Co.
2587 E. Grand Boulevard
Detroit, Mich.
Manufacturers of Spiral Fin-Tubing for Unit Heaters and Concealed Radiators, for Electric Refrigeration, Automotive Radiators and Metallic Asbestos Gaskets.
McCord tubing, now developed for use in heating and refrigeration systems, is the result of twenty-two years' experience in the building of automotive cooling systems.
The construction of McCord tubing in sures a perfect contact between the fin and the tube, insuring greatest heat transfer. McCord solder was developed for the particular purpose of withstanding the high temperatures of heating require ments. The special "Spiral Fin-Tubing" is made by a patented process, and may be had in corrugatecLor plain fin.
It is made of seamless tubing, brass or copper, finished bright on inside. The corrugated or flat spiral fin is continuous with a perfect metal-to-metal contact between the fin and the tube which makes for efficient radiation. The tubing is made in either hard or soft temper and can be coiled on sort radius so as to occupy the minimum of space.
For heating purposes McCord Spiral FinTubing is well adapted to unit heaters or concealed wall radiators, and is used by a number of manufacturers.

THE KAINER PRESSURE GOVERNOR (For Hot Water Heating Systems)
The Kainer Pressure Governor is a simple, safe and accurate device for pressure reducing and relief service on any hot water
heating system. It is comprised of two automatic valve units (cast integral) and a
filter. One valve unit reduces and governs the water supply; the other valve unit relieves the heating system when excessive pressure due to expansion develops.
Full flow opening in the reducing unit
permits of very quick filling of the system
when first installed.' The filter is ruggedly constructed of
heavy gauge perforated copper and is
instantly accessible for cleaning. * The Kainer Bellows Diaphragm illus
trated in the sectional view is used on both
valve units. It is a very unique device conforming to the latest
engineering practice. It is extremely sensitive to any set
pressure and thoroughly tested for all working pressures. It
contains no material requiring, service or replacement.
The entire governor is constructed of cast or phosphor
bronze, and is rust proof, scale proof and trouble proof. With
very little effort it can be instantly
taken apart for inspection and re
assembled as quickly in the same
manner.
The governor is tested at 60
pounds pressure and set at the
factory to maintain 10 pounds on
the system and to relieve the system
when the pressure due to expansion
reaches 30 pounds. Each valve
unit has an adjustment screw con
cealed beneath a removable bonnet
at the top of the valve permitting of a very quick and easy adjust-
Sectional View Illustrates the Kainer Bellows Diaphragm
ment should a change of adjustment be desired.
-
Extreme dimensions over all 10 in. wide. in. high. Packed singly in cardboard cartons. Shipping
weight approximately 5 pounds.
List price Kainer Pressure Governor, complete for mounting, $24.00
A typical installation of the Kainer Pressure Governor is shown on
the diagram. It should be placed at the approximate height of the
boiler--at the same time convenient for inspection--and connected
to the return main. The filter and reducing unit are connected to
. water supply and the relief unit to the return main. A connection
should run from the relief unit to floor drain.
The water that may pass through the relief unit is automatically
replaced with fresh water when the pressure on the system is reduced
to below that at which the valve is set. -
A pressure gauge should be used on the boiler. 30 pounds is con
sidered a safe maximum pressure on most boilers and the gauge
should never show much above that if relief valve is set to relieve at
that pressure.

Complete line of High Grade Plumbing Brass Goods
Mueller Automatic System of Hot Water Heat Control--This is a closed system operating automatically without an expansion tank. It can be quickly installed on either new or old jobs.
The water in the system is always kept fresh. This promotes good circulation. Just enough water is admitted by the re ducing valve to supply the amount re leased by the relief valve.
A very considerable saving in fuel is effected due to the automatic control of dampers and rapid circulation.
Perfectly safe as both reducing valve and relief valve are operated by the pressure of the .water in the system. These valves are especially constructed and tested for use on this system.
The reducing and relief valves are positive in action and durable, the working parts being made of bronze with phosphor bronze diaphragms.
Boiling point of water raised to higher point than with open system.
The damper regulator is a very important part of this system as it is not only a fuel saver but also is a safety feature, checking the fire when the desired temperature is reached.
The Mueller System can be readily used with a thermostatic control, operated by a.motor inthe basement. Mueller posi tive control of pressure in the system assures permanent safety.
Reducing and Regulating Valves--For steam, water, air, gas, oil, etc. All are diaphragm operated and positive in action. Their reputation for sustained accuracy is known wherever regulating valves are used.
Brass Goods--Everything in the line of brass faucets, stops, etc., for lavatory and bath room, and also complete line of laboratory faucets adopted and approved by leading universities such as the Mas sachusetts Tech.
Relief Valves--Mueller Relief Valves are absolutely dependable. They have been approved by the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel inspectors and corre spond to the code of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Tests in the Underwriters' Laboratories have proved the Mueller Relief Valve safe.

Red Top Relief Valve, Model No. 1, for pro*
tecting range boilers, tank heaters, piping
and fixtures in domestic hot water supply
systems against dangerous pressures.
Red Top "Tank-in-Basement" (or Pressure System) of Hot Water Heating
A No. 2 Red Top Relief Valve, and any air-tight tank of good make are the only two special parts required for the most efficient, low-cost system of hot water heating.
The illustration shows a typical Red Top System in a two story residence. The air-tight tank-- which gives a cushioning effect that promotes rapid circulation--is placed in the basement where it belongs. Since the hot water circulation is more rapid, smaller piping and less radiation surface may be used.
. For a "closed" system the following sizes of air-tight expansion tank are suggested:
Up to. 500 ft. rad., 15 gaL tank 12 in. diam. x 30 in. long
500 to 800 ft. rad., 21 gaL tank 12 in. Hutm, x 42 in. long
800 to 1200 ft. rad., 26 gaL tank 12 in.
x 54 in. long
1200 to 1600 ft. rad., 42 gaL tank ,, riinm _,, long
Red Top "Tank-in-Basement"
Systems Offer These Advantages:
Sectional View, Model No. t, Red Top Relief Valve
1. No more cracked boiler sections or other costly rup tures due to exces sive pressures.
2. No more frozen overflow pipes, or corroded and clogged expansion tank outlets.
3. More efficient heat ing due to faster circulation of hot water--twiceas fast as in old type over head gravity sys tems.
4. Water, returning to the boiler at a higher,
temperature, requires less reheating.
5. Fuel is saved--frequently as much as 20%.
6. Less firing--saving labor.
'
7. Expansion tank is in basement. It does not
take up usable space in some other part of
house.
..
8. No waste of water from system; No water can
leave until the pressure reaches the danger
point, when water is automatically released by
the Red Top Relief Valve.
9. Very moderate in cost. Easily applied when
the heating plant is installed.
10. Old systems can be changed over to the Red
Top with little trouble and small cost.
.
11. First, last and always a safe system--protecting
property and life from dangerous rising
pressures.

Tycos
SuspendedPen Recorders
Temperature ranges and time requirements, vary greatly in heating and venti lating work. Tycos SuspendedPen Recorders are made in many scale ranges and several time periods to meet these needs. Tycos Recorders . are sturdy and re liable. The friction of moving parts has been re duced to a minimum. Charts are easily changed, and each instrument is locked and sealed against malicious or unintentional interference with the mechanism. Cases are handsomely finished and are dust and moisture proof. Instruments, may be quickly tested and calibrated. Write for special information suitable to your needs.
Tycos Electric Contact
Temperature Control
These instruments combine in the same case an
electrically-operated temperature regulator with an
indicating thermometer. One tube system only is.
required to operate both units. .
Direct-Set Control Feature: This feature has
been developed in Tycos Electric-Contact Controls
until we believe that no similar instrument on the
market can compare with it for convenience and
accuracy. The Tycos Direct-Setting Feature is a
real time saver, because it eliminates making a series
of adjustments in order to obtain the proper control.
Only one adjustment is required.
.-
The instrument will control at this point within
the limits of its contact until re-set for auother
temperature.
Tycos Thermometers for Enclosed Spaces
The Tycos line presents many styles and scale ranges. Suitable for air ducts, kiln temperatures and oven temperatures.. Tycos Industrial Ther mometers are made with the greatest care, and their reliability is un questioned. For detailed informa tion. write direct, mentioning your requirements.
The Tycos Self-Acting
Temperature Regulator
Is adapted to use on hot-water storage tanks, etc. It is ``self acting" in that it requires no auxiliary motive power, such as compressed air, to open ana dose the steam valve. As heat is applied to the bulb the volatile liquid inside sets up a vapor pressure proportional to the tempera ture. Inis pressure is transmitted to a "stack" of metal diaphragms at- ' tached to the upper end of the valve stem, thus moving the. valve disc toward the valve seat. By means of the adjustment at the top of the diaphragm housing, the valve can be closed at any desired temperature, or a throttling action can be obtained within the temperature range of the instrument. Not practicable on pipe tinea having steam pressure over 125 pounds. Should be installed in a vertical position on top of the line; never hanging under neath the line. The line itself should be horizontal rather than vertical. Operating range 100 deg. to 160 deg. fahr., 140 deg. to 212 deg. fahr., or 190 deg. to 270 deg. fahr., as specified.
Tycos Sling Psychrometer
The Ttcos SHng Psychrometer is a . modification of the pattern developed by the.U. S. Weather Bureau. The fact that our design has been generally copied is good evidence of its practicable features
The advantage of tnis form of Wet-andDry-Bulb Hygrometerover the stationary form is the facility with which tests can be made and the accuracy of the readings obtainable, as in whirling the bulbs they are subjected to perfect circulation.

JOHNS-MANVILLE UNDERGROUND SYSTEM OF INSULATION
A specially salt glazed and highly vitrified tile conduit is used as a waterproof envelope to protect the insulation--JohnsManville Asbesto-Sponge Conduit Filling, is packed around the piping to be insulated and completely fills the conduit.
The cast iron roll frame used is installed in a mortar or concrete bed and is set at the proper elevation from an overhead batter-board line. This method prevents uneven alignment of the pipes by irregular ity in the manufacture of the conduit, etc.
The insulation used to surround the pipe is made of asbestos fibre and material of a sponge-like nature, which when properly mixed with the asbestos, forms the most efficient and durable insulation for under- ground work.
The underdrain laid with open joints carries away the water that rapidly filters away from the system through the broken stone or gravel in which the lower half of the system and the underdrain itself is laid.
Shutters for sealing the ends of the system, manhole and anchor pits, are incidental but necessary, and'are placed according to conditions and requirements . as recommended by our engineers. .

The transmission figures given in the tables on pages 22 to 47 are for these thicknesses and the values shown can be depended upon for estimating heating requirements.
For roofs of commercial and industrial buildings, the thickness varies with con ditions. Not less than 1 in. should be used in any case, preferably 1^ or 2 in. Where there is high humidity inside the building and ceiling sweat, the conditions should be analyzed by a competent engineer to determine the thickness necessary to prevent condensation.
Armstrong's Corkboard
Armstrong's Corkboard has been the standard insulation in the industries for the past 25 years. Many millions of feet of it are in use in cold storage plants, refrigerators, refrigerator cars, and in other industrial rooms where temperature con trol is essential. Its dependability and permanence have been proved under all kinds of conditions.
Armstrong's Corkboard is composed of clean granules of pure cork, compressed and solidified by a baking process into firm, semi-rigid sheets of uniform quality. Armstrong's Corkboard is made in boards measuring 12 x 32 in. and 36 in., 1, 1%, 2, 3, 4, and 6 in. thick. It is obvious that with this range of sizes, any thickness required for house insulation or com mercial roof insulation can be applied in a single thickness and therefore at a con siderable saving in tabor cost.
Armstrong's Corkboard is light in weight, about 0.8 lb. per square foot 1 in. thick. It can be easily erected in any. type of construction, being applied in Portland cement mortar against masonry walls, nailed to studs, joists, and rafters, and laid in asphalt or pitch on roof decks. Regular house plaster is applied directly on the corkboard without lath, and standard roofings laid over the cork in the same manner as on the roof deck.

Domestic Insulation--Banroc Hominsul for insulating homes Banroc Furnace Jacket for'Hot Air Furnaces
Banroc Wool--Banroc Wool, the basic material from which all Banroc Products are made, is a highly efficient thermal insulation, consisting of fine glass-like fibres of rock
material, which entrap tiny air cells, that comprise about 92 per cent of its volume. It is made from a peculiar rock, found in our own quarries. The rock is first melted
in the intense heat of special furnaces, and then blown into tiny fibres by means of high
pressure jets. Tests made by the United States Bureau of Standards show that Banroc Wool has a
thermal conductivity of 0.275 B.t.u. per hour, per square foot for I in. thickness and a temperature differential of 1 deg. fahr. at a mean temperature of 77 deg. fahr. Com paring this conductivity with competing materials proves that Banroc Wool has a low conductivity, and is, therefore, a very efficient high temperature insulating material.
This fact is further demonstrated by tests by some of the largest insulation users in the
country.
.
The entire mineral composition of Banroc Wool makes it free from decay or deterio
ration. It is not subject to chemical reactions which cause disintegration. Banroc Wool
is fireproof. It will function with high efficiency at any temperature from 275 deg. fahr.
below zero to 1200 deg. fahr. above zero.
Banroc Jacket--Banroc Jacket is a flexible insulating material,
made of selected Banroc Wool, felted between copper bearing metal
fabrics of various types to meet special conditions. It is adaptable for the insulation of all hot surfaces, ranging in temperatures between 100 deg. fahr. and 1200 deg. fahr.
Banroc Jacket
Banroc Jacket is fireproof, will not decay or deteriorate, can be removed and replaced without
injury, is unaffected by chemical'dr climatic conditions, is highly efficient and economical. Banroc Jacket is made in standard sections 2 ft. by 8 ft. and 2 ft. by 4 ft., in 1, 1
2, 2J^, 3, 3H, 4, 5 and 6 in. thickness. Special .sizes to meet special conditions can be
furnished on short notice at a small increase in cbst.

Banner Rock Products Company
Insulating Material
Banroc Pipe Insulation is made in four standard styles to meet various conditions of service. Style No. 25 is made by felting and securing Banroc Wool between metal fabrics. This inside fabric is a high grade fine mesh wire netting cut and spaced to exactly meet the outside circumference of the pipe. The outside metal fabric is copper bearing, metal lath, of a length equal to the outside circumference of the pipe insulation. This insures a continuous insulation around and along the pipe.
Style No. 25, furnished in 2 ft. sections in thicknesses of 1 to 4 in., for use on pipes 2 in. diame ter or larger. For use on hot lines where a plaster finish is to be used.
Style No. 45 is of the same con struction as No. 25, except a heavy, reinforced waterproof paper is used on the outside in stead of the metal lath. Asbestos roofing of the highest grade, cut in sections to fit, is furnished with style No. 45 as a waterproof and durable covering. For use where a waterproof and weather-proof finish is desired. Used extensively for underground steam lines.
Style No. 65 is of the same con struction as No. 25, with a 24 gauge ingot iron outer casing, attached by a patented flange and rivet construction to the copper bearing metal lath. It is especially recommended for use around refineries and other process plants where a* removable and replaceable insulation that is waterproof, fireproof, durable ahd efficient, is desired.
Furnished in thickness 1to 4 in., in 2 ft. sections with 2 in. extra for end lap. For use on pipes of 3 in. diameter or larger.
Style No. 85 is the same as style 45, with an 8 oz. Canvas Cover instead of the asbestos roofing cover.
Banroc Insulating Cements--Banroc Wool has been compounded into a line of insulating cements that are admirably suited for the various purposes intended. They have good coverage, excellent finish and high insulating efficiencies.
No. 16 Cement--Banroc No. 16 Cement is especially suited'for finishing Banroc
Jacket and Banroc No. 25 Pipe Insulation. It is light in.weight, easy to mix and.apply,
finishes with a hard white surface that does not crack or peel and has a good insulating
efficiency. .
".
No. 18 Cement--Banroc No. 18 Cement is a high grade cement with a high insulat
ing value. It is recommended for use on fittings and irregular surfaces where it is
impracticable to apply Banroc Jacket or Pipe Insulation. It will adhere readily to hot
or cold surfaces with a minimum of shrinkage. Because of its high insulating value it is
more or less porous and can not be used for a finishing cement. It can be reclaimed and
used again by remixing with water.
.
Anti-Therm Cement--Banroc Anti-Therm Cement was developed as a part of the Banroc Fireproofing Specification for fireproofing structural steel. It has a marvelous heat absorbing quality that prolongs the life of steel members in a fire. The Banroc Fireproofing Specification has given marvelous protection in fire tests.
Banroc Cements are shipped in 100 lb. bags.
Rock Cork--Rock Cork is a cold temperature insulation made of Banroc Wool, mixed with waterproof binders, formed and baked into blocks. For complete information send for Rock Cork Bulletin.
Banroc Hominsul--Banroc Hominsul is a highly efficient, economical insulating material in granular form, made especially for use in the home. It is a dry insulation and is placed between studs in side walls or between rafters in ceiling. Send for complete information.

Insulating Material
The Insulite Company
Builders' Exchange Building Minneapolis, Minn.
Insulite is a wood-fiber insulating board made from the Jong, coarse, fibers of the spruce and other northern woods. The strong fibers are felted together in such a way as to form rigid boards containing innumerable air cells. Due to the fact that these small air cells, closely confined, and in large quanti ties, form a heat resisting material, Insulite affords a high degree of insulating ef ficiency as shown by many unbiased laboratory tests conducted by various authorities in this field.
It is made in a thickness of half inch, but when used for roof insulation two half-inch thicknesses are stapled together with non corroding metal staples, affording a full inch of serviceable and substantial insula tion, an important feature of which is the lapped edges which provide a heat-sealing factor not obtainable when ordinary square-edge material is used.
In our book, "Roof Insulation and the Prevention of Condensa tion " which is illustrated here, and which will be sent without obligation to any one interested, the various important phases of prevention of condensation and roof insulation are thorough ly covered.
Through various ana lytical examples it is easily possible for the heating and ventilating engineer to determine not only the amount of insulation to use to get
most efficient results, but
tables show how to figure fuel savings, radiation
savings, dollars and cents
savings in investment, and other informa
tion of equal interest.
*
The Prevention of Condensation is a subject which has had a growing amount of attention among heating and ventilat
ing engineers because of the great losses through this source. Not only is there
loss in heat and fuel, but because of drip ping water which has condensed on roofs
and ceilings thousands of dollars worth of valuable equipment, machinery, and finished products are ruined annually. This subject is given important consideration in the book referred to, not only as to its prevention, but actual tables are shown which make it possible for even the inex perienced to determine the amount of insulation that is necessary to overcome condensation under various conditions.
For the assistance of engineers^, the Insulite Company maintains a Service Department composed of technical' men
with latest information

frame, brick, hollow tile or veneer* con structions, and to give the user the full benefit of its heat insulation and sound proofing qualities.
Flax-li-num was introduced in 1909, first, to insulate railroad refrigerator cars, and has extended its application in the past fifteen years to a variety of insulating services in residences and industrial build ings and in many specialty markets, such as iceless shipping containers and kindred products.
The use of Flax-li-num in buildings, brings definite economies in fuel and radia tion required, as well as the production and maintenance of healthful conditions. Heat transmission coefficients are given for various types of walls and roofs.
Flax-li-num is vermin and rodent proof and is guaranteed by the manufacturers never to fall down or become displaced in a building wall. As the material is of semi-rigid type it cannot warp, break or crack, and it should not be considered as a substitute for ordinary wood or metal lath, sheathing or other parts of a building, construction.

To get the best service from Flax-li-num specify the exact place where insulation is to go. The effectiveness of insulation is increased if applied between studdings, midway between the sheathing and lath and plaster for frame construction, or furred out on masonry construction. Flax-li-num for walls should be at least /xl in. thick and for roofs 1 in. thick.
The Flax-li-num method of application of insulating material to all types of con struction is fully covered in our booklet, "Heat Insulation for Houses"--A. I. A. File 37-b-l. There is also contained in this booklet the Flax-li-num radiation chart which greatly simplifies the accurate com putation of radiation where heat loss factors are known.

Maftex
The **Thermal-Insulating" Board that has Structural Strength
PRODUCTS:
Maftex Structural Insulating Board for sheathing, sound-proofing, etc.
Maftex Roof Insulating Board for flat roof decks, sound-proofing, etc.
Maf-Lath--the ideal plaster base.
Maftex Refrigerator Board.
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS:
Maftex products are made from the roots of the licorice plant by a special process developed by the
MacAndrews & Forbes Company. The thoroughly extracted, washed and sterilized root fibres'are
processed to produce a non-laminated board of great structural strength and remarkable thermal
resistance.
.
Licorice root fibres are inherently resistant to
attack by vermin and bacteria to a remarkable
degree. This natural characteristic together with
- the sterilization and chemical treatment incidental
to processing Maftex insures permanence.
Experimental board produced 20 years ago still retains its strength and other physical character
istics. Maftex may be sawed, nailed or sandpapered
readily. The sheets are strong enough to permit handling without danger of destroying the edges.
The ripple surface of Maftex not only furnishes
an ideal base for gypsum plaster but permits of
unusual decorative effects when painted or stained.
Structural Strength:
Numerous comparative distortion tests between walls sheathed with Maftex and wood sheathing show that even under very severe stresses the distortion of Maftex structures is less than onefifth as great a9 wooden ones.
Of equal importance is the fact that Maftex
structures are sufficiently resilient to return to their
original position after severe stress.
Insulating Value:
Maftex is primarily an insulating material. Tests conducted by Professor Gebhardt of the Armour Institute of Technology using the guarded hot-plate method showed that Maftex ha9 athermal conductivity of 0.337 B.t.u./sq. ft./inch/ F/hour. Its resistance to the flow-of heat is therefore three times as great as that of wood and nearly twenty-five times as great as concrete.
Plaster Bond:
The ripple surface of Maf-Lath is an ideal base for gypsum plaster. When prepared and applied according to specifications gypsum plaster shows a bonding strength to Maf-Lath greater than 1000 lb. per square foot.
Maf-Lath in convenient 16 x 48 in. sheets may be economically and quickly applied by lathers. This product combines the insulating value and plaster bonding strength of Maftex with the convenience of wood lath.
Sound Deadening:
Maftex is widely applied as a medium for the absorption of sound. It is useful both as a sound insulator and for acoustical correction in audi toriums, broadcasting stations, etc.
Sizes:
.
Maftex Structural Insulating Board is % in. in thickness, 4 ft. wide and 8. 9, 10 and 12 ft. long. Weight is approximately 750 lb. per 1000 sq. ft.
Maftex Roof Insulating Board is made in 4 ft. by 4 ft. sheets, approximately M in. in thickness.
Maf-Lath is cut in convenient size 16 x 48 in.
for use by lathers as an insulating plaster base.
Maftex Refrigerator Board is cut to specified size for use by refrigerator and refrigerator car manufacturers.

APPLICATIONS MAFTEX STRUC TURAL BOARD, AND MAF-LATH:
Roof Sheathing: Under the usual roofing materials
Maftex replaces wood sheathing on slop ing roofs while giving insulation as well.
Side Wall Sheathing: On side walls Maftex is used in place
of the ordinary sheathing and gives added strength plus insulation.
Plaster Base:
Maf-Lath replaces wood lath or plaster board on walls and ceilings to receive plaster while also reducing heat transmis sion and absorbing sound.
Wall Finish:
Paints and stains produce beautiful effects on Maftex paneling applied to studs. If desired, the ripple surface itself forms an attractive finish.
Sound Deadening:
Under floors and on basement ceilings Maftex is used for its sound-absorbing qualities as well as for its insulation.value.
APPLICATIONS MAFTEX ROOF INSULATING BOARD:
On account of its thickness Maftex
Roof Insulating Board has an insulating
value somewhat higher than Standard
Structural Maftex and is intended for
insulating purposes only. It is used on
flat roofs to keep out the heat of the
summer sun, for saving of fuel in winter,
and to prevent condensation.
..
Correction of Condensation:
Excessive humidity incident to many industrial processes gives rise to condensa tion under flat roofs and on side walls. Such condensation is frequently detrimental to manufactured products and always to the structure on which it occurs.
In practically all cases the proper appli
cation of Maftex will correct condensa
tion. The chart below has been prepared to
assist the engineer in determining the number of layers under ordinary condi tions. The data used as the basis of this chart are a constant inside temperature at the roof line of 100 deg. fahr. and an outside temperature of 0 deg. fahr.
Where the range of temperatures varies from the above the Manufacturers will be glad to furnish a chart that indicates the number of layers of Maftex necessary for all conditions of temperature and humidity.

Weatherproof and Insulating Building Material
Thermasote is a combination of wood and other fibres united in a process that meshes and binds them into a substantial board suitable' for exterior and interior walls, plaster base and many other applications in homes,
stores, garages and business buildings. It is made ^ in. thick, is strong, durable and excellent as an insulator against both heat and cold.
Thermasote withstands exposure and may be worked in many ways. The surface takes paint admirably and may be used in a variety of decorative treatments. It is made in convenient sizes and its use gives assurance that the building will be remarkably warm in winter and cool in summer.
Thermasote may be applied in old houses as well as in new buildings and is particularly effective for lining an attic to stop heat losses through roof. It can be used as siding, sheathing, paneling, etc., and because of its ease of application, is readily used in wood shingle, clapboard, stucco, brick veneer and other popular building wall constructions.

Heat-Resistant Quality
A heat insulation test on Thermasote made by the Armour Institute of Chicago^ expressed in British Thermal Units per hour per foot of surface, per degree Fahrenheit, difference in. temperature between the surface of the material per inch thickness, showed the coefficiency of heat conductivity per inch thick of 0.37 or for one day or 24 hours 8.98.
An absorption test of Thermasote wholly immersed in
water for 24 hours showed the percentage of absorption
as only 34.8.
1
The low moisture absorption percentage means higher insulation against dampness, for it is a well-known fact that as absorption increases insulating value decreases.
Thermasote is widely used as a plaster base. Put on with nail wire mesh over joints, then apply plaster in the regular manner. No lath is necessary. The tenacious grip that plaster takes on Thermasote is shown by accompanying illustration. Note that its adhesion sup ports more than a ton weight.
Heating a home when

Nowadays the whole house must be comfort able, . and comfort must be maintained with least possible expense. Unless a dwelling is properly in sulated against winter's blasts and summer's sun, it will lack a decidedly strong sales factor.

The great insulation value of Masonite is attributable to the cellular formation of the wood fibres from which it is made and to the thoroughness with which those fibres are felted together in the finished board. This also explains the great strength of Masonite Structural Insulation. This insulation is made entirely of fibres obtained by exploding fresh, clean wood chips and it contains no artificial binder of any charac ter. There is nothing in Masonite to break down or disintegrate-^--it is permanent.
Masonite is used as sheathing on the outside-: pf- studs for both heat and sound insulation under wood siding, brick, stone or tile veneer and stucco. It is also used on the inside of studs as a plaster base-- and-it bonds with the plaster so effectively that an average pull of more than 1000 lb. is required to pull the plaster from one square foot of Masonite Insulating Lath.

Licensed Operators in Principal
Building Centers
INSULATION APPLIED BY AIR
Process--Sprayo-Flake insulating process consists of forcing by air prepared flakes of fibrous material previously impregnated with fire resisting agent through a specially constructed gun. As the flakes leave the gun they are coated with spray of atomized adhesive agent (water glass) and projected to the surface to be insulated. The coated fibrous flakes form a blanket of insulation covering all cracks and.crevices. It can be applied to practically any surface in any desired thickness.
Development--Sprayo-Flake was conceived by a layman while observing the installation of insulating material in his own home under course of construction. Prompted by a desire to overcome the inefficiency and attendant difficulties in volved in installing prepared types of insulating materials, the spray gun method was evolved. Further development proved the soundness of this theory. SprayoFlake method in one operation does a most thorough job, it eliminates entirely the labor of cutting, fitting, and nailing.
Further development of the original idea dates back to the year of 1924 when specially designed equipment was per fected to apply Sprayo-Flake. The next step was adoption of an adhesive agent, addition of fire resisting qualities, and vermin proofing which was perfected in laboratories and practical usage in the building field.
Distribution and Service--To assure the highest return per dollar invested in insulation the Sprayo-Flake Co. has adopted a modern economically sound plan of merchandising and distribution. Sprayo-Flake is supplied direct from factory to job through licensed operators. These licensed operators located in princi ple building centers are insulation special ists, financially responsible, and work on an exclusive franchise basis. Each instal
lation is made by expertly trained me chanics under exacting supervision.
This advanced plan of distribution enables the architect, builder, or owner to know the exact cost of insulation. SprayoFlake is always quoted on the basis of unit price per square foot or lump sum bid installed, including labor and material.
Physical Characteristics
'
The fibrous cellular structure and method of application gives Sprayo-Flake the desired characteristics of the ideal insulation material:
1. LOW THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY. 0.25 B.t.u. per hour per square foot per 1 in. thickness per degree temperature differential.
2. PRACTICABILITY.
Can be applied to practically any surface in any
. desired thickness. Seals cracks and crevices, calks around window and door frames.
3. FIRE RESISTANT.
Pre-chemically treated fibrous material plus the
sodium silicate binder produces a highly effective
fire resisting insulation. `
-
4. VERMIN PROOF.
Alkali silicate binder and alkaline sulphate impregnation render Sprayo-Flake insulation repellant to vermin.
5. LIGHT WEIGHT.
Flakey fibrous air cell structure weighs only 4.6 lb. per cubic foot installed. .
6. PERMANENCY. The fabricated blanket of Sprayo-Flake in
sulation is held in place securely by employ ing a sodium silicate cohesive binder. This
binder also preserves the fibrous flakes from deterioration. The cohesive properties of
sodium silicate have been utilized in the paper making industry for many years. .
7. LOW COST.
. Sprayo-Flake insulation is manufactured and applied mechanically in one operation eliminat ing costly labor involved in cutting and fitting prepared types of materials.
8. FLEXIBILITY.
Sprayo-Flake is sufficiently flexible to allow for usual expansion and contraction of structural members to which it is applied without im pairing its efficiency. '
9. SOUND ABSORBENT. The cellular structure and resiliency of SprayoFlake render it a highly sound absorbent material.
Note.--Conductivity and Transmission tests by such authorities as Prof. J. C. Peebles, Armour Institute; Bureau of Standards and Prof. F. B. Rowley of Minneapolis.

SHUNT STEAM METER
The Shunt Steam Meter fills the need for a low priced, practical steam meter which is easily installed and accurate over a wide range. It is used to advantage in measuring steam sold or in checking the distribution of steam (also air or gas) to various buildings, departments, machines or processes. Illustration shows the complete Meter.. An orifice in the main line of flow deflects a portion of the steam through nozzles and against the turbine located in the shunt circuit out of the main line of flow. The turbine shaft extends through a housing into a condensation chamber below the main line. A damping fan attached to this shaft operates under water, keeping the speed low and. eliminating bearing trouble. Magnetic drive, between this chamber and the counter mechanism protects the latter from moisture. The meter is installed as a unit in 2, 3 and 4-in. lines. For larger size mains a small meter is installed in a by-pass line around an orifice in the main line.

"CONDO-VAC" VACUUM CONDENSATION PUMPS
For the efficient operation of a vacuum heating system
where steam must be made to circulate quickly throughout
the system, and where the condensate must be returned as
quickly as possible to the boiler, the "Condo-Vac" has been highly recommended.
Many "Condo-Vacs" now giving 100 per cent service
attest to its efficiency.
-
The "Condo-Vac" pump is completely bronse fitted, having shaft, rotor, impellers, wearing rings, and impeller
and rotor nuts of bronze. This is the same construction as
the well known "Chicago" D-Type pumps which are noted for their long life and splendid wearing qualities.
The Receiver of the "Condo-Vac," which also serves as a base, is made of cast iron. Several ribs and post supports
give this receiver great strength and assure its vibrationless rigidity when the pump is in operation. The construction ofthe receiver eliminates the necessity of a special founda
tion for the pump and forms an ideal base for the pump
proper. Cleapout plates are furnished for front and back of receiver 8nd afford adequate means of cleaning the
receiver wheo necessary. A drain is provided for the depres. sion on the top of the receiver.
A heavy cast iron base carries the motor and is ad
justable for various motor heights--base provides plenty of ventilation for motor.

Economy Pumps and Receivers
Type CSS
Economy pumps and receivers are made in a variety of sizes and types for every pressure and capacity
condition. The present line is the result of a long study and improvement by this Company which was
one of the pioneers in the manufacture of Electric pumps and receivers.
.
The use of these pumps to improve circulation with a reduction in boiler pressure usually results in
large fuel economies. The savings are particularly striking in the case of medium pressure plants where it
is desired to work at low pressure during dull periods of the day.
.-
The table below gives a partial list of sizes which are available in either solid shell or horizontally split
case designs. Complete specifications and descriptions will be found in Bulletin No. 405. All Economy pumps are substantially mounted on cast iron bases with machined pads. Either cast
iron or steel receivers are used. The automatic control is assembled as a unit and is easily accessible for
Inspection at all times. The most important features of individual standard designs are given below.
Type CSS--A single suction solid shell unit with oil-less stand bearing and outboard ring oiling or
radial ball-bearing. The most popular of all Economy pumps and receivers; a thoroughly dependable unit
at aTmyopdeerCatSeMpr--iceA. double suction horizontal split case unit with enclosed bronze impell.er with ring
oiling bearings. This unit has been designed for use where the service is unusually severe as where equip
ment of the highest grade is desired,
'
Type CST--Multi-Stage Pumps for pressures above 40 lb. They are bronze fitted with ring oiling
bearing at the driving end and radial ball bearing at the outboard end.

Economy Underground Pumps and Receivers Type CU
Underground pumps and receivers are used where returns are so low that a pit would be required for a horizontal pump.
The underground unit consists of a special vertical bronze fitted pump having
renewable bearings throughout and a cast iron receiver which is permanently resistant to corrosion and special type of float mechanism is used with swivel type stuffing box.
When necessary to use ah underground pump on high pressure job the standard low
pressure unit may be used discharging into the receiver of a high pressure horizontal
pump. Our engineering department will be pleased to work out details of such in
stallations. See Bulletin No. 405.

The improved Economy Vacuum heating pump is equipped with horizontal split case centrifugal pumps in sizes over 5000 ft. (smaller sizes are equipped with bronze fitted solid shell pumps). All parts of the pump are accessible without breaking pipe connections or dis mantling the unit. The float control is located close to the floor so that a close water line may be maintained when operating as a gravity system. The boiler feed arrangement is positive and simple. The entire apparatus is shipped completely assembled and wired in accor dance with the National Electric Code. In addition to the single pump duplex units are furnished which consist of single tank, two pumps and motors. Tests with calibrated orifices are made on all pumps before shipment. Standard pumps are designed for operation against 20 lb. pressure but reasonably prompt delivery can be made on units for discharge pressure up to 150 lb. See Bulletin No. 409.

Typical Layout of Finn Condensation Pomp and Receiver
In returning the condensation to the boiler inter mittently, the Finn pump creates a vacuum in the system, permitting the water in the boiler to boil at a lower temperature and, consequently, reduces the
fuel consumption. In addition to the fuel saving feature, a better circulation is produced in all return
lines, consequently these lines become very hot and serve as additional radiation.
The pump is the same as that used in the Finn water supply system described on the following page. It consists of only a few parts, is made of high grade materials, and, because of its simplicity, is hot expensive. Impeller touches water only. No metal
rub; no wear. The cost of the electricity required
is insignificant. Capacities--No. 1 pump, 4000 sq. ft. of direct
radiation; No. 2 pump, 7000 sq. ft. direct radiation.

pipes to flanged openings and wiring to
starter the pump is ready to run.
" The use of a cast iron tank as a base
eliminates the necessity of a concrete
base for mounting.
We feel sure that the low operating
water line secured in this design will
appeal to Architects and Engineers as it
will in many installations eliminate the
placing of the pump in a pit to secure
drainage of low radiation and returns.
The operating point on these units will
be from 10 in. on the smaller sizes to 12 in.
on the larger, from floor level.
Where a self-contained unit reliable and
quiet in operation is desired the Skidmore
will be found.
.
Positive removal of air and water from
the heating system and the return of water
to the boiler.
A unit of pleasing design' of large ca
pacity and maintained efficiency, occupying
less than half the floor space of pumps for
similar service, self-contained all on one
base with return connections close to floor
with strainer arranged so that connections
can be made to one or both sides as desired.
Furnished with direct connected motors
for 10 and 20 lb. pressure, or up to 60 lb.
if desired. For continuous service or with
automatic control.

TRANE PUMPS
The new line of Trane Centrifugal Pumps de velop higher efficiencies and consequently require smaller motors than average centrifugal pumps. On the smaller pumps three-quarter horsepower motors do work that has required one or one and one-half in the past. On the larger pumps, seven
and one-half horsepower motors do work that has always required ten. On condensation units up
to 30,000 sq. ft., the pump is direct connected to
the motor by a spe cial motor end plate.
Outfits for con densation work are
furnished
completely hooked up. That is, the motor and pump, tank, switch box and motor protective equipment are mounted on one base and completely wired ready to install.
These pumps can be furnished with impellers suitable for brine or other work requiring special construction.

Westco Pumps and Receivers are used for
automatically returning to low and high pressure steam plants, condensation from radiation systems, heaters, steam coils, etc. They save the water supply. and to a considerable extent the fuel by
returning the condensate while hot, also inducing
proper circulation in the system. . Each unit consists of Westco pump direct con-.-
nected to motor and heavy steel plate galvanized receiver tank mounted on heavy cast iron pedestals which form a solid foundation. Entirely auto matic operation. .Water gauge and necessary fittings between pump and receiver tank are
furnished with all units. The Westco is a double suction ball bearing
pump, possessing perfect hydraulic balance, which
insures long life and freedom from adjustments and repairs. The design allows complete disas sembly without disturbing the suction and discharge
connections. Because of its wide operating range the Westco
eliminates the necessity for carefully computing the head against which it must operate. Westco pumps will operate against variations of as much as 50 per cent either way in the head against which they were intended to operate. Even though the safety valve is set higher than it should be, this remarkable pump still returns the condensate to
the boiler. In addition to the features outlined, the Westco
is silent, smooth running, requires very little space, because of its extreme compactness and will operate
for months with a minimum of attention.

SIMPLEX BRACKET Carrying Tube Radiator
SIMPLEX BRACKET Carrying Wail Radiator
The "Simplex" Top Hung Radiator Bracket,
for tube radiation, is designed upon an entirely new
principle. Heretofore radiator brackets have .
carried the radiators from the central hub of the
radiator, either top or bottom, but the "Simplex"
bracket carries the radiator from the rear tubes
which eliminates the necessity of using a great
variety of supporting hooks or shoes, several length
of wall plates and a number of sizes of tie rods.
Construction: Rigid wrought steel construc
tion throughout, unbreakable, guaranteed.
Tube Radiators: The -Simplex Radiator
Bracket is made in orte size only, which accom
modates all standard tube radiators regardless of
make, number of tubes or height.
.
Wall Radiators: The hooks for wall radiators
are interchangeable with hooks for tube radiators
and accommodate all standard makes of wall radia
tion.
Top Hung: No projection beyond face or ;
below bottom of radiator. Always clears surbase.
Concealed: Brackets are in back of the radiator
and below the top of same.
j
Brackets are concealed yet accessible for J
making adjustments.
.
Clearance from Wall: Simplex Top Hung
Radiator Bracket hold the radiator two inches
from the wall.
.
Installation: Easily and quickly attached to
wall, one M in. bolt is all that is necessary. Two .
can be used if desired. Radiators can be removed
from brackets for painting without disturbing the
adjustment or any part of the bracket.
A locking device is provided on the bracket to
hold hook at right angle to wall to receive radiator.
Adjustment: Brackets are adjustable both
vertically and horizontally. The 2M in- slot in the
wall plate eliminates the necessity of exact measure
ment in locating bolts. Radiators can be adjusted
after placing on hanger.
Economy: One size brackets for all sizes of
standard tube radiators, with interchangeable hooks
for wall radiation.
Eliminates the use of various height brackets and
various sizes of hooks and tie rods. The elimination
of the tie rods is an important advantage as the tie
rods are not only unsightly but take time to install. -
No left overs from one job that cannot be used on
the next.
.
.
No expensive delays waiting for brackets due to a
change in size or height of radiators during progress
of the work. A complete assembled unit.
. By carrying stock on hand, work can be immedi
ately installed without waiting for additional parts.
Safety: When the radiator is'in place on the.
hook of the "Simplex" bracket it is securely held
by the slot in the hook and cannot be dislodged
without lifting off the hook.
Weight: Both wall and tube brackets weigh
about 4V< lbs. each.

A New Principle
The New Tu-bu-lur Radiator Bracket offers simplicity, economy, accuracy, elasticity, rigidity and strength. Alt adjust ments neededfor correct installation can be made in the brocket, itself.
TU-BU-LUR RADIATOR BRACKETS
Modern radiators are of the tube type--modern radiation in all types of buildings is being wall-hung. The new' Tu-bu-lur Radiator Bracket, revolutionary in its principles, comes as an answer to the demand for simplified radiator support.
The Tu-bu-lur is truly a universal bracket. In one style and but three sizes, it fits
all tube type radiators, whether rod, slip nipple or screw nipple, regardless of make,
width or pattern. To ap-
preciate the value of this adaptability one has but to glance at the variations in tube radiator dimen sions--for example a few leading makes of 6 tube radiators measure in width as follows:
Little Giant Radiator Hangers
Little Giant Radiator Hangers are used for sup porting all types of radiators that are to be bottom hung. The Little Giant is a one-bolt hanger, having both vertical and lateral adjustment and providing

. A real contribution to the science of heating is the Sage Tube-and-Fin Radiator and Cabinet for Steam,
Hot Water or Vapor Systems.
..
It offers a new method of heating because of the correct application of the proven principles of heat
transmission.
. .,
,. . , t
x
Sage Cabinet or Concealed Radiation is made of copper and brass, weighs about a pound per square toot
of rated capacity and, because of the unique tube and fin arrangement, discharges heated air into the room at a level which is most conducive to comfort.
The Sage Radiator creates air movements, which are essential to comfort as well as beneficial to the
heating efficiency of the radiator itself. The smooth straight air passages give the air an initial velocity
which carries the heat rapidly into the room and prevents the collection of dust within the radiator.
As the Sage Radiator is very light in weight and consequently has only a comparatively small mass of
metal to be heated, the running condition is reached in a minimum of time and heat is discharged before a
cast-iron radiator gets warm to the touch.
.
Cabinets are furnished in natural wood grain finishes of red or brown mahogany, American brown
walnut, French Ivory and pure white, also with prime coat only if so desired.
The Sage Radiator has Demonstrated its Worth During 5 Years of Operation
1. Double top. Cabinet is strong and durable. Width of top 10 in. May be used as window seat. Space for water pan..
2. Cabinets 20 in. high. Top is hinged. May be opened at 30 deg. during extremely cold weather increasing efficiency. Held rigidly in place.
3. Velocity of discharge carries heated air through the grille --an important feature, improving efficiency.
4. Finished in beautiful wood grain. Or in special finishes to' harmonise with decorative schemes.
5. Lacquer finishes, very durable, highly polished and not damaged by beat or water. 6. Straight, or smooth air passages and the velocity of air movement keep the radiator clean.
7. Grille is press formed. Has 72 per cent free air opening.
8. Has double the heating surface of other radiators ofsame capacity. Heating surface is very effective, is all used and of equal value.
9. Design creates essential air movements. Cold air enters from beneath, or through the back, passing through the entire radiator and out from the room side. The Sue or stack-effect is built in the radiator.
10. Radiator is made entirely of copper and brass. Tubes are seamless copper, fins light copper, headers stamped brass. Average weight a pound per rated square foot.
11. Fin channels split the heated air into many narrow streams. This causes rapid; natural circulation and re markable uniform room temperatures:
12. Heats almost immediately. Throws off nine-tenths of the heat hek) in storage by other radiators. Never becomes "air bound." Is always noiseless. .
13. Heats from the room side only--discharge m into the room at an angle of 60 deg. All heat is effective, "convected" heat--all effectively used. No "radiant" heat.
14. Draperies or decorations cannot become dirt-streaked or smudged. There are no vertical air movements between the Sage radiator and the wall and no heat.

Radiators, Concealed
As shown by the accompanying diagram the Sage Radiator is of unit construction. The tubes are seamless copper, ^ in. outside diameter, .018 in. wall thickness and run horizontally. The fins are brass, .010 in. thick, 2% in. long and "/& in. wide. After the fins are assembled on the tubes the whole element is dipped in a tin bath to insure metallic contact between tube and fins.
The tubes are welded into the stamped tube sheets and the stamped headers or end tanks are also welded to the tube sheets, so forming an absolute tight unit.
All Sage Radiators have upper and lower tappings of standard size.
This diagram indicates that steam reaches all parts of the radiator quickly and practically no heat is held "in storage." The chart demonstrates also the advantage gained by the use of Sage Radia tors on account of their small demands on the boiler during the heating-up period.

surface radiators, especially developed to utilize the advanced principles of heating,
wherein the heat-surface is enclosed, either within the building wall or a casing.
Robras Radiators utilize the enclosure as a stack within which they induce a positive movement of the heated air, expelling it
horizontally, with sufficient. velocity to insure
a uniformity of heating thruout the adjacent
space never before achieved without fans.
Thus the Rome Brass Radiator Corpora
tion endorses this modern Method of Heating
as incomparably superior to former practice,
affording uniform comfort, economy, effective
control, freedom from enormous weight and bulk, and freedom from intrusion upon the
decorative scheme. Robras Finned Type Radiators are made entirely of brass and so constructed that
they will withstand reasonably high steam pressures. As indicated two stamped brass
side plates are electrically welded around the edges and down the center in two places.
The brass radiating fins are applied at right angles to the surface. Shouldered nipples
between sections are firmly screwed into octagonal spacers to
prevent distortion of the brass walls. End caps are screwed on
to the shouldered nipples at each end section.
Robras Radiators are sectional as described and the sections
are assembled in one or two tiers according to the space available.
They may be any number of sections deep. By the use of special
fittings sections may be connected vertically or horizontally as
illustrated.
,
.,
Sections of Robras Radiators are from 18 to 70 inches in
length and are conservatively rated from sq. ft. to 25 sq. ft.
so that 100 sq. ft. of Robras Radiator can be set. in a space 4 in.
deep, 12 in. high and 70 in. long. The ratings of Robras Radiators have been determined from
carefully prepared tests and are guaranteed when radiators are properly installed and
other conditions of the heating plant are correct. To select the proper Robras Radiator for heating a room, the matter of draft head,
or flue height of the enclosure is very important as this determines the effectiveness of
the installation.
.
The capacity tables given indicate draft heads from 12 to 60 in. Draft heads greater
than 60 in. are not recommended.
.
For example assume that B.tu. loss of the room amounts to 7200 and a recess avail
able beneath a window is 45 in. long, 4 in.
deep and the sill height is 27 in. Deducting
9 in. from the sill height to allow for inlet and
outlet grilles leaves 18 in. which is the effec
tive draft-head. To allow for. supply and
return connections 10 in. will be taken in
this case from the length of the recess, leaving
35 in. for the actual radiator.
Referring to the two-tier capacity table,
under 18-in. draft-head, we find that 32 in.
is the nearest section length and that a 4
section 32-in. radiator will give 31sq. ft.
The overall depth of this radiator is 3% in.
Several important features of Robras
Radiators should be kept in mind by engineers, architects and heating contractors:

Radiators, Concealed
1 Supply and return tappings are usually horizontal but Robras Radiators can be furnished with tappings for vertical connections from the bottom.
2--Robras Radiators are rated in sq. ft. of equivalent direct radiation making it unnecessary to add any percentage for en closing them.
3--Top and bottom grilles in the face of the wall are recommended.
4--Robras Radiators are approxi mately yi the size and only ^ as heavy as the old fashioned radiator of equal rating.
5-- --Robras Radiators can be used with any steam, vapor, or hot water heating system.
6--They are within the walls, outof-the-way and out-of-sight.

Exclusive Manufacturers of Armstrong Steam Traps
Armstrong Steam Traps
Armstrong steam traps are made in
types and sizes to meet all condensate
draining requirements. They are available
for pressures up to 600 lb. pulsating
pressures, high temperatures, acid con
ditions and for special services of all kinds.
They are ideally suited for draining unit
heaters, and steam heating systems.
Armstrong traps have many note
worthy advantages. They automatically
discharge entrapped air with the con
densate. They can not become air bound.
They are positive in operation--the valve
is either wide open or tightly closed--wire

drawing and subsequent erosion of valves and seats are eliminated. Being water
sealed at all times, no live steam can
escape. The unique construction gives a large capacity for a small size. Because of their
small size, their cost is low and installation is a simple matter. No special fittings or
supports are necessary. The sturdy construction and special wear-
resisting parts insure long life and a minimum of maintenance.
,
No. SI
The Nos. 30 and 31 traps are especially adapted for low or high pressure radiation up to 125 and 150 lb. respectively. Their low cost permits free use. A trap on each unit insures perfect drainage. A thermic unit is incorporated in each trap which holds the valve open until the trap becomes hot. This assures rapid heating of equipment.
.
The Nos. 2, 3 and 4 Armstrong Traps are the standard type for general service up to 300 lb. pressure.
The Nos. 30S to 4S Armstrong Traps are for service where there are pulsating pressures due to reciprocating engines and pumps drawing steam from a line.
For pressures up to 600 lb., steel bodies are used. The standard Armstrong Traps with steel bodies are designated as Nos. 42, 43 and 44. The special traps are numbered 42S, 43S and 44S. Traps for higher pressures can be furnished on
special order.
In Regard to Capacities
Because of smaller valves and orifices, traps for high pressures have less capacity than the same trap for lower pressures. Always state maximum pres sure when order ing steam traps.

DRAFT-BALANCER installation with Mercoid Automatic Control and Manual Cut-Out Switch showing operation of Double Ball and Socket Joints with Telescoping Sleeve
Specifications:
Consists of cast iron or aluminum housings bolted directly to ash-pit of boiler. Damper door over intake controls volume of air de livered by Sirocco fan wheel. Fan is direct con nected to Century. G. E., or Leland motor. A por tion of the air delivered by the fan is diverted over the fire by piping or metal flexible hose from orifice in adapter casting to double bail and socket telescoping coupling. This air is de livered to diffuser on inside of fire-door and sprayed over the fire for consuming the monoxide gas as it is distilled from the coal. Operation is governed by Mercoid or Contactor type . of automatic control.
The DRAFT-BALANCER enables the burning of Buckwheat No. 1 coal
without increasing the tonnage consumed or attention necessary to the fire
over that required with the use of Egg, Stove, Nut, or Pea anthracite. This is due to the unique feature of creating a balanced air supply over and under the fire, together with the carefully studied-out engineering principles which assure positive, accurate, quiet operation.
WHAT COMBUSTO IS*. To quote the late Walter S. Thrums. past
president of the A merican Society ofHeating 6* Ventilating Engineers:
" Combusto is a system carefully studied, tested and developed for
each individual different case and provides means for supplying the necessary diffused and heated air (oxygen) over the fire to
properly complete in the second stage the combustion begun in the fuel bed by distillation of gases."
WHAT COMBUSTO DOES: "Combusto is of cast iron cellular structure, the air is heated on passing through this structure and is then discharged through a large number of small apertures over the fire bed. The amount of air thus admitted having been carefully computed for the required conditions, the result is practically perfect combustion, which to the user of Combusto results in--
. Economy of fuel Fewer firings
' Complete combustion of fuel, hence--* A finer ash and reduction of clinker Elimination of coal gases
Means for producing a steady even heat."
STYLES: Combusto is manufactured in 28 basic styles---each style is capable of adjustment to meet specified conditions. Suit able styles are manufactured for practically any type of heating plant and for all sizes and grades of fuel. Definite estimates can be submitted at once if manufacturer's name and number of boiler is sent to us.

DUNHAM DIFFERENTIAL VACUUM HEATING SYSTEM
A clear conception of the underlying principle is necessary in order to obtain the best results possible. The engineer
should know what the Dunham Differen
tial Vacuum Heating System really is, in order to take full advantage of its pos
. . sibilities.
Fig.S
The system uses steam as a heating medium. This steam is supplied from the boiler direct or through controlled valves to the radiators at varia ble temperatures from 133 deg. up to 212 deg. and higher if so required. The "133 deg. temperature cor responds to 25 in. of vacu um at sea level, and 212 deg. to zero on the gauge.

C. A. Dunham Company
Specialties, Healing
By furnishing steam at this wide range of tem
peratures, it is possible to
vary the heat output of
the radiation thus pre
venting overheating. For instance, in mild weather, steam is supplied at a low temperature, therefore the
radiator will give off only
a slight amount of heat
(in fact one can hold his hand on the radiator).
As the weather gets colder
higher temperature steam
is furnished until finally in severe weather there

so that the heat given off by the radiator equals the heat lost by the building.
weather. See Figs. 1 and 2.
It is generally known that water boiling at sea level will generate steam at 212 deg.
while .up in the higher altitudes where the atmospheric pressure is less, water will boil
at much' lower temperatures. See Fig. 3. For instance, in Denver which is at an
altitude of 5279 ft. above sea level the water will boil and generate steam at about
199.7 deg. fahr.
The same pressure conditions are dupli-
cated.in the boiler and system, of the Dif
ferential Vacuum Steam Heating System. The temperature of the steam is governed by the Dunham control equipment and
the Dunham Differential Vacuum Pump
which removes the air from the system thereby reducing the pressure on the water in the boiler, or causing the steam to ex
pand through Reducing Valves when they
are used.
-
The term "Differential" is applicable
because a relatively constant differential
in pressure between the radiator and the
return is maintained, so that the air and
water will constantly flow out of the radia
tors. The steam is induced to completely'
fill them. Due to this " Differential " com
plete circulation is obtained and the radia
tors throughout the building are heated
uniformly. The "cooler" steam gives a
"mild heat," which prevents overheating.
This is more healthful, and less destructive
to decorations and furniture, than the
"hot" steam used in ordinary types of
systems.
This system is simple, easy to design
and install and very economical .in opera
tion. '
-
The system was in the transition process
from theory to practical application for
many years. There was involved in this
problem a complete revolutionizing of the
art of heating with the

Tbe Dunham Differential Vacuum
Pump operates on the Jet Exhauster principle. The Dunham Exhauster is a special design and has great air and vapor handling capacity. Under
high pressures water is supplied from the receiving tank to the exhauster' by a motor driven enclosed impeller type centrifugal pump of high ef ficiency.
The pump exhausts air and water
from return piping under very high vacuums and discharges condensate to the boiler. It is a completely as sembled compact unit ready for
piping and wiring connections.
The Differential Controller of the Pump keeps the vacuum in return. substantially higher than that carried in the radiation when the system is operating under vacuum conditions. . As a result, the circulation of steam * becomes positive and makes it pos
sible to utilise this vacuum.
The system fills with low tempera
ture steam and the radiator traps
operate exactly as they do when the
system is operating at a pressure
equal to or greater than atmosphere.
If the severity of the weather requires
more heat it is obtained by increasing
the pressure of the steam in the
system, thus increasing the steam
temperature correspondingly.

Two Sub-Atmoepheric Prtfflure ReducingValves are used as shown. Valve "A" supplies steam in mild weather. The second valve, "B" supplies steam in cold weather. In extreme weather both valves may be used if necessary.
Application l is an automatically controlled system on which a temperature controlled valve "C,M operated from a thermostat is substituted for valve "B." The
thermostat must be placed in a typical room on the most exposed side of the building at the point most remote from boiler measured along the steam piping. The thermostat location must represent the average build ing temperature and beat requirements. The tempera ture control equipment may be one of the several com mercial types according to the requirements of the building. When such an arrangement is used the valves
should be installed as shown.

so that weights come 6,ft. from the floor.
On very large installations it mil be of advantage to provide a separate set of Control Valves for each Main
Branch so that the heat to each main,portion of the building
can be controlled most economically. A separate pump
must be used for each zone.

HOFFMAN VALVES and CONTROLLED HEAT EQUIPMENT
HOFFMAN VENTING VALVES
In the Hoffman line there is a specially designed venting valve for every type of steam heating system. The basic principle used in the design of all Hoffman venting valves is that of an all-metal thermostatic member, with one or more flexible diaphragms, containing a volatile or heat sensitive fluid which causes valve action upon slight tem perature changes.
Hoffman valves have a wide pressure range in which they operate with the same degree of accuracy, for the internal fluid pressure in the thermostatic member maintains a constant relationship with the external steam pressures throughout the whole range of pressure for which each valve is intended.
Hoffman valves are automatic, non-adjustable and guaranteed to properly function for a period of five years from date of installation when installed and operated under normal conditions for which designed.
VENTING VALVES FOR ONE-PIPE SYSTEMS
ALL METAL--rNON-ADJUSTABLE--THERMOSTATIC
The No. 1 Hoffman Siphon Air Valve is designed for systems of the one-pipe gravity type, to vent all air from radiators without loss of steam. After contact of water with the valve the siphon drains all water from the valve and venting occurs without the slightest "spit" even if the radiator is under pressure.
Radiator connection, 34 in. Maximum guaranteed operating pressure, 10 lb. Furnished with special short siphons for narrow pattern radiators.
The No. 4 is used in venting mains, risers, vento stacks, coils, etc. All air is freely vented through a 34 in- vent port without steam loss, but valve does not close against water.
Standard^connection, 34 in., can also be supplied with 34 in connection. Maximum guaranteed operating pressure, 10 lb.
The No. 5 is particularly adapted for use in venting: Ends of steam or dry return mains; Indirect radiators; Blast or "Vento" stacks; Hot-water generators; Dryers and- drums, etc.
The basic principle is the same as the No. 1 Valve, having separate channels for air and water which are only found in Hoffman Valves.
Pipe connection, 34 in.; vent port for less than 3 lb. is A in.; for 3 lb. and over is -fa in. Unless otherwise ordered, will be shipped with A in. port. Maximum guaranteed operating pressure, 10 lb.

VENTING VALVES FOR ONE-PIPE VACUUM SYSTEMS
The No. 2 Siphon Air and Vacuum Valve is
similar in construction to the No. 1, but in addition,
when the radiator is once freed from air, return of air
through the vent port is prevented. Through its use an
ordinary one-pipe steam system may be changed into a
vacuum type. Radiator connection, 14 in. Maximum guaranteed
operating pressure, 10 lb. Furnished with special
short siphons for narrow pattern radiators.
How the Hoffman No. 2 Vacuum Valve Operates
--Normally venting port (2) through which air escapes
is wide open until steam comes in contact with the float
(4). Then the heat sensitive fluid in the float, the
thermostatic member, is changed to gaseous state
expanding the flexible diaphragm (7), raising the float
and closing vent port. If the radiator is shut off or for any reason steam
contact ceases, the diaphragm contracts, and the float
drops. But no air can re-enter the valve because the
air check (1) makes the port a one-way street--air can
go out but none can come back. So with the con
tinuation of condensation of steam and prevention of air return a vacuum is formed in
the system. Atmospheric pressure exerted through chamber port (10) causes diaphragm
(8) to.lift the float (4) and keep port closed.
.
In other words, the air check acts as a vacuum starter, prevents return of air for a
short period until the vacuum formed in the valve permits atmospheric pressure, acting
through port (10) to force diaphragm (8) upward, raising the float and doubly closing
the vent port.
The No. 6 Float Air and Vacuum Valve is
similar in design and application to the No. 5
with the additional feature of the Air Check or
Vacuum starter above vent port and vacuum
diaphragm in base. Used for venting ends of
mains, vento stacks, etc., where water is liable
to be present. Pipe connection, % in.; vent port for less than
3 lb. is A in.; for 3 lb. and over is A in. Unless
otherwise ordered, will be shipped with A in port. Maximum guaranteed operating pressure,
10 lb.
The No. 16 Air and Vacuum Valve is used
for venting ends of steam and dry return mains.
Valve is 3% in. high overall, permitting installa
tion in lines close to ceiling. It has the special
Hoffman feature, the combined check valve and
vacuum diaphragm for preventing return of air
No. e
to system. Pipe connection, 54 in. Vent: port
A in. dia. Maximum operating pressure, 10 lb.
The No. 3 Hoffman Air Line Valve is specially designed for Air Line, or as they are frequently termed " Paul" Systems. It is sensitive in action and closes the instant steam fills the radiator.
Radiator connection, Vk in.; Air Line connection, /4 in. Maximum guaranteed operating pressure, 10 lb.
THE HOFFMAN VALVE LOCK
Prevents theft of No. 1 and No. 2 valves in public buildings, etc. No extra tapping is required as lock is easily applied when valve is inserted in radiator. By using set screws, valve is locked in position and can only be removed by a special key.

54 in. size, angle pattern only, having a range of adjust
ment up to 200 sq. ft. of direct cast-iron radiation.
After installation, whether the system is in operation
or cold, the port of each valve is adjusted for the size
of the radiator to which it is attached.
Adjustment is simple; loosen a locknut;
turn valve handle until proper number of
graduations are visible on the dial plate;
then tighten locknut. The valve handle
may then be moved to admit sufficient steam
to heat a quarter, half, three-quarter, or
entire radiator. The valve stem stuffing
box has a frictionless metallic fibre packing

The visible adjustment aids the designing engineer by enabling heating contractor to
make a final accurate adjustment which compensates for slight irregularities in pipe sizes, failure to ream pipe, installation of extra fittings not foreseen in original layout,
etc. The advantages of an adjustable port in forced hot water systems to secure proper -balance makes the No. 7 Valve especially adaptable for such use.
The No. 7 Valve is regularly supplied with lever handle. On special orders, it can be furnished with wood wheel, lock shield, closed top, extension stem and handle, or
chain pull.
The Nos. 8 and 9 Hoffman Return Line Valves--These valves
are automatic, non-adjustable, thermostatic and relieve all air and
condensation without the loss of steam from radiators, pipe
coils, indirect radiation, steam mains and risers, steam
kettles, sterilizers and other devices where it is desired to
get full efficiency and economy without waste of steam.
In service, they have established a reputation for
efficiency and consistency of operation with the same
degree of sensitiveness under either high or low pressure.
Sectional View
The body of the valve is made of cast steam metal; cap
and tail piece are hot brass forgings; the thermostat of a
special Hoffman alloy. In continued operation the ther
mostats will not break, stretch or lose their tension, giving long life and perfect operation.
CHIEF FEATURES
The valve consistently operates under a pressure range from 13 in. of vacuum to 50 lb. steam pressure. Water at a temperature of approximately 12 deg. less than the temperature corresponding to the steam pressure causes full valve opening and free discharge of condensation.

Hoffman Differential Loop
HOFFMAN DIFFERENTIAL LOOP
The Differential Loop is the safety device for maintaining a steady water line in vapor and vapor vacuum systems. It is entirely automatic,, non-adjustable and has no moving parts to stick at a critical moment.
In operation the water rises in the return main only to a certain pre determined height. The loop then functions, blowing over a small quantity of steam which closes the No. 10 or 11*. Valve used for venting the system and then compresses the air which is "bottled up" in the return main and builds up a pressure which prevents further rise of water in the vertical part of the return beyond the predetermined amount. As soon as this is accomplished, and the action is almost instantaneous, the loop reseals and no more steam is blown over until the differential pressure is lost. It will be readily seen that, by the alternate blowing over and resealing of the loop, a constant differential pressure will be maintained between the steam main and return main. Also by the maintenance of this differential no matter how high the boiler pressure goes, circulation will start in a radiator as soon as the inlet valve is opened even though the return main vent is closed through loop action.
Standard Differential Loops are made in four sizes, to handle systems up to 15,000 sq. ft. of radiation. For larger systems the No. 4 Loops can be installed in a battery.
No. 1 and No. 2 Loops should not be'used where the low point in the dry return is less than 24 in. above boiler water line; with the No. 3 and No. 4 Loops this distance must be at least 30 in.
HOFFMAN DAMPER REGULATOR
One of the most important features of the
Hoffman Damper Regulator is the accurate
control for only sufficient pressure is maintained
to insure circulation to all radiators.
It is extremely sensitive iri its action and
Hoffman Damper Regulator
controls so efficiently that when inlet valves are
. turned on or off, the fire is accelerated or retarded
to meet the change in demand for vapor. A low constant pressure is always maintained so that vapor enters the radiator as soon as a valve is turned on.
The compensating or balancing plate is like a pair of scales. It is practically friction
less, remarkably sensitive and operates on slight changes in pressure.
It has an additional feature for the convenience of the installing fitter, in that the
fulcrum on which the lever is suspended may be turned at different angles, permitting
a straight chain connection with the dampers instead of at an angle, which might cause the dampers to bind.

""POSITION Of LEVER UNDER PRESSURE
Fig. 1 shows Damper Regulator under no pressure. Compensating plate is in its uppermost position, the bottom of the plate being in line with bottom of inlet. The space above diaphragm is filled with water up to the inlet. Weights on lever are to be so placed that they will hold the diaphragm against the perforated plate. Drafts are held open until the predeter mined pressure is generated, when through diaphragm action which in turn is trans mitted to the lever, drafts are closed.
Fig. 2 shows position of Damper Regulator when drafts are closed. Vapor pressure has overcome upward force exerted by the weights on lever arm and forced diaphragm downward. The water on the diaphragm lowers with it and like wise the compensating plate until top of the plate is level with the bottom of the inlet, thus preventing any addition to the water above the diaphragm. With a slight drop in vapor the weights force the diaphragm upward and drafts are opened.

The Hoffman Steam Trap Body is of strong, rugged all bronze construction. The diaphragms in the thermostat, the valve pins and valve seat are all made of the same non-corrosive alloy which has been successfully used for diaphragms in Hoffman Valves for a number of years.
The alloy withstands high temperature steam, and repeated action without softening or cracking. It also withstands the scoring action of steam.
A strainer is built into the trap body permitting ready removal for cleaning. All renewable parts are interchange able, permitting replacement without adjustment of any sort. The trap is built to give maximum service with minimum
attention and when repairs or cleaning are required the work can be quickly done.
The Hoffman Steam Trap normally has a wide open
vent port which is maintained until all air and condensation
is relieved from the system, after which steam contact with the thermostat closes the port. No hand operated by passes are required to vent air from the system. The trap

Kelly Brass Works
226-232 West Ontario Street Chicago, 111.
Scientific Construction
" Kelly " Valves are made especially for steam-heating service and have many fea tures which recommend their use by the engineer, architect and heating contractor.
The interior construction of "Kelly" Air Valves are identical. The float in the sectional view is sealed with a phosphor bronze diaphragm at the bottom. A definite amount of volatile liquid is placed in the float before sealing which vaporizes from the heat of the steam causing the diaphragm to expand and raise the float thereby closing the escape port in the top of the valve.
All "Kelly valves are so constructed that no adjustment is required and, no one can possibly tamper with them. They will operate under all pressures up to 10 lb., venting the radiator of the accumulated air and closing against steam and water. Any water of condensation in the valve will be drained back to the radiator through the syphon tube.
The outer shell of the valve is threaded into a drop forged brass base and the valves are substanti ally constructed of the best grade of materials.
The sectional view shows the vacuum feature at the top of the valve. The small bronze ball is loosely encased at the top, resting
over the escape port in the top of the valve. When the steam is turned on in the
radiator the slightest pressure will raise
the ball permitting the escape of all the
air until the steam begins to enter the
valve causing the volatile liquid in the float to expand the diaphragm which
raises the float and forces the float pin against the seat and closes off the escape port.
When the steam pres sure goes down a vacuum is immediately created and the small ball resting over the escape port in the top of the valve will prevent any cold air from being drawn into the radiator and as soon as the steam pressure rises
again, it will be quickly drawn into the radiator on account of the vacu um having been created therein.
d"We call your par ticular attention to the "Kelly" No. 2 Vacuum Valve illustrating the bronze ball feature, a single vacuum control.
"KELLY" Valves are subjected to practical steam and vacuum tests before shipping and are GUARANTEED FOR FIVE YEARS when Installed and operated under proper conditions

A WORD TO HEATING AND VENTILATING ENGINEERS
Obsolete and defective Return Line Radiator Traps can be recon structed and made BETTER THAN NEW by inserting the MONASH THERMOSTATIC TYPE "C" ELEMENT into the old Trap Bodies.
Have your client send us an old (half-inch) Radiator Trap complete with nut and tail piece attached and if it has a screwed-in seat, we. will replace it with our own seat and insert our MONASH Thermostatic Type "C" Element into the Trap Body, and return it to your client for test on consignment, postpaid.
This MONASH Element consists of a Diaphragm, which is the heart of the Trap, and the construction of same is illustrated and described herewith below.
If the Trap, sent us by your client, is one that we cannot reconstruct, then we will gladly furnish a MONASH Ten Year Guaranteed, Trap Complete with the proper length tail piece so that it will fit into the
roughing-in dimensions of the old Trap and no pipe fitting need be done. This will give you an opportunity to learn first hand all about the virtues of the MONASH Element in the old Trap Body or the MONASH Trap complete.
We feel confident that once you know more about the MONASH Product
you may want to specify it in your work.

MONASH THERMOSTATIC DIAPHRAGM
'
This Diaphragm is as sensitive to the various changes of temperature as the most delicate instrument, yet, so sturdy in construction that we 'do not hesitate to Guarantee it in Writing for Ten Years.
Cover (No. 1) is cast in one piece with
the guider which permits the plunger
(No. 4) to be in perfect alignment with the
seat (No. 5) when closing.
'
Diaphragm (No. 3), the heart of the Trap, is held securely in place between the adjusting screw (No. 2) and the plunger (No. 4). It is therefore a separate and independent unit not attached to any part of the Trap Body, permitting the Dia phragm to be removed without disturbing the adjustment, as this can be done from the exterior of the Trap.
, These exclusive features in the MONASH Trap are covered by . United States and Foreign patents.

STICKLE THERMOSTATIC RADIATOR TRAP
The special feature of the STICKLE Thermostatic Radiator Trap is the dia phragm; with box shape inverted heads, . side walls reinforced with seamless drawn brass tubing, a solid disc protecting each head and so constructed that thediaphragm cannot get out of place. The diaphragm is so reinforced that there is no possible chance for it to become distorted or ruptured. The flat leaf bronze spring makes a positive opening action; supplementing the spring action of the diaphragm.
STICKLE THERMIC VACUUM TRAPS
Designed for draining steam headers and risers on low pressure heating systems. A ^Thermostatic trap will close on hot water and for this reason they will not drain a steam header. This trap is mechanically operated with positive air release. No matter what the temperature of the water this trap will handle it. This is the ideal trap for Blast Coil Service, made in sizes up to 2 inch. Send for the descriptive matter.
STICKLE VAPOR VACUUM HOT BLAST HEATER
Primarily designed to operate with the condensation from the dryers of a paper machine, for heating air to ventilate the machine room. When connected to the return line of a vacuum heating system it will maintain from 10 to 15" of vacuum on the pump without the use of cooling water.
Write us regarding this heater. It has no equal. Cold air is heated and used, instead of using cooling water which goes to the sewer, i the heat being lost.

Trane Gauges are of the spring Bour don type.- Small gauges (4J4 in. in di ameter) are calibrated from 18 in. vacuum to 30 lb. pressure. Large gauges (8J4 in. in diameter) for high boilers and dark boiler rooms are calibrated from 30 in. vacuum to 30 lb. pressure.
Trane Strainers are furnished in four
sizes, ), L \M in. They are equipped with a removable strainer screen for easy cleaning. -
Trane Direct Return Trap is essen tially a safety device. No matter how carelessly the system is fired this Direct Return Trap returns the water to the boiler regardless of pressure.
Trane Damper Regulators are sensi tive to the slightest change in boiler pressures. An ounce of pressure is suf ficient to operate this regulator which results in even temperatures at all times.
Trane Bellows Radiator Traps are equipped with the standard Trane 14corrugation bellows. These bellows are made without seams or joints of any kind. Trap bodies are made of steam brass. Guaranteed operating range from any vacuum to 25 lb. pressure for low pres sure traps and from 26 lb. to 125 Ib. for
high pressure traps. All traps are factory
adjusted and carefully tested so that
operation of each and every trap is
absolutely uniform.
Trane Bellows Drip Traps are avail
able in both high and low pressure styles,
i.e., with pressure ranges from any vac
uum to 25 lb. and from 26 lb. to 125 lb. These traps are fitted with 14-corrugation
bellows members and are desirable for use
on systems where a high vacuum is carried
on the return and it is necessary to drop
the temperature of the condensate.
Trane Offset Pattern Trap is exactly
the same in construction as the bellows
radiator trap except that it is fitted with
an adjustable outlet connection that can
be swung to any position desired, elimi
nating the necessity of using right, left and
straightway pattern traps.
Trane Float Drip Trap. This trap is
especially designed for unit and blast
heater installations where rapid draining
increases the capacity of the unit. Ther
mostatic air by-pass eliminates all pos
sibility of air binding. Water discharge is
entirely regulated by float control. High
temperatures have no effect upon the
operation of-this trap.
TRANE HEATING SPECIALTIES
Bellows-Packless Valves are made in
standard sizes from to 2 in. They are strictly packless. A Trane 10-corrugation

on an industrial installation where vibra tion is prevalent as well as on residence jobs. Body is brass. Nickeled, highly polished trimmings. In addition to the standard valve illustrated special right or left hand corner-pattern valves with these general features are also available in the M in. size. These are especially suitable for Concealed Heater installations.

Steam Healing Systems and Controls
Webster Tallmadge & Co., Inc.
50 Church Street New York, N. Y.
HIGH EFFICIENCY HEATING SYSTEMS
Tallmadge Methods insure better economy, comfort, health and proficiency from correct heating of buildings, and in process work in industrial plants.
The first cost of Tallmadge Heating Systems is lower and the complete story is told
in the Bulletin " Correct Heating," which also covers Electrical Control of Zoned Orifice
Distribution.
.
Some of .the outstanding advantages of the orifice type of steam distribution are:
1. Low steam consumption of radiators,
in mild weather with just enough heat to
supply the building losses, maintaining a
more healthful atmosphere and greater
operating economy.
.
2. Simplicity of control, minimum of
devices and less elaborate piping makes these
systems economical to operate and lowers
maintenance expense.
.
3. Permits zoning of buildings for various heating and weather requirements with resultant fuel saving.

In the design and operation of the orifice type system, reference to the accompanying diagrams, indicates recognition of the following facts:
1. The most valuable heat obtainable from the steam in a radiator is the latent heat. A heating system should therefore operate at approximately 100 per cent thermal efficiency, as compared with modern power plants which have only 20 per cent economy because of loss of this latent, heat.
2. If the steam supply to a radiator is reduced it will be observed that the upper portions of the
radiator will be hot and the lower portions cold. It is therefore often unprofitable to pump the return water long distances back to the boilers as there is no appreciable heat left.
3. When the steam flows into the top of a radiator, the air being heavier, if permitted to freely do so,
will naturally flow out of the bottom and no unusual device is required to make it do so.
-
- 4. With the orifice system of distribution, the supply of steam to the radiators is so easily controlled that return valves, or radiator traps, are not essential.
5. If the return pipes are either vertical or have a slight uniform pitch downward with the flow, it is
not necessary to go to the expense of pumping a vacuum on the return piping. An ordinary return
water receiver with open vent pipe to let the air out and a pump to put the water back into the
boilers are all that are necessary.
:.
6. The modern method of selecting steam supply pipe sizes is to keep the frictional resistance or pressure drop in the steam mains within certain percentage limits of flow to the more remote radiation.

Johnson Intermediate or Graduated Action Thermostat
This thermostat has
an'all-metal movement,
giving true graduated
motion to mixing dam
pers or valves. It holds
the valves and dampers
in an intermediate posi
tion to maintain the
temperature of the room
accurately within one
degree above or below
the setting of the ther
mostats. This thermo
stat is best suited for all systems of heating and ventilating except single

pipe gravity steam systems. The Johnson
positive movement is manufactured for
use in connection with single pipe gravity
steam systems.
*
Johnson Compound Thermostat
The Johnson All-Metal Compound Thermostat combines the feature of both the Positive and Intermediate and is applicable for control of valves or dampers where certain units are to be operated positively and others inter mediately at an interval of a few degrees in temperature.
Johnson Dual or Two-Temperature Thermostat
The Dual, or two-tempeiature Thermo stat provides for a daytime temperature (usually 70) and a night-time temperature (35 to 50), as desired, for all or some of the rooms in a building, simply by the manipulation of a single push button by the engineer or other person in authority. It is an all-metal thermostat and operates valves and dampers with a gradual motion holding them in an intermediate position to maintain the temperature of the room
accurately within one degree above or below the setting of the thermostat. It is a factor for the greatest economy in school buildings, a number of rooms of which are occupied at night as well as day, and for any buildings in which some of the rooms are occupied only at certain times, such as churches, auditoriums, masonic temples and lodges.
Thermostat Covers
The covers which conceal the thermo stat proper are small,' inconspicuous and very neat in design and workmanship.
There are two distinct styles: one called the R type and one called the P type.
The R type is a
die-casting, very
beautifully designed
and used generally in residences and other
Model P Cover AWx*'xlVi"
handsomely decorated buildings.
The P type is a pressed metal cover, very finely finished but not as orna mental and artistic as the R cover, and-used more generally in schools, office buildings, hospitals and places where simple and neat design is desired rather than artistic and ornamental.

Multiple Insertion Thermostat
Similar to the insertion duct thermostat, excepting that one multiple thermostat takes the place of a number of separate duct thermostats set for different tem peratures. The 4-point multiple thermo stat shown will operate four separate diaphragm valves at as many different temperatures. It has become very popular with heating engineers for the control of heating and tempering coils where it is desired to have these coils turn on at
different tem peratures. It is a gradual acting thermo stat holding the valves and dampers in an intermediate position, to maintain the temperature of the room ac curately with in one degree above or below any desired point.
Tank Thermostat
Designed for insertion through 1-in. tapped hole in tank and controlling, in the case of hot water tanks, a diaphragm valve on the supply pipe to the steam coils in the tank. It can be used to control the temperature of any liquid, either hot or cold. It is especially adaptable for con trolling the temperature of water in hot water heating plants by its control of the boiler draft doors.
Humidostats and Humidifiers
The humidostat automatically controls the supply of moisture delivered to the air by a humidifier and maintains a con-' stant percentage of relative humidity. It operates a diaphragm valve on the steam coils in the pan humidifier. The pan is provided with float box to maintain constant water'level and is located in the ventilating air duct leading throughout the building. Steam jet and water spray types of humidifiers are also furnished.
Humidity Control
The supplying of moisture to the heated air in buildings and the automatic control of the percentage of moisture in this air are recognized by authorities to be as important as maintaining proper tem peratures.

MANUFACTURERS OF: National System' of Heat Regulation; "Metaphram" Diaphragms; "Metaphram" Damper Regulators for low pressure and hot water boilers; National Humidity Controllers; Na
tional Dampers; A-Jadks High Pressure Steam . Damper Regulators; National Cam Valves.
National Heat Regulation--National Systems of heat regulation obtain the best possible results in a simple, direct manner, avoiding complicated piping and intricate valve arrangements.
In the National System the control of valves and dampers centers in the adjust able, dust-proof National . Thermostat mounted on the wall of the room to be controlled. Thermostatic action of the sensitive, imperishable hard rubber element opens and closes the leak port of the pneumatic system connected to National Metaphram Valves on radiators or Na tional Metaphram Motors on dampers.
The National System provides for gradual control in its most successful form, together with any combination of remote control suitable for the building under consideration. Engineering assistance in plan and layout will be rendered on request, without obligation.
National "Metaphrams"--These are self-collapsing metal diaphragm units de signed and patented by this Company for the specific purpose of operating valves and dampers. The sections are con structed of high grade spring brass, which is not spun or heated in the manufacturing process, and so retains all its resiliency and strength. These diaphragms are assembled by means of finely threaded integral studs. Compressed air is applied inside the " Metaphram" and affects so large a surface that maximum power is attained with a minimum of travel.
"Metaphrams" are regularly made in sizes from 2 in. to 10 in. Correspondence is invited from engineers regarding special Metaphram assemblies.
National Dampers--(Round, Double,
or Louvre Types). National Dampers are operated by Metaphram Motors, and are successful under the most difficult con ditions. They are made in our own shops and Metaphram motors are fitted and tested to each damper before shipment.
National Dampers may be controlled by thermostats, remote control switches or by electric-pneumatic valves operated by
starting or stopping of ventilating fan motors.
Metaphram Steam Boiler Damper Regulators--A complete line of low pressure steam boiler damper regulators employing "Metaphram'' Diaphragms is manufactured to supply the right regulator for every condition and meet the varying . requirements of steam boilers.
The Type-F Regulator for hot water boilers and domestic water heaters is a sensitive and positive devise that accu rately and continuously apportions the draft required to maintain a given temperature;

Modulating Valve
Fig. 700, Jenkins Modulating Valve
-' A notable improvement over present day modulating valves lies in Fig. 700 Jenkins Modulating Valve which has a vertical instead of a horizontal seat, affording these particular advantages:
Foreign matter cannot lodge on seat and prevent tight closing of valve.
Vacuum is under disc holder, which is fitted with Jenkins Rubber
Composition Disc, with a tendency to draw disc to the seat. Spring
holds disc against seat. Seating and tightness do not depend on
threaded spindle that needs to be turned down tight to prevent
leakage.
'
This valve cannot leak around spindle.

The "Air-Out" Line

THERMOSTATIC
NON-ADJUSTABLE
"Air-Out" valves, for eliminating air from steam radiators, operate by the expansion of a phosphor bronze diaphragm, soldered on the bottom of a brass float, containing a volatile liquid. This float is large in size, allowing ample capacity for the necessary pressure to operate the diaphragm.
The seating pin at the top of float is made from nickel silver, as called for in United States Government specifications for Air Valves. Verdigris will not form on nickel silver--corrosion at the vent post is therefore reduced to a minimum.
We do not use a "stamped out " base. .Our bases are heavy bronze castings, inr one piece, with no soldered parts to break off.
Made also in straight pattern, threaded
7 and % in. for quick venting of
cellar mains and risers.
The best valve money and experience can produce and sold at reasonable prices.

. QUICK OPENING .
` A three-fourths turn will fully open a % in. valve, and from this up to one and one-quarter turns for balance of line through 2 in. These valves, account of low pitch of thread due to large diameter of cylinder,
will seal and lock against any pressure.

The Modulation or Graduation is accomplished by a cone disc nut, regulating volume of steam, ac
cording to pressure, until indicator-registers valve about two-thirds open, when the further turning of
lever handle until indicator registers open, will give full valve capacity; a feature of material value in a
valve in which volume or capacity for modulating purposes is choked down, and to meet extreme weather
conditions, full pipe capacity is required.

Fig. HI
Marsh Cone Discs are without question one of the greatest improvements in radiator valve construction in the past fifty years or since the composition disc replaced the old style metal-to-metal disc and seat.
This Cone Disc construction combined with the Marsh Re-enforced Packless Feature is the last word in completing radiator valve maximum efficiency at popular price, all of which will check 100 per cent true upon investigation.
M **
Size
Positive Seal
The above views showing cone disc and beveled seat are to actual size of a % in. valve and are made to full size to show the following advantages of this construction over the old style flat disc and seat:
First: Through design of disc and protection afforded from disc nut covering under surface they will not warp and crack as will a flat disc which overhangs valve seat.
813
Marsh Valce Company
Voltes
Second: The compression is at right angles to face of seat, forcing disc com pound inward to center, making disc more compact and harder instead of scoring and extruding over seat, opening cracks or seams if any, as with a flat disc.
Third: While the life of these cone discs because of construction, as proven by tests, is three to five times the life of a flat disc, and a CRACKED DISC IS IMPOS SIBLE, the matter of exchange if desired is very simple, as to remove, disc nut the disc will drop from disc-holder, white with a. flat disc it must be dug out, often destroying disc-holder. Further, these cone discs are reversible and tCpn be turned . over or replaced with new at the same cost as for a flat disc.
' Fourth: The beveled seat is low in valve body, giving complete drainage and will wash free from sand or scale in system, positively providing against leakage through scale or grit imbedding in disc AS IS COMMON with a raised flat seat and flat disc construction.
Fifth: Through this low beveled seat, to return condensation through valve for a one-pipe system, the flow will hold to the outer wall leaving center of valve throat and pipe free rather than shoot out over a raised seat to the center of pipe as is common with a heavy flow over a flat seat, clogging flow of steam, causing hammer or pounding of system.
The foregoing are all, each and every one, practical points which will prove out in
test and practice.

Marsh re-enforced packless Hot Water Radiator Valves are not only a boon but the
answer to hot water heating problems, permitting the same ease of operation and com plete temperature control as with steam.
These hot water valves are quick opening, can be operated--opened and closed-- with perfect ease by a child and will not stick or leak.
They will hold high pressure suitable for forced circulation up to any pressure radia tion will stand, and the cost is nominal.
MARSH RE-ENFORCED GRADUATED WATER RADIATOR VALVES
Oval Wheel, Lever Handle or Lock Shield.
Pit. 139 SOMETHING ENTIRELY NEW IN WATER HEAT REGULATION
We have made a special study of hot water heat regulation and control and are pioneers in the matter of individual radiator control, through a graduated valve, em ploying the same principle as with steam. If you can modulate, graduate, or regulate individual radiator vapor or vacuum steam heat through a valve (and you can), then why not by the same principle regulate water heat, and, for that matter more consistently than steam, as with water you have something to regulate, while with steam, to allow fire to drop below a given point, you have nothing.
For sleeping rooms, heat regulation with the Marsh Graduated water valves may be controlled with the same ease of operation and certainty of results as is possible with a Modulated valve on a steam system, and at a much less cost than for a vapor or vacuum
system installation.
'
.
Further, water circulation for each radiator, graduating for same or balancing of
system, can be increased from nothing to full pipe capacity and held or locked at any intermediate point, if desired, by simply turning dial so that stop on same will register
against indicator or pointer and locking dial in this position, preventing further opening
of valve or turning of wheel or.lever handle to the left.
These valves cost but little more than our regular water valves and much less than
steam modulated valves.

"EFFICO'* WIND-DRIVEN ROOF VENTILATORS:
The Effico Ventilator consists of a wind-driven head to which suction blades are permanently connected (on the underside) making an efficient exhaust fan. Rotation of the head creates an exhaust suction in the throat of the ventilator. There are no moving parts.
Bearings.--Effico Beatings are full ball bearings, are solidly enclosed and oil-flooded (also dust and scid proof). They are as sturdy as the best automobile bearings, aod will run in a drystate for years, but we oil-flood them as an extra precaution.

full speed) by manual control, thus allowing a great
volume of air to be exhausted at will.
Effico Internal Louver Unit Ventilators
The Effico internal louver unit comprises the
Effico rotary ball bearing ventilator head con
structed with a specially short base, or neck. In
this base is built a circular multiple blade louver
damper. The damper is carefully balanced and
heavily constructed. The blades lap and are fitted
in a circular frame. It is adaptable for manual
control, but is intended for a thermostatic control
system. The roof base is very low, is part of this
unit and is supplied with either the square or round
base.
.
The roof base and the ventilator head are con
nected by means of angle iron companion rings,
which give solidity and facilitate the taking down of the ventilator when required. Each ventilator neck
has also a tight fitting door to give free access to the
louvers and to the operating motor. 'The operating
motor is suspended underneath the damper to a
cross brace. The object of the specially low base
and the low roof base is to make the entire unit as low to the roof as possible.
Effico Louver Dampers
Made of stretcher leveled sheet steel. The pneumatic damper motor is supplied and installed with these units unless not desired. (Note speci fications below).
Effico Louver Unit Low height. The Effico louver unit sets very low
(note dimensions at right).
Height above Coping - Louver Unit "C" dimension should be above
coping.
Effico Rotary Ball Bearing Ventilator Head
The Effico rotary ball bearing ventilator head is already lower in height by 50 per cent than other rotary types of ventilator. By using the con struction as,, outlined above, the entire unit is brought as low to the roof as is permissible to still allow the air free exhausting, and to maintain the outlets above the snowline. By adopting the. circular multiple louvers, of which we are the in ventors; we can standardize on sizes and build the round louver for considerably less than the square or rectangular styles, many of which we have built in the past years.
By installing same in the neck of the ventilator at our shop, we not only give a perfect fit, but also eliminate all indefiniteness as to the correct location and size of the damper and cut the installing cost to one-quarter. It is also easier to install the operating
motor and makes it more accessible. The size of the damper is the full size of the stack, and yet is about 40 per cent smaller in area than those here tofore used in the square or rectangular louver, again reducing the cost considerably. By supplying
the contractor with the complete unit the builder is assured of a well designed, uniform and complete apparatus.
Heretofore, the contractor purchased the venti lator from one manufacturer, probably built the
roof base himself, and purchased the dampers elsewhere, or even the dampers were supplied and installed by another contractor. This added materially to the cost.
