described. Typical problems encountered were presented with their practical solutions. C o r r o s i o n P r o b l e m s in S t e a m Jet V a c u u m E q u i p m e n t . Presented by : D. H. Jackson. Erosion and corrosion in normal high-speed steam jet vacuum equipment is a serious problem. The damage rate is higher than in almost any other equipment handling steam. The results of actual operating tests on numerous alloys, plastics and carbon were presented. For most purposes the high chromium alloy steels appear to be most satisfactory from a service standpoint.

Flash V a p o r i s a t i o n - - Analysis o f Fluid M e c h a n i c a l and Mass T r a n s f e r P r o b l e m s . Presented by : R. R. Hughes, H. D. Evans an,/ C. V. Sternling. The semi=quantitative treatment given in this paper of the mechanical separation of liquid from vapour in flashers and evaporators will aid materially in the design of this type of equipment. The general concepts of liquid atomisation and drop separation were discussed as was flashing efficiency. I. A. BRO,MI.EY.
