One of the two thermometers 7 aud 7 meas-ures the temperature of the water while passing into themetallic tube, the {>ther while passing out. The speed of the water is regulated by means of the cockli. the height of the water in the manometer being held atthe level H. In order to read the temperature it is only neces-sary to adjust the zero point of the scale to the tcmpera-tnre of the incoming water. Then the temperature of the out-
