The total heat loss through the anode holder included also the heat conducted through the base of the cylindrical piece into the adjacent metal parts . (Harry H. Hull, "The Normal Forces and Their Ther...)Just as the pressure exerted by surface_tension in a spherical drop is * * f and the pressure exerted by surface_tension on a cylindrical shape is * * f , the pressure exerted by any curved surface is * * f , where g is the interfacial_tension and * * f and * * f are the two radii_of_curvature .
