...During the process of manufacture, air is inevitably occluded within the insulation and later while the cable is in operation gases are evolved from the oil. With high operating voltages these gases become ionized, and, striking the paper tapes, in time destroy them, literally by bombardment. In addition the heat generated chars the insulation and disintegrates the oils so that the combined effects have made high voltage cables the most unreliable link in the present electric power system No adequate test has yet been developed which will predict whether a cable will operate for any reasonable time...
...Connell reached these conclusions with engineering finesse. He placed men and women in a special cork-lined heat chamber built by the U. S. Bureau of Mines and operated jointly with the American Society of Heating & Ventilating Engineers. While the specimens rested and worked in still and moving air he made observations...
Warm blooded animals accommodate themselves efficiently to changes in temperature. They are continually manufacturing heat themselves and getting rid of it. Thus they maintain normal temperatures. The smaller the animal the higher is likely to be its body temperature. Temperature of a mouse is 105.8°, rabbit 102.0°, dog 100.0° to 102.0°, man 98.6°, horse 96.8° to 98.6°. Children are about one degree warmer than adults...
Dissipation of the body manufactured heat depends on the surroundings. The drier the air the more moisture-bound heat it can absorb. The faster the air moves the faster can it carry heat from the body. But if the air is hot, humid and still, the body must struggle to throw off heat. The harder it struggles, the harder the heart must work. The pulse rate indicates the heart efforts, and thus the body efforts. High pulse rate is an index of unwise, inefficient overexertion. Dr. McConnell found that when his subjects in the cork-lined test room developed...
