8979DE MACHINA HYDRAVL. LONDINENSI. Receiver P1, There is nothing there to countrebal-
lance
, the preſſure of the Atmoſphere, on the ſurface
of
the Water, in the lower Part of the Suking Pipe T;
where fore it will be preſſed up, and aſcend into, and
fill
the Receiver P1, driving out before it as it raiſes,
the
Clack or Valve R3, which afterwards falling down
again
and ſhutting cloſe hinders the deſcent of the wa-
ter
that way.
Then (the Receiver P2, being in the
mean
time emptied of its Air) turn the handle of the
Regulator
from you, and the Force of the Steam co-
ming
from the Boyler, will be all upon the ſurface of the
Water
contained in the Receiver P1, where it grauita-
tes
or preſſes hard upon it, and ſtill encreaſes, its Spring
or
elaſticity, till it comes to overballance, or exceed
the
Weight of the Water into the Receiver, which
then
it will neceffarly drive up through the Paſſage Q,
R
, Q, Q, into the Force Pipe S, and at laſt diſcharge it
out
at the Top, as you ſee in the Figure.
After the very ſame manner, tho alternately, is the
Receiver
P2 filled with, and emptied of Water, and
by
this Means a conſtant Steam is kept continually
running
out at the Top of the Force Pipe S, and ſo the
water
is raiſed very eaſily from the bottom of the mine
etc
.
to the place, where it is deſigned to be diſcharged.
Only 1 ſhould add, that after the Engine begins to
work
, and the water is ſen into, and hath filled the
Force
Pipe S, then it fills the little Ciſtern X, and by
that
means feeds the Pipe yy, which he calls the con-
denſing
Pipe, becauſe Water is conveyed down from
thence
, to cool the receivers, when troughly heated
by
the Steam, in order to make them Suck (at t'is u-
ſually
called) the Water out of the well up into the
Receiver
.
