That which deflects, as a diaphragm in a furnace, or a cone in a lamp (to deflect and mingle air and gases and help combustion).
A device placed inside a tank to change the flow direction during loading or unloading.
A habitat improvement structure, made of a variety of materials (logs, rocks), used to create fish and aquatic macro-invertebrate habitat. These structures are built outward into the river channel from either one or both banks in order to direct water flow away from the banks and consequently preventing stream bank erosion. Deflectors are especially effective in wide, shallow, low gradient streams because they also provide desirable scouring and sorting of channel materials, pools and cover.
a device intended to turn aside the flow of something (water or air or smoke etc)
an easy, effective tool for eking out as many miles as possible from every tank
An upright slab, a short segment of masonry wall, or a wattle-and-daub wall between the hearth and the ventilator system. The deflector is thought to have shielded fire in the hearth from direct air flow from the ventilator tunnel.
A means for directing the flow of the gas discharge from the vent of the arrester.
A device mounted on the receiver or frame of a firearm to change the direction of fired-case ejection.
The domed part of the burner which encloses the wick tube and wick. Directs air flow to the wick and helps control combustion, thus producing a stable flame.
This is a part of a microsprinkler which directs the water flow. This would be what makes the water spray in a 180 deg or 90 deg pattern. Not all microsprinklers use this in the same way but they all use the same principal.
A device used to change the direction of a stream of air or of a mixture of pulverized fuel and air.
