Blériot's flexible radiating device

consists of a sheet of aluminum closely covered on one side with hollow brass rings, which are joined together in rows by short lengths of flexible rubber tubing. The cooling water circulates through these rings from one to the other and is collected by the usual pipes communicating with the pump and the engine water-jacket respectively.
