GALLOWAY, W. Sc J., Sc SONS, Knott Mill Iren Works, Manchester .—Pair of Compound High and Low’ Pressure Engines to indicate 100 horse-pow r er, designed specially to secure economy in fuel and simplicity of construction. The whole of the Engines self-contained, and the Governor, by being placed in direct communication with the Slide Valve for the admission of steam into the high-pressure Cylinder, does away with the necessity of a Throttle Valve, and thus gets the full pressure of steam effectually upon the Piston. The Exhaust Valves for both high and low r -pressure Cylinders are w orked off separate eccentiics, and the Air Pump is placed horizontally in rear of the Engine, and is of simple construction, so as to enable the Engine to be run at veiy high rates of speed if required. Two Patent Gallow ay Boilers, each of 50 horse-pow’er, and each capable of giving off sufficient steam to diive about 200 indicated horse-pow er, suitable for an ordinary working pressure of 5 atmospheres. The especial feature of these Boilers consists of the “ Galloway ” Tubes, which are largely introduced into the flues, the Boiler being foimed in the fiont similar to a plain tw r o-flued Boiler, but immediately in rear of the fn e-bars, these two furnaces uniting into an oval back flue, in wdiich are placed 24 “ Gallow ay ” Tubes and 4 Side Pockets. These Tubes cause a rapid circulation of water, and prevent, in a great measure, the w ear and tear w hich always takes place in a tw T o-flued Boiler where there is so great a difference in temperature in the water above and below the flues. This form of Boiler is being rapidly introduced into England, about 4000 of them being now working. The “ Gallow’ay ” Tubes are also largely applied to the ordinary Cornish and tw’O-flued Boilers, as they have the advantage of strengthening the flues, improving the circulation, and increasing the powder of the Boiler. These Boilers have been found, from careful expeiimcnt, to evaporate upwards of 10 lbs. of water per lb. of coal, the w r ater having been let in at Co degrees temperature.
