I posted this in main wall because I thought it might be of general interest. Dan can move it if he wants to.
It's video footage from inside a couple of high pressure steam boilers under different pressures, amounts of TDS, feed water pump on and off, etc....
You can see it sucking water out into the steam pipe at certain conditions, while the LWCO thinks the boiler is low on water.
There's 2, approx 5 min segments. Here's the second. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tI3tWuSsX7c">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tI3tWuSsX7c</a>
I got it from the hobby steam folks at <a href="http://www.smokstak.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=5">http://www.smokstak.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=5</a>

Why gravity return is best
The modulating feed they show behaves just like gravity return. Many more spirax videos here--NBC
