mendation R174-40 for large-tube cast-iron radiators. A program is now in progress for the establishment of a similar recommendation for smalltube cast-iron radiators. Tables 1 and 2, and Figs. 1 and 2 show the sizes and dimensions of large-tube and small-tube cast-iron radiators which are being manufactured at the present time.
Pipe coils are assemblies of standard pipe or tubing (1 in. to 2 in.) which
