CEMENT
Even an unskilled laborer does a good job--speedily--with B-H No. 1 Cement. This unique prod uct sticks instantly--on any sur face; no sliding off or rolling up behind the trowel; no droppings when applied to under-surfaces. You get a neat, workmanlike job every time--without trouble and without waste.
B-H No. 1 Cement brings you many other advantages. Because its basis is black Rockwool--high in resistance to both heat and moisture--it resists temperatures up to 1800 F.--even under the most humid conditions.
Because it contains a special rust-inhibitor, it safeguards metal from corrosion and assures a per manent bond. Because its calcium content is low, its silica content high, it does not disintegrate.
B-H No. 1 Cement can be stocked without breakage or loss and is reclaimable up to 1200 F. Thus it is in every way practical for maintenance work--especially for valves, fittings and irregular surfaces, large or small, and as a finish over blanket and block in sulations.
The coupon below will bring you full information and a practi cal sample of B-H No. 1 Cement.

This point on the diagram shows ji deg superheat. Since the enthalpy fa? 34.7 psia, saturated, is 1167, the diffeif
ence of 9 Btu has gone into superheat giving 18 deg. If there must be no sapep heat in the exhaust at half load, install
a desuperheater or reduce the throttle
superheat by about 18 deg. This gives about 1% moisture in the exhaust il
full load, but no superheat at half load A line connecting throttle and exhaust
points shows the steam condition at any' pressure during expansion. To bleed at 50 psi (64.7 psia) we find by the inters, section of the pressure line with the coat dition lines that there is 40 deg. supegi heat at full load and 56 at half load.
Steam rate of a bleeder, or extraction turbine is about 3% higher than of out designed for no extraction. For more accurate temperature estimates at ef traction points draw a new condition lit
for the higher steam rate. We have had to omit a large number
of refinements in this explanation. Some

Turbine efficiencies, vary with size, load, throttle pressure an<f temperature, and exhaust pressure, all of which must be included in such caF dilations as multistage feedwater heat; ing. We are interested in safe exhaust temperatures and these approximations give the temperatures within about 1,
deg, which is as much accuracy as l*.
