The physical observer takes the temperatures of the wall and air by the electric-resistance thermometers, reads the mercury thermometers, records the rectal thermometer, and at the exact moment of beginning the experiment the current of water which has previously been running into the drain is deflected into the water-meter. ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
In connection with the calorimeter and the accessories, mercurial and electric-resistance thermometers are employed. ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
More recently, plans were made to incorporate some of the results of the rapidly accumulating experience in the use of resistance thermometers and consequently an electric-resistance thermometer was devised to meet the conditions of experimentation with the respiration calorimeter by Dr.E. F. Northrup, of the Leeds & ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
The installation of the electric-resistance thermometers connected with the temperature recorder does away with the reading of the mercurial thermometers, save for purposes of comparison, and hence it is unnecessary for the assistant to leave the chair at the observer's table when the bed calorimeter is in use. ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
For measuring the temperature of the water as it enters and leaves the chamber through horizontal tubes, mercurial thermometers are used, and these are supplemented by electric-resistance thermometers which are connected with a special form of recording instrument for permanently recording the temperature differences. ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
For the measurement of the temperatures inside of the calorimeter, two sets of electric-resistance thermometers are used, one of which is a series of open coils of wire suspended in the air of the chamber so as to take up quickly the temperature of the air. ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
The measurement of the temperature differences of the water-current by the electric-resistance thermometer was tried a number of years ago by ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
The disposition of the electric-resistance thermometers about the chamber has, after a great deal of experimenting, been made such as to permit the measurement as nearly as possible of the average temperature in the chamber. ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
By use of the vacuum jacket mentioned above, this warming of the water has been avoided, and in electric-resistance thermometers special precautions are taken not only with regard to the relative position of the bulb of the mercury thermometer and the resistance thermometer, but also with regard to the hard-rubber insulation, to avoid errors of this nature. ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
However, this system of insulation is impracticable when electric-resistance thermometers are used for recording the water-temperature differences and can be used only when mercurial thermometers exclusively are employed. ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
Of the five connections appearing through the opening, reading from left to right, we have, first, the rubber connection with the pneumograph, then the tubing for connection with the stethoscope, then the electric-resistance thermometer, the telephone, and finally a push button for bell call. ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
These observations consist of the reading of the mercurial thermometers indicating the temperatures of the ingoing and outcoming water, records with the electric-resistance thermometers for the temperature of the air and the walls and the body temperatures, and the deflections of the thermo-electric elements. ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
The electric-resistance thermometers are constructed in such a way, however, as to make negligible any inequalities in the passage of heat through the hard-rubber casing. ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
A series of electric-resistance thermometers placed at different points in the colon, at different points in a stomach tube, in the well-closed axilla, possibly attached to the surface of the body, and in women in the vagina, should give a very accurate picture of the distribution of the body-temperature and likewise indicate the proportionality of the fluctuations in different parts of the body. ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
The best insulation was secured by a vacuum-jacketed glass tube, although the special hard-rubber tubes surrounding the electric-resistance thermometers have proven very effective as insulators in the bed calorimeter. ❋ Francis Gano Benedict (1913)
