Grain filling, the stage of development during which dry matter is deposited in the grain, is initiated shortly after anthesis. The amount of dry matter deposited into the grain is influenced by both the rate and duration of grain filling, which in turn can be influenced by both genotype and environment. 2, record 1, English, - grain%20filling

Ballistite is a double-base powder used as a rocket propellant. It is composed of two explosive substances, nitrocellulose and nitroglycerin, blended together with diphenylamine, which acts as a stabilizer. It burns with a considerable amount of flash and smoke, and generates a great volume of gas. Ballistite burns progressively, but at a rate dependent upon the composition and physical characteristics of the powder grain, the temperature of the powder grain before ignition, and the pressure during reaction. It is produced in various shapes to fit the rocket motor housing. 2, record 8, English, - ballistite

A sparge arm is another worthwhile brewery option. Although it does not actually save time, it does decrease the amount of effort you must spend pouring sparge water into the lauter tun. A sparge arm can be purchased ready-made, improvised from a shower head, or fabricated at home. One simple design is a perforated copper loop that lies on top of the grain in the lauter tun. It is connected to the hot liquor tank by food-grade tubing, and you control the flow of water from the hot liquor tank using a ball valve. Water is run through the copper loop onto the grain bed at a rate about equal to the rate of wort leaving the tun. 2, record 9, English, - rotating%20arm

Service time is the time the ship is at the unloading berth being unloaded or serviced. Obviously it depends on the ship unloader(s) being used. Ship unloaders for grain are designed and specified for a particular unloading rate expressed in tonnes per hour. But in reality, the average unloading rate is very much lower than rated unloading capacity and, in part, is a function of ship size.

Grain lourd ou grain léger : les taux d'affrètement sont ordinairement établis à tant par tonne de grain transporté. A volume égal, un navire peut évidemment prendre à son bord un tonnage supérieur de grains "lourds" de densité élevée (blé, maïs, seigle ou soja) que de grains "légers" de faible densité (orge, avoine, lin ou canola). Par conséquent, le revenu de l'armateur pourrait dépendre du type de grain transporté. Les conditions de la charte-partie stipulent la sorte de grain du chargement, grain "lourd" ou grain "léger", avec leurs taux respectifs. Ces derniers prévoient une prime, qui peut varier selon la destination du chargement, pour le transport de grains "légers". (Quoique le soja soit considéré comme grain "lourd", il est généralement spécifié). Les primes servent à compenser le tonnage inférieur de grain de faible densité qui peut être chargé sur un navire. 1, record 13, French, - grains%20lourds%20de%20densit%C3%A9%20%C3%A9lev%C3%A9e
