Yet, Joule himself did not start from scratch and par- ticularly referred to the work of Benjamin Thomp- son, Count Rumford, who carried [...] distance.

The experimenter increases the distance between the stronger heat source and the thermoscope [...] efficient way to insulate the human body. To summarize, Rumford can in retrospect be identified as a starting point for various develop- ment in the energy science – he carried out exper- iments that were related
