    current flowing through a conduit with parallel generatriccs, thevelocities are constant throughout the whole diameter of anygiven section. It is necessary therefore to give to the entrancecone such a,shape that the trajectories of the fluid will benearly rectilinear in the sectior-of the experiment ciarnbernearthe mouth of the entrance cone.

    In his article, Professor Joukowski indicates how it isnecessary to design the entrance cone for a tunnel with a rectangular or circular cross section, the entrance to which isfree or in front of which a wall or screen is placed.

    As [email protected] the exit cone, Professor Joukowski indicates theshape of the co-neitself, as also of the spinner on the propel-ler hub, which is determined by the constancy of the velocityat the entzance of tb-eexit cone and ttlenon-turbulent flow ofthe air in the exit cone.*

    These wind-tunnel shapes are of double importance because,by eliminating the guide vanes, they render it possible to di-minish the power required and because the suppression of the

    In 1S16-1917, Professor Toupolef made a series of tests onodels of exit cones of varioufi lengths. As a result of theseests, he desi~ned a C1OSN3eturned through an ar.nula.rroper, si~.ilarto the plan

    c?iameter of 1.5 m (4.92 ft.) and the other 2.25 m (7.38 ft.).When working in the large chamber, part 4 of the exit cone isremoved and the air enters through the annular opening thusformed. With a 48 HP. electric motor, driving a four-bladedpropeller with constant circulation along the radius and re-volving at 960 R.P.U., there was attained, in the 1.5 m (4.92ft.) section, a velocity of ~1 m (157.5 ft.) per s~ccmd, co~re-sponding to an energy factor of 3.5, which is one of the high-est, if not the highest, foz any existing wind tunnel? In the2.25 m (7.38 ft.) section, the energy factor is 0.75, likewisea very high v a l u e for a wind tunnel without an exit cone and -due to a good arrangement of the returiiair conduits.

    The experiment char.lker,shcvn in Fig. 4, is designed toprotect the experimenters from the returning air strea,m,the ve-locity of which may reach 7 m (23 ft.) per second. It is stream-lined, with the nropeller in_the larger end, in such a way asto ~Lire& the air symmetrically with respect to the tunnel andthus obtain in the experiment chamber a good regularity in bothtime and space. In fact, we thus succeeded in o-otaining,with-out .puidevanes, a very regular field in both experiment chanbe=.

    It is known that Joukowskis vortex theory of the propeller,eveloped by ?~of es~or Jettchi-nkine,considera the absolute mo-tion of the fluid with rsspect to the circle s~ept oythe propel.er and calculates the menn inducedfvelocities by the actionof an infinity of helicoidal vortices distributed over coi~cenric cylindrical surfaces (Fig. 7), of an infinite nurllbcrofortices bound to the blades in the plane of rotation antibyn axial vortex behi-nd the propeller. *
