Based on what is known about behavior of clusters under cold conditions 
it is doubtful that any modification to the cavity would change the 
temperatures inside the cluster at a given ambient temperature.  The 
cluster is sensing the temperature surrounding it and adjusting 
insulation and heat production accordingly.  If one does not know the 
position of the bees inside a cavity, any inferences on how the bees 
are adjusting these variables is likely to lead to incorrect 
conclusions.
