  • Abstract
    The object of this article is (a) To describe an installation of electric heating of a cotton weave shed. (b) To test the excellency of methods of estimating quantity of heat required for buildings of this kind. (c) To derive a parity between the cost per kw-hr. and a ton of coal for heating in climates where the average winter temperatures are about 22 deg. and 48 deg. respectively. (d) To determine under what conditions electric heating in a textile mill may be used.
