[Middle English, from Old English pott, from Vulgar Latin *pottus.]

swirl pot : ...Swirl Pots Designed to be used in conjunction with an alloy header tank, a swirl pot fits into the top radiator hose and removes air bubbles...
(aynı nesne doğalgaz kombilerinde filân da var - merkezkaç kuvvet etkisi ile hava kabarcıklarını sıvıdan ayırıyor - hava tahliye haznesi diyorlar kombiciler)
(www.msport.co.uk/acatalog/bailey_swirl_pots.html)

potentiometer: 1. a device for measuring electromotive force or potential difference by comparison with a known voltage; 2. voltage divider. (herhangi bir sıradan sözlük!)

Yani, bu pot o pot değil!

Ne denirse densin de potansiyometre denmeMEsinde yarar var.

Bu biçimde çeviri, okuyana radyatör üst hortum bağlantı yerinde potansiyometre aratacaktır! :-((

Bu vesileyle Tayfun ve Digger( Diğer değil :) ) Beylere ciddi bir "fikr-i takip" ilkesiyle hareket ettikleri ve bilimsel derinlikleri dolayısıyla bir kez daha teşekkür etmek isterim.

"Swirl Pot" ifadesi, otomotiv sektöründeki en yaygın kullanım alanı göz önüne alınarak "TÜRBÜLANS HAZNESİ" vs. gibi bir karşılıkla çevrilmelidir.

Elektronik ve Aerodinamik terminolojide ise(özellikle "acceleratorler" için) türbülanslardaki potansiyel farklar dolayısıyla ilgili potansiyometrelerden söz edilebilir.

Evet, son tahlilde en uygun karşılık "TÜRBÜLANS HAZNESİ" veya buna benzer başka bir ifade olacaktır.

Saygılarımla...
