Les dispositifs de rappel mécanique sont soumis aux contraintes technologiques suivantes : non-linéarités (notamment hystérésis), limitant la précision de l'appareil, et fragilité, limitant la réduction du domaine de mesure (le domaine de mesure des gyromètres à rappel mécanique descend difficilement au-dessous de 20 degrés/s). Le rappel par asservissement électronique permet de se libérer de ces contraintes.

... the functional parts of a typical nozzle.... The flow rate, spray angle, and pattern are directly related to the design of the tangential slots swirl chamber and orifice. In operation, a source of energy is needed to break up the oil into small droplets. Therefore, pressure is supplied to the nozzle from the oil pump.... However, pressure energy alone is not enough to do the job. It must be converted to velocity energy. This is accomplished by directing the pressurized fuel through a set of slots. These slots are cut in the distributor at an angle, or tangentially, to produce a high velocity rotation within the swirl chamber. At this point, about half of the pressure energy is converted to velocity energy. 3, record 21, English, - tangential%20slot
