" In 1870 Messrs. B. Donkin & Co. Made experiments with a single cylinder condensing-engine, cylinder T^-inch. Diameter. The economy due to steam- jacketing the cylinder was about 19 per cent. The feed-water was measured. Steam pressure, 45 Ibs. Per square inch. Expansion, 2 to 1. * In 1871 experiments were carried out on a large single cylinder condensing pumping-engine, when a gain of about 13 per cent, was recorded, due to steam- jac^eting. Steam pressure, 35 Ibs. Per square inch.
The improvements which have been made in portable engines during the last few years, both in design and construction, are well known to everyone ; these improvements have resulted in increased economy of fuel. A large percentage of this increased efficiency is due to the now almost universal practice of steam- jacketing, combined with careful lagging of the cylinders.
