Description

A siphon is any of a wide variety of devices that involve the flow of liquids through tubes. In a narrower sense, the word refers particularly to a tube in an inverted "U" shape, which causes a liquid to flow upward, above the surface of a reservoir, with no pump, but powered by the fall of the liquid as it flows down the tube under the pull of gravity, then discharging at a level lower than the surface of the reservoir from which it came.

இறைப்பி அல்லது நீர்மவிறக்கி என்பது தலைகீழாக வைக்கப்பட்ட U வடிவக் குழாய் ஒன்றின் வழியாக புவியீர்ப்பு விசை மற்றும் வளியமுக்கத்தின் உதவியுடன் வேறு உந்துவிசைகள் இன்றி பாய்மங்களை வெளியகற்றும் தொழில்நுட்பமாகும்.
