The discharge of this orifice is found experimentally by closing it tightly by a stopper, filling to a known height and noting the time it takes to lower each 0.1 m. Let S be the horizontal section of the pit, a the area of discharge, and n an unknown coefficient of contraction, h the head above the centre of the orifice, and t the time. We then have:--Sdh = nadt V2gh 2 & WH0--VH1 = nsTVig nsV'ig = %P W'H0-V/A) This gives at once ns V2g when the time T is noted, while the level falls from H0 to if,. The volume of water, or the weight rather, running out under head H, is 77= (ns v"20) VH. During the days of experiments we noted every fifteen minutes the heads h„ h„ h,... these varied little and VIlm = Vh + V-t ±; or, more simply even 'N whence II = (ns VW1 Vhm ± S ft, and fc, are initial and final heads of an experiment whose duration was T.

To arrive at the superheating a good thermometer is simply placed in mercury in a copper pocket open at one end and closed at the other and let into the steam pipe; this measurement is easy to obtain. The rise of temporature of the injection water in the condenser necessitates a more careful measurement--a special thermometer known already to the readers of our Bulletins, the differential air thermometer. The practical arrangements that M. Hir n brought about this instrument permitted...

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
