residual air

During the initial heating of the chamber, residual air must be removed.

On one side, a small emergency lock opened with a soft puff of residual air.

As time passed, the residual air would be absorbed by the walls of the tube, reducing the pressure.

Outer valves opened; residual air screamed out into the interstellar void.

The level floors and low stage don't make for the best sightlines, but the residual air of reverence is ample compensation.

Only Hilary Bond, with her residual air of command, remained aloof from it all.

Residual air puffed out of the cabin, crystallizing.

Great care must be taken to minimize the effects of perturbing forces such as residual air resistance (even in vacuum), vibration, and magnetic forces.

The more you oxygenate the blood by deep breathing before you go down, the longer you can stay down with only residual air in your lungs.

This section of the plant produced a large volume of residual air that contained small amounts of cumene; a highly odorous material.

In a defective tube residual air pressure will lead to ionization, becoming visible as a pink-purple glow discharge between the tube elements.

The door opened quietly, without the pneumatic hiss or any other appreciable sound that could be heard or detected over the residual air conditioning of the building.

'Bubble moving for'd, three degrees,' Bull Clint said,' pushing up Safari's nose to clear the for'd tanks of residual air.

If the Valsalva maneuver is conducted during ascent, residual air overpressure in the middle-ear can potentially be released through the Eustachian tubes.

Crookes tubes created free electrons by ionization of the residual air in the tube by a high DC voltage of anywhere between a few kilovolts and 100 kV.

Crookes tubes generated the electrons needed to create X-rays by ionization of the residual air in the tube, instead of a heated filament, so they were partially but not completely evacuated.

The 5 m x 1 m frame incorporates the fixed solar panels as fins to stabilise the spacecraft while it orbits through the residual air in the ionosphere (also called thermosphere).

The gas ionization (or cold cathode) method of producing cathode rays used in Crookes tubes was unreliable, because it depended on the pressure of the residual air in the tube.

Maybe not; maybe it was only the sound of the body's residual air escaping with the movement-but it wasn't; I could see Jamie's face, holding him, and I knew it wasn't.

There was probably enough residual air in the corridor for the three of them to breathe comfortably for several hours, even without the backup tanks; somebody would come for them long before it ran out.

"This will not be easy - especially as the residual air defense threat (there have been several surface-to-air missile launches to the south of our area) has prevented the resumption of civilian passenger flights into Iraq so far.

The most commonly used orbits for both manned and unmanned space vehicles are Low Earth Orbits, which cover an altitude range low enough for residual air drag to be sufficient to help keep the zone clear.

As a result of these experiences and to remain conservative about long-term effects we do not know about yet, the following steps have been adopted by CCGG as procedure; Blow off the residual air down to ambient pressure.

Instead, electrons are generated by the ionization of the residual air by a high DC voltage (from a few kilovolts to about 100 kilovolts) applied between the electrodes, usually by an induction coil (a "Ruhmkorff coil").

Experiments by Shortt showed that at 30 mm Hg the energy consumed by the flexing of the suspension spring just equalled the energy consumed by deflecting the residual air molecules and therefore a higher vacuum was not required.
