Albert Hall (engineer)

Albert Hall born Portsmouth (1878 – 11 February 1941) was an English engineer and inventor, notable for his contribution to improvements in electricity generation and the development of radio and early radar.

[1] Dr Ferranti was convinced that the future prime mover for electricity generation would be through a turbine engine employing very high temperatures.

[5] In 1919 after the war, he returned to Ferranti and also remained in a consulting capacity to Lord Chetwynd and as a technical adviser to the British Mannesmann Tube company.

His knowledge of operational calculus was well suited to dealing with the mathematical equations encountered in that field and allowed him to make the transition into Radio.

[8][9][10][11][12][13][14] In order to augment the sales of components to the amateur home constructor, Hall wrote a book[15] that covered mathematical formula, radio-frequency amplification, loud speakers, power supplies and included many practical suggestions.
