Birds and Hares
&c might perhaps
go into putrefaction
with their own heat
if taken in on a
hot day, unless
cooled by water.
Observe the increase
of temperature produced
in the water
by each cooling,
and reduce it
by putting in ice.

After standing
a suffucient time
in the water to cool, the article
might then
be hung up to
drain, either in
the Cooling room
or the Frigidarium
itself

To keep down
the temperature
in the Frigidarium
stow ice in a horizontal
racks as
high up as it
can be stowed. The air below
in proportion as it
is heated by the bodies
of the operators
&c will rise
to the top and melt
the ice, which as
it melts will drop
down and cool the
air below.

Thermometers

Fluid red coloured
spirit.

Tube large & long
with a long scale
but short -say
20 belowabove &
to to 80.

White board with
black figures.

Thermometer liquor
the more sensible
the better and
as no heats above
80 will require to be
indicated, the only
objection to spirits
seems out of the
question here.

Thermometer that
shows the highest
rise & lowest fall
Six's. see Themometer
Encycl. Brit.
compounded of
Mercury & Alcohol
with a floating
Index in the inside
that rises but will
not fall. - & vice
versa

But see 1799Edinburgh
'Transactions in Phil.
May No for a
perfect Registering
Themometer.

Time for transferring
to the Cooling
Room the cooled
part of the 24 Hour
Quantity of ice
requisite for bringing
down 1lb of meat
to the temperature
for preserving

Temperature of
the air, say 62

Temperature of
the ice or ice-
cold water say 32

Difference 30

1lb off water at
32 will then
bring the meat
down to 2/30=15

One other 2/15=7 1/2
22 1/2

Tube 22 1/2 from
62, remainder is30) 1/2

But the water which
in cooling the meat
to 47o has raised
itself to 47 will
serve to cool another
lb of meat
from 62 to 54 1/2

Entrance into the
Cooling Room by
a passage with a door
at each end. Both
Doors to draw to by
a weight: and for
additional security,
best the outer door
should be left open or a jar
purposely to save
trouble or through
the inner
door might be so
connected with it, as
not to open unless
the outer door were
already shut.
