Eddy
A diminutive of Edward, Edgar, Edwin, or other male given names beginning with Ed-
eddy
A current of air or water running back, or in an opposite direction to the main current. Especially a circular current
eddy
To form an eddy
eddy
{a} whirling, moving round or circularly
eddy
{n} a circular motion of wind or water
Eddy
diminutive of Edward
eddy
An eddy is a movement in water or in the air which goes round and round instead of flowing in one continuous direction. eddies a circular movement of water, wind, dust etc. eddied eddying eddies if water, wind, dust etc eddies, it moves around with a circular movement
eddy
A circular movement of water or air that is formed where currents pass obstructions or between two adjacent currents that are flowing counter to each other (Source: Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center, 1990)
eddy
A current, as of water or air, moving contrary to the direction of the main current, especially in a circular motion
eddy
a miniature whirlpool or whirlwind resulting when the current of a fluid doubles back on itself
eddy
A current of water or air moving in a circular direction; a whirlpool
eddy
A current of air, water, or any fluid, forming on the side of the main current, especially one moving in a circle; in extreme cases a whirlpool
eddy
small whirlpool or circular current
eddy
a miniature whirlpool or whirlwind resulting when the current of a fluid doubles back on itself founder of Christian Science in 1866 (1821-1910) flow in a circular current, of liquids
eddy
{f} form a circular current, form a small whirlpool, swirl around (about wind or water)
eddy
{i} circular current, small whirlpool (of wind or water)
eddy
A small volume of air that behaves differently from the predominant flow of the layer in which it exists, seemingly having a life of its own An example would be a tornado, which has its own distinct rotation, but is different than the large-scale flow of air surrounding the thunderstorm in which the tornado is born
eddy
founder of Christian Science in 1866 (1821-1910)
eddy
a small volume of air that behaves differently from the layer that surrounds it, acting with a life of its own An example would be a tornado, which has its own distinct rotation, but is different than the large flow of air surrounding the thunderstorm in which the tornado is born
eddy
flow in a circular current, of liquids
eddy
A whirl or circling current of air or water, different and differentiated from the general flow
eddy
A circular movement of water, usually formed where currents or tidal streams pass obstructions, along the edge of a current or stream, or between two adjacent flows
eddy
A small disturbance of wind in a large wind flow, which can produce turbulent conditions They can also be areas of warmer air north of the main westerlies or colder air south of the westerlies In oceanic circulation, it is a circular movement of water usually formed where currents pass obstructions, between two adjacent currents flowing counter to each other, or along the edge of a permanent current
eddy
A small disturbance of wind in a large wind flow, which can produce turbulent conditions or turbulence They can also be areas of warmer air north of the main westerlies or colder air south of the westerlies (See cut-off high or cut-off low ) In oceanic circulation, it is a circular movement of water usually formed where currents pass obstructions, between two adjacent currents flowing counter to each other, or along the edge of a permanent current
eddy
A localized chaotic movement of air or liquid in a generally uniform larger flow
eddy
A relatively calm area, away from the main current, often near the shore Upstream gates are often located in eddies, so that the paddler will not have to fight the current's full force
eddy
A little whirlpool or whirlwind
eddy
A current of water, especially one moving in a circular pattern, running against the main current
eddy
Circular motion of the water unconnected with general water movement
eddy
To move as an eddy, or as in an eddy; to move in a circle
eddy
swirling currents of air at variance with the main current
eddy
A vortex type motion of water flowing partly opposite to the main current
eddy
A place where the current either stops or turns to head upstream Usually found below obstructions and on the inside of bends
eddy
A circular current of water usually formed at a bend or obstruction in the stream
eddy
A current, as of water or air, moving contrary to the direction of the main current, especially in a circular motion ADVANCE \x 540 ADVANCE \x 540
eddy
An area of water that is still, slow-moving, or moving upstream behind an obstacle in a river Often used by white water paddlers to stop and look about
eddy
A quasi-circular movement of water whose area is relatively small in comparison to the current with which it is associated
eddy
An indentation found in a body of water where a smaller body of water swirls back into itself It is created when a current cuts into a bank Food usually collects in this area, which attracts fish
eddy
A current of air or water running back, or in a direction contrary to the main current
eddy
In a fluid, any circulation drawing its energy from a flow of much larger scale and brought about by pressure irregularities
eddy
To collect as into an eddy
eddy
individual transient element of turbulence-often pictured as a translating and rotating air parcel
