|
|
|
| Second, central banks around the world will ease monetary policy to help offset the downdraft caused by the current liquidity event. |
|
| The strongest downdraft is usually found at a height near the top of the summit and could force an aircraft into the ground. |
|
| The media is designed for crossdraft and downdraft paint booths, as well as open spray stations. |
|
| Outside chimneys may not draw as well and may downdraft due to the difficulty in heating them up to operating temperature. |
|
| The appearance of precipitation beneath the base of the cell and the development of the downdraft mark the transition to this stage. |
|
| If the winds are strong, beware of eddy currents coming off nearby trees, and for strips with a precipice at the approach end, be ready for a strong downdraft on short final. |
|
| A centralized dust collection system reduces particulate emissions while a downdraft refinishing system provides better ventilation while reducing paint loss from overspraying. |
|
| A further refinement of the scove kiln, round or rectangular in form, is designated as updraft or downdraft, indicating the direction of heat flow. |
|
| Similar currents that exhibit a central downdraft are termed vortexes and occur where coastal and bottom configurations provide narrow passages of considerable depth. |
|
| Section 8 extends approaches to three dimensions and considers a so-called survival problem in systems of updraft and downdraft areas. |
|
| A haboob is a wall of dust pushed along the ground at high speeds by a thunderstorm downdraft. |
|
| Like other rich countries, Britain is feeling the downdraft from the credit crisis at a time when rising inflation makes it hard for the central bank to provide succour. |
|
| The surface wind would have been blowing over a low hill and might have caused a slight downdraft, which could have decreased the aircraft's take-off performance. |
|
| In fact, the souring of economic conditions, eroding consumer confidence and, in some instances, past excesses are creating a downdraft that the majority of Canada's housing markets will be hard-pressed to resist. |

| As an example, less than 24 hours after a cluster of shallow-rooted trees were pushed over by the downdraft from a helicopter, Ms. Naish had assessed the damage and crews were on scene to remove any unsafe debris. |
|
| Another benefit of the downdraft dust collector is that it usually takes up less floor space than a conventional dust collector, making it much more flexible with regard to space and plant layout. |
|
| Most of the applications focus on waste-to-energy gasifiers, steam reforming, and fluidized bed applications, using mostly downdraft designs in both small to large scale applications. |
|
| After the plane passes through the downdraft in the center of the microburst, it is swept by a tailwind, which robs the plane of lift. |
|
| Industry firsts also featured on Chrysler products in the 1930s included a downdraft carburetor, automatic spark control and rustproofed, welded steel bodies. |
|
| Short interest is clearly a concern, but only becomes an issue if CAT hits a sudden downdraft and takes out its technical support, which doesn't seem likely at this point. |
|
|
