never heard of Doherty-Brehm till now- but a Google search turned up the patent, which I've attached. Was there a fan to move air thru it?

Steam Rad

I looked at this job back in January but only recently downloaded the pictures from my camera. I have never seen anything quite like it. The system is a Webster 2-pipe vapor system. This particular radiator had a water line attached that would allow the radiator to function as a humidifier. The water line was no longer connected but I wonder how well it functioned in its time. -DF

Fan

There was no fan, Frank. I'd imagine that it just relied on convection. -DF

Looks like the setup as like a cascading falls.Did the water enter on top and then end up being syphoned ??? One of those rare finds
