After completing her bachelor\u2019s degree, Beatrice stayed on to study for her Master\u2019s in Mechanical Engineering, and in 1936 she began work at the Royal Aircraft Establishment (RAE).<\/p>\n<p>It was while at the RAE that Beatrice and her colleagues were called upon to come up with a solution to a problem experienced by RAF pilots fighting the Luftwaffe. During dogfights, when the Spitfires or Hurricanes used by the RAF pilots were pitched into a hard nosedive, the negative g-force would flood the carburettor of the aircraft\u2019s engine. This caused the engine to stall.<\/p>\n<p>German aircraft did not suffer the same problem due to their modern fuel-injection engines. It was therefore possible for them to evade RAF pilots by pulling these negative g manoeuvres. A solution was needed \u2013 and fast.<\/p>\n<h2>\u2018Miss Shilling\u2019s orifice\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>And it was Beatrice who came up with one. She invented the \u2018RAE restrictor\u2019, also known as \u2018Miss Shilling\u2019s orifice\u2019, which was simply a small, circular metal disc with a hole in the middle that could be fitted into the engine\u2019s carburettor. This little disc helped limit the flow of fuel, which stopped the engine from flooding when the plane was sent into a nosedive.<\/p>\n<p>Miss Shilling\u2019s orifice was a success, but Beatrice and her team continued to work on the project to come up with a more long-term solution, which ultimately resulted in the RAE Hobson injection carburettor. In 1947, Beatrice was honoured with an OBE for her work during World War II.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_390\" aria-labelledby=\"figcaption_attachment_390\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" ><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-390 size-uom-post-size\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mub.eps.manchester.ac.uk\/science-engineering\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/59\/2017\/06\/ANationofInventors-7683-800x500.jpg\" alt=\"Dr Christine Twigg and Professor Danielle George investigate Beatrice Shilling's time at The University of Manchester in a BBC documentary.\" width=\"768\" height=\"480\" \/><figcaption id=\"figcaption_attachment_390\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Dr Christine Twigg and Professor Danielle George investigate Beatrice Shilling&#8217;s time at The University of Manchester in a BBC documentary.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>During her down time, Beatrice raced motorcycles \u2013 not a typical pursuit for women in the 1930s and 40s. Dr Christine Twigg, from the Faculty of Science and Engineering\u2019s communications team, is herself a biker \u2013 as well as a Beatrice Shilling expert. She arrived in style on her Harley Davidson to chat more about Shilling to Professor George for the new documentary \u2013 and made quite an entrance into the Quad (as you\u2019ll see from our photos).<\/p>\n<p>Beatrice won\u2019t be the only inventor Danielle George explores in the episode. Other luminaries from the North West to feature are the inventors George Garrett and John B Dancer. Garrett was a pioneer of submarine design, while Dancer invented microphotography \u2013 a process that was initially regarded as a novelty but soon became an instrumental part of espionage.<\/p>\n<p><em>Invented In The North West<\/em> is part of a national series called <em>Invented In England<\/em>.
