The Thermal Conductivity Of Refractories, Boyd Dudley Jr. Jan 1915

The Thermal Conductivity Of Refractories, Boyd Dudley Jr.

Professional Degree Theses

"The usefulness of correct data in regard to the thermal conductivity of refractories and other materials used in the construction of metallurgical and industrial furnaces is quite generally recognized. Numerous investigations of this property of refractories have been conducted, and in many cases the published data of different investigators are somewhat conflicting. This is particularly true of figures pertaining to materials intended for use at high temperatures, and it is with such materials that the metallurgist is mot interested. The difficulties in the way of precise determinations of thermal conductivities at elevated temperatures are numerous, and it is not particularly …

A Comparison Of Missouri Sandstones, Llewelyn Lodwick Jan 1914

A Comparison Of Missouri Sandstones, Llewelyn Lodwick

Bachelors Theses

"Because of the scarcity of fossils in sandstones, the ages of these stones are difficult to determine except by the fossil bearing rocks either above or below them. Consequently, sandstones, even of the same area, are often separated and correlated with difficulty. It is for this reason that an effort is made to determine a means by which each sandstone may be identified"--Introduction, page 1.
