Record 2 2011-07-29

English

Subject field(s)
  • Climate Change
  • Climatology
CONT

TEWI is the sum of the direct(chemical) and indirect(energy) emissions of greenhouse gases from the operation or use of a CFC or fluorocarbon system for its useful life.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Changements climatiques
  • Climatologie
DEF

Somme des effets directs et indirects des émissions de gaz à effet de serre sur toute la durée de vie d'un équipement donné.

Spanish

Campo(s) temático(s)
  • Cambio climático
  • Climatología
CONT

Para valorar además el efecto calentamiento hay que valorar otro efecto indirecto derivado del consumo de energía con liberación de CO2, tanto si es de origen térmico como eléctrico. La combinación de ambos efectos directo e indirecto, se conoce como TEWI (efecto de calentamiento total equivalente).

OBS

TEWI por sus siglas en inglés.

Record 3 2004-12-10

English

Subject field(s)
  • Engines (Motor Vehicles)
OBS

Direct injection(DI) refers to fuel injected directly into the combustion chamber above the piston. Direct injection has long been used on large diesel engines. Smaller diesels are increasingly adopting direct injection(vs. indirect injection into a pre-chamber). Direct injection also can be used in spark ignition(generally gasoline) engines instead of port fuel injection-for cleaner emissions, increased full throttle power and potentially for lean-burn operation.

Key term(s)
  • direct-injection engine

French

Domaine(s)
  • Moteur (Véhicules automobiles)
DEF

Moteur à combustion interne dans lequel le carburant est injecté sous pression directement dans la chambre de combustion.

OBS

À noter que les moteurs à injection directe peuvent utiliser du diesel ou de l'essence.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Programmes et programmation (Informatique)
DEF

Instruction qui contient l'adresse indirecte d'un opérande de l'opération spécifiée par cette instruction.

OBS

instruction à adresse indirecte : Terme normalisé par l'ISO et l'ISO/CEI et uniformisé par le CNGI; terme et définition normalisés par l'AFNOR.

OBS

instruction indirecte : Terme normalisé par l'ISO/CEI.

Record 6 1990-01-16

English

Subject field(s)
  • Biological Sciences
CONT

The water activity exerts a strong influence on enzyme activity and stability. This phenomenon must be fully appreciated in order to analyze the effect of a compound on enzyme efficiency, and so as not to misinterpret as direct an indirect effect caused by a modification of water activity. Furthermore, from a technological viewpoint, a better understanding of this phenomenon may allow rationalization of the operation of enzyme catalysts and their improved efficiency.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sciences biologiques
CONT

L'efficacité enzymatique est étonnante : ce type de catalyse multiplie par un facteur compris en général entre 106 et 1010 la vitesse d'une réaction, ce qui est énorme. Au niveau moléculaire, le problème est de savoir grâce à quels phénomènes intimes l'obtention de telles accélérations est possible. Quatre mécanismes principaux méritent d'être évoqués : les effets de positionnement et de proximité, la catalyse covalente, la catalyse acide-base, les contraintes conformationnelles.
