This was a kind of heat pro- duction no-one had seen before—previously, heat had only come from either chemical combustion, or friction, or radiation. Up to then most scientists believed in the calor-

The cable was destroyed when Dr. Whitehouse applied too high a voltage through it, and he [...] electri- cal motor. During the following years, the subject of Joule's research was the production heat either by voltaic electricity, in batteries or in chemical com- bustion; these investigations were quantitative [...] London) pp 361 - 363.
