An Accident to Steam Pipes Arising From the Use of Blast Furnace Wool
At the Hartford meeting of the Society of Mechanical Engineers, Mr. C. E. Emery, M. Am. Soc. C. E., of New York, read a paper on Experiments with Non-Conductors of Heat. The results of his investigations with various non-conductors show such a remarkable power of retaining heat in blast furnace wool, that this substance has since that time been very largely employed for this purpose. This is owing to the long fibrous condition of the material, which mats together into an exceedingly light structure capable of retaining so much air that, while itself a good conductor of heat, it becomes eminently a bad one from the very large volume of air contained in it.
