I, SAMUEL PEEL RUSHWORTH of No. 68 Briggate Shipley in the West Riding of
the County of York Plumber, Glazier, & Hot Water Engineer do hereby declare the
nature of this invention to be as follows:-
The object of this Invention is to provide a more efficient and economical pipe for
the circulation of Steam or Hot Water used in the heating or warming of Public
Buildings Conservatories &c.
In the present system of heating, pipes are used which are circular in cross section
and which are not so efficient as they should be. This is mainly because the amount
of heating surface exposed to the atmosphere on a circular pipe is not sufficient in
proportion to the hot water or steam passing through the pipe and therefore the heat
is not radiated or thrown off quick enough.
This Invention relates to an Improved Pipe which is similar in cross section to a
flat oblong having the end sides of the oblong rounded off, or in more familiar
language this Improved Pipe would be similar to a circular pipe which has been
flattened.
It will be readily perceived that this Improved Pipe gives a good deal more heating
surface than a circular pipe of the same cross sectional area and therefore throws off
the heat quicker.
Having the same object in view and for the same purposes as hereinbefore stated,
this Improved Pipe may be made similar in cross section to an Ellipse, an oblong or
flat Rhomboid.

page_text: I, SAMUEL PEEL RUSHWORTH of No. 68, Briggate, Shipley in the West Riding of
the County of York, Plumber, Glazier & Hot Water Engineer 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 :-
The object of this Invention is to provide a more efficient and economical pipe for
the circulation of Steam or Hot Water used in the heating or warming of Public
Buildings, Conservatories &c.
In the present system of heating, pipes are used which are circular in cross section
and which are not so efficient as they should be. This is mainly because the amount
of heating surface, exposed to the atmosphere on a circular pipe is not sufficient in
proportion to the hot water or steam passing through the pipe and therefore the heat
is not radiated or thrown off quick enough.
This Invention relates to an Improved Pipe which is similar in cross section to a
flat oblong having the end sides of the oblong rounded off, or in more familiar
language this Improved Pipe would be similar to a circular pipe which has been
flattened.
It will be readily perceived that this Improved Pipe gives a good deal more heating
surface than a circular pipe of the same cross sectional area and therefore throws off
the heat quicker.
In the accompanying drawing, Fig. 1 represents an elevation and Fig. 2 represents
a cross section of the Improved Pipe.
Having the same object in view and for the same purpose as hereinbefore stated
this Improved Pipe may be made similar in cross section to Fig. 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9
in the accompanying drawing.
Having now particularly described and ascertained the nature of my said Inven-
tion and in what manner the same is to be performed, I declare that what I
claim is :-
First. An Improved Pipe similar in cross section to a flat oblong and substantially
as shown in Fig. 2 and as hereinbefore stated to be used in Heating or warming
Public Buildings Conservatories &c.
Second. Variations in cross section of the above Improved Pipe, having the same
object in view and for the same purpose, and substantially as shown in Figs. 3, 4, 5,
6, 7, 8 and 9.
