estrangulador/estrangulamento


Explanation:
Em PT(pt), diria assim..

4.2.1.2- A borboleta de arranque a frio
Este sistema, também designado por estrangulador,
é actualmente o mais utilizado para "ajudar" a por o motor
em funcionamento, pois é mais eficaz a baixas temperaturas.
http://home.utad.pt/~fsantos/pub-fas/otto.pdf

Os carburadores são constituídos basicamente por um circuito de ar e um de combustível, sendo o primeiro formado por um corpo, que se prolonga pelas condutas de admissão, que tem um
estrangulamento a que se chama bico, onde se origina, devido à passagem do ar, uma zona de depressão; o débito do ar que passa pelo bico do carburador é função da abertura da borboleta do acelerador.

agree  Denis Paolillo: em offshore usamos estragulador para qualquer linha de bomba:"choke" - orifício instalado em uma linha para conter o fluxo"
42 mins
  -> Obrigada, Denis!
neutral  Roberto Bittencourt: Não sei qual o termo em Pt-pt, Teresa, mas voce conhece... com a maior certeza deve estar correta! Errou o Hugo ao não pedir o termo em PT-BR ou PT-PT... mas o colega Denis que desculpe, não se está a falar aqui de linha de bomba, e sim arranque de motor
