名詞
snift (複数形 snifts)
- A deliberate release of pressure and vapor, such as from a steam engine, or bottling equipment.
- 1827, John Farey, A Treatise on the Steam Engine, page 253:
- The proper use of the air cock is, that after the engine is got steadily to work, and the snift emits no more than it should do, that the air cock should be opened as much as it can be to let the engine come fairly in, that is, for the piston to come fully down, and if it goes out in preference to that of coming in, the better.
- 1896, Great Britain. Patent Office, Patents for Inventions. Abridgments of Specifications, page 97:
