Figure 26, on the other hand, shows that practically saturated airwith high velocity and high temperature actually lost temperaturein flowing through canvas pipe. Air at 82° dry-bulb temperature, 44 UNDERGROUND VENTILATION AT BUTTE. 98 per cent relative humidity, was forced from the top of a manwajthrough 2,200 linear feet of 16-inch canvas tubing in a crosscut ata velocity of 4,200 linear feet per minute at the point of dischargethe air leaving the pipe at 79|° F. and 100 per cent relative humidity!The flowing air deposited so much water in the pipe that drainagehad to be provided. The probable reason for the decrease in airtemperature, instead of the usual increase of 1° F. or over per 100 feetof pipe, is that the rock temperature in the crosscut was 72J° F. and.
