Excerpt from Correcting Engine Tests for Humidity
On the basis of the Bureau of Standards tests, which show but 101 per cent a: per cent of the loss predicted from the oxygen content hypothesis, there is a per cent probability that other factors tend to compensate for the loss occasioned by reduction of oxygen and in crease oi optimum spark advance. Such other factors may include lower radiation, dissociation, and less change of specific heats, due to lower maximum temperatures.
