32 MARINE REVIEW January, 1925 S. S. Bowes Castle Superheaters Show Marked Economy— Practically No Maintenance The superheaters in the Bowes Castle were installed in 1913 and are still working effectively. There has also been no trouble in operation from piston rings or packing. Steam at the throttle is delivered at 570 deg. F.and185 |b. pressure. The average daily fuel consumtion, at a speed of 11 knots, is 41 tons of American coal for all purposes; about 1.35 per i.h.p. Contrast this with the Egremont Castle of the same fleet, having a deadweight capacity of 400 tons less than the Bowes Castle and operating on saturated steam. She burns 45 tons of coal per day for a speed of 101% knots. More than 3,000 ships flying all flags are operating with greater economy, due to Elesco type superheaters. _THE SUPERHEATER COMPANY bed : - S 17 East 424 Street Peoples Gas Building S NEW YORK CHICAGO PHILADELPHIA BOSTON PITTSBURGH CANADA : THE SuUPERHEATER COMPANY LTtpD., MONTREAL. TODD SHIPYARDS, INC., licensed by THE SUPERHEATER COMPANY under Schmidt and other patents Maxim silencers in 8-in. exhausts on two Lombard Diesel Engines, as installed in motor barges “Twin Cities’? and ‘‘Twin Ports’’. Maxim Silencers are easily the best devices for their purpose This for the following good reasons: 1. By their use, the loudest suction inlet pull or exhaust blast is completely silenced or reduced to a gentle puff that is audible only within a few feet of the pipe opening. 2. The work of quieting not only imposes no harmful pressure reduction, but in the case of internal combustion exhausts, is an actual stimulus to constant useful power delivery. —F wh iN \ 3. ‘ The silencer easily outlasts the unit on which it is installed.
