Уменьшать - to decrease, to reduce, to lower, to lessen, to diminish (понижать); to detract from, to alleviate, to relax (ослаблять, облегчать); to curtail (сокращать, урезывать)The effect of higher initial rod temperature is to reduce the quench from velocity.Attention over the past years has been directed to the outlet end of a heat recovery boiler where dual drums have been incorporated to lower the stack temperature.At locations further outward from the vessel centerline, reduced turbulence lessens the gradient.The production of spray at nozzle exit detracts from the cohesiveness and distance of travel of the jet before breakup.Dimensional tolerances may be greatly relaxed.Some resonances are enhanced by the load; some are diminished.Various palliatives have been tried on different engine types to alleviate this type of damage.Station electrical output may be needlessly curtailed because of the limit imposed on the thermal output of the reactor (... могут необоснованно уменьшить...).At the same time, the power to the vent heater was diminished to about a quarter of its initial value, and after an hour it was turned off.Уменьшать до-- The work output required of the turbine was reduced to 55 percent of the aero level. Уменьшать на-- The operating metal temperatures of the critical blade section and the center of the wheel rim are reduced 145°F and 260°F, respectively.—уменьшать штат наРусско-английский научно-технический словарь переводчика > уменьшать
