"Coil tube boiler" means a boiler with one or more tubes which may be in the form of a coil or other configuration in which the water flow is of a once-through pattern without a fixed water level, the circulation of water is forced by means of a water pump, the ratio of water content expressed in litres to the evaporation rate expressed in kilowatts is not greater than 0. 1 when the boiler is operating, and a pre-purge flame failure device is installed;... 1, record 1, English, - coil%20tube%20boiler

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The vortex circulation is outward, upward and around the wing tips when viewed from either ahead or behind the aircraft. Tests with large aircraft have shown that the vortices remain spaced a bit less than a wingspan apart, drifting with the wind, at altitudes greater than a wingspan from the ground. In view of this, if persistent vortex turbulence is encountered, a slight change of altitude and lateral position(preferably upwind) will provide a flight path clear of the turbulence. 3, record 2, English, - vortex%20turbulence

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 OBS
tourbillon en bout d'aile; tourbillon d'extrémité d'aile : Courant d'air circulaire créé par le déplacement d'un profil générateur de portance. Lorsqu'un tel profil est déplacé de façon continue dans l'atmosphère, une zone de haute pression se crée à l'intrados et une autre de basse pression se crée sur l'extrados. L'air qui circule autour des ailes, de la zone de haute pression vers celle de basse pression, a tendance à former deux tourbillons cylindriques en rotation rapide. Ces tourbillons produisent la majeure partie de la turbulence de sillage d'un aéronef. La force de rotation de ces tourbillons dépend de la charge alaire, de la masse brute et de la vitesse de l'aéronef. Les tourbillons provoqués par les aéronefs moyens et lourds peuvent avoir de très grande vitesse et mettre en danger les aéronefs plus petits. 4, record 2, French, - turbulence%20cr%C3%A9%C3%A9e%20par%20les%20tourbillons
