In the case of Lancashire and of water tubo boiler plants he gives three seta of figurse.

efficient plants working under modern scientific supervision or test conditions (about 5 per cent.); For cylindrical boilers, including economizers and superheaters where these are employed, he puts the average net working thermal efficiency for the threa İclasses at 60,49.2 and 79 per cent. The corresponding figures for water-tube boilers are 692,61 and 819. For small cylindrical boiler installations, consisting of one' or two small Lancashire or Cornish boilers, he puts the thermal efficiency at about Bé per cent, and for small vertical boilers such as are commonly used by builders and contractors and on farms, at 434 per cent, while to the old-fashioned egg- ended" boilers, of which a few still linger at collieries, he attri- butes the shocking perform- lance of about 35 per cent.
