/fɪnd kuːld ˈsɪlɪndər/

Meaning and Usage

A finned cooled cylinder refers to a type of cylinder, typically in mechanical or engineering contexts, that is designed with fins on its outer surface to enhance cooling through increased surface area exposure. Such designs are commonly found in applications like internal combustion engines, refrigeration systems, or heat exchangers, where it is essential to dissipate heat generated during operation.

The term is more frequently encountered in technical or industrial written contexts than in oral speech, particularly among engineers, mechanics, or industries dealing with thermal management.

Example Sentences

  1. The finned cooled cylinder in the new engine design allows for better temperature regulation during high-performance racing.

  2. Engineers optimized the finned cooled cylinder to improve the efficiency of the refrigeration unit.
    Инженеры оптимизировали цилиндр с ребрами охлаждения для повышения эффективности холодильного агрегата.

  3. Testing revealed that the finned cooled cylinder significantly reduces overheating in prolonged use.
    Испытания показали, что цилиндр с ребрами охлаждения значительно снижает перегрев при длительном использовании.

Idiomatic Expressions

Although "finned cooled cylinder" does not commonly appear in idiomatic expressions, there are several relevant phrases in the context of more general engineering or cooling systems terminology.

Etymology

The term finned derives from the word "fin," which comes from the Old English "finn," used to describe thin projections that resemble fish fins. Cooled originates from the verb "cool," which comes from Middle English "colen," meaning to lower the temperature. Cylinder has its roots in Latin "cylindrus" and Greek "kulindros," both meaning a rolling or cylindrical object.
