OTHING could be more woriy than the Queen's Silver, Jbilee competition organised inually by the Institution of lechanical Engineers to encouige engineers to express them:Ives "adequately". Subjects 'e presented orally and are ilistrated by slides, drawings, hotographs or models.
Two of this year's finalists fere concerned with motorldustry topics but failed to win
n award. One dealt with "the Jture use of existing glassainforced plastics technology :y specialist low-volume motor ehicle manufacturers" and the :ther with -the design of Getter pplicator for a stop/tail lamp iroduction line".
The first prize of £200 went o P. J. Winstone of Durham Jniversity, for a presentation on nicroprocessor control of a fomestic central-heating boiler. t was the runner-up, however, vho excited my special admiraion and won £100. He was N. T. Tibbitt, of Bristol Univer;ity.
Anyone who can express iimself intelligibly on 'Peripheral variation of the onvection heat transfer co:fficient for a circular cylinder in owed air flow at sub-critical Reynolds Numbers" deserves :he Order of Merit. He must be n great demand for Women's Institute meetings, too.
