Component of a housing which constitutes a stage when used: removes liquids and solids by impingement: may be either upstream or downstream of the basic filter medium. May also be a plate to protect filter elements from the velocity of flow into a housing.
A device used to divert the flow of a substance (air or liquid).
A component designed to control or deflect the flow of a fluid or gas (eg: flue gases in a gas heater). In the case of Dux gas storage type water heaters the flue baffle has been designed to ensure maximum heat transfer of energy contained in hot flue gasses to the water in contact with the flue surface while maximising efficiency of gas consumption and windy area performance reliability.
Device or partition that stops or re-directs air flow.
A plate used to prevent the movement of gases or liquids in the direction that it would normally follow, and to direct it into the desired path.
A partition or grating in a furnace, container or channel.
_ A device used to direct water flow, often to equalize flow across a boundary surface such as a fish screen.
A device that regulates the flow of light so that it all comes from a particular direction.
a flat plate that controls or directs the flow of fluid or energy
a surface used to deflect air- flow, usually in the form of a plate or wall
A nonconductive barrier inserted in the cell above the plate pack and used as a reference for the electrolyte level. It also protects the top edges of the plates from objects dropped into the vent cap hole.
Any deflector device used to change the direction or the flow of water.
An object placed in an appliance to change the direction of, or retard the flow of air, air-gas mixtures, or flue gases
panel or panels located at rear of the hood interior which aid in directing the flow of air into and through the hood.
Plate or vane used to direct or control movement of air within a confined area.
A plate, grating, or refractory wall used especially to block, hinder, or divert a flow. The baghouse inlet typically has the highest velocity. Particulate will sandblast the lower portion of the bags in the baghouse in the absence of a baffle
A device used as a heat shield to deflect the byproducts of combustion.
A flat board or plate, deflector, guide, or similar device constructed or placed in flowing water or slurry systems to cause more uniform flow velocities to absorb energy and to divert, guide, or agitate liquids.
A device, such as a steel plate, used to check, retard, or divert a flow of a material.
A partition to control light, air, sound, or traffic flow.
A plate or deflector to provide flow distribution in a filter housing.
device to maintain a ventilation space between the insulation and roof deck, assuring air flow from the eave/soffit vents to ridge vent or other roof vents in attics and cathedral ceilings.
A deflector plate on the inlet of a typical filter that disperses the water over the top of the filter bed or media more evenly.
A pier, vane, sill, fence, wall or mound built on the bed of a stream to parry, deflect, check or disturb the flow or to float on the surface to deflect or dampen cross currents or waves.
A rigid or flexible barrier used to direct and control the flow of air.
A plate or vane, plain or perforated, used to regulate or direct the flow of fluid.
A plate fitted inside deposit or posting slot to make the unauthorized removal of valuables difficult.
A device used to restrict or divert the passage of fluid through a pipe line or channel. In hydraulic systems the device, which often consists of a disc with a small central perforation, restricts the flow of hydraulic fluid in a high pressure line. A common location for the disc is in a joint in the line. When applied to moulds, the term is indicative of a plug or similar device located in a stream or water channel in the mould and designed to divert and restrict the flow to a desired path.
A deflecting barrier to affect the flow pattern of water.
A plate or wall for deflecting gases or liquids.
A structure surgically created to divert blood flow. For instance, in atrial switch operations for complete transposition of the great vessels, an intra-atrial baffle is constructed to divert systemic venous return across the mitral valve thence to LV and pulmonary artery, and pulmonary venous return across the tricuspid valve thence to RV and aorta. See also Mustard procedure(operation) and Senning procedure.
Any of several kinds of walls, blocks, or deflector vanes placed in channelized water to dissipate energy in order to achieve a more uniform distribution of velocities, to divert flow, or to achieve another desired engineering purpose.
A plate used to keep fluids from moving back and forth at will in a container.
