PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in and connected with Means for Heating Water
by Steam.
CHARLES SAVILLE Engineer Royal Bath Hospital Harrogate do hereby
declare the nature of this invention to be as follows:
An improved economizer for heating water with steam and utilising the
condensed water by means of a perforated tube or tubes, drilled horizontally and
alternately as regards the sides. The invention distributes the water and steam
equally, & boils the water without loss and noiselessly.
The invention consists in the attachment to the steam coil of the aforesaid
perforated tubes, & in the method of such attachment, whereby all the water
condensed from the steam flows into the cistern & is utilised there; and also in the
increased size of the steain coil as compared with the conducting steam pipe, by
means of which the steam is not only available for heating the water, but is more
readily condensed & the steam coil decreases in size at the outflow perforated tubes,
which return the condensed water to the cistern.
Dated this 28th day of November 1894.

COMPLETE SPECIFICATION.
Improvements in and connected with Means for Heating Water
by Steam.
I, CHARLES SAVILLE, Engineer of Royal Bath Hospital Harrogate, do
hereby declare the nature of this invention and in what manner the same is to
be performed, to be particularly described and ascertained in and by the following
statement :--
My invention relates to apparatus or means for heating water by steam.
My said apparatus consists of a tank or chamber having a tubular arrangement
therein, in which the steam, used to heat the water, is condensed and discharged
into the said water, through a suitable perforated pipe, instead of being discharged
in the ordinary way as waste steam. By this means the full heating power of the
steam is utilized in beating the water.
DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING.
Fig. 1, is a sectional plan of my invention.
A is a water tank or chamber having a series of steam pipes B arranged
therein.
The steam inlet C is joined into the first of the pipes B, and the said pipes
are joined by unions or elbows D so as to form a circulating passage for the steam,
until it comes to the last of the pipes, into which is joined a perforated pipe E,
which allows the condensed steam to pass into the tank or chamber A after
circulating round the pipes B.
The top of the perforated pipe E ends in a T with two bends with diminishing
soundings and is placed diagonally in the tank or chamber.

and J are stays for the pipes B.
G is the cold water inlet. H the hot water outlet,
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said
invention and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what
I claim is
The combination with a water tank or chamber A, having a series of steam
circulating pipes B, of a perforated pipe E, arranged and operating, in the manner
and for the purposes, such as shown and described.
