...very modern and complete equipment. In the department of Mechanical Engineering are heat engine laboratories, an applied mechanics laboratory, hydraulic laboratory, laboratory for testing materials, cement and concrete laboratories, the power room at Pierce Hall, and the Refrigeration plant at the Medical School. The electrical equipment includes dynamo, research, high tension, photometric, and standardizing laboratories. In addition are several chemical and physics workshops, as well as a laboratory of sanitary engineering, the Cruft Laboratory for radio-telegraphic engineering, the Simpkins ore-dressing laboratory, the Simpkins assay laboratory, and the laboratory of metallurgy...
...certain rather old-fashioned Corliss steam engine requires 2.6 pounds of coal per horsepower per hour. Let us allow three, to take dynamo and transmission losses into consideration...
...Physical Conference. "Dynamo Design Perspective." II. Professor C. A. Adams. Jefferson Physical Laboratory...
...closer examination of its scope. Perhaps the elements of the new profession are the two laws of the conservation of energy and the indestructibility of matter. But the extent to which these laws and their derivatives can be applied is wholly without limit. Thirty years ago a dynamo of 250 horse-power was dreamed of as a possibility. At the present time, dynamos of almost twice that power are in use all over the world. And there is no telling how far this increase may extend. The fundamental nature of matter and energy are not known, perhaps may never...
...pattern. This system is already in use in a number of cities, and effectually does away with manual connection at a central office. The telephones will be installed as soon as possible in Pierce Hall, connecting the offices of Professor Kennelly, Professor Adams, and Mr. Whiting, the engine and dynamo rooms, and the hall on the second floor. Since the gift was made primarily for exhibition purposes, the apparatus will be set up for inspection...
