PREFACE. THE hearty reception of " Practical Handbook on Pump Construction," together with the request of numerous readers for further and more detailed information upon the subject, has induced me to continue the pleasant task of placing at the disposal of those desiring to design or judge of the best steam pump for a particular purpose, all necessary information. I have been persuaded to append the orthodox tables of areas, &c. 5 for reference, together with new tables of squares and cubes, and fourth and fifth powers advancing by -J, J, and J. I trust this book will merit its title and prove as suc- cessful as the last, though any suggestion, as before, will be duly considered. P. K. B. GLOUCESTER, 1889. CONTENTS.

INTRODUCTION. IT is apparently difficult to give a satisfactory solution to the question, " What is a direct-acting pump f " or " What is the difference between a direct-acting pumping engine and a direct-acting steam pump ? " Mr. Robert Grimshaw, in his ' Pump Catechism,' asks, " What is a direct-acting steam pump ? " and thus solves the question: "One in which there is no rotary motion, the piston being reversed by an impulse derived from itself, at or near the end of each stroke. There is but one steam cylinder for one water cylinder ; the valve motion of the steam cylinder being controlled by the action of the steam in that cylinder." Now, according to this theory, a " Cornish pumping engine " and a " Bull engine " are both steam pumps. Mr. Stephen Michel 1, in his book, 'Mine Drainage/ gives : " What is a steam pump ? " " An answer is not easily found ; the term is so elastic and so loosely applied, and may be made to comprehend so much . . . that a satis- Z DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE factory answer cannot be given to the question, but engineers appear to apply the term to any compact machine, vertical or horizontal, for pumping water (or other liquid) in which the power of the steam is applied direct to a plunger or piston, one or more moving in a water cylinder or water cylinders, and the steam and water parts are either on a common bed-plate or foundation, or are otherwise so imme- diately and closely connected as to form, as it were, one machine. The term is not entirely restricted to single- cylinder engines, but in the case of a combination of steam cylinders the engines are known as compound steam pumps, in contradistinction to the simple pumps. By many en- gineers the term appears only to be applied to the single- cylinder engines ; the compound pumps, from their greater size and importance, taking rank with other and more extensive forms of machinery, and for which the term steam pump is an insignificant designation." A " direct-acting pumping engine " is a machine for raising water, so constructed that the pump is worked by the motive-power cylinder, in which the steam is cut off at any required part of the stroke, without the intervention of beams, connecting-rods, cranks, or fly-wheel. A " direct-acting steam pump " is a similar machine for raising liquids, so constructed that the pump is worked direct by the motive-power cylinder, but the steam is ad- mitted into the steam cylinder through the whole stroke of the piston. AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. GENERAL REMARKS. DIRECT-ACTING pumps for dip workings in collieries and mines are best worked by compressed air ; it dispenses with the hot steam pipes and exhaust steam, and improves the ventilation in the workings by the cool exhaust air. When worked by steam a condenser ought to be used : either an injection condenser fixed behind the pump cylinder, having an air pump actuated by a prolongation of the pump rod ; or a suction condenser, by means of which the exhaust steam is sucked out of the steam cylinder by the suction of the pump and condensed by the suction water before entering the pump. In dip workings it is very advantageous to use a lot of small pumps, instead of one large one, for in dry seasons one or two of them can be worked whilst the others are standing, therefore no more steam is used than actually necessary ; and in case of one breaking down, the other pumps can be worked to keep the water down during repairs. When fixing direct-acting pumps the perpendicular suc- tion height should be as little as possible, and the length of the pipe the same; the pump then can be run at a good speed and still ensure the barrel of the pump being perfectly filled with the liquid. Loss of Steam in Pipe going down a Pit or Mine Shaft. With regard to the condensation of steam in pipes, the late Mr. Walter May, of Birmingham, made some experi- ments with a length of 8 feet of steam pipe, clothed with B 2 i DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE hay-bands, and outside the covering of hay-bands there was a covering of zinc. The pipe was of cast iron, 3 inches inside and 3J inches outside diameter, and 6J inches out- side the covering. The condensation depended upon the completeness of the covering, being rather less where the covering was well done, and rather greater where it was not quite so good. There was 40 Ib. pressure of steam per square inch in the pipe; the temperature of the air was 75 Fahr. The condensation per hour, in the pipe, was found to be an average of 0' 125 Ib. of water per square foot of the outside surface of the covering, or 0'219 Ib. per square foot of the outside surface of the pipe. The amount of loss by condensation has since been ascer- tained by actual practice at the Clay Cross Colliery, near Chesterfield, where there is a pipe 7*- inches internal dia- meter, 1100 feet long. The loss of steam by condensation was ascertained by direct measurement of the water depo- sited in a receiver, and was found to be 8 cubic feet of water per hour when the engines were standing, and 12 cubic feet per hour when working at the ordinary speed of 10 double strokes per minute, or 60 feet piston speed, with a steam pressure of 45 Ib. per square inch. Taking the average duty of the coal at 9 Ib. per cubic foot of water, the loss of coal from the condensation of the steam in the pipe amounts to 72 Ib. per hour when standing, and 108 Ib. per hour when working, and the loss per twenty-four hours would therefore be 2160 Ib. if the engines are standing half the time, or '2592 Ib. if working continually. These observations were made by the engineer, Mr. Howe, for Henry Davy, Esq. This makes the loss equivalent to about 1 Ib. of coal per indicated horse-power per hour for every 100 feet of steam pipe ; but there is no doubt that if the pipes had been in the upcast shaft, and well covered with a good non-conducting material, the loss would have been less. AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 5 At Tynewydd Colliery, when tbe inundation occurred in April 1877, the loss in conveying steam 130 yards through a 2J-inch pipe was 8 Ib. per square inch, the steam being supplied at 110 and used at 102 Ib. per square inch at the pump. DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF DIRECT-ACTING STEAM PUMPS. ADVANTAGES. THAT, having neither connecting rods or fly-wheel, the space occupied is very small ; they are, therefore, very applic- able for collieries, mines, and boiler houses, or any other situation where a limited space is allotted to the pumping machinery. Their weight is small in proportion to their power, and they are, therefore, easily removed from place to place, as required. For dip workings in collieries and mines they can be mounted upon wheels and lowered down the incline to follow the water. The long suction pipes, so objection- able, and the cause of many accidents to the pump, being dispensed with. 'Where long suction pipes are necessary the direct-acting pump is by far the best, because the speed of the water is constant through the entire length of the stroke, being pro- portionate to the movement of the pump and steam pistons, which is not the case with rotative or fly-wheel pumps, where the speed of water in the pipes continually changes, and in the middle of the stroke, when it should be least, is above three times as great as the average speed. The stroke of a properly designed direct-acting steam pump commences suddenly, which causes all the pump valves to close instantly, the piston then moves at a uniform steady speed, and finishes gradually with a slight pause; this latter retardation allowing the pump valves to fall gradu- AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 7 ally, and when the sadden commencement of the next stroke occurs, the valves are nearly down on their seats. The wear and tear is very small by reason of the few working parts ; only a little oil is necessary for lubrication ; the pump can be worked night and day, simply requiring a visit two to three times each shift for oiling. Their simplicity is a special recommendation, for, with the exception of repairs (when duplicate parts can generally be obtained at once from the maker), any unskilled person can attend to them. All the foundation necessary is a short piece of timber, for the small sizes ; the larger sizes requiring a timber frame, or, if the floors in the mines or pits are good, they can be put down without any further preparation than levelling the floor. Direct-acting steam pumps are particularly applicable for pumping direct into hydraulic presses, without an accumu- lator, because at the commencement, when the resistance is small, they run fast, with a long stroke, which is gradually reduced until the pressure has reached its height. By this arrangement it is impossible to get too great a pressure, which occurs when the fly-wheel types are used, the result being either broken pipes or presses. DISADVANTAGES. Some direct-acting steam pumps in the market, especially those with steam-moved valves, are wrong in principle and badly made, the consumption of steam is then sufficient to entitle them to the name often given, " steam eaters." All users of steam pumps should, therefore, be careful in their choice, or otherwise nothing but disappointment will follow. A difficulty is often experienced in starting these pumps. This may be entirely due to the use of bad lubricant, 8 DIRECT-ACTING TUMPING ENGINE which, becoming thick, chokes up the small holes in the valves and valve chest necessary in this class of pump. If worked by compressed air, the same is liable to occur by reason of the formation of ice. Choice should be made of those pumps in which a small number of large holes is used. Tappets should always be avoided, especially internal tappets ; they are liable to stick and become burred at the ends by the constant tapping against the piston at each end of every stroke. In most direct-acting steam pumps, with steam-moved valves, there exists another disadvantage, that the length of the piston's stroke varies with the load against which the pump is working. If the load is heavy they work with short strokes, thus the lighter the load the longer the stroke. This objection does not exist in pumps with mechanically- moved valves. This is a great advantage when pumping direct into hydraulic presses. Pumps with long or deep pistons are objectionable on account of their weight and the great space they occupy ; this is especially the case 'in the larger sizes. The piston in this class of pump must be longer than the length of the pump stroke ; therefore these pumps are always made with a short stroke, usually equal to the diameter of the steam cylinder, an objection explained on page 22. AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. CLASSIFICATION OF DIEECT - ACTING PUMPING ENGINES AND STEAM PUMPS. THE pumping engines and steam pumps are classified, according to the manner in which the steam valves are actuated, into the following three clauses. A. MECHANICALLY-MOVED VALVES. B. STEAM-MOVED VALVES. C. PARTLY MECHANICALLY- AND PARTLY STEAM-MOVED VALVES. A. THE MECHANICALLY-MOVED VALVES ARE SUBDIVIDED into : a. Those which cut off the steam automatically according to tlie resistance against the pump. b. Those which have a fixed cut-off. c. Those which carry the full pressure of the steam all through the stroJce. B. STEAM-MOVED VALVES ARE SUBDIVIDED into : a. Actuated on the positive principle ; that is, those in which the main valve is moved over by the direct pressure of the steam. 1st. Those which have two valves, of which the supplementary valve moves first, and then the main valve. 2nd. Those which have two valves, of which the main valve moves first, then the supplementary valve. 3rd. Those which have only one valve. 10 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE b. Actuated on the negative principle ; that is, those in which the main valve is moved over by means of a negative exhaust. C. PARTIALLY MECHANICALLY- AND PARTIALLY STEAM- MOVED VALVES. Those in which the supplementary valves are moved by levers or tappets from the piston rod and the main valves actuated by steam. AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 11 DESCRIPTION OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF YALYE GEAR. A. MECHANICALLY-MOVED VALVES WITH AUTOMATIC CUT-OFF. ONLY large pumping engines are fitted with this class of gear, and are manufactured both simple and compound, the latter, of course, being the most economical. THE " DAVEY " DIFFERENTIAL GEAR. The valve gear for single-cylinder pumping engine fitted with this gear is illustrated in Fig. 1, Plate I. The main slide valve G receives its motion from a lever L, to the centre of which it is connected. The lever receives two motions, one at the end D, derived directly from the main parts of the engine by another lever of the first order, which, receiving the full motion of the piston at the long end, imparts from its short limb to the end D of the lever L the amount of motion suitable to the working of the valve ; and another motion derived from a subsidiary piston J. This subsidiary piston receives its motion from the steam in the main slide chest by means of a small valve I, and gives motion to the cataract piston K, working in a cylinder filled with water, which escapes from side to side through a small opening, that can be regulated at pleasure by means of the valve or plug Q. This cataract regulates the speed of the piston J and, consequently, the motion of the end M of the lever L to which it is attached. The valve I admitting steam on the subsidiary piston J is actuated by means of a 12 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE lever N, to which it is attached, and this lever, usually fixed at P, receives motion from the lever L by a connecting link. When it is required to start the engine, motion can be given to the valve I by removing the pivot P of the lever N, and moving the lever by hand at the end O. Figs. 2, 3, 4, and 5,* Plate II., are not drawn to scale, but are intended to show clearly the action of the gear. The main slide valve G is actuated by the piston rod through a lever H working on a fixed centre, which reduces the motion to the required extent and reverses its direction. The valve spindle is not coupled direct to this lever, but to an inter- mediate lever L, which is jointed to the piston rod of the small subsidiary steam cylinder E, which has a motion independent of the engine cylinder, its slide valve I being actuated by a third lever N, coupled at one end of the intermediate lever L, and moving on a fixed centre P at the other end. The motion of the piston J in the subsidiary cylinder E is con- trolled by a cataract piston K on the same piston rod, by which the motion of this piston is made uniform throughout the stroke; and the regulating plug Q can be adjusted to give any desired time for the stroke. The intermediate lever L has no fixed centre of motion, its outer end M being jointed to the piston rod of subsidiary cylinder E, and the main valve G consequently receives a differential motion compounded of the separate motions given to the two ends of the lever L. If this lever had a fixed centre of motion at the outer end M, the steam would be cut off in the engine cylinder at a constant point in each stroke, on the closing of the slide valve by the motion derived from the engine piston rod; but inasmuch as the centre of motion at the outer end M of the lever shifts in the opposite direction with the movement of the subsidiary * Trans. I. M. E., "Direct-acting Pumping Engines," by Henry Davey, 1874. AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 13 piston J, the position of the cut-off point is shifted, and depends upon the position of the subsidiary piston at the moment when the main slide valve closes. At the begin- ning of the engine stroke the subsidiary piston is moving in the same direction as the engine piston, as shown by the arrows in Fig. 2, Plate II. ; and in the instance of a light load, as illustrated in Fig. 3, Plate II., the engine piston having less resistance to encounter, moves off at a higher speed, and sooner overtakes the subsidiary piston moving at a constant speed under the control of the cataract; the closing of the valve G is consequently accelerated, causing the earlier cut-off. But with a heavy load, as in Fig. 4, the engine piston encounters greater resistance, moves off more slowly, and the subsidiary piston has time consequently to advance further in its stroke before it is overtaken, thus retarding the closing of the main valve G and causing it to cut-off later. At the end of the engine stroke, Fig. 5, the relative positions become reversed from Fig. 2, in readiness for the commencement of the return stroke. The subsidiary piston being made to move at a uniform velocity by means of the cataract, the cut-off consequently takes place at the same point in each stroke, so long as the engine continues to work at a uniform speed; but if the speed of the engine becomes changed in consequence of a variation in the load if, for instance, the load be reduced, causing the engine to make its stroke quicker, the subsidiary piston has not time to advance so far in its stroke before the cut-off takes place, and the cut-off is therefore effected sooner. On the contrary, if the load be increased, causing the engine stroke to be slower, the additional time allows the subsidiary piston to advance further before the cut-off takes place, and the cut-off is consequently later. This adjustment of cut-off point in accordance with each variation in the load is entirely self-acting, and takes place instantly, 14: DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE however sudden or extensive the variation in the load on the engine may be ; consequently the engine is rendered safe in working against variable loads, as it automatically and in- stantly varies the distribution of steam with every increase or decrease of the resistance. The* action of the differential valve gear is so sensitive that the load on the engine may be greatly varied whilst in full work without requiring hand control by the stop valve ; engines on this plan may accord- ingly be employed to pump direct into town mains without the use of stand pipes or balance valves. The force acting on the subsidiary piston J, is much greater than that required for moving its slide valve, the excess being absorbed in driving the fluid in the cataract cylinder K through the small adjustable aperture Q : and as the resistance of the fluid increases as the square of the velocity, a very small variation only in the speed of the subsidiary piston can be effected by a considerable varia- tion in the force upon it; so that the speed is main- tained practically constant for a given adjustment of the cataract plug Q, although the boiler pressure of steam may vary. The main slide valve G is opened at the beginning of each stroke by the motion of the subsidiary piston, which is controlled by the cataract ; and a pause is consequently given at the completion of each single stroke of the engine, which allows time for the pump valves to fall to their seats. Slip in the water is by this means prevented, or, at least, greatly reduced, as well as the shock which occurs when pump valves close under the pressure from a moving plunger. This freedom from shocks in the pump is an important point, giving safety from accidents, such as the bursting of pipes ; and at the same time the durability of the valves and seats are materially increased. AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 15 COPE AND MAXWELL'S SELF-GOVERNING VALVE GEAR.* The self-governing motion, like the differential motion, was introduced to ensure economy of fuel, to produce a positive motion of the valves at all times, and for regulating the motion of the main piston, under all circumstances, to which pumping engines are subject by suddenly increased or diminished load on the pump or pumps, and thereby render the engine safe under variable loads, by varying the pressure of steam in the main steam cylinder or cylinders, according to the load or resistance against which the piston works. This is accomplished by actuating the main slide valve of the engine by the combined motion of a valve- moving cylinder and a valve-moving piston. The valve- moving cylinder receives its motion from the main piston of the engine by means of levers, and consequently has a motion which varies with the velocity of the main piston. The valve-moving piston is actuated by the direct pressure of steam, and has its motion controlled and rendered constant by a cataract governor. The valve-moving cylinder and valve-moving piston travel in opposite directions, the one acting upon the main valve to cause it to open the steam ports, and the other to shut off the admission of steam. The resultant of these two motions is to cause a motion of the main slide valve, which varies with every minute increase or decrease of the resistance of load upon the main piston. Fig. 6, Plate III., represents a longitudinal section ; Fig. 7, a plan ; and Fig. 8, a cross section of an engine fitted with the self-governing gear. In this arrangement of gear both the valve-moving cylinder and cataract governor travel. A represents the main cylinder, provided with the usual * Trans.

This valve admits steam alternately on either side of the valve-moving piston F ; N is the supplementary valve spindle, which is provided with two tappets 0, and on the end of this spindle provision is made for the hand-working lever, shown in plan, Fig. 7, Plate III. J is a pipe admitting steam from the main valve chest to the valve-moving cylinder chest, and K is a pipe leading from the valve-moving cylinder to the main exhaust L. These pipes work in glands, shown in plan. The cataract governor P consists of a plain cylinder with a port or passage leading from one end of the cylinder to the other, and an adjusting plug fitted in the middle of this passage for regulating the speed of the valve-moving piston, and consequently of the main slide valve, which is attached to the same rod, E being the main levers, working on a fulcrum S ; the bottom end of these levers are, by the two links T, connected to a horn or arm U, which is fastened to the main piston rod V, with two set screws or a cotter. At the top part of the main lever, a little distance above the fulcrum, are two side links W, which connect the levers E to the cataract cylinder ; the top ends of these levers are prolonged and fitted with small rollers for working the tappets ; the valve-moving and cataract cylinders arc coupled together by two stays X X. The action of this gear is as follows : By the position of the valve I, shown in the sectional elevation, steam will be admitted to the right-hand side of the valve-moving cylinder Q, and thus move the main valve towards the left, AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 17 and by that means admits steam into the main cylinder at the right end, consequently commences to move the main piston towards the left. But as soon as the piston com- mences to travel, the top part of the main lever R will also travel, but in the reverse direction, towards the right, and the valve-moving and cataract cylinders go with it ; the slide valve will still move onward to the left, till the valve- moving piston F has come to the end of the valve-moving cylinder, when the main valve will be taken back by the valve-moving cylinder and cut off the steam. The rollers on the top of the main levers will strike the lappets before the main piston has arrived at the end of its stroke, and thus, by reversing the supplementary valve, the whole is reversed. Assuming that the engine has commenced its stroke, and the resistance is very great, the main piston travels on slowly, but the valve-moving piston will travel as fast as the cataract governor will allow. The main slide valve will go to the end of its stroke before the main lever has time to pull the valve-moving and cataract cylinders back, con- sequently cutting off the steam late. But if the reverse should occur through the load being light, the main piston will travel fast and pull the valve-moving and cataract cylinders back before the main valve has had time to travel to the end of its stroke, and therefore cut off the steam from the main piston early. Another arrangement of the self-governing gear is illus- trated in Fig. 9, Plate IV. In this case only the cataract governor moves. Referring to the illustration, it will be seen that the crosshead driven by the piston A of the steam cylinder is connected by a link to the lever a, having its fulcrum on a bracket above the piston rod. The upper end of the lever a is in its turn connected by the links b to the cataract cylinder c, which slides on the bracket already c 18 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE mentioned. The piston in the cataract cylinder is connected by the rod d with the pistons i i' working in the auxiliary cylinders above the main steam cylinders, these pistons giving motion to the main slide valve h. On the top of the cataract cylinder is arm e, which, as the cylinder moves to and fro, comes in contact alternately with the tappets ff on the rod of the same auxiliary slide valve g. The action of the arrangement is as follows : Let us suppose the parts to be in the position shown in Fig. 9, Plate IV., and the pump to be started by shifting the small auxiliary slide g towards the left. Steam will then be admitted through the passage h' against the valve piston i', and the main slide valve will be forced towards the left, thus admitting steam to the right-hand end of the main steam cylinder. The main piston rod will then move towards the left hand, and in so doing the cataract cylinder c will be moved towards the right, the effect being that if the main piston A moves at a greater rate than that at which the cataract piston is allowed to move, the main slide valve will be carried back towards the right, and the admission of steam to the right-hand end of the main cylinder will be stopped. During the stroke in the reverse direction the opposite action will, of course, take place. MECHANICALLT-MOVED VALVES, WHICH CARRY FULL PRESSURE OF THE STEAM ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE STROKE.

AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 19 valve, which is worked therein over the steam ports F, F', G, G', by means of the valve spindle H, which passes through a stuffing box J, and is connected at its outer end by means of a link K to a vibrating lever L on a rocking shaft M. In connection with the other steam cylinder there is a similar rocking shaft N, carrying at one end a vibrating lever 0, which, through a link P, communicates motion to the valve spindle and slide valve of the other cylinder. On the opposite end of the rocking shafts are keyed two levers Q E, which are connected at their lower extremities to the blocks S T, which are secured near the middle of the piston rods 0. On referring to Fig. 10, it will be seen that on the advance of the piston in the steam cylinder A, the block S on the piston rod C of that cylinder will, through the intervention of the vibrating lever 0, cause the rocking shaft N to vibrate in its bearing, and push forward the valve spindle of the other cylinder, and thereby open the valve of that cylinder ; and, on the other hand, the block T on the piston rod will, through the intervention of the other vibrating lever, cause the rocking shaft to vibrate on its bearing, and thereby com- municate motion to the valve spindle H and valve E of first-mentioned cylinder. Of course, on the return stroke, the reverse action of the valves takes place. It will thus be understood that the piston rod of steam cylinder No. 1 will actuate the valve gear of the cylinder No. 2, and the piston rod of the latter will actuate the valve gear of the cylinder No. 1. In order to form a cushion of steam in front of the piston at the end of the stroke, the exhaust ports are closed before the piston reaches the end of the cylinder : an arrangement for effecting this object is shown in Fig. 10, Plate V., in which it will be seen that there are five steam ports F, F', G, G', V. The ports F F' are the induction ports for admit- ting steam to the ends of the cylinders. The steam is supplied c 2 20 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE to the valve chest in the ordinary manner ; G, G', are the exhaust passages, which, by means of the hollow space W in the valve E, communicate with the central exhaust port V, \\hich is common to both passages G G'. It will therefore be understood that, instead of using the same port alter- nately as an inlet and exhaust port as heretofore, the ports F F' are never used except for steam passages, and the ports G G' are always used as exhaust passages. By this arrange- ment of ports the piston, as it arrives near the end of its stroke, is made to close the exhaust ports, and thereby con- fine a cushion of steam between the face of the piston and the end of the cylinder, as the inlet passage F will not be open until the piston has rested for a second of time, so as to give time for the valves to be changed. The inlet port F will then be opened by the piston of the other cylinder moving the valve, and on the admission of steam the piston will be driven back the action of one blending into that of the other, as each alternately takes up the load ; the result being that the delivery is uniform, a uniform pressure is maintained in the main, and the pumps, under heavy or light pressure, operate without jar or noise. " FIELDING'S " DUPLEX PUMPS. The duplex pumps usually consist of two entirely distinct and complete engines, placed side by side, the slide valve of each being operated by the crosshead of the other. The distinctive feature of the " Fielding " duplex is, that, instead of each cylinder A B, Figs. 12, 13, 14, Plate VI., baing fitted with its own slide valve, a single valve C, Fig. 12, serves both cylinders, an arrangement which occasions a reduction in the number of wearing parts. As the steam distribution to each engine is due, like in Lee's gear, to the movement of the crosshead of the other, each pump plunger AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 21 begins its stroke before the other comes to rest. In this way the flow of water in the suction and delivery pipes is steadily maintained with little or no pulsation, whilst a pause is made by each piston or plunger, as the case may be, at the end of its stroke, enabling the chamber to be completely charged ; and the valves quietly seating by their own weight alone. The slide valve C is of the semi-cylindrical or Corliss type, working upon a concave bored valve face, in which two pairs of cylinder ports D E, F G are arranged around a central exhaust port H, the latter, as also the exhaust cavity J in the slide valve, being common to both pairs of cylinders A and B. The slide valve receives a longitudinal to-and-fro movement by means of suitable levers from the piston rod crosshead of one engine, whilst from that of the other it receives an oscillating motion about its axis, with which the axis of the valve spindle coincides. The two motions are quite distinct from, and independent of, each other. The steam ports, which are controlled by the valve's longitudinal motion, lead to the cylinder of the engine, which imparts to it the oscillating motion, and vice versa. Tne pistons are cushioned in the manner usual in this class of engine, the cylinder ports being placed at a distance from the ends of the cylinders, and the exhaust being cut off by the piston passing over them. Small valves, as shown in Fig. 15, Plate VI., are provided to admit the steam for the next stroke until the piston has again uncovered the main port. In another arrangement of the " Fielding " duplex the slide valve is of the ordinary D type, and receives a longitudinal and transverse motion by levers from the piston rod. This valve must necessarily have a large surface area it cover- ing five ports therefore the amount of power expended in effecting the two motions required is very great indeed. Care should be taken to see that the valve spindle is at least 22 DIKECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE the same diameter as the piston rod, and made of cast steel, for each cylinder has respectively to operate its own and the other valve, whereas with Lee's gear each cylinder has but one valve to move. B. STEAM-MOVED VALVES. a. Actuated on the positive principle. 1st. Those which have two valves, of which the supplementary valve moves first and then the main valve. Universal Short StroJce. Fig. 16, Plate VII., is a sectional elevation ; Fig. 17 a plan ; Fig. 18, section through the shooting or valve-moving ports ; Fig. 19, section through centre of cylinder. It will be seen that the steam cylinder is a plain barrel, with a steam branch on one side and an exhaust branch on the other. The piston, which performs the function of a valve in opening and closing the ports and steam passages, is as much longer than the stroke as is required to cover the steam ports at each end and centre of the cylinder alter- nately, when working. Inside this piston is a smaller piston- or steam-moved valve, which is actuated by the steam. A represents the steam cylinder, provided with covers at each end ; B, the piston ; C, the piston- or steam- moved valve ; D, the steam branch ; E, the exhaust branch ; F F, rods connecting the piston covers G G ; H, ordinary packing rings surrounding the ends of the piston ; I is a guide pin, working in a corresponding groove, to prevent the piston from rotating in its reciprocating movements ; J is a pin, working in a groove, to prevent the steam-moved valve from turning round ; K is the piston rod connecting the steam piston with the pump piston. The action of the steam in the cylinder, and the working AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 23 of the piston is as follows : Steam enters at the inlet pipe D, Figs. 17 and 19, and has constant access to the interior of the piston through the aperture L, and elongated slot M, in the side of the piston ; it also enters the interior of the steam-moved valve through the rectangular openings marked N. which are in constant communication with the inlet pipe. This aperture is made above the centre of the steam-moved valve, in order that the steam may exert a pressure down- wards, greater than in any other direction, and thereby cause the bottom surface of the piston valve or steam-moved valve to work steam tight, more particularly on the face where all the ports are. The steam passes down the port 0, and thereby has access to one end of the piston, causing it to make a stroke. Near the termination of the stroke the piston causes the elongated slot P, in its side, to pass over the opening Q, in the side of the cylinder, which com- municates by a passage to the opening E, which is made sufficiently long to enable the orifice of the passage leading to the back of the steam-moved valve to be in constant com- munication with the orifice Q, as it passes along over it during the completion of the stroke of the piston, over which passes simultaneously with the latter an orifice and passage S, in the piston, leading direct to the inner chamber wherein the piston valve works. The steam consequently obtains access to one end of the piston valve, and forces it to the opposite end of its traverse, the steam on the opposite side having at the same time free access to the exhaust branch E, through the port T in the piston, similar to the port S before mentioned, and which passes over a correspond- ing aperture U, in the centre of the length of the cylinder. The piston valve thereby, on the principle of the D slide, changes the direction of the steam, at the same time opening the exhaust, causing the piston to make a return stroke, the steam escaping down through the aperture, and out through 24 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE the exhaust branch E. A certain amount of lead is given to allow the steam to exhaust before the entrance of steam on the other side, which is accomplished by permitting the passage U to communicate with each exhaust passage leading to the back of the piston valve a little before the slot P covers the aperture Q, which allows steam to enter the opposite end. By this arrangement an alternate movement is given to the piston valve, and thus causes the piston to reciprocate to and fro. HARLOW'S VALVE GEAR.* This gear is represented in Figs. 20, 21, Plate VIII. It consists of three parts, viz. the auxiliary valve P, attached to the main piston rod, and moving with it, the auxiliary piston F, and the main valve V moved by the auxiliary piston. Its operation may be described as follows: as represented the main piston has reached the end of its upward stroke, and the auxiliary valve P, has opened the ports B and C, exhausting the steam from the end of the auxiliary piston. Steam enters the other end through the port D, and moves the main valve to the other side. When the main valve is open for the return or downward stroke the ports B and D are covered by the auxiliary piston, the valve remaining in its position. When the main piston reaches the lower end of the cylinder the end of the auxiliary valve P has passed below the ports A and C, and the auxiliary piston is moved at the other end of the stroke, as previously described, by steam entering through D'. The auxiliary piston is steam-cushioned to avoid striking the heads, and this also accomplishes another purpose, that is, if the auxiliary piston is moved too far, so as to partially * 'American Machinist,' October 11, 1884, p. A. AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 25 cover the main steam port, the cushion pressure retains it so as to leave the ports fully open. The main steam ports, where they enter the cylinder, are divided, so that when the main piston nears the end of its stroke the supply of steam is diminished. Similarly, the full supply of steam is not admitted until after the piston has travelled a short distance on its return stroke. This provides for a slow motion at the beginning and end of the stroke, avoids striking the heads with the piston, and gives the pump valves time to seat quietly and without shock.

Assuming the piston to have just completed its stroke, say from right to left, having passed over hole e, steam is admitted through holes e, /, y, to left of small plunger Z, forcing it over to the right, and putting holes p, n, r, in communication with live steam in steam chest Y ; the large plunger m is forced over to the opposite end of steam chest, carrying with it the slide valve K, thereby admitting steam through port C to back of piston X, and reversing motion of same. A similar action takes place at the opposite end of 26 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE stroke, The exhaust steam from small plunger I passes through holes p, n, and p, w, o, through h, and away to main exhaust. The cushioning of the plunger valves is effectually performed by means of holes g and slot x t through which steam direct from steam chest flows upon the ends of plunger towards the completion of their stroke, preventing their striking against the cover 1, and cap 2. The piston X is cushioned by means of hole w. The steam chest being placed on the side of the cylinder, and the bottom of the steam ports on a level with bottom of same, the condensed steam is carried away in the exhaust at every stroke, thereby doing away with drain cocks. 2nd. Those ivhich have two valves, of which the main valve moves first, and then the supplementary. PARKER AND WESTON'S VALVE GEAR. Fig. 29, Plate XL, is a sectional elevation of the steam cylinder, valve chest, and main valve ; Fig. 30 is a sectional plan of the valve chest and auxiliary cylinder ; Fig. 31 is a section across the cylinder, valve chest, and valves ; Fig. 32 is an inverted plan of the face of the valve chest. It will be seen, on reference to Fig. 29, that the steam cylinder piston is of the ordinary kind. The action of the steam valves is as follows : We will suppose that the engine has been started, and the piston to be travelling in the direction shown by the arrow. The main valve is at the right-hand end of the steam chest, and steam is entering the left-hand end of the cylinder by the port A. The auxiliary valve is also at the right-hand end of the steam chest. This state of things continues until the main piston has passed the hole B' in the steam cylinder, when the steam rushes up the hole B', which communicates with the circular groove L', Fig. 30, turned in the auxiliary AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 27 valve, passes through the cross passage F', and, getting between the main valve and the steam chest cover, drives the valve over to the left, and allows the steam in the chest to find its way in to the right-hand end of the main cylinder, and to exhaust from the opposite end. The piston being instantly stopped in its motion, and proceeding to make its stroke in the opposite direction. The instant the port A' is charged with steam from the chest by the movement of the main valve, a small hole G' conducts steam from the port E' to the end of the auxiliary valve, which is by this means shot over to the opposite end of the valve chest, and placed in a position for admitting and exhausting steam to and from the main slide valve. It will, therefore, be seen that the main valve makes its stroke first, and on steam being admitted to the cylinder, the auxiliary valve then moves over. The steam used in moving the valve is exhausted through the passage E', thence into the groove L' in the auxiliary valve, then by a number of small holes into a passage formed in the auxiliary valve, and finally escapes into the chamber M, and hence by the hole C into the main exhaust pipe. When the main valve has made about half its stroke it closes the outlet for the exhaust C, and the remaining steam is confined between the end of the valve and the steam chest cover, and thus effectually prevents the valve from striking the ends. N is the starting handle ; O the starting spindle ; and P the tongue that moves the valve at starting. 3rd. Those which have only one valve. COLEBEOOK'S VALVE GEAB. Fig. 33, Plate XII., is a sectional elevation through the valve chest, part of valve and cylinder ; Fig. 34 is a sectional elevation showing the valve in the mid-position ; Fig. 35 is 28 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE a sectional elevation showing the valve in its last position ; and Fig. 36 a cross section through the valve chest. K is the steam inlet to the valve chest ; in each end of which is a fixed piston, fitted with packing rings, which forms part of the steam chest covers, the diameter being about two-thirds of the area of the valve chest. Through the centre of each of these pistons is a small spindle which acts as a starting handle. Above the valve chamber, near each end, is an exhaust port which terminates in a main exhaust branch. The slide valve is formed of two pistons connected by a distance piece ; each end of these pistons is made hollow to work over the fixed pistons at each end of the valve chamber. The difference in the diameter of the fixed pistons and the valve chest is sufficiently great to permit of the annular projection of the piston heads being cast hollow. At the bottom part of each projection is an aperture which communicates between the auxiliary passages and the solid end of the valve. The main piston A is of the ordinary steam engine type. The main cylinder is furnished with two main steam ports F and G, and two auxiliary ports, or valve-moving ports, B in Fig. 33, and port L is shown in Fig. 35 ; the object of these ports being to conduct a portion of the steam from the steam cylinder to the valve chambers E and M, to start the steam valve the motion being continued and completed by the exhaust steam from the main cylinder, through the annular ends of the steam valve, on its way to the exhaust pipe. The positive system is the character of the valve motion in this gear, in which the action of the high-pressure steam is quickly followed and aided by the creation of an exhaust at the other end of the valve chamber. Eeferring to Fig. 33, the piston A has just completed its travel in the direction of the arrow and uncovered the port B. This port, as shown by the dotted passages, communicates with C, which was in AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 29 juxtaposition with the port D, when the valve was over at the other extremity of its stroke. The live steam passes up through the ports B, C, and D, into the interior chamber E of the valve. The pressure of the steam thus introduced between the valve and the fixed cover moves over the valve to some extent, and by this preliminary motion brings the port of the chamber at the other end of the valve in juxtaposition with a port corre- sponding to B, which has by this time become an exhaust port. This position is illustrated in Fig. 34, Plate XI. The onward travel of the valve is thus accelerated and determined, whilst by the same motion the port C is now closed against the disturbing effect of the exhaust im- mediately set up on the former steam side of the piston A. The corresponding ports to D aud are now in juxtaposi- tion at the other end of the valve chamber, ready for a repe- tition of the reversing action when the piston A shall have arrived at the other end of the cylinder. The continued action of the valve is thus maintained by a suitable juxtaposition of ports, without shock or jar. The valve itself is built after the principle of an ordinary D valve sliding over the usual steam ports, one at either end of the cylinder, but with a steam passage in the centre and exhaust exits at each end. As the valve stands in Fig. 34 the port F to the cylinder has become the exhaust, and G the steam port to reverse the action of the piston. The exhaust steam issuing through F passes the space H, and thus out into the exhaust branch and pipe at the top of the valve chest. From this description it will be seen that this gear is extremely simple, there being only one moving part ; two holes in the valve, which are in the smallest sizes, J of an inch by f of an inch, and are therefore not liable to get choked, which is a great advantage, especially when worked by compressed air, or when bad lubricating oil is used. 30 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE CARRICKBURN VALVE GEAR.* This gear is illustrated in Figs. 37 and 38, Plate XIII. It consists of a steam cylinder A ; piston B ; piston rod C ; slide valve D ; auxiliary pistons E and F ; steam and exhaust ports G, H, J, K ; valve-moving ports L and M ; N and O are ports between exhaust ports H and J and pistons E andF. Supposing the pistons and valve are in the position illus- trated, the steam is passing through the port K, and the piston is moving to the right, and the exhaust port H is open to the exhaust branch P. As soon as the piston B passes or covers the ports H and T, the steam is confined, and prevents the piston B striking the cylinder cover. The distance between the port M and the cylinder cover is greater than the depth of the piston, and the steam, therefore, enters the port M, as soon as the piston uncovers it ; while the piston is thus compressing the confined exhaust steam, the live steam passes through the port M, and acts upon the piston F, moving it and the slide valve D. The port K is thus closed, and the port G opened for admitting live steam to the cylinder. The exhaust on the other side of the piston is also opened by J to P, and the piston accordingly com- mences to move the other way. The exhaust of the steam decreases the pressure in the port M, and the steam in the valve chest, therefore, acting upon the rod of the valve piston F, drives the latter back before the main piston B uncovers port H, and then the steam coming through H and O holds F in place. The steam coming through M causes the pressure to balance at opposite side of the piston F, and hence the latter remains in its normal position. The whole action is, of course, repeated at the other end of the stroke. If from any obstruction the valve should be moved just * ' Pump Catechism,' by R. Grimsbaw. AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 31 sufficiently to exactly cover both steam ports G and K, ports Q and E, Fig. 38, are provided, passing down into the steam cylinder, and holes are drilled through the valve so that when the latter is in the position mentioned, these holes correspond with the ports Q and K, and let steam into the cylinder. The steam will then act through the port M or L, upon whichever valve-moving piston is to be moved further to complete the movement of the valve. The openings in the valve naturally correspond with the ports Q and R only at the middle of the valve travel, and the ports are closed at all other times. It may be added that when the valve D is on its centre, and the ports Q and R are open into the steam cylinder, if the steam piston B is covering one of the ports M or L, and thereby obstructing the opera- tion of the valve motion, the steam admitted by Q and K will act upon the steam piston, moving it until port L or M, that had been covered, is uncovered and the steam, acting through this port upon the valve-moving piston, will remove the valve from its central position. Beneath the cylinder is a small valve-chamber V, which is tubular, and provided with caps at the ends and valve with triangular guide-stems in the smaller inner portion of the tubular chamber Y. The combined length of the two valve- stems is greater than the distance between the seats for the valves, and there are ports T and U from the ends of the chamber V to the steam cylinder, and a lateral dis- charge pipe between the valve seats, which may be provided with a cock, When the steam acts on one side of the piston B, the pressure closes the valve upon the other side, so that water of condensation can run off at the exhaust side from the cylinder. These operations are automatic, the valves closing and opening in opposite directions at each admission of steam to the cylinder. Two small blocks of wood or other similar material, one of them being marked W, are 32 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE arranged in the valve D to act as buffer for the rods of the independent pistons E and F. COLBURN'S VALVE GEAK.* Fig. 39, Plate XIII., is a sectional elevation of a pump fitted with this type of valve motion, which is actuated by steam, without the intervention of any external gear. A is the steam cylinder, and B the water cylinder, both of which are cast together ; C is the steam piston, and D water piston, working in unison and cast together, and should be of such length as to obviate any connection taking place between the steam and water cylinders. This distance is regulated by the depth of the pistons. As for example, with a 12-inch stroke, the total length over the two pistons must be at least 15 inches, but 20 inches is better. The proportion between the areas of the two pistons depends, of course, upon the steam pressure in the cylinder, and the height to which the water from the pump cylinder has to be forced. The steam cylinder A is provided with a cover E, F is the steam inlet, G and H is the steam space in the main valve, which latter is of the piston-valve type, and is furnished with four pistons J, K, L, M. The annular space between K and L forms the communication between the steam inlet F and the steam port N, which opens into the steam cylinder A. It will be seen from the position of the piston and the valve in Fig. 39 that steam is admitted on the left side of the steam piston C and moves it to the right. When the piston has arrived nearly at the end of its stroke, the port is opened, through which the steam from the cylinder A is allowed ingress into the annular space round the pistons L and M. It will be noticed that the diameter of M is in excess of L, therefore the steam having this extra area for action, forces over the * * Die Pumpen,' by Frederich Koning. AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 33 piston valve to the right, closing the steam port N, by the piston K, cutting off steam. This terminates its primary motion. Before the pistons can again obtain their original position the steam must be released from the cylinder A, which is done in the following manner : The valve having been moved over to its extreme position towards the right, the length of its travel being regulated by the steam escaping at the point V, uncovers the eduction port B (shown in dotted lines), which is in communication with the condenser. This condenser should have at least the same capacity as the steam cylinder A. S is a clack valve at the bottom of the pipe, T is another for the admission of the injection water. As soon as this condition of tilings has taken place between the steam space A and the condenser pipe Q, a vacuum is produced, and the atmospheric pressure begins to act upon the piston M, which, being in equilibrium, is shot over to the left again, opening port Gr for admission of steam. When, as in this case, the steam piston is larger than the pump piston, the action is assisted by air being admitted through the hole U between the two pistons. It will be seen from this that the steam only acts in the forcing stroke of the pump, and that the return or suction stroke is performed by the vacuum. If the steam pump is near a condenser, the steam can be let direct into it ; but if this is not the case, the special condensing apparatus must be applied. If a more even flow of delivery is desired, two of these pumps should be worked together side by side or end to end. 34 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE (b) Actuated on the negative principle, that is, those in which the main valve is moved over by means of a negative exhaust action. CAMERON'S VALVE GEAR. Fig. 40, Plate XIV., is a sectional elevation of the steam cylinder, slide valve, valve-moving plungers, valve chest and tappets. A is the steam cylinder ; B, the main steam piston ; C, slide valve ; D and E, valve-moving plungers ; F, valve chest ; G and H, tappets ; J, piston rod , K and L, valve- moving ports. The steam cylinder A is made with a double set of steam passages, one pair M N of these passages leading from the slide valve face to the ends of the cylinder in the usual way, and the other ports P extending from near the end of the steam chest F to the inner ends of small cylindrical chambers Q B formed on each cylinder cover. Each of these chambers is fitted with a piston valve, or tappet, G H, which closes an opening in the cylinder cover, these valves being, except when moved by the piston, kept against their seats by the pressure of steam on their back, the outer ends of the valve chambers being placed in free communication with the steam chest F by small passages or holes drilled in the valve-moving plungers D and E. The main slide valve covers the exhaust port U and one pair of steam ports, and is made of the section shown in Fig. 40, so that when it is moved to the right steam is admitted into the right-hand port, and vice versa. In Fig. 40, Plate XIV., the valve is shown in the position it occupies when steam is being admitted into the left-hand port, the other being placed in communication with the exhaust. On the back of the valve are a pair of lugs which fit between 1 two AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 35 collars formed on a spindle which connects, and is cast in one piece with, a pair of plungers D and E, which work in the cylindrical portions forming the ends of the valve chest F, and into which the second pair of steam ports K and L open. The plungers do not fit their cylinder tightly, but are made so that they allow a small amount of leakage to take place past them, the steam thus passing being shut in when either plunger travels beyond the port, and thus forming a cushion to check the motion of the valve. In case the engine should stop in such a position that both steam ports are closed by the valve, a rocking shaft, working by an external handle, is provided, this shaft carrying a finger or tongue V, Fig. 40, by which the valve can be shifted. When the pump is at work this rocking shaft remains stationary, as the valve does not move far enough to touch the finger. The action of the gear is as follows : Supposing all the parts to be in the position shown in Fig. 40, the piston B will, when steam is turned on, move from left to right. On arriving at the end of the stroke it will strike against the spindle of the tappet G, on the right-hand cylinder cover, and force it off its seat, thus placing the second right-hand passage in communication with the right-hand end of the cylinder, and, consequently, owing to the position of the main valve C, in communication with the exhaust. This being the case, the pressure is removed from the back of the right-hand plunger D, connected with the main valve, and the pressure of the steam on the inner side of the plunger then forces the latter to the right, the slide valve being of course carried with it. This movement admits steam to the right-hand end of the cylinder, and places the left-hand end in communication with the exhaust, and the piston then performs its stroke from right to left, when the operations are repeated at the other end of the cylinder. D 2 SG DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE FLOYD'S VALVE GEAR. This gear, as will be seen from Fig. 41, Plate XIV., is a simplification of the Cameron valve gear. The action of it is as follows: In the position shown in the illustration the steam is passing from the steam chest A, through the passage or steam port B, to the left-hand side of the steam piston 0, forcing it in the direction of the arrow, and the steam is exhausting from the other side of the piston, through the steam port C, to the exhaust pipe D. On the piston reaching the end of its stroke, its bevelled edge rises the tappet or reversing valve E, and allows the steam from the small cylinder F to pass through the passage G, into the steam port C, and exhaust pipe D ; the steam in the opposite small cylinder N then forces the pistons H and L which are cast in one piece in the direction of the arrow, and with them the slide valve J, which then admits steam to the right-hand end of the cylinder, and the piston makes its return stroke. A similar action takes place when the piston lifts the tappet K. The small cylinders F and N, receive their stea'm through little holes drilled through their pistons. EACKHAM'S VALVE GEAR.* This gear is illustrated in Figs. 42 and 43, Plate XV. It consists of a steam cylinder A ; main piston B ; valve chest C ; slide valves D D ; valve-moving plungers or pistons E and F ; steam ports G and H ; exhaust ports J and K ; tappets L and M ; reversing valves N and ; starting tongue P. Eeferring to the illustration it will be seen that the valves of the steam cylinder are controlled by subsidiary or * 'Engineering.' AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 37 reversing valves N and 0, operated by tappets L and M. These tappets project through the two cylinder covers, and are struck at each end of the stroke by the piston B. They are connected to a pair of piston valves E and F, which work in communication with the small cylinders at each end of the main steam chest C. Steam is always passing into the cylinders through leaklioles in the pistons E and F, and thus there is a constant tendency towards equilibrium. When one tappet is struck it connects the corresponding cylinder to the exhaust, and thus destroys tho equilibrium ; the steam in the opposite cylinder then expands and forces over the main valve ready for the next stroke, the motion taking place slowly and without concussion. A lever and tongue P is provided to start the pump in case it should be stopped at mid-stroke of the valve. C. PARTIALLY MECHANICALLY- AND PARTIALLY STEAIM- MOVED VALVES. BLAKE'S VALVE GEAR. Fig. 44, Plate XVI., shows a longitudinal section of the cylinder, valve chest, and valves ; Fig. 45, combined mov- able seat and auxiliary valve ; Fig. 46, plan of steam chest. A is the steam cylinder ; B the main piston ; C the valve chest ; D slide valve ; E and F valve-moving plungers ; G movable seat ; H tappets (in this case one tappet is in the steam cylinder and one in the pump, sometimes one is pro- vided at each end of the cylinder) ; J the tappet lever ; and K the movable seat spindle. The tappet rod H is moved in one direction on being struck by the steam piston B just before reaching the end of the stroke, and the reverse when struck by the water piston. The tappet rod H is connected by a vibrating lever J and spindle K to the movable seat G, which also acts as the 38 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE auxiliary valve. The main valve D is of the ordinary D- valve type sliding upon the movable seat, and held between two shoulders of supplementary pistons or plungers E and F. The ends of the supplementary pistons or plungers are fitted in their respective cylinders, which are cast in one piece with the main valve chest ; the outer ends of the cylinders being connected with openings under the auxiliary valves by little ports cast in the chest. These small ports lead from the auxiliary valve seat towards each end of the supplementary cylinders, and are divided so as to enter at two different points, one through -the head, and the other some distance from it, this last being covered by a piece of sheet brass acting as a valve, which allows steam to enter the cylinder but opposes its exit. The main slide valve D has three ports of equal area, which correspond in every position with the ports of the main cylinder. The action of the gear is as follows : Suppose the piston B to be moving to the right, the movable seat and auxiliary valve G will then be at the extreme left, with the exhaust port L open on the right-hand, and steam admitted on the left-hand through the port M ; directly the piston B ap- proaches the end of its stroke it moves the tappet rod H, which communicates motion, through the lever J and the rod K, to the movable seat and auxiliary valve G. By this operation steam is at once given to the right-hand side of the piston through the port N, which it slightly opens in sufficient quantity to cushion the piston B, and start it on its return stroke ; at the same time steam passes through the auxiliary port 0, which communicates with the right-hand plunger F, at once opening the main slide valve D and giving the piston full steam ; the steam at the back of plunger E is exhausted through P and Q to the main exhaust L. The valves are operated in the same way at the other end of AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 39 the stroke, only in the opposite direction, thus giving con- tinuous action to the steam piston and to the pump. The plungers E and F are prevented from striking the covers by the arrangement of ports and valves at either end, which checks them with the utmost certainty. In working, if the main piston should attain a velocity in excess of the valve-moving plungers, which actuate the main valve, the piston strikes the tappet. By this means a lead is given to the main valve, steam being thereby admitted in front of the piston, forming a cushion, and giving steam to start the piston on its return stroke. DELAMETER VALVE GEAR. This is illustrated in Figs. 47, 48, 49, and 50, Plate XVII. It consists of a steam cylinder A, steam piston B of the usual depth for ordinary steam engines, slide valve C ; D and E are the valve-moving plungers, F the auxiliary valve, G the auxiliary valve spindle, H a port leading from the main valve chest to the auxiliary valve chest, J the starting tongue, K and L steam ports, N exhaust port, M exhaust branch. Fig. 47 is a longitudinal section through cylinder and valve chest, showing the main piston in mid-position ; Fig. 48, a section on line a ; Fig. 49, a section on line b ; Fig. 50, section on line c. The illustration shows the main slide valve C, with a piston D and E on each end of it. These pistons are packed with spring rings. The steam and exhaust are admitted to the proper end of these pistons or plungers by a small auxiliary valve F. This latter is cylindrical, and is oscillated from one side to the other by a cam on the valve spindle G. This cam is worked by an arm from the piston rod, and as the piston reaches one end, it turns the auxiliary 40 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE valve into a position which admits live steam from the boiler to one or the other of the main valve plungers, and exhausts the steam from the other. This allows the steam to drive the main valve over to its opposite position, and reverses the motion of the main piston B. THE " SELDON " VALVE GEAR.* This gear is illustrated in Fig. 51, Plate XVIII. It will be seen that, as in other pumps of the class, the main cylinder is surmounted by the valve chamber. The bottom of the valve chamber contains a main D -slide valve and two starting slide valves D D, one on each side of the main valve, and all working upon the same face. Each starting valve is attached to a spindle working through a stuffing box at each end of the chamber. Each spindle is connected to a lever C, which is actuated by a tappet B in the end of the main cylinder. The top part of the valve chamber contains an annular auxiliary or shooting valve F, with a piston head at each end, the main slide valve being attached midway between the piston head. The main cylinder contains the usual pair of steam ports, and the exhaust branch, covered by the main slide valve in the centre of its face. At each end of the face is a small steam port E (communicatiDg with the ends of the shooting valves), and an exhaust branch H', discharging into the main exhaust ; these are covered by the starting slide valves. The tappets before referred to, receive their motion from the main piston, which is of the ordinary type. We will suppose the latter to be travelling towards the right-hand end of the cylinder ; near the end of its stroke it strikes a tappet B, in the end of the cylinder, which gives motion through a double-ended lever C * ' Mine Drainage,' by Stephen Michell. AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 41 (anchored to a fulcrum on the cylinder end), to the starting slide valves D D, causing them to make a stroke to the left, thereby uncovering the auxiliary steam port E, at the right- hand end of ihe cylinder, and admitting steam behind the right-hand end of the shooting valve F (the left-hand end being simultaneously open to the exhaust II H'), driving it and the main slide valve G to the left. The steam is thus diverted from the left-hand end of the main cylinder to the right-hand end through the port I ; the used steam at the opposite end at the same time escaping to the exhaust through the port A, K. If it happen that the auxiliary piston is retarded in its action, the starting valve compensates for the irregularity by tapping the main valve and giving the required cushion to the piston.

The main valve is a plain slide valve of the D type, cast with a groove through its face, and is moved by independent plungers working in small cylinders above the main cylinder. The auxiliary valve, Fig. 55, which controls the steam to the valve piston, is made with two flat faces far enough apart to allow the main valve to work between them. These faces are connected together by a bar which fits into the groove in the face of the main valve, so that both valves are out in sight when the steam chest is removed, and both work in the same valve-face. The auxiliary valve is moved by a tappet- 42 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE arm or crosshead on the main piston rod, to prevent the pump having a dead centre. The action of the valve-gear is as follows: In the position shown in Fig, 52, Plate XIX., the main-piston B has just finished its stroke to the left, the tappet has moved the auxiliary valve in position for admitting steam to the face of the valve-moving plunger D, and has moved the plungers D and E, and main slide valve C, to the extreme travel to the right, and admitting the steam through the port H, to the left-hand side of the main piston B. When the piston arrives at the right-hand end of the cylinder A, the other tappet will move the auxiliary valve to the right, open the small ports to the valve plunger E, and shoot the plungers D and E, and main slide valve C to the extreme left. The steam and exhaust ports for the valve-moving plungers are shown in Fig. 52, and also in the sectional plan Fig. 53. WORTHINGTON'S SIMPLEX VALVE GEAR.* Its chief peculiarity is that the stroke is regulated without the use of a crank, so that the motion of the plunger is nearly uniform for the whole length of the stroke. Fig. 56, Plate XX., is a longitudinal section. A is the steam piston. The slide valve I is moved by the tappet K, fixed on the piston-rod, and striking either of the nuts L or M. Steam is admitted under the slide, as shown, since the motion of the slide in one direction has to admit steam for the piston moving in the opposite direction. A steam buffer is provided for the slide, to remove the concussion ; N is a piston attached to the valve spindle, working in a cylinder, which has a small groove cut in the bottom of it. The cylinder is fitted with steam from the valve chest * ' Trans. Mech. Engineers,' July, 1852, AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 43 through a small hole in the end, and then is compressed by the piston N, at each stroke of the tappet K, thus form- ing a buffer or spring of very perfect elasticity ; and the compressed steam escapes immediately afterwards to the other side of the piston N, through the groove in the bottom side of the cylinder, thus preventing any recoil of the valve. 44 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE RULES AND FORMULAS. Duty. The term duty, applied to a pumping engine or steam pump, represents the number of pounds of water raised one foot high with one hundredweight (112 pounds) of coal (formerly one bushel or 94 pounds of coal). Rule. Multiply the number of pounds of coal used for each indicated horse-power per hour by 1,980,000, which is pounds lifted 1 foot high per hour, by 1 horseTpower, and divide by 112 pounds; the product multiplied by the number of indicated horse-powers of the engine gives the duty. Example. A steam pump or pumping engine of 30 indicated horse-power, using 5 pounds of coal per horse- power per hour, ^g^ = 88,214-28, 88,214-28 x 30 = 2,646,428 foot pounds duty for each cwt. of coal consumed. To find the proportion between the steam and pump cylinder : Rule. Multiply the given area of the pump cylinder by the resistance on the pump in pounds per square inch, and divide the product by the available pressure of steam in pounds per square inch ; the product equals the area of cylinder in square inches to overcome the load ; to this must be added an extra area to overcome the friction, which in ordinary steam pumps is usually reckoned 25 per cent., or one-fourth. AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 45 Example. Pump cylinder 4 inches diameter, pressure against the pump piston 50 Ib. per square inch, steam pressure 40 Ib, per square inch, Four inches diameter equals 12*56 square inches. 12-56 x 50 40 = 15 '7 inches area, 15-7 x 25 per cent. = 15-7 x 3-925 = 19-625 = 5 inches diameter of steam cylinder. To find the steam pressure required, when the diameter of cylinder, diameter of pump barrel, and the resistance against the pump in pounds per square inch are given : Rule. Multiply the area of the pump piston or plunger in square inches by the resistance on the pump^n pounds per square inch, and divide the product by the are&'of steam cylinder ; the product equals the number of pounds of steam pressure per square inch necessary to overcome the load ; to this must be added 25 per cent, to overcome the friction. Example. 4 inches diameter of pump piston, pressure against the pump 50 Ibs. per square inch, 5 inches diameter of steam cylinder. 4 inches diameter equals 12*56 inches area. 5 inches diameter equals 19*625 inches area, 12-56 X 50 19 -625 32 4- 25 per cent. = 32 -f 8 = 40 lb, pressure per square inch required. To find the pressure against which a pump can deliver water, when the diameter of the steam cylinder, the steam pressure, and diameter of pump barrel are given : Rule. Multiply the area of the steam cylinder by the pressure of the steam in pounds per square inch, and divide 46 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE the product by the area of the pump piston ; the product, minus 25 per cent., will be the pressure per square inch against which the pump will force the water. Example. Steam cylinder 5 inches diameter, steam pressure 40 Ib. per square inch, pump piston 4 inches diameter : 19-625 X 40 Tnrz =62-o Ib. pressure per square inch. \i ' oo 62-5 - 25 per cent. = 62-5 - 15-625 = 46-875 Ib. per square inch. To find diameter of pump piston, when diameter of steam cylinder, steam pressure in pounds per square inch, and resistance against the pump piston in pounds per square inch are given : Eule. Multiply the area of the steam cylinder by the steam pressure in pounds per square inch, and divide the product by the resistance on the pump in pounds per square inch, minus 25 per cent, to overcome the friction. Example. 5 inches diameter of steam cylinder, 40 Ib. steam pressure per square inch, pressure against the pump 50 Ib. per square inch, 19-625 X 40 50 = 15-7 inches area. 15-7 25 per cent. = 15 " 7 3 925 = 11 - 775 inches area, say 4 inches diameter of pump. To find the diameter of low-pressure cylinder required for a compound pumping engine : Rule. Divide the total pressure on the pump piston by the average pressure of steam available, the quotient will be the area of the low-pressure cylinder. AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 47 Example. 10 inches diameter of pump piston, 500 Ib. pressure per square inch. Total pressure = 78*54 inches area of pump x 500 = 39270 -f- 50 per cent, for friction = 58905 Ib. pressure. Steam pressure 100 Ib. per square inch, expansion 2J to 1 = 76-64 Ib. average pressure of steam. _ . = 768 inches area, say 32 inches diameter of low- pressure cylinder. (For average pressure of steam, see Table No. III., page 64.) To find the diameter of high-pressure cylinder required for a compound pumping engine: Rule. Divide the area of the low-pressure cylinder by the number of expansions, and the quotient equals the area of the high-pressure cylinder. Example. 32 inches diameter of low-pressure cylinder, 2-J- expansions. 804 24 inches area of low-pressure cylinder 2*5 expansion 321-68 inches, say 20 inches diameter of high-pressure cylinder. The friction allowed for in the above rules is only the actual friction in the steam pump itself. To the total load against the pump should be added the power required to overcome the friction of the water in the suction and delivery pipes, which in many cases, especially in the delivery pipe, is very great. The rule for calculating the friction in pipes is given, but to avoid the calculation, the Table IL, giving the head of water in feet or part of a foot, to overcome the friction of the water in pipes 100 feet long, for a given quantity in English gallons per minute. If the quantity is 48 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE required in American gallons, it is easily converted by multi- plying the English gallons by 12 and dividing the product by 10, the result being number of American gallons. To find the friction of water in pipes : Rule. Multiply the quantity of water passing through the pipe in gallons per minute by itself and then by the length of the pipe in yards, divide the product by 3 times the diameter of the pipe in inches raised to the 5th power. The result equals the head of the water in feet to overcome the friction in the pipe. Example. 4 inches diameter of pipe, 200 gallons per minute, 300 yards length of pipe. 200 2 x 300 200 x 200 x 300 (3 X 4) 5 = 12 x 12 x 12 x 12 X 12 nearly 48J feet head required to overcome the friction. SIZE or STEAM PORTS. The steam ports are made of different proportions by different makers, but a good proportion is -^th f r small sizes, ^Lth for medium sizes, and ^th for large sizes. For large pumping engines the following rule has been found to give good results : Rule. Multiply the area of the steam cylinder in inches by the piston speed in feet per minute, and divide the product by 6000. Example. 24 inches diameter of steam cylinder, 120 feet piston speed. 24 inches diameter equals 452 38 inches area. 452-38 x 120 - = 9-04, say 9mches area of steam ports. c\ AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 49 DEPTH OF STEAM PISTONS. The depth of small steam pistons equals one-half of the diameter of the steam cylinder; for larger cylinders it is made one-fourth the diameter. A 4-inch cylinder piston is generally made 2 inches deep, and an 18-inch piston 4^ inches deep. AREA OF THE PISTON ROD. The area of the piston rod for small cylinders is made T Vth of the area of the cylinder ; for larger cylinders ^Vth ; the average of various makers being ^ik. Relative areas of the main piston valve or valve-moving plungers and of the cylinder vary greatly with the design. In some valve gears the proportions vary from ^th to ^th. Relative areas of main piston valve and subsidiary valve are usually 4J to 1. In valve gears having only one main piston valve, the relative areas of cylinder and main valve are 3J to 1. PISTON SPEEDS. The speed of pump pistons varies according to circum- stances and the class of liquid pumped. Ordinary direct-acting steam pumps run at from 100 to 120 feet per minute. The best speed for large pumping engines is obtained by multiplying the square root of the length of stroke of the piston by 80. KATIO OF THE AREA OF SUBSIDIARY CYLINDER AND AREA OF SLIDE VALVE. For Single Cylinder Engines. Rule. Divide the area of slide valve by 3 and the quotient equals area of subsidiary cylinder. 50 DIRECT-ACTING PUMPING ENGINE Example. A slide valve 4J inches long by 8 inches wide. 4-5 x 8 = 36 inches area of valve. nr* =12 inches area of subsidiary or valve-moving cylinder, or, say, 4 inches diameter. * FOR COMPOUND ENGINES. Rule. Divide the areas of the two slide valves, added together, by 5 ; the quotient equals the area of the subsidiary piston. Example. High pressure slide valve 41 inches long by 8 inches wide ; low pressure slide valve 41 inches long by 11 inches wide. 4-5 x 8 = 36 inches. 4-5 x 11 = 49-5 inches. 36 + 49 *5 = 85 5 inches area of the two slide valves. OK.K =17'1 inches area of subsidiary cylinder, say o 5 inches diameter. The Cataract Governors are usually made the same diameter as the subsidiary cylinder. FEED PUMPS. 15 gallons of feed water is usually allowed for each nominal horse-power per hour. 2 to 21 gallons per hour for each indicated horse-power. The ratio of area of steam cylinder to area of pump barrel varies from 2 to 2^ to 1. SURFACE CONDENSERS. 21 square feet of cooling surface should be allowed for each indicated horse-power ; and 6 * 6 square feet for each nominal horse-power. AND STEAM PUMP CONSTRUCTION. 51 1*12 gallons of circulating water should be provided for each square foot of cooling or tube surface, or from 4 to 5 gallons of circulating water for each pound of steam to be condensed. Circulating tubes are made from \ inch to 1 inch outside diameter. Superficial area of external surface of tubes per foot length in square inches : External diameter of tube, area in square feet. i inch = 0-1309 | = 0-1636 -| = 0-1963 I = 0-2290 1 = 0-2618 Single-acting air pumps are usually made the same diame- ter as double-acting circulating pumps, the stroke being the same. The American practice is to make the steam cylinder for circulating pumps one-third the area of the water cylinder. INJECTION CONDENSER. Quantity of injection water required is 5 gallons per minute per nominal horse-power and 2J gallons per indi- cated horse-power. The size of injection pipes is usually ^th of a square inch for every 6 24 gallons of water condensed per hour. Some- times the injection pipe is made ^i^th of the area of the steam cylinder. Size of air pump : When the stroke of the pump is half of the engine stroke it is found by multiplying the diameter of the cylinder by 0-3. If the air pump has the same length of stroke as the steam piston, it is made T^ n ^ * ne area ^ the steam cylinder. E 2 TABLES. I. TOTAL PRESSURE ON CYLINDER PISTONS. II.

Demy 410, copiously illustrated with woodcuts and 96 plates, in one Volume, half-bound morocco, 2.1. 2s. ; or cheaper edition, cloth, 25^. This work is not, in any sense, an elementary treatise, or history of the steam engine, but is intended to describe examples of Fixed Steam Engines without entering into the wide domain of locomotive or marine practice. To this end illustrations will be given of the most recent arrangements of Horizontal, Vertical, Beam, Pumping, Winding, Portable, Semi- portable, Corliss, Allen, Compound, and other similar Engines, by the most eminent Firms in Great Britain and America. The laws relating to the action and precautions to be observed in the construction of the various details, such as Cylinders, Pistons, Piston-rods, Connecting- rods, Cross-heads, Motion-blocks, Eccentrics, Simple, Expansion, Balanced, and Equilibrium Slide-valves, and Valve-gearing will be minutely dealt with. In this connection will be found articles upon the Velocity of Reciprocating Parts and the Mode of Applying the Indicator, Heat and Expansion of Steam Governors, and the like. It is the writer's desire to draw illustrations from every possible source, and give only those rules that present practice deems correct.
