Science - Meteorology / hurricane simulator
English term or phrase: cowl
Bonjour,

je ne sais pas comment traduire le terme "cowl" dans la phrase suivante. Il semblerait que ce soit un élément du simulateur d'ouragans.

"This hurricane simulator is pretty much the largest of its kind and it produces a hurricane with a footprint of the cowl you see behind me."
