Pyramid fire. This is the best of all campfires. Three or four logs about 3 ft. to 5 ft. long are laid side by side and across them another layer with, if you desire it, a third layer on top of these. On top of the top layer the starting fire is laid. This is built up finally like a small pyramid. This type of fire is lit at the top. the starter fire ignites the logs below with falling coals and so this fire burns down-wards. It radiates heat evenly all round, and requires no attention during the night. Also, because there is no falling in of the fire the risk of sparks spreading and starting a bushfire is greatly minimised. 1, record 9, English, - pyramid%20fire

Feu en pyramide. C'est le meilleur des feux de camp car il chauffe bien surtout s’il est muni de réflecteurs. Il peut durer toute une nuit et assure une combustion presque parfaite des bûches sans entretien du foyer. Il peut mesurer jusqu'à 1, 5 m de côté s’il doit chauffer un gros appentis ou être le centre d’une veillée hivernale.-Faites un premier lit de bûches à braises fixé par des pierres si le sol est pentu, sur un tapis de branches vertes si le sol est couvert de neige. Ce lit doit avoir la forme d’un carré régulier.-Faites un second lit de bûches croisées sur la première couche puis, éventuellement, un troisième lit de bûches croisées sur le second rang.-Sur la plate-forme, construisez un feu de branchages en cône dont le centre est occupé par de l'allume feu.-Placez ensuite deux bûches moyennes de part et d’autre du cône de branches puis deux autres bûches croisées sur les premières. Ce feu brûle par le sommet. Sa combustion est lente mais il irradie beaucoup de chaleur. C'est le feu de nuit idéal en tout lieu dès qu'il vous est possible de le construire avec soin en bûches régulières. Les extrémités des bûches forment un écran protecteur qui améliore la combustion et empêche les étincelles de voler. Comme il n’ a pas besoin d’entretiens réguliers et que sa combustion est lente, il en fait de toute façon très peu. Ce feu est donc préférable à tout autre lorsqu'il y a risque d’incendie. 1, record 9, French, - feu%20en%20pyramide

Les Gyroscopes. Ce sont des appareils capables de mesurer la vitesse de rotation absolue de Chandra selon deux axes différents, et dont le fonctionnement repose sur l'utilisation d’une toupie gyroscopique; celle-ci, animée d’une vitesse de rotation élevée(plusieurs milliers de tours par minute), possède une «rigidité inertielle» qui la maintient selon une direction fixe : si l'on applique un couple(une force qui tend à mettre un solide en rotation) sur l'axe de rotation de la toupie, celle-ci s’écarte beaucoup moins vite de sa direction initiale que si elle n’ était pas animée d’un mouvement de rotation élevée(c'est d’ailleurs pour cette raison de stabilité que les balles des armes à feu sortent du canon en rotation.). 5, record 15, French, - axe%20de%20spin

La mise à feu de la tête d’amorce se produit lorsque la composition pyrotechnique de la perle d’allumage, qui entoure le filament électrique atteint une certaine température; elle est donc fonction de l'intensité du courant électrique, de sa durée d’application, et de la résistance du filament. En France, on fixe la sensibilité des détonateurs par l'intensité du courant électrique à leur amorçage et l'on distingue donc :-Les détonateurs haute intensité(H. I.), pour lesquels le seuil d’intensité susceptible de les faire fonctionner est de 4, 2 ampères.-Les détonateurs basse intensité(B. I.), pour lesquels ce seuil est seulement de 0, 22 ampères, même pour une durée d’application infinie. Les détonateurs H.

System of semi-automatic or automatic firing wherein the bolt remains in the rearward position after each shot or burst, preventing cook-off by not having a round remaining in the chamber.

La mise à feu de la tête d’amorce se produit lorsque la composition pyrotechnique de la perle d’allumage, qui entoure le filament électrique atteint une certaine température; elle est donc fonction de l'intensité du courant électrique, de sa durée d’application, et de la résistance du filament. En France, on fixe la sensibilité des détonateurs par l'intensité du courant électrique à leur amorçage et l'on distingue donc :-Les détonateurs haute intensité(H. I.), pour lesquels le seuil d’intensité susceptible de les faire fonctionner est de 4, 2 ampères-Les détonateurs basse intensité(B. I.), pour lesquels ce seuil est seulement de 0, 22 ampères, même pour une durée d’application infinie. Les détonateurs H. I. nécessitent une source électrique plus intense, donc plus coûteuse, mais sont beaucoup moins sensibles aux courants vagabonds, donc beaucoup plus sûrs. 2, record 30, French, - d%C3%A9tonateur%20haute%20intensit%C3%A9
