... a thermosyphon is a passive heat exchange system. This technology allows cold air to get beneath the foundation of a structure (like a building or a road embankment) and redistributes heat into the air, above the surface. If applied to the [Rideau Canal] Skateway, this technology would promote ice growth by cooling the water beneath the ice. 1, record 1, English, - thermosiphon

... thermosiphon is the physical phenomenon by which a fluid circulation is established in a closed circuit due to the density difference between the fluids at different temperatures. The thermosiphon principle is used in some solar thermal energy systems when the structure of the pipes allows it. 4, record 2, English, - thermosiphon

Phénomène de circulation d'un fluide lié aux différences de densité dues à des différences de température dans un circuit. 2, record 2, French, - thermosiphon
Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
Un thermosiphon est le phénomène de circulation naturelle d'un liquide dans une installation du fait de la variation de sa masse volumique en fonction de la température. Dans un circuit de chauffage en thermosiphon, le liquide caloporteur réchauffé dans le générateur thermique, plus léger, monte vers un échangeur situé en partie haute de l'installation pour céder ses calories à l'air ambiant. Le fluide caloporteur refroidi redescend naturellement vers le bas de l'installation pour être réchauffé par le générateur et recommencer le cycle en continu. 3, record 2, French, - thermosiphon
