Side 52 - ... as follows : Two ordinary glass tumblers of the same size are filled to the brim, one with the dry sand to be tested and the other with water. The water is then poured carefully from the one glass into the sand in the other until it reaches the point of overflowing. The volume of water removed from the glass which was originally full of water can be taken as an approximate measure of the voids in the unit volume of sand contained in the tumbler. A simple calculation will reduce this to percentage...

The peat was furnished by the Orlando Water and Light Company and was secured from a bog near the city of Orlando, Orange County, Fla. In starting the producer test the fuel bed was built up entirely of the Florida peat, and the usual preliminary run was conducted before the official test began. The total amount of peat consumed...
Side 62 - I have made uo report, from the fact that the general assembly failed to specify any duties or make any appropriations to defray any expenses incurred in reference to the matter. Consequently, nothing has been done by me except to obtain specimens of soils and minerals from the various localities (where marked changes were perceptible) visited by me in the performance of the duties of engineer.
Side 38 - The amount of peat used per electrical horse power per hour available for outside purposes, including the estimated quantity required for the generation of the steam used in the operation of the producer, was 3.16 pounds, while 2.69 pounds were required per brake horsepower hour at the gas engine, available for outside purposes.
Side 39 - ... was 6.98 pounds. The calorific value of the peat as used was 10,082 British thermal units per pound. The principal difficulty in the utilization of peat under boilers appears to be the frequency with which it is necessary to fire. On account of the lightness of the material and also on account of its rapid combustion the fireman was kept at work almost constantly during the test.
