X.3181 I have an old memo referring to the Dalby Watson indicator. I think this matter should not be lost sight of, and progress should be made to get a satisfactory apparatus as quickly as possible. X.2981. You will remember that I suggested a long time ago a very easy and simple way of obtaining an indicator diagram slowly from a fast running engine. I should be glad to know whether you think it is worth while doing anything on the lines suggested. The arrangement as suggested by me is patentable R. {Sir Henry Royce} | ||
