Les métamorphoses de la neige sèche. [...] Pendant ou après une chute de neige, le vent casse les parties fragiles des cristaux. Il transforme donc les cristaux de neige fraîche en particules reconnaissables, voire en grains fins. [...] Le devenir des particules reconnaissables va dépendre de la valeur du gradient de température de la couche concernée : - par faible gradient, elles vont se transformer en grains fins; - par moyen gradient, elles vont se transformer en grains à faces planes; - par fort gradient, elles se transformeront en grains à faces planes (passage intermédiaire obligé) puis en gobelets. Ces transformations sont irréversibles : il n'y a pas de retour en arrière possible. 3, record 3, French, - m%C3%A9tamorphose%20de%20moyen%20gradient

A rotary dryer consists of a cylinder slightly inclined to the horizontal and rotated on suitable bearings. The rotary action of the cylinder serves to convey wet material from one end to the other while passing hot gases axially through the dryer shell. The contact of the solids and gases is further improved by means of flights arranged within the dryer shell so as to shower the wet material through the hot gas stream. 1, record 5, English, - direct%20rotary%20dryer

Le SIGDERS, ou Groupe d'intérêt spécial pour l'évaluation dynamique des systèmes de couverture, vient tout juste de terminer la première phase d'une étude portant sur les effets du vent sur les systèmes de couverture monocouches [...] La phase 1 des travaux de recherche du consortium (1994-1997) a donc été consacrée à la construction d'une installation pour l'évaluation dynamique des couvertures à l'IRC. Cette installation, qui mesure 6,1 m sur 2,2 m, est constituée d'un cadre surmonté d'une enceinte sur laquelle est installé le système de couverture mis à l'essai. Le cadre est réglable, ce qui permet d'étudier des systèmes de couverture de pente variable intégrant des éléments de construction et des épaisseurs d'isolant variés. L'enceinte supérieure est équipée d'un simulateur de rafales et d'un ventilateur d'extraction pour simuler les effets dynamiques du vent. 3, record 6, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20de%20couverture
