Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1878 edition. Excerpt: ...directions and velocities. There are eight principal directions in which they blow: north, north-east, east, south-east, south, south-west, west, and north-west. Mariners further divide each of the distances between these eight directions into four others, making in all 32 directions, which are called points or rhumbs. A figure of these 32 rhumbs on a circle in the form of a star, is known as the mariners card. The direction of the wind is determined by means of vanes, and its velocity by means of the anemometer. There are several forms of this instrument; the most usual consists of a small vane with fans, which the wind turns; the velocity is deduced from the Fig. 234. number of turns made in a given time, which is measured by means of an endless screw and wheel-work. That most commonly used in this country and represented in fig. 234 is known as Robinson's anemometer. It consists of a metal cross with hemispheres at the ends, and fixed to an axis. The motion of this cross is transmitted by means of an endless screw to a train of wheelwork; and from the number of turns made in a given time, which is indicated by the pointers, the velocity of the wind is deduced. In our climate the mean velocity is from 18 to 20 feet in a second. With a velocity of 6 or 7 feet, the wind is moderate; with 30 or 35 feet, it is fresh; with 61 or 70 feet, it is strong; with a velocity of 85 to 90 feet, it is a tempest, and from 90 to 120 it is a hurricane. The velocity of a wind may, under appropriate circumstances, be measured by observing the time which the shadow of a cloud takes to pass over a field or any space the dimensions of which are known. 291. Causes of winds.--Winds are produced by the disturbance of the equilibrium in some part of the...
