Excerpt from Tests of Timber Beams
The temperature of the water, entering and leaving, was taken with mercury thermometers reading directly to tenths; these readings could be estimated to hundredths Of degrees C. The thermometers were passed through the stuffing boxes and were in direct contact with the water. The bafles, above mentioned, insured the breaking up of the stream lines, so that very nearly the average temperature of the water was obtained. This was tested by changing the position of the thermometers.
