Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Influence of Electrical Discharge Upon Acetylene Flame; Standard Cells; Evaporation Upon the Iowa River
The effect of a direct current on the flame was also tried. The source consisted of several small direct-current machines having their armature in series and giving a total of about volts. An almost noiseless, steady light resulted, but the experiments had to be discontinued before any measurements were made.
