In this case the radiatorswould become absorbers. The heat would be taken up from the air of the roomby the cold water and carried away. Exactly this is done by the absorbersinside the chamber of the respiration calorimeter. By regulating the tempera-ture of this water current as it enters, and also its rate of flow, it is possible tocarry away the heat just as fast as it is generated, and thus maintain a constanttemperature inside the chamber. The amount of the outgoing water and itstemperature are measured, thus determining the heat carried away. Inasmuch as the technical details of the apparatus and methods are to begiven elsewhere a brief account will suffice here. This may include a few wordsregarding the arrangements for measuring the temperature of the air inside the. CD
