| X 108 To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} from E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner} E.{Mr Elliott - Chief Engineer}/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner}1/HP.12.11.32. c. WOR.{Arthur Wormald - General Works Manager} Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair} RHC.{R. H. Coverley - Production Engineer} re Peregrine Carburetter. This drawing has been prepared showing all the uptodate design, and development features which should be incorporated on the final carburetter. The two most important points are: (1) We have substituted a drilled passage in place of the slow running annular groove. This will overcome the difficulty of making the throttle body a tight fit in the main casting. (2) The hole feeding the throttle edge has been tilted, and the cock formed, so that it will be a better fit. E/JNR.{Charles L. Jenner} RECEIVED 1-DEC 1932 | ||
