Página 21 - ... free convection." At any rate the order of magnitude, of the results is right and up to 2700° K. there is no perceptible temperature coefficient to the value of B. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS. It has been shown that: 1. The loss of heat from wires by free convection takes place exactly as if there were a film of stationary gas around the wire, through which the heat is carried entirely by conduction. 2. The thickness of the film is independent of the temperature of the wire, but probably increases...
Página 69 - Specific Gravity is the ratio of weight of a given volume of material to the weight of an equal volume of water. In this method both weights are corrected to weight in vacuum, and the standard reference temperature for both material and water is 60°F.

It is insulated with micanite sheets and placed between two 1/16 in. copper plates which are then held together tightly by means of a number of copper screws passing through holes in the fibre board. Each plate has a 3/32 in. saw-cut isolating an 8 in. square in the center, as shown in the figure. This arrangement tends to minimize the heat conduction between the center square and the outer or guard ring....

Página 21 - B being a constant for any gas, b diameter of film of gas, a diameter of 5. The rate of convection of heat from any wire is equal to the product of two factors, one the shape factor s involving only the diameter of the wire and the constant B (for any gas); and the other, a function <p of the heat conductivity of the gas. Thus if W is the energy loss from wire in watts per cm., then W = where s may be found from the equation s -;-- = a and r \dT.
