/smiː/

Etymology: < the name of Alfred Smee (1818–77), English surgeon and experimenter.

Used attributively and in the possessive to designate an obsolete type of primary cell or battery invented by Smee ( Phil. Mag. (1840) 16 315), consisting of zinc and platinum (or platinized silver) electrodes in dilute sulphuric acid.

1852 F. S. Williams Our Iron Roads 314 Great inconvenience arose from the spilling of the acid solution used in Smee's batteries.

1873 F. Jenkin Electr. & Magn. xv. 215 The Smee battery is better than the copper zinc battery.

1878 Encycl. Brit. VIII. 93/1 (note) Smee's cell.

1950 G. W. Vinal Primary Batteries i. 16 Smee's cell of 1840 avoided..the difficulty experienced with polarization in other single-fluid batteries.

1950 G. W. Vinal Primary Batteries i. 16 The electromotive force of the Smee cell was low, about 0·5 volt, which was its principal disadvantage.
