Abstract

One's freedom in planning an Applied Thermodynamics laboratory in any existing building is limited by the siting of supplies and services. Equipment associated with the use of steam is logically grouped away from that which primarily has to have an outlet for hot contaminated gas. Items which are largely self‐contained, such as a refrigeration rig, or a reciprocating air compressor, may be placed almost anywhere, although even with these, a cooling water supply is likely to be needed. Starting from scratch it would seem reasonable to plan on such a basis relating the machine's location to the services it demands.
