I lost the 6th book in the r series. After 2 months I finally found it…

Man I don’t care about the 6/9 book problem but your books in chronological order

Radiators from the 1950s were common in homes and buildings for heating purposes, using a straightforward yet effective system based on the principles of heat transfer. These radiators were typically part of a central heating system, which relied on a boiler, pipes, and radiators to distribute heat throughout a building. Here’s a detailed explanation of how they worked:

1. The Basic Components of a 1950s Radiator System

A radiator heating system from the 1950s included the following main components:

a. Boiler
• The boiler was the heart of the system, typically located in a basement or utility area.
• It burned fuel (usually coal, oil, or natural gas) to heat water or produce steam.

b. Pipes
• Pipes carried either hot water or steam from the boiler to the radiators and returned cooler water or condensed steam back to the boiler for reheating.
• These pipes were usually made of steel or cast iron.

c. Radiators
• Radiators were large, heavy units made of cast iron, designed to transfer heat from the water or steam inside to the surrounding air.
• They were often placed near windows or exterior walls to counteract heat loss.

d. Expansion Tank
• For hot water systems, an expansion tank was included to accommodate the thermal expansion of water as it heated up.
• This prevented excessive pressure in the system.

2. Types of Radiators

1950s radiators typically came in two main types, depending on the heating medium:

a. Steam Radiators
• Steam radiators used steam generated by the boiler.
• The steam traveled through pipes to the radiators, where it condensed back into water as it released heat.
• The condensed water (condensate) returned to the boiler through a separate pipe or via gravity in one-pipe systems.

b. Hot Water Radiators
• Hot water radiators circulated heated water instead of steam.
• The water flowed into the radiator, transferred heat to the air, and returned to the boiler to be reheated.
• These systems were generally quieter and more consistent than steam systems.

3. How Heat Was Transferred

The radiator worked by transferring heat in three ways

I love changing races after I leave highschool.

2nd one changing skin color and gaining a lot of plastic

I looked at that for 30 seconds to long before I got it 😂

As an adult woman the first one is the best because that’s the “it’s a lazy day, I don’t have to be any where so who cares” look

Don’t get enough of those days anymore

They were confused because 7 ate 9 and 6 was just trying to fill in so people wouldn’t feel the loss…

The fact that the original meme on the bottom is reversed I don't care about it's the fact that in the original the "smarter" she becomes the whiter

Anyone else like the first one better on the bottom?

You should read them instead of just trying to look smart
