Not*--The losses ol head for the orifices in the lM-in. and 2-in. pipe were calculated from those m the smaller pipes, the calculations being based on the assumption that, for any Sven velocity. the loss of head is a function of the ratio of the diameter of the pipe to that of the office. Tins had been found to be practically true in the tests to determine the losses of head in onfices m Ji-in,, 1-in., and 1n-m. pipe, amducted by the Texas Engineering Experiment Station, and also in the tests to determine the losses of head in orifices in 4-in., 6-in., and 12-in. pipe, conducted by the Engineering Experiment Station of the.University, of Illinois,(BuEe/in 109. Table 6, p. 38; Davis and Jordan).

negligible as may be seen from the following study. Assume, as an extreme case, that the error in pipe size is so large that the water flows twice as fast through one of the radiators as through the others. This would make the friction head through this radiator almost four times as large as those through the other radiators. The result would be that the water, in flowing through the radiator, would cool 5 F instead of 10 F. The mean water temperature in the radiator would then be 217F in stead of 215 F, and the mean temperature difference, water to air, would be 147J4 F instead of 145 F. The heat dissipated by the radiator would therefore be about 2 per cent more than calculated. It is evident that this difference in heat dissipation is smaller than the difference between

the calculated heat losses and the actual heat losses, and also smaller than the average difference between the calculated radiator sizes and the nearest stock sizes selected.
GRAVITY CIRCULATION For gravity circulation, the one-pipe system shown in Fig. 6 and the two-pipe direct return system shown in Fig. 7 are probably in most common use: The one-pipe system has the disadvantage that the radiator nearest the
