to be handled from direct radiation, direct-indirect radiation and indirect or fan blast radiation may be estimated as follows:

For direct radiatiqn
W = 0.3 R
For direct-indirect radiation W = 0.6 R

.W.. = Q,X, 60w X..--T 55.6 X H
.
W = lbs. of condensate per hour, R = sq. ft. of radiation, Q = cu. ft. of air per min., T = temperature rise of air in deg. fahr. and H = the latent heat of steam in the system in B.t.u. per pound.
The normal capacity of pumps to be based on condensate at a tempera ture of not over 180 deg. fahr. For temperature of condensate above 180 deg. fahr. capacity should be increased above that estimated for 180 deg. fahr. condensate as per the following Table 63.

To use Table 63, multiply the quantity of condensate to be handled by the factor corresponding to the temperature of the condensate at the pump suction and select a pump suitable for the quantity thus found.
The above increase in pump capacity may be reduced by providing a static head above the pump suction and when this static head is made equivalent to 15 ft. minus the absolute boiling pressure of the condensate (measured in feet of water) no increase is necessary.
Allow sufficient head in addition to the total head necessary to over come static head, velocity head, pipe friction and boiler pressure, wherever condensate is to be returned direct to a boiler from the pump.
BOILER FEED PUMPS
Types.--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 pumps.
Capacities.--The capacity of a boiler feed pump should be based on
34.5 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 2 for intermittently operating pumps and a factor
of safety allowance of 1)4 for continuous operating pumps, to provide
for unusual demands when the water in boilers becomes low or excessive
loads are carried.

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
