The basic mechanism of a hovercraft is very simple : there's an engine(diesel or gasoline) that powers both a large central fan, pointing downward, and one or more other fans pointing backward. The central fan creates the lift that holds the craft above the waves; the other fans propel the craft backward, forward, or to the side. A rubber skirt(with or without fingers) traps a cushion of air under the craft.  2, record 1, English, - finger

When a piston in an engine is pushed up into its cylinder, the upward movement traps the mixture of air and fuel above it and compresses it to one-eighth or one-ninth of its original volume. This puts the molecules closer together, so they hit the piston head far more often. Thus, the pressure goes up.  3, record 2, English, - piston%20crown

[A] trap with an inlet channeled to the bottom of the trap body so the condensate enters underneath the inverted bucket[, and in which the] valve opens when the trap fills with condensate and discharges the condensate into the return line.  3, record 4, English, - inverted%20bucket%20trap

Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 CONT

The discharge from the inverted bucket trap is intermittent and requires a differential pressure between the inlet and discharge of the trap to lift the condensate from the bottom of the trap to the discharge connection. Bucket traps are used for draining condensate and air from blast coils, unit heaters and steam heating coils. Inverted bucket traps are well suited for draining condensate from steam lines or equipment where an abnormal amount of air is to be discharged and where dirt may drain into the trap.  4, record 4, English, - inverted%20bucket%20trap

Le purgeur à flotteur inversé […] fonctionne de façon identique [au purgeur à flotteur ouvert en seau]. Lorsque la vapeur arrive, elle s'accumule sous la cloche[,] qui se vide d'eau et s'élève, fermant le clapet de retenue, tandis que l'afflux de condensats fait redescendre le flotteur par son poids, ce qui libère le clapet. Il s'agit donc d'un fonctionnement par chasses successives. C'est un système assez délicat et sensible au gel.  4, record 4, French, - purgeur%20%C3%A0%20flotteur%20invers%C3%A9%20ouvert

Upright Bucket Trap. The discharge of condensate from this trap is intermittent. A differential pressure of at least 1 psi [pound per square inch] between the inlet and the outlet of the trap is normally required to lift the condensate from the bucket to the discharge connection. Upright bucket traps are commonly used to drain condensate and air from the blast coils, steam mains, unit heaters and other equipment. This trap is well suited for systems that have pulsating pressure.  3, record 5, English, - upright%20bucket%20trap

Thermostatic traps are the most common of all types used in two-pipe steam heating systems.... They are designed to open in response to pressure and temperature to discharge air and condensate and to close against the passage of steam.... Balanced pressure-type thermostatic traps are those which have been described. They employ thermal elements made from metal bellows, a series of diaphragms, or special cells made from diaphragms. There are some types that employ special shapes of bimetal for the thermal elements.  2, record 6, English, - balanced%20pressure%20thermostatic%20trap
