Compared to the sweptback wing, the advantage of the forward-swept wing of the same area are as follows : higher lift gradient and ratio; higher lift-to-drag and excess capacity ratios in dogfighting; increase in lift-to-drag ratio and range at subsonic speed; stall resistance(i. e. good anti-spin characteristics) ;better stability at high alpha; lesser allowable flight speed as well as shorter takeoff run and landing roll. 2, record 1, English, - forward%2Dswept%20wing%20aircraft

Free products and dissolved petroleum components from the surface of the contaminated aquifer are captured and treated via multi-phase extraction & treatment. Bioslurping induces a horizontal vacuum gradient on the targeted monitor/recovery wells through a slurp tube which is inserted into each well. Product and groundwater are entrained in droplet form in a high velocity air stream and brought to the surface for treatment. Following air/liquid separation the liquid phase is treated by a combination of oil/water separation, air stripping, and liquid phase carbon treatment before being discharged. The off-gas is treated(if necessary) by vapour phase carbon treatment. The advantages of multi-phase extraction & treatment include : a high product to groundwater extraction ratio; aeration of the vadose zone which enhances natural biodegradation of the hydrocarbon contaminants; all treatment components may be housed in a turn-key mobile remedial unit; a simple product recovery technology which can be transferred to conventional remedial applications such as pump and treat, sparging and vapour extraction system(VES) applications.

The rate of change of altitude per unit of distance in the water table at a given place and in a given direction. If the direction is not mentioned, it is generally understood to be the direction along which the maximum rate of change occurs. Where the rate of change is uniform between two points, the gradient is equal to the ratio of the difference of altitude between the two points to the horizontal distance between them. 2, record 11, English, - water%2Dtable%20gradient
