As they fall in a drop tube, the droplets would then cool primarily by radiating heat so that they would solidify from the outside inward. As the metal cools, much of the dissolved gas would come out of solution and move toward the hotter region at the center of a droplet, where it would form a bubble. 1, record 2, English, - drop%20tube

Dans d’autres appareils à charbon pulvérisé, le combustible est projeté dans le courant gazeux, à fort excès d’air, qui s’élève au-dessus d’une petite grille, ou bien mis en suspension dans l'air également, au-dessus d’une grille(combustion en lit fluidisé). Ils sont d’autre part les foyers-cyclones, dans lesquels les grains de combustible sont entraînés par un mouvement giratoire très rapide, avec l'air de combustion fortement chauffé, dans une capacité cylindrique au tronconique de dimensions relativement faibles, brûlant à la surface du lit de scories en fusion qui tapissent cette capacité; les scories s’écoulent à l'état liquide au fond de la chambre secondaire, dans laquelle s’achève la combustion des gaz. 1, record 3, French, - foyer%2Dcyclone

Pulverized coal Systems: These are of two general types: 1) the direct-fired, or unit, system and 2) the storage, or bin, system. In the direct-fired system, raw coal is fed directly to a pulverizer where it is pulverized, mixed with air, and blown to the burner. In the storage system, coal is delivered to a raw-fuel bin and then passed to a pulverizer where it is reduced to a powder and dried for storage in a pulverized fuel bin before delivery to the furnace. 3, record 4, English, - pulverizer
