BENTLEY SUPERCHARGER.

We attach a print of Hs.{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}1642 giving the leading dimensions for a blower suitable for the Bentley engine.

In detailing this we think it will be desirable to incorporate a seal behind the rotor disk to keep pressures and suctions from the bearings as is done on our aero blowers.
