Laurence, Scott & Electromotors Ltd Electrical Review Photo L. S. E. motors for BOILER HOUSE AUXILIARIES L.S.E. have specialised for many years in the manufacture of motors for the exacting service demanded of power station auxiliaries. The range of machines includes the “ N-S ” Variable Speed A .C . motor ; large direct starting squirrel cage motors, which may be of the “ Trislot ” high torque type when required ; and all standard types. The “ EM COL ” cooling system, enabling totally enclosed machines to be made of practically any required output, is also invaluable for many boiler house applications. (The illustration is of six265 H.P. 422 R.P.M. 3'3 K.V. direct starting squirrel cage “ EMCOL ” totally enclosed vertical spindle pump motors at LITTLE BARFORD power station. Other power stations recently described in the technical Press, for which we supplied many motors, include EARLEY and LLYNFI.) ( e o u r e c h m k J LAURENCE, SCOTT & ELECTROMOTORS LTD.

There are local lighting reflectors, either Extensive (1), or Intensive (2) to be mounted on pendants, or there are 45° (3), or 90° types (4) to be mounted in positions where they will not cause glare in the eyes of others. Local reflectors are fitted on adjustable brackets (5) which can be rigidly locked in any desired position. From a distance the Intensolux (6) throw s a fairly narrow beam of light. It can often be placed high up out of the way. The miniature Intensolux (7) used with low voltage auto lamps gives a small circle of light from a shorter range. The illustrations are of fila­ ment reflectors, fluorescent tubular lighting often requires the use of supplementary units also. A This is sheet No. 12.

  • A Lunchtime Stroll in Leeds City Centre
    2 kilometres / 30 minutes to 1 hour. Accessibility – All this route is on pavements and avoids steps. A lunchtime stroll in Leeds City Centre There are numerous bridges and river crossings in Leeds. However, there is only one referred to affectionately as “Leeds Bridge”. This is where our walk starts. There has been some form of crossing here since the middle ages. The bridge you see today was built out of cast iron in the early 1870's. In 1888 the bridge was witness to a world first. The “Father of Cinematography”, Louis Le Prince, shot what is considered to be the world’s earliest moving pictures from the bridge. © It's No Game (cc-by-sa/2.0) Walk across Leeds Bridge and take a right along Dock Street. Dock Street began its life as a commercial entity in the 1800's. Then, during the Industrial Revolution, the canal network provided the catalyst for the city's growth. As its name suggests, boats used to dock along Dock Street. A deep dock allowed the loading and unloading of barges into warehouses. Today Dock Street still looks familiar, but the warehouses have become housing and business spaces. Converted and conserved in the 1980's. Continuing along Dock Street you will pass Centenary Bridge. This bridge was built in 1993 to celebrate 100 years since Leeds was granted city status. It also created better pedestrian access across the Aire. Dock Street c. 1930 By kind permission of Leeds Libraries, www.leodis.net Continue along Dock Street and you will come to Brewery Wharf.

The Institute of Hydrology's Quasar water quality model is examined as a possible basis to provide the underlying model structure. A solution based on combining the KW flow routing model equation, used within the RFFS, with the Quasar water quality equations is proposed. Incorporation of a new model within the RFFS is made straightforward through the adoption of a generic model algorithm interface in the original design of the RFFS's Information Control Algorithm, responsible for coordinating forecast construction in real-time. The task of developing a water quality Model Algorithm is pursued and significant progress made. Problems with the code structure of the pre-existing Quasar model are identified and work undertaken to create a "streamlined" version suitable for real-time use as an RFFS Model Algorithm. Work on the coding is sufficiently advanced to confirm the functional feasibility of extending RFFS to make water quality forecasts. The success of a water quality forecasting system depends, in addition to the modelling environment, on both the suitability of the model structure and the data available to support calibration and operational implementation.

  • PLANET YORKSHIRE Exhibition Guide - Please Return After Use
    peter mitchell PLANET YORKSHIRE exhibition guide - please return after use Keith, Sandra & the kids. Sunday 25 June 1978. Closing time. Portland Street, Sheffield. From the series Now You See Them Soon You Won’t, Graves Art Gallery, Sheffield, 1978. Following this exhibition Peter Mitchell resigned from his job and took a year out to concentrate on his photography, resulting in the groundbreaking 1979 exhibition A New Refutation of the Viking 4 Space Mission. A poster for the exhibition can be seen in display case no. 4. The caption from the A New Refutation of the Viking 4 Space Mission catalogue reads, “Keith and Sandra run a cosy pub. There was a pnucky postcard on the wall showing two well-endowed females having their foto taken. One girl says, “is he going to focus?” and her friend replies (looking horrified), “I hope not.” I thought it funny.” Scott, Dean, Neil & Gaudy the dog. Sunday 25 June 78. 2p.m. Westmorland Road, Sheffield. From the series Now You See Them Soon You Won’t, Graves Art Gallery, Sheffield, 1978. The caption from theA New Refutation of the Viking 4 Space Mission catalogue reads, “These aren’t the notorious Park Hill Flats but it is Scott, Dean and Neil (sounding remarkably like the V4 Space Mission Team), sitting outside Scott’s house.” The flats in the background are the Kelvin Flats, constructed in the Upperthrope area of Sheffield in 1967. These were a massive and radical housing development and, like the Quarry Hill Flats in Leeds (that formed the subject of one of Mitchell’s major bodies of work in the 1970s) enjoyed a strong community spirit despite its numerous social problems.

  • The Leeds & Liverpool Canal Historical Information
    The Leeds & Liverpool Canal Historical Information Construction and Maintainance 1 The cost of building the canal The details below were set out by the Leeds & Liverpool Canal Company to show investors how much the construction of one mile of canal would cost. They have not included the cost of building locks. It was more difficult to give an average price for a lock as this would depend upon the type of foundation work needed and the accessibility of stone or bricks for the lock walls. All materials had to be brought by horse drawn wagons along the poor 18th century roads. It was to simplify the transport of heavy goods, such as stone or coal, that canals were being built.

CORRECTIONS, GLITCHES, ERRORS and OMISSIONS are kept to a minimum but may still inevitably occur in a work of this nature. If you spot anything that you think needs attention, PLEASE DO SEND details of this to us ideally by email addressed to v.bradley[at]virgin.net www.irsociety.co.uk IRRNDX20.doc updated 22-Mar-2008 INTRODUCTION and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This “Combo Index” has been assembled by combining the contents of the sixteen separate indexes originally created, for each individual volume, over a period of some 45 years by a number of different people each using different technologies. Only in recent times have computers been used for indexing but, even for these, the computer files could not be traced with the exception of those for volumes 14 to 16. It has therefore been necessary to create digital versions of 13 original indexes using “Optical Character Recognition” (OCR), which has not proved easy due to the relatively poor print, and extremely small text (font) size, of some of the indexes in particular. Thus the OCR results have required extensive proof-reading. Very fortunately, a team of volunteers to assist in the project appeared out of the E-mail Group Internet Chat Site which is hosted by the IRS, and a special thankyou is certainly due to Richard Bowen, David Kitching, Martin Murray, Ken Scanes and John Scotford who each handled OCR and proofing of several indexes, to complete digital recovery of the individual published index texts for Volumes 1 to 13.
