The National Boiler Insurance Company Laxton, William (1866). "Abstract of Report". The Civil Engineer & Architect's Journal. 29 (February 1st): 39– 40
Boiler explosions are common in sinking ships once the hot boiler touches cold sea water, as the sudden cooling of the hot metal causes it to crack; for instance, when the SS Benlomond was torpedoed by a U-boat, the torpedoes and resulting boiler explosion caused the ship to go down in two minutes, leaving Poon Lim as the only survivor in a ...
The Utica Shale is a thinly laminated black shale that is high in organic content, and is the primary source rock in the Mansfield Natural Gas Field. The Utica shale is a relatively thin unit ranging from 50 to 90 feet (15 to 27 m) in thickness and when acting as a reservoir it is self-sourced and highly fractured.

The Utica Shale in Quebec potentially holds 4 × 10 ^ 12 cu ft (110 × 10 ^ 9 m 3) at production rates of 1 × 10 ^ 6 cu ft (28,000 m 3) per day. [5] [6] From 2006 through 2009 24 wells, both vertical and horizontal, were drilled to test the Utica. Positive gas flow test results were reported, although none of the wells were producing at the ...
The fourth category of furnace is the high-efficiency condensing gas furnace. High efficiency condensing gas furnaces typically achieve between 90% and 98% AFUE. [3] A condensing gas furnace includes a sealed combustion area, combustion draft inducer and a secondary heat exchanger. The primary gain in efficiency for a condensing gas furnace, as ...
