English term or phrase: Fishtail duct
Il s'agit d'un terme pour lequel il m'est difficile de trouver une bonne traduction. Manuel d'utilisation et d'entretien d'un toaster industriel (qui sert à griller divers produits). Voici quelques phrases:
"The Plenum is a mild steel fabricated assembly forming a "pressure plenum" and the return "fishtail ducts"."
"Air is re-cycled from the processing area via means of two fishtail ducts leading to the entries into the Dust Separation Unit."
"Each month the fishtail structure should be inspected and cleaned if necessary."
Ces conduits ont bel et bien la forme d'une queue de poisson. "Conduit à queue de poisson"? "conduit conique" (bien que ce ne soit pas réellement conique).
Avez-vous déjà rencontré ce terme, que proposez-vous? Un grand merci.

conduit en queue de poisson
Explanation:
le terme exact pour "duct" est "conduit", ainsi que "queue de poisson" l'est pour "fishtail." Je suis certain que ce terme est exact dans le contexte de l'exemple et l'application que vous avez fourni.
