| 10362? EXPERIMENTAL DEPARTMENT. Rm{William Robotham - Chief Engineer}/TAS.{T. Allan Swinden}8/JH. 17th June, 1938. Messrs. Jas Powell & Sons (Whitefriars) Ltd., 100 Wigmore Street, LONDON.W.11. Dear Sirs, We are interested in the measurement of fuel flow by means of stop watch and graduated bottles. The bottles should have capacities of 20,30, 100, 200 c.c. and be arranged in pyramid form so that flow times may be taken with two or more adjacent bottles. We would be glad to know whether you manufacture such a piece of apparatus and if so what its cost would be. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LTD. | ||
