of Mecklenburg, patented, in 1825, a device (B, Fig. 2685) in which steam was generated in a series of strong vertical tubes, which are submerged for the greater portion of their length in a bath of molten lead. The row of vertical pipes was supplied by water trickling from a pipe above, somewhat as in Fig. 2684, in which, however, the water is conducted from the pipe a b by an inner tube down to the bottom of the pipe e, in which it is flashed into steam. Instantaneous generators. Jennings's steam-engine, 1828 (C, Fig. 2685), has a piston or plunger m which moves in a cylinder n when water is injected beneath it by means of the pump o. Means of escape for the expanded steam are afforded by a valve working on the frame p when the piston has completed its upward stroke. In Danford's steam-generator (D, Fig. 2685) a is a spherical vessel, into which water is injected in a spray through pipe c c by the force pump g. d is a pipe through which superfluous water is blown off bac
