Subject field(s)
  • Aeroindustry
CONT

The XB-25E was a standard production modified for anti-icing research. The carburetor air intake duct was faired internally into the top of the cowling and an anti-icing air intake was mounted at the bottom. Each row of cylinders exhausted through a separate exchanger, one ported outboard and one inboard of each nacelle. Ram air from the lower cowling duct was routed underneath the engine to a split duct, each side of which was directed to one of the heat exchangers. Air admitted to these heat exchangers was directed through a series of gates that allowed diversion of heated air either to the anti-icing system or out the exhaust. A complex system of ducting led the hot air to the outer wing leading edges and also into the fuselage and to the leading edges of the tail. It was intended that the temperature of the hot air would be sufficiently high that ice on the wing leading edges surfaces would be vaporized rather than melted, which would have prevented water from flowing aft and then freezing again on flaps and ailerons.

Record 3 2005-03-21

English

Subject field(s)
  • Heating
DEF

A type of space heating equipment that is a free-standing or a self-contained unit that generates and delivers heat to a local zone within the building; [it] may be permanently mounted in a wall or floor or may be portable.

CONT

Electric baseboard heaters are individual room heaters. They are available in varying lengths and are fastened to the wall near the floor.

OBS

Examples of individual space heaters include electric baseboards, electric radiant or quartz heaters, heating panels, gas-or kerosene-fired unit heaters, wood stoves, and infrared radiant heaters. These heaters are characterized by a lack of pipes or duct work for distributing hot water, steam, or warm air through a building.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Chauffage
DEF

Type d'équipement de chauffage autonome qui génère et répand de la chaleur dans une zone restreinte d'un bâtiment; [il] peut être fixé au mur ou au plancher en permanence ou peut être portatif.

CONT

Les appareils individuels [...] servent [soit] à chauffer différentes pièces d'un pavillon ou d'un appartement, soit [...] à chauffer certains locaux industriels [...] Ils peuvent aussi servir de chauffage d'appoint, ou de demi-saison [...]

CONT

L'appareil de chauffage autonome est destiné au chauffage direct d'une pièce, contrairement au générateur de chaleur ou à la chaudière du chauffage central qui fournit de la chaleur à l'ensemble de la maison grâce à un réseau de conduits ou de tuyaux.

CONT

[...] appareil de chauffage individuel : [...] feux ouverts et fermés encastrés et [...] poêles indépendants fonctionnant avec différents combustibles tels que le gaz naturel, le bois, le charbon et le mazout, qui peuvent servir de chauffage principal ou d'appoint.

OBS

Exemples de générateur individuel : plinthe électrique, radiateur électrique ou au quartz, panneau chauffant, aérotherme au gaz ou au kérosène, poêle à bois et radiateur à infrarouges.

CONT

The starter air shutoff valve incorporates a pneumatic heater tube which taps into the pneumatic duct system upstream of the butterfly valve. This provides a continuous flow of hot air on the valve body and switcher mechanism to prevent freezing or to thaw a frozen valve, when APU/engine operates. The pneumatic heater tube is removable for cleaning and to facilitate unblocking.
