Order No. P.C.16 Customer's No. X 4430 Date Jan 16th 1924 Variation of Capacity of Goshawk Condensers in Laboratory Records of the capacity readings of these condensers, covering the period from 3-11-23 up to the present time, shew a general tendency for the capacities to fall; probably due to the continued cold weather. Actually they are as follows:- No 30, 31, and 32. These have almost fallen to their original values. i.e. values before heat testing. No 29, 40, 547, & USH Bosch. These have fallen slightly. No 613, 741, and 774. These have practically retained the increases acquired during the heat tests. All the above with the exception of No 40 have been through a heating test. cont'd Signed This Sheet must be filed on completion of the work. | ||
