jector. — The injector is used for feedingboilers, and for little else. Since the heat drawn from the boileris returned to the boiler again, save the very small part whichis changed into mechanical energy, it appears as though the 460 INJECTORS efficiency was perfect, and that one injector is as… … Fig. 92- on page 450 that the kinetic energy of the jet in the delivery-tube is less than one per cent of the energy due to the condensa-tion of the steam. On this account the injector is used wherevercold water must be forced into a boiler, as on a locomotive, orwhen sea-water is supplied to a…
