The tendency, of late, has been to increase the steam pressures carried in marine boilers, for which reason boilers of circular section, which have sufficient strength with little internal bracing, are preferred to those of rectangular shape requiring a large number of braces. In general, when circular boilers are used, there is considerable space necessarily wasted in the spandrels, which in the rectangular system, can be made part of the internal capacity; and when the height is limited, so large a number of circular boilers are required in a naval steamer that it becomes difficult to keep the feed water distributed uniformly. To utilize the strength of the circular form of boiler and permit in great measure the changes of shape and size with limited height which are possible with rectangular boilers, the writer some years since developed a system in which the boiler shells, in section, were composed of a series of connected circular arcs, supported by other arcs either directly or through ties or struts connecting the junctions on one side of the boiler with those of similar arcs on the other side.
