TENTS PROTECTED
FROM HEAT AND COLD
Bureau of Standards Experiments
Prove Help to Automobiles
and Campers.

Experiments recently conducted by
the bureau of standards have attain
ed two results of interest to auto
mobilists and campers. The bureau
was asked by the air service short
time ago to devise a means of keep
ing the interior of ballon hangers at
as low temperature as possible, and
succeeded. The same results, the
bureau announced, will be attained
for keeping heat out of tents in the
summer.
If the outside of a tent is covered
with a highly rejecting surface, such
as white paint, while the inside is
covered with aluminium paint, the
radiation into the interior of the tent
may be reduced by about so per cent.
This scheme for painting tents would
have the reverse effect at night. and
would prevent the heat on the inside
of the tent from escaping into the
cooler air outside.
The bureau found in the course
of its experiments with automobile
engines that unless they are so de-
signed that the heat generated by
slow-burning mixtures or preignition
is rapidly dissipated, the exhaust
valve seats may reach such tempera-
ture SuSe excessive wear of
these parts. .--Mul
