ORIGINAL Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}2/LG2.1.28. WEIR TYPE INDUCTION PIPE FOR PHANTOM. X8070 We have carried out tests with this and find the results so far shew it to be a definite improvement over the present standard Phantom. We anticipate that if we can reproduce these results consistently that we should be able to revert to water heating for the induction bend instead of the exhaust heating.
