Condensers, otvhich the following is especi- This invention. relates to surface conn densers and is intended to increase the eilicieney'r of such condensers by permitting the Withdrawal of the water of condensation from superimposed banks of tubes in order that the water which has-been condensed by an upper bank of tubes may not be permitted to drop down over the tubes of a lower bank and'thereby prevent the steam from coming into close sont lower bank.
A further object of this invention is to so dis cse and arran e the several parts of a sur ace condenser t at the maximum cooling effect is produced by the condensing water upon the steam, that the steam may have f free access to all tubes 'through which theV cooling` water circulates, and that ample steam space shall be provided in the vicinity of the steam inlet. l
ln the drawingsm'hich accompany this specification and form e art thereof and which illustrate an embodiment of this invention and on whichthe same reference von the line a-a of Fig. '2.
characters designate the same elements in each of the several'vieWs,-Figure 1 represents a verticallongitudinal section through a condenser embodying this invention taken Fig. l represents a vertical transverse section taken on the line -b of Fig. 1. Fig. 3 re resents a plan view of a section taken on t e lines c-c of Figs. l and 2.
The numeral 1 re resents the casing proper of the condenser w lich may be formed oi a casting or plate metal in any convenient or preferable manner, said casing being provided with a 'steam inlet 2 and the heads 3 and 4, within which heads are secured the condenser tubes 5, said tubes passing through each of said heads so its to all ord communication through the condenser i rom one endhto the other thereof. 1
The numeral 6 represents a casing which is .I'secured to the head 3, and the numeral 7 represents a somewhat similar casing which is secured to the head 4, these casings being specificaties of Lettere Patent.' application eieeneeemter 7, ieee. serial No. 346,691.

path for the cooling water; and each of these casings is provided with partitions designated generally by the reference character 8, by which' chambers are formed vbetween the providedto aiiord a continuous conduit or:
heads 3 and Ltot the condenser and the saidy casings. .One or more entrances for the cooling water may be provided in one of the oasings 6 or 7, or preferably, as shown by Fig. 3, two
inlets are rovided for the condensing water, indicated y the numerals 9 and 10. These inlets communicate with the chambers 11 and 12 respectively, from which chambers the water passes by the tubes of the vertical banks 13 and 14 to the chambers 15 and 16 respectively, whence the water passes by the' tubes of the vertical banks 18 and 17 to the chambers 19 and 20 respectively, from which chambers the -water passesby the tubes 'of the vertical banks 21 and 22 to a common' chamber 23, from whence it passes by .the tubes of the vertical banks 2 4 and 25 to the 1common chamber 26 provided with the outet 27. i
. The numeral 28 represents feet o r supporte which may be formed as an integral' partei. the casting or may preferable manner.
The condenser casing 1 is provided witli'an be secured thereto .in
outlet 29 for the water of condensation 4and jected'upwardly therein to provide forth@ separate withdrawal ofv air from the con* denser, which ipe may be placed in communication wit a separate dry air pump or may be connected. u i in any preferred Way so that the air will` be withdrawn therethrough. denser as shown, the tubes are separated into horizontal banks by partitions 31 which may' be formed as an integral part ofthe condenser casting or which may be platessecurcd either removably or not within thecondenser. the referred construction of condenser which isl s own by the drawings, these. plates enr tend from a central 'free space outwardly and downwardly toward the sides of the condenser casing and are provided adjacent said sides with apertures 32 'throuvh which the inthe ,construction of the concondensed water can fall and (Train away to (Water is passing through the condensing* in forni, beings,r also provided with the eper ture 32; but this partition is extend clear across the condenser, whereby the con- 'i denser is in effect diifided into two chambers. This partition 33 being upwardly inclined e Werd the center iroln each side ol' the eondenser easing, affords s pocket in 'which cir end other uncondenseble gases ineycelieet, end thepipe 30 is extended well up to this partition. Pipes 34 for the circulation ol' the condensing Water nifty be placed helen' this partition 33 end in proximity to the tir pipe 30 for the purpose oi' cooling the nir or other uncondenseble grises, thereby increusing the density and diminishing the volume ol' the iuids to be Withdrawn through pipe 3U.
In the preferred forni oll construction, :is shown by the drawings, the steen 'hnlssion pipe is arranged to distribute the str in unil iornily with respect to the length ol the condenser end some considerable spec leitbetween the banks of tubes et the top oi the condenser on the opposite sioes ol' the stezun admission inlet, which space. is gruduuliy con treeted toward thebottoin oi the fnnideneer, the effect of this arrangement being; that the steam While-having free :recess to the interior ,oT the condenser, is easily diverted to ezteh ol' the severel horizontal banks oi' tubes in p erel- -lel layers, so .to speak, on eech side of the con-y denser, the arrangement being such that the greatest, freedom of movement ol' the steam is aio'rded, es the passageway-sz l'or the steun erelnot blocked in any wey until ihesreiun reaches the condensing tubes.
The operation ot the condenser is iis 'ole iows: Steam'being admitted to the condenser through the inlet 2 While the condensing tubes, es previously stated, the stelen will llow fronrthe inlet 2 into the central space 40 extendnig throughout the length el' the eondenser, and will then flow sidewise over l to drain by gravity through the apertures 32 o the bottoni oll the condenser, whence it "will escape through the outlet 2), being drawn ofi by any suitable arrangement ol` n pparntus which will accomplish the purpose, as by :in ordninry l'orin of punip. Meanwhile any en' or other uncoinlenseble geses- \\fhich enny entert-.1ecomlenserwill collect beneath the portition 33, and being cooled by the condensing writer pessinijr through the pipes 34, will be drawn oil through the pipe 30.
