The experiment does not involve circuital charge motion. From Wordnik.com. [Chapter 4] Reference
Heaviside wrestled with this G-vector, but dismissed it as an unnecessary and useless introduction of an auxiliary circuital flux. From Wordnik.com. [Chapter 4] Reference
Of interest in EM theory is the appearance of closed circuital fluxes of EM energy in a region, which has bothered a very great number of physicists and electrical engineers including Maxwell and Heaviside. From Wordnik.com. [Chapter 4] Reference
The Trouton-Noble experiment did not work because it assumed the Lorentz force law applies to non-circuital charge motion, whereas it is empirically based on effects that demand such a circuital charge motion. From Wordnik.com. [Chapter 4] Reference
We have the "simple" fields predicted by the 1st of Maxwell's equations, otherwise known as The Divergence Theorem and then complex time-varying fields such as those associated with Maxwell's 4th equation (Ampere's circuital law) which predicts the radio waves Hertz became famous for and things like Bremsstrahlung.

If this view is correct, then Heaviside (and other electrical physicists, subsequently) may again have discarded one part of electrogravitation - because, after all, in modern general relativity, gravitation primarily consists of a number of potentials, trapped energy density of vacuum constitutes a curvature of space-time, and closed circuital fluxes of EM energy represent dynamic internal energy-density structures.
