L'idée est simple; plutôt que de laisser au piston le soin d’aspirer le mélange gazeux dont il a besoin, on compresse puis on gave la chambre de combustion en introduisant dans la tubulure un mélange déjà comprimé. Ainsi, l'inertie de la masse gazeuse est-elle contrée. On se sert de l'énergie des gaz d’échappement pour faire tourner une turbine qui entraîne un axe à très grande vitesse. 1, record 4, French, - turbocompresseur

Food extruders are often starve-fed, which means the feed input to the extruder is controlled externally with an independent feeder and is less than the maximum throughput for a given screw speed. The effect of starve-feeding on the pressure profile during potato granule extrusion is apparent in the fact that the pressure build-up in the extruder only occurs near the die when the screw channels are full of material. 1, record 6, English, - starve%2Dfeeding
