Il arrive souvent que la corrosion cause la perte de l'élément le plus réactif de l'alliage pour n’ y laisser que l'élément le moins réactif. Ce processus est communément appelé «corrosion sélective» ou «lessivage sélectif». Des termes plus précis sont employés pour nommer la perte d’un métal en particulier, par exemple «décuprification» pour la perte du cuivre et «dézincification» pour le zinc. 3, record 1, French, - d%C3%A9cuprification

A type of refrigerant control. Usually consists of several feet of tubing having small inside diameter. Friction of liquid refrigerant and bubbles of vaporized refrigerant within tube serve to restrict flow so that correct high side and low side pressures are maintained while the compressor is operating. A capillary tube refrigerant control allows high side and low side pressures to balance during off cycle. 2, record 3, English, - capillary%20tube

A measurement of environmental thermal conditions, made with a thermometer the bulb of which is in the centre of a six-inch diameter matt-black surfaced thin-walled copper sphere. By this technique a value is obtained which reflects the radiant heat flux, the air velocity and the ambient air temperature, the measuring instrument being so designed as to have similar ratios of convective and radiative heat loss to those of man in the same conditions. 1, record 5, English, - globe%20temperature

Une mesure des conditions thermiques du milieu, faite au moyen d’un thermomètre dont le réservoir est placé au centre d’une sphère de 6 pouces de diamètre, dont la paroi est une feuille mince de cuivre et dont la surface est d’un noir mat. Par cette technique, on obtient une valeur qui représente le flux de chaleur radiante, la vitesse de l'air et la température de l'air ambiant, l'instrument de mesure étant conçu pour avoir des rapports de perte de chaleur par convection et des pertes de chaleur par radiation, similaires à ceux de l'homme dans les mêmes conditions. 1, record 5, French, - temp%C3%A9rature%20mesur%C3%A9e%20par%20thermom%C3%A8tre%20globe
