English term or phrase: airdraft
En el listado de las dimensiones de un buque:
AIRDRAFT - no restrictions

No hay mas contexto - creo que es el espacio entre la linea de agua y la parte más alta del buque pero ni estoy segura, ni sé como se dice en español. Gracias

Torre de refrigeración


Explanation:
En Encarta, la definición de air draft (creo que en su texto hay um error de mecanografia), es una torre de refrigeración existente en un sistema de vapor, en una chimenea.
Vea se se aplica a su texto, pero es lo que pude encontrar.

Explanation:
I haven't found a translation for your expression, but I can at least confirm the meaning (your interpretation is correct):

Col. 3........Draft Type. Low Air Draft(L) / Medium Air Draft(M) is an indication of total height of the vessel from the water's surface. (http://www.merchantfleets.com/Rhine/Expo.html)

I found many pages of definitions of different nautical terms in Spanish, but haven't come across a term for this one. Maybe someone else will be able to supply that.

For what it's worth... :-)

Good luck!

agree  Leliadoura: no había visto tu comentario sobre freeboard; ya veo la diferencia.

  -> Mi marido es arquítecto naval y nunca había oido este término. Quizás es un termino propio de la navegación (marítima).

francobordo


Explanation:
Yo tampoco he encontrado que airdraft signifique esto, pero si, como dice Cindy, es la parte del barco que queda desde la superficie del agua hasta la borda, eso se llama "francobordo", salió hace unso días en una pregunta llamada "low-freeboard"; el original en inglés era diferente, pero el concepto es el mismo. En esa pregunta encontrarás un glosario de naútica estupendo que remitió Oso y otras referencias sobre el tema que enviamos el resto de los que contestamos.
Espero que te sirva de ayuda.
Un saludo.
