Extract

In the Journal of Agricultural Science for October 1921, Dr J. W. Capstick described a calorimeter large enough to take a full-grown pig or a small bullock. This apparatus was in regular use up to the end of 1923 and proved, on the whole, quite satisfactory.

page 380 note 1 That the constant of leakage should be independent of the water-flow is a desideratum which might have been attained by dividing the inlet stream and running the inner and outer circulations in parallel with a regulating cock on each. This change may be incorporated at a future time.
