ted with thesepumps to regulate the pressure soas to give through the delivery pipe a very steady stream.This dome contains air. When the plunger descends it forceswater violently into E and thus tends to produce a severestrain in the pipe. But the water enters the dome, compressesthe elastic air… … Fig. 147. 1 At 50° the limit would be 1033.6 - (9.2 x 13.6) = 908.4 cm. At 100° the hight wouldbe 1033.6 — (76 x 13.6) := 0 cm, the pressure of water vapor being equal to the pressureof the atmosphere.
