transpiration has definitions from the fields of biology,physics
1
[ noun ] (physics) the passage of gases through fine tubes because of differences in pressure or temperature

Used in print

(Raymond C. Binder et al., editors, Proceedings...)

Feed_back of the energy transferred to the anode by applying gas transpiration through the anode .

The purpose of the present study is to study the thermal conditions and to establish an energy balance for a transpiration cooled anode as_well_as the effect of blowing on the arc voltage .

Gas injection through a porous anode ( transpiration cooling ) not_only feeds_back the energy transferred to the anode by the above mentioned processes , but also modifies the conditions in the arc itself .
