Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT
pompe à émulsion d'air : Une telle pompe se compose essentiellement d'une conduite dont l'extrémité inférieure est immergée dans un réservoir, et d'une autre conduite introduisant de l'air comprimé à proximité de l'extrémité immergée de la première conduite. L'air comprimé qui se mélange au liquide dans la conduite immergée forme un ensemble plus léger que le liquide, il se crée donc une poussée ascendante sur le fluide ainsi allégé. 4, record 1, French, - pompe%20%C3%A0%20%C3%A9mulsion%20d%27air
