French term

piquage de débit

French to English Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering open hydraulic circuit
Hello,

"Système caractérisé par le fait que le moyen adapté pour relier la partie du conduit de retour située en amont de l’élément formant restriction et appliquer au carter du moteur, à partir de ce conduit de retour, une pression inférieure à la pression de ce conduit de retour, comprend un piquage de débit sur le conduit de retour qui comporte une restriction de limitation secondaire et un clapet de fuite.

is "piquage" here "tapping"?
I also have "moyens de repiquage" :S

Does anyone know what this is here please?

Thank you for your time.

Louisa.

Peers can easily find pressure reading connection/pressure check/gauge port when searching 'piquage de débit'
Johannes Gleim Apr 24, 2019:
@ Louisa Thank you. Would be fine to enter this term into the glossary, where it can be found by other peers if need be.
Louisa Tchaicha (asker) Apr 24, 2019:
@Kim and Johannes I have used "ducts" for "conduits". I actually based myself on the abstract of the patent.

Johannes Gleim Apr 22, 2019:
"ducts" are also associated with automotive equipment, i.e. conduits for air and other gases, including exhaust gases. See my references.

BTW: What are "conduits" are associated with, acc. you?
And, please do not focus on typing errors on personal items, if any, but on the subject!

In English, "ducts" are typically associated with ventilation systems. https://tinyurl.com/y38qm24g
Johannes Gleim Apr 22, 2019:
exhaust gas recirculation system? As another peer posted a different proposal the same time, when I considered the subject, I asked myself whether I had overseen some details concerning manometry. I don't think so as pressure gauges do not rely on gas flow but on the static pressure. Rereading the context, I suppose that the patent deals with a new type of exhaust gas recirculation. Is this correct or can you disclose any other relevant piece of information about the purpose of the invention?
Bashiqa Apr 21, 2019:
@ Liz and Andres Ref looks OK but not sure if applicable in this context. Flow tap appears to be a petro-chemical term and here we are talking about an engine. Wait a while and see what comes up.

Tapping or take-off point would probably fit the bill.
Not looked at it closely as watching rugby match.

As we are dealing probably with exhaust gas recirculation I like first to explain the exhaust gas recirculation system and will add proper patents:

In internal combustion engines, exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) is a nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions reduction technique used in petrol/gasoline and diesel engines. EGR works by recirculating a portion of an engine's exhaust gas back to the engine cylinders. This dilutes the O2 in the incoming air stream and provides gases inert to combustion to act as absorbents of combustion heat to reduce peak in-cylinder temperatures. NOx is produced in high temperature mixtures of atmospheric nitrogen and oxygen that occur in the combustion cylinder, and this usually occurs at cylinder peak pressure. Another primary benefit of external EGR valves on a spark ignition engine is an increase in efficiency, as charge dilution allows a larger throttle position and reduces associated pumping losses.
In a gasoline engine, this inert exhaust displaces some amount of combustible charge in the cylinder, effectively reducing the quantity of charge available for combustion without affecting the air fuel ratio. In a diesel engine, the exhaust gas replaces some of the excess oxygen in the pre-combustion mixture.[1] Because NOx forms primarily when a mixture of nitrogen and oxygen is subjected to high temperature, the lower combustion chamber temperatures caused by EGR reduces the amount of NOx the combustion generates.
:
In a typical automotive spark-ignited (SI) engine, 5% to 15% of the exhaust gas is routed back to the intake as EGR. The maximum quantity is limited by the need of the mixture to sustain a continuous flame front during the combustion event; excessive EGR in poorly set up applications can cause misfires and partial burns. Although EGR does measurably slow combustion, this can largely be compensated for by advancing spark timing. The impact of EGR on engine efficiency largely depends on the specific engine design, and sometimes leads to a compromise between efficiency and NOx emissions. A properly operating EGR can theoretically increase the efficiency of gasoline engines via several mechanisms:
• Reduced throttling losses. The addition of inert exhaust gas into the intake system means that for a given power output, the throttle plate must be opened further, resulting in increased inlet manifold pressure and reduced throttling losses.[6]
• Reduced heat rejection. Lowered peak combustion temperatures not only reduces NOx formation, it also reduces the loss of thermal energy to combustion chamber surfaces, leaving more available for conversion to mechanical work during the expansion stroke.
• Reduced chemical dissociation. The lower peak temperatures result in more of the released energy remaining as sensible energy near TDC (Top Dead-Center), rather than being bound up (early in the expansion stroke) in the dissociation of combustion products. This effect is minor compared to the first two.
EGR is typically not employed at high loads because it would reduce peak power output. This is because it reduces the intake charge density. EGR is also omitted at idle (low-speed, zero load) because it would cause unstable combustion, resulting in rough idle.
Since the EGR system recirculates a portion of exhaust gases, over time the valve can become clogged with carbon deposits that prevent it from operating properly. Clogged EGR valves can sometimes be cleaned, but replacement is necessary if the valve is faulty.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exhaust_gas_recirculation

La recirculation des gaz d'échappement, ou RGE (en anglais, EGR pour exhaust gas recirculation) est un système qui consiste à rediriger une partie des gaz d'échappement des moteurs à combustion dans le collecteur d'admission, pour réduire sélectivement les émissions d'oxydes d'azote (NOx) et de particules afin de satisfaire aux normes antipollution sans avoir à modifier la structure du moteur
:
Le système de dépollution par recirculation des gaz d'échappement est constitué d'une conduite permettant de faire transiter une partie des gaz d'échappement vers l'admission, assortie d'un échangeur thermique destiné à refroidir les gaz brûlés et d'une vanne, appelée communément vanne EGR, qui vient régler le débit de gaz brûlés. Cette vanne peut être pilotée par le calculateur de contrôle moteur.

This description matches well my proposal:

Procédé de diagnostic d'un système de recirculation partielle des gaz d'échappement de moteur automobile. Procédé de diagnostic de défaillance d'un système de recirculation partielle des gaz d'échappement d'un moteur à combustion interne de véhicule automobile de type diesel, le moteur à combustion interne étant muni d'un moyen de détermination du débit d'air admis. Le procédé comprend les étapes suivantes: on détermine si la consigne d'air admis est stable depuis une période de temps mémorisée, lorsque tel est le cas, on calcule un critère intégral de diagnostic fonction de la consigne de débit d'air admis et de la mesure d'air admis, puis on détermine si la valeur du critère intégral de diagnostic est supérieure à un seuil, si tel est le cas, on émet un signal de détection de défaut du système de recirculation partielle des gaz d'échappement.

• Le circuit d'EGR dit haute pression (HP) est interne au circuit de suralimentation. L’entrée du circuit est disposée avant la turbine et la sortie est disposée après le compresseur. Ce circuit EGR est utilisé sur l’ensemble des moteurs répondant aux normes de dépollution.

• Le circuit d’EGR dit basse pression (BP) est externe au circuit de suralimentation. L’entrée du circuit est disposée après le filtre à particules et la sortie est disposée avant le compresseur. Ce circuit EGR est utilisé sur certains moteurs répondant aux futures normes de dépollution.
:
Le taux d’EGR BP est assuré en mettant en communication le circuit d’échappement après le filtre à particule et le circuit d’admission avant le compresseur via une section de passage dont la dimension est réglée par une vanne EGR BP. Le taux d 'EGR HP est assuré en mettant en communication le circuit d’échappement avant la turbine et le circuit d’admission après le compresseur via une section de passage dont la dimension est réglée par une vanne EGR HP. Un volet d’admission placée en amont de la vanne EGR HP permet d’augmenter la différence de pression aux bornes du circuit EGR HP et donc d’augmenter le taux d' EGR HP.

I think that we do not need to translate literally piquage "débit" and propose the following circumscription:

à partir de ce conduit de retour, une pression inférieure à la pression de ce conduit de retour, comprend un piquage de débit sur le conduit de retour
=>
from this return duct, a pressure below the pressure of the return duct is delivered by a branch duct to the return duct ...
