Rotor winds are associated with mountainous terrain and strong winds aloft. Mountain flights should anticipate rotor winds, and in particular, when wind aloft forecasts exceed 15 knots at mountain peak altitude.... Surprisingly, rotor winds can be completely free of turbulence; however, this is not always true.  4, record 2, English, - rotor%20wind

When strong winds of 40 to 50 miles per hour are blowing perpendicular to a mountain range, expect mountain waves and strong downdrafts for many miles on the leeward side. The presence of mountain waves can be identified by lenticular (lens shaped) clouds on the downwind side of the mountains. Rotor winds are also associated with this wind condition. These are strong winds rotating in a wheel like fashion on the immediate leeward side of mountains.  5, record 2, English, - rotor%20wind

Heat transfer coefficients are shown as functions of downstream and transverse plate coordinates as determined experimentally for different blowing ratios near one and for levels of free stream turbulence from 1 percent to 17 percent of the free stream velocity. Heat transfer between the plate and the free stream is reduced by the film cooling at higher levels of free stream turbulence. Heat transfer is increased on the plate in the region between the film cooling jets at all levels of blowing ratio for one percent free stream turbulence. This undesirable augmentation of the heat transfer is modeled analytically and related to the axial vortices generated near the film cooling jet inlets. The strength of these vortices and the subsequent heat transfer increases are related to the blowing ration.  1, record 3, English, - film%20cooling

The "Index-grain apparatus"(...) is a sedimentation device in which the free fall of grains is slowed by three nozzle-like constrictions which cause turbulence that results in better grading of the grains. In order to distinguish between the single grain fractions which settle in a graduated, conical, water-filled sedimentation vessel, a colored index set of three known grain fractions is added to the sediment before separation : 1 cm^three black grains in the grade 0. 02-0. 035 mm 1 cm^three red grains in the grade 0. 063-0. 11 mm 1 cm^three black grains in the grade 0. 2-0. 35 mm(...) The suspension with the added index set is poured into the filling tube, which is closed from below with a float stopper. The stopper is opened by squeezing a rubber bulb on the filling tube, and the suspension can immediately enter the lower sedimentation tube. The filling tube has a constriction that generates turbulence. The grains therefore enter the sedimentation tube pregraded. By multiplying the percentage volumes of the individual grades(minus the added colored index grains of each grade) by the average bulk density [(gamma]=1. 56), the weight-percentages of the individual grades are calculated on the basis of 100% dry material.  1, record 5, English, - Index%2Dgrain%20apparatus

Cet appareil, d'un type très spécial, a été conçu par un ingénieur allemand, "M. Spoerel". Sept centimètres cubes du sable à étudier sont mélangés à une poudre de grains de quartz colorés comprenant: 1 cm [cube] de grains noirs de 0,5-0,2 mm; 1 cm [cube] de grains rouges de 0,1-0,055 mm; 1 cm [cube] de grains noirs de 0,045-0,020mm. L'ensemble est mis en sédimentation dans un tube présentant des étranglements; le matériel, classé par tailles, se rassemble dans un tube gradué, oû l'on peut faire aisément la lecture des pourcentages grâce aux grains colorés (en retirant naturellement les 3 cm [cube] de sable comparateur introduit). Cet appareil présente de notables inconvénients, le principal étant la tension superficielle créée par le colorant à base d'aniline à la surface des grains de sable comparateurs.  1, record 5, French, - appareil%20%C3%A0%20grains%20color%C3%A9s%20comparateurs
