DOWNSTREAM BLADE [3 records]

Record 1 2002-11-08

English

Subject field(s)
  • Printing Machines and Equipment
CONT

The wire runs over a breast roll under or adjacent to the headbox, over a series of tube or table rolls or more recently drainage blades, which maintain the working surface of the wire in a plane and aid water removal. The tubes or rolls create a vacuum on the downstream side of the nip. Similarly, the drainage blades create a vacuum on the downstream side where the wire leaves the blade surface, but also performs the function of a doctor blade on the upstream side.

Record 2 1994-01-05

English

Subject field(s)
  • Aeroindustry
  • Operations (Air Forces)
  • Helicopters (Military)
CONT

To complicate matters further, another adverse factor appears as soon as the helicopter flies in any given direction : the wing(or blade) which travels in the direction of the flight gets more lift than the one travelling downstream, inducing a roll motion to the machine, as well as vibrations from the load-unload cycle.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Constructions aéronautiques
  • Opérations (Forces aériennes)
  • Hélicoptères (Militaire)
CONT

Pour compliquer les choses, un autre facteur d'instabilité se manifeste dès que l'appareil se déplace, quelle que soit la direction de vol: la pale qui se déplace dans la direction du vol génère davantage de portance que la pale reculante parce qu'elle se déplace plus vite par rapport à l'air, d'où un mouvement de roulis et des vibrations cycliques.
