Just realize, however, that the 100 pounds of water pressure carried by the hose represents an energy of this amount exerted on every square inch of the inner surface, and that this is an outward | pressure which is confined only by the strength of the hose. You know that, even though you may weigh 200 pounds, you can step on that hard hose with the toe of one shoe without flattening it or cutting off the pressure at the business end—and yet your concentrated weight | per square inch is greater than is that of }one wheel of a two-ton touring Your instinct, if not your education, you that it will require a downward weight in excess of 100 pounds per square inch to begin to flatten that hose, for it is only then that the inside pressure, which is striving to burst the hose, will be balanced. No your touring car is equipped with 4N tires which are filled with air that is striving to get out almost as much as is | the water in the hose. That air is push- }ing against the tread and side walls of your tire with exactly the same force per Square inch as the pressure to which you pumped it. But the heaviest ‘car does not carry over seventy or eighty pounds of air pressure per square inch, i y square inch column of air in the tire is either holding up a car weight or exerting an outward pressure of this seventy or eighty pounds. Therefore, when you drive your car over the hose, it does not weigh ‘any more per which you are carrying in long as the pressure in the tires is le s than the pressure in the hose, is it not very ap- 26 ‘T—Conducted by H.

Please remember The Fire Hose and Tires parent that the hose cannot flatten or be effected in the least by this downward weight which does not tend even to offset the opposite pressure in the hos In fact, the bursting pressure at the point of contact of your tires with the hose is reduced under these conditions, and if a similar outside pressure could be applied to all exterior points of the hose, the tendency to burst would be almost eliminated. Suppose, for mple, you run your fire hose containing 100 pounds pressure of water through an i tank which contains a pressure of ninety pounds per square inch. This pressure is exerted against the outside of the hose and reduces the actual strain against the inside walls of the hose to ten pounds. E miGut liken this effect to the re- sults of mountain climbing in rarefied Our heart exerts a certain internal pressure on our veins and arteries. The air exerts an external pressure. When we ch altitudes in which the air pressure . the strain on the air. ire has remained prac This, therefore, leaves inside force not sufficiently counter balanced by an adequate outside force, and thus causes the blood vessels to rup- The effect on a man working in r pressures, such as tunnel boring and the like, is the reverse; for here the outside pressure of the air is greater than the pressure developed by the heart and a collapse or flattening of the blood vessels and arteries takes place. So it is with deep sea divers working under conditions in which the external water pressure so far exceeds the in- ternal pressure of the blood that the heart is overtaxed in the endeavor to maintain its normal flow. HESE conditions of high pressure at- mosphere and deep sea diving are analogous to the effect on the fire hose only if a car carrying an inflation pres- sure greater than the 100 pounds of water pressure is driven over the hose itself. Such conditions would be very unusual, however, for no manufacturer recom- mends any passenger car tire to be carried at a greater pressure than eighty pounds and this only in the five-inch size when used with the heav type of closed passenger cars. However, while all of this contention may be in accordance with the laws of (Continued on page 31)
