  • Abstract
    TWENTY YEARS AGO the programs of many engineering meetings included papers on air conditioning. Air conditioning was ¿billed¿ as the business which would pull the country out of the depression. Today the heat pump appears with almost equal frequency in the discussions of technical societies. The claims made for it are more realistic than were those for air conditioning.
