The word "kiers" in example sentences

The lime boil is carried out in what are called "kiers". ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

PARIS - Algerian security forces said they had killed 20 armed Moslem militants since the weekend and had identified the kiers of the last three foreigners to be murdered in Algeria. ❋ Unknown (1994)

The length of boil averages about four hours, certainly not less than three should be given, and it is not necessary to give more than five hours in either ordinary kiers, with central puffer pipe, or in injector kiers. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

It is usual, and it is a good plan with almost all kinds of kiers, except the Mather and Edmeston kiers, to put a number of large pebbles or small stones at the bottom of the kier, which serves to make a false bottom on which the goods rest and through which the liquor penetrates and flows away. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

Injector kiers are made to work either under a pressure of 40 lb. to 50 lb. of steam per square inch, when they are called high-pressure kiers, or at a pressure of 15 lb. to 20 lb., when they are called low-pressure kiers. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

Then again care should be taken, especially when using low-pressure kiers, to see that the supply of liquor does not get too low, in which case the goods in the upper part of the kier are liable to get dry and are tendered thereby. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

Many forms of kiers have been devised, but the one in most general use is that known as the "injector kier," of which a drawing is given in Fig. 4, of the form made by Messrs. Mather & Platt of Salford. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

The lye boils are done in the ordinary kiers, and do not call for further notice, except that in filling the goods into the kiers care should be taken that while sufficiently loose to permit of the alkaline liquors penetrating through the hanks properly, yet they should be so packed that they will not float about and thus become entangled and damaged. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

Great care should be taken to see that the goods are evenly laid in the kiers, not too tight, or the liquor will not penetrate properly; and not too slack, or they will float about and get entangled and more or less damaged. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

So long as the goods in the kiers are not allowed to get dry there is no risk of damage; this trouble rarely arises with the Barlow and injector kiers. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

Injector kiers consist of a hollow, upright iron cylinder made of plates riveted together; the top is made to lift off, but can be fastened down tightly by means of bolts and nuts as shown in the drawing. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

In some warp bleachworks, while the kiers are made in the same way, the other machines are made differently. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

The one shown in the drawing is intended for low-pressure kiers. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

The inside of the kiers should be kept well limed, so that the goods shall not come in contact with the bare iron or metal of which the kier is constructed, as this would be very likely to lead to stains being produced which are by no means easy to remove. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

If the ordinary dyeing machines are not used for this purpose, then the ordinary bleachers 'kiers may be used. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

Sometimes they arise from the machinery; if the kiers are not kept thoroughly whitewashed out, there is a great liability to produce iron stains. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

The length of the boil depends upon the kiers; with the open kier about ten hours are usually given, with the Barlow and injector kiers, working at a pressure of 40 lb. to 50 lb., six to seven hours are given. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

This is rather an old-fashioned form of machine, and is being replaced by more modern forms of boiling kiers. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)

Care should be taken to see that the goods are well packed into the kiers, not too tightly or the lye will fail to penetrate equally all through, and this is important if a uniform bleach is desired; neither should they be too loose, or they will float about and get torn. ❋ Franklin Beech (N/A)
