About 10% of the total gland supply D2O flows between the various seal cavities via seal throttles (or breakdown cells) arranged in parallel with the seal faces. This results in a progressive lowering of D2O pressure in successive seal cavities.

CONT

Environ 10 % de l'écoulement de D2O total dans la garniture s'écoule entre les différentes cavités de joint par les régulateurs de joint disposés en parallèle par rapport aux faces des joints. Cela cause une baisse graduelle de la pression du D2O dans les cavités de joint.
