Le type le plus simple et le plus répandu de bec à mélange préalable est le brûleur Bunsen. Le gaz combustible aspire, par des orifices réglables à l'aide d'une bague qui les obture plus ou moins, l'air de combustion, avec lequel il se mélange dans une buse. L'ensemble est allumé à l'extrémité de celle-ci, et la flamme s'y fixe, si la vitesse du courant gazeux n'est ni trop faible ni trop forte. Si cette vitesse était trop faible, la flamme brûlerait à l'intérieur du bec; si elle était trop forte, la flamme s'éteindrait, le gaz s'écoulant plus vite qu'il ne brûle. 4, record 2, French, - bec%20Bunsen

An orifice meter is an inferential meter in which the fluid velocity and flowrate are inferred from the pressure drop occurring through the known area of an orifice plate. Specifically, orifice meter flow is calculated from the flowing gas pressure and temperature, differential pressure drop occurring across the restriction of the meter's orifice plate, the meter geometry including the meter tube's inside diameter and orifice plate bore, and the gas composition. 5, record 3, English, - orifice%20meter

The plasma-keyhole method is a welding process where the gas flow is restricted through a reduction of the gas orifice. This increases the gas velocity and the arc temperature. Severe constriction of the gas flow produces a cutting arc, which is utilised in plasma arc cutting(PAC). The plasma arc blows a hole through the joint of the plate. Behind the hole the molten metal flows together filling the hole, due to the gravity forces, surface tension and the gas pressure from the shielding gas. 1, record 9, English, - plasma%2Dkeyhole%20welding%20process

A gas burner in which the actual combustion begins in a refractory tunnel or tuyere block. It is a relatively high capacity partial-premix type of gun burner, which uses the kinetic energy of the gas stream issuing from the orifice to bring in at least part of the air required for combustion. A wide range of control of flame characteristics is obtained by adjustment of the primary air, thus causing combustion to be delayed until secondary air can reach the air-fuel mixture. 1, record 12, English, - tunnel%20burner

Brûleur à «tunnel de flamme». C'est un appareil de conception anglaise spécialement étudié pour l'équipement des fours industriels [...] mais il pourrait tout aussi bien être placé sur des générateurs de vapeur ou sur des chaudières de chauffage central [...] Compte tenu du fait qu'une grande partie de la combustion se produit dans la préchambre C (environ 40 %), il est facile de calculer que son «intensité» correspond à près de 1 000 kg/h. m³ [...] La flamme sortant de C à environ 40 m/s est courte, extrêmement dure et généralement bleue; [...] 2, record 12, French, - br%C3%BBleur%20tunnel

Burners of the atmospheric type are most frequently made up of a multiple of tubes or burners, each with a Venturi, gas orifice, and burner heads. These burners are of inshot or upshot design... upshot burners are arranged vertically, making them more adaptable in firebox-type boilers. 2, record 13, English, - upshot%20burner

Brûleurs produisant une flamme verticale. Dans la quasi-totalité des applications (au moins 95 %) l'axe du pulvérisateur doit être horizontal, ce qui a pour conséquence de donner naissance à une flamme plus ou moins allongée dont on peut modifier la longueur en utilisant les divers artifices que nous connaissons [...] Si nous plaçons le pulvérisateur verticalement, deux cas sont à considérer selon que le jet de particules combustibles est dirigé vers le haut (pulvérisateur en source) ou vers le bas (pulvérisateur en voûte). 2, record 13, French, - br%C3%BBleur%20%C3%A0%20flamme%20verticale

An injection port is necessary in all g. c. [gas chromatography] and h. p. l. c. [high-performance liquid chromatography] systems in which syringe injection is employed. The injection port joins the top of the column to the mobile phase supply line, and has a third outlet through a small orifice covered by a self-sealing septum. Injection of samples is done by inserting the hypodermic syringe containing the sample through this septum so that the point of the needle is immediately above the head of the column. Design of the injection port must be such that it can be maintained at a uniform temperature and will possess a very small dead volume. 4, record 15, English, - injection%20port

Chambre d'injection pour liquides ou solutions. C'est le système le plus utilisé [...] le gaz porteur, de préférence préchauffé, entre dans une chambre chauffée, obturée par une pastille d'élastomère, le septum, qui assure l'étanchéité. À l'aide d'une seringue hypodermique de petite capacité, on pique au travers de la membrane, de telle manière que l'extrémité de l'aiguille arrive au-dessous du niveau de l'arrivée du gaz porteur, puis on pousse le piston pour réaliser l'injection. La condition demandée à la chambre d'injection est d'avoir un volume interne aussi petit que possible, pour limiter les volumes morts de l'appareil. Pour assurer la vaporisation instantanée de l'échantillon, l'injecteur est habituellement maintenu à une température au moins 30 °C plus élevée que celle du four contenant la colonne. 4, record 15, French, - chambre%20d%27injection

Orifice Scrubbers. In orifice-type scrubbers(Figure 15), particle-liquid contact is obtained through the effects of the carrier gas velocity and, therefore, performance depends on the flow rate of the gas. Both efficiency and pressure drop vary with carrier gas flow rate, with the normal pressure drop ranging from 2-6 in. of water. 1, record 18, English, - orifice%20scrubber
