Bailey - Chief Engineer} E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} to E. {Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer} oy X4613 Hs {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} 2/LG21.12.23 40/50 - HEAT ON FLOORBOARDS AND UNDER SCUTTLE. X4613 X849 We carried out a further series of tests of insulating the exhaust. The tests so far with this show that there will be a considerable drop in temperature if we can find a practical means of heat insulating the exhaust pipes. Hs. {Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} | ||
