In the middle of the tunnel, through a length of pipe of 3.8 miles, the absolute pressure fell only from six atmospheres to 5.7 atmospheres, or to .95 of the original pressure. At the Hoosac Tunnel the air was carried through an 8-inch pipe from the compressors to the heading, a distance of 7,150 feet,...
Página 41 - It has been found best to take a thermal unit to be the quantity of heat which correspends to some definite interval of temperature in a definite weight of a particular substance. ' Def. A British Thermal Unit is the quantity of heat which corresponds to an interval of one degree of Fahrenheit's scale, in the temperature of one pound of pure liquid water at its temperature of greatest density (39°.
