Text Appearing Before Image:
pparatus. A drip pipe from bottom of the trap con-necting into the return below the water line of the boiler, relievesit of all water carried into it through the air line. At the topof the trap is the opening through which the air is exhausted andan equalizing pipe from boiler is also connected into it at this point. A special automatic air valve is used on each radiator, whichcloses against the steam and opens again as the radiator cools,permitting the exhausting of all air carried into the radiator bythe steam. Fig. 164 shows the application of this system. Vapor Heating The Broomell System is distinctly a vapor system, the tempera-ture never exceeding that of water at the boiling point, namely 212 VAPOR AND VACUUM EXHAUST HEATING 179 degrees. The piping for this system while smaller than used forsteam has the appearance of the piping of a two-pipe system, thesmaller pipe being the drip through which the air and water of condensation are carried back to the boiler th li an apparatus

Fig, 104.—The Ryan system of vacuum heatinf which is described as a combined receiver, relief apparatus anddraught regulator. A few loops of indirect radiation termed acondensing coil are located adjacent to and above this receiver anda connection is made from the top of the receiver to the bottomof the coil. From the top of this coil an air pipe is run into the 180 PRACTICAL HEATING AND VENTILATION chimney. The draught in the chimney exerts a pull on the appa-ratus, causing a partial vacuum on the system, which not onlyexhausts the air, but at the same time accelerates the flow of vaporthrough the radiators and coils. The pressure on this system isslightly above that of the atmosphere and is registered in ounceson the receiver. See Fig. 165. This receiver is the real heart ofthe system, regulating the draughts of the boiler by a ball-floatattachment and acting as a separator and equalizer in dividing the Return
