siphon effect Explanation: Rola tego morskiego przejścia jako „wąskiego gardła”, którego działanie można porównać do zjawiska syfonu, polega na hamowaniu i opóźnianiu efektów pływów. - http://visla.uwm.edu.pl/teksty/cz1rdz1-org1.pdf The duct openings are situated at levels in eachreservoir which are constantly submerged, assuring that once the duct system is charged with water, the siphon effect will cause water to flow from one reservoir to the other as the tide level changes - http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/4288985/description.html There is a structure found in a few caves that gives the flowing water contained in their depths a tidal effect. It’s called a siphon, and it works much like a flushing toilet. - http://www.kokoweef.com/Legend_Adobe_Acrobat_pdf/Kokoweef-Ti... |

orifice Explanation: IMO autor użył nieodpowiedniego określenia. Syfon http://goo.gl/iwlKQ chroni przed przedostawaniem się nieapetycznych zapachów z kanalizacji do mieszkania. Syfon do do wody sodowej jest poza zakresem tego pytania. Nie znam innych znaczeń wyrazu "syfon". Wąska cieśnina spowalnia przepływ wody w obydwie strony, czyli działa jak kryza = orifice. Sugeruję dopytać autora, co miał na myśli. |
