Tech/Engineering - Transport / Transportation / Shipping / Electric Locomotive | | German term or phrase: Auftaustellung | "Heizung der Führerstandsfenster:
Die Stirnfenster sind als elektrisch beheizte Heizscheiben (7 W/dm²) aus Verbundsicherheitsglas ausgeführt. In der zeitlich begrenzten Auftaustellung beträgt die Leistung 28W/dm²."
From a text about a type of electric locomotive. This is referring to the heating of the windows in the driver's cab. I can't find a translation for Auftaustellung anywhere, and really have no idea what it means, other than that it's something to do with thawing or defrosting. TIA for your help. |

| Grading comment These are both really good suggestions, and in this case it comes down to my subjective preference. I hve decided I prefer "setting" to "position", but I certainly don't think "position" is wrong. Many thanks to answerers and peer graders alike - appreciate everyone's help.
