They have opened door after door in their vast treasuries, have ascended throne after throne of power, and ruled realms of increasing extent. We have no doubt that unfoldings in the future will amaze even those whose expectations have been ... http://technologynews.technologyacademy.info/technology/men-have-found-the-various-worlds-to-be-far-richer-than-they-originally/ sizes are designated by numbers from 1 up Removable nozzles have various size openings through them and the different sizes are designated by numbers from 1 up. The same number does not always indicate the same size opening in torches of different makes, nor does it indicate a nozzle of the same capacity. http://technologynews.technologyacademy.info/technology/removable-nozzles-have-various-size-openings-through-them-and-the-different-2/ and the chief problem was to provide a motor light enough to furnish sufficient power for driving a balloon that had sufficient lifting capacity to support it and the aeronaut in the air Weight, of course, was the great bugbear of every air-ship inventor, and the chief problem was to provide a motor light ... http://technologynews.technologyacademy.info/technology/weight-of-course-was-the-great-bugbear-of-every-air-ship-inventor-2/ Types of Low-Reluctance Circuits. As the pull of an electromagnet upon its armature depends on the total number of lines of force passing from the core to the armature--that is, on the total flux--and as the total flux depends for a given magnetizing force on the reluctance of the magnetic circuit, it is obvious ... http://technologynews.technologyacademy.info/technology/types-of-low-reluctance-circuits/ air; therefore, if we were to supply pure oxygen in place of air, and in equal volume, the action would be several times as intense The oxygen of the combustion only forms one-fifth of the total volume of air; therefore, if we were to supply pure oxygen in place of air, and in equal ... http://technologynews.technologyacademy.info/technology/the-oxygen-of-the-combustion-only-forms-one-fifth-of-the-total-volume-of/ CHANGING SPEED HOURS TO SECONDS.--As one- sixtieth of the speed per minute will represent the rate of movement per second, it is a comparatively easy matter to convert the time from speed in miles per hour to fraction of a mile traveled in a second, by merely taking one-half of the speed in miles, and adding ... http://technologynews.technologyacademy.info/technology/changing-speed-hours-to-seconds-2/ than the first, and had a capacity of 94,000 cubic feet of gas with a triple air bag of 17,500 cubic feet to compensate for loss of gas; this latter was kept inflated by a rotary fan The second airship of Lebaudy construction was 7 feet longer than the first, and had a capacity ... http://technologynews.technologyacademy.info/technology/the-second-airship-of-lebaudy-construction-was-7-feet-longer/ _A._--No; the friction, so long as there is no violent heating or abrasion, is simply in the proportion of the pressure keeping the surfaces together, or nearly so. It is, therefore, an obvious advantage to have the bearing surfaces of steam engines as large as possible, as there is no increase of friction by ... http://technologynews.technologyacademy.info/technology/_a-201/ built a dirigible which he proposed to drive by man-power--it was anticipated that the vessel would be of use in the siege of Paris, but it was not actually tested till after the conclusion of the war In 1872 Dupuy de Lome, commissioned by the French government, built a dirigible which he proposed to drive ... http://technologynews.technologyacademy.info/technology/in-1872-dupuy-de-lome-commissioned-by-the-french-government/ as 0 With this 200 horse-power Anzani, a petrol consumption of as low as 0.49 lbs. of fuel per brake horse-power per hour has been obtained, but the consumption of lubricating oil is compensatingly high, being up to one-fifth of the fuel used. The cylinders are set desaxe with the crank shaft, and are ... http://technologynews.technologyacademy.info/technology/with-this-200-horse-power-anzani-a-petrol-consumption-of-as-low-2/
