5 уменьшать
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

6 уменьшаться
Уменьшаться - to decrease, to drop, to fall, to fall off, to lessen, to decline, to relax, to decay; to be decreased, to be reduced, to be diminishedWe see that as firing rate is reduced, M, which is the mass of the combustion gases, decreases linearly.Then the pressure begins to drop as the flow redevelops and continues to drop due to friction in the fully developed regime.As energy is dissipated locally, the temperature rises, the local moduli fall, and the specimen stiffness and damping are reduced.In either case both the tube load and bending stress fall off fairly rapidly away from the outer edge of the tubesheet.We observed in the blunt notched-specimen simulations that the plastic-strain field lessens 63 percent over a distance that is comparable to the 0.25-mm notch-root radius.The effectiveness is shown to decline with increasing cant angle.Following the air flow disturbance, both model results and test data show an initial overshoot (перерегулирование) in steam pressure which then relaxes to a lower value.On the latter bar, the extent of surface damage is significantly reduced due to the inhibiting of the surface/environment interaction by the relatively inert environment.Уменьшаться на-- The first critical speed and the onset speed of instability drop by approximately 7 and 6 percent, respectively.Русско-английский научно-технический словарь переводчика > уменьшаться
