Tubing as defined in claim 6 in which the helix angle of said fins is related to the helix angle of said ribs such that each rib convolution extends axially of the tube to cross a multiplicity of fin convolutions.
This tubing, as in the prior Zatell patent, is produced by drawing integrally finned tubing through a circular die in such a way as to bend the fin convolutions transversely so as to bring the tip of each fin convolution into proximity to the side wall of the adjacent fin convolution.

The animal fibres are readily dyed by boiling with a solution of potassium permanganate, which, being at first absorbed by the fibre, is readily reduced to insoluble brown manganic hydrate.
Since caustic potash is generated from the permanganate and is liable to act detrimentally on the fibre, it is advisable to add some magnesium sulphate to the permanganate bath in order to counter-act this effect.

 Patent 4182412: Finned heat transfer tube with porous boiling surface and method for producing same
The invention relates to finned heat transfer tubes and to a method for impoving the heat transfer properties in boiling liquids of such tubes by plating the tubes in an electroplating bath containing conductive particles such as graphite powder to produce a porous plated surface.
A boiling test comparison in Freon R-11 of a one foot section of my improved plated tube and a similar length of unplated finned tubing heated internally with varying amounts of heat showed substantial improvement for the plated tube as evidenced by lower internal wall temperature readings.
Air is injected into the air tube 56 and then passes outwardly through the passages 50 where it forms air bubbles 60 which agitate the plating solution 42 and help keep the graphite particles 16 in suspension.

A magnetron tube consists of a central electron-emitter, one or two disk-magnets which cause the electrons to swirl in a whirlpool motion, several tuned cavities with their open mouths pointed into the whirlpool of charges, and a high voltage power supply which moves the electrons along at high velocity.
With luck, you might even be able to connect an "exit tube" to one of the bottles, connect the tube to a sealed metal cabinet, then actually heat any objects which are placed in the cabinet.

A steam generator is a boiling shell and tube heat exchanger that is under a delicate balance between water/steam and chemistry, including particulate, colloid, and dissolved chemical.
Boiling results in tube fouling with particulate deposit and dissolved chemical precipitate on the tube wall.
Tube fouling appears as tube scale, and its morphology dictates an increase or decrease in boiling efficiency and/or extra heat resistance.

Detailed step-by-step calculation procedures are set out in both cases for the determination of either the wall temperature when the tube is subjected to known heat flux (for example, when electrically heated) or the heat flux when the tube is heated to a known temperature, and all four cases are illustrated by worked example calculations.
For steam/water the method is stated to provide a root mean square error on wall temperature of about 10 per cent by comparison of predictions with some 2000 experimental values for which the ranges of the variables are also given.
