单词	windsail
释义	windsail /ˈwɪn(d)seɪl / noun historical A long wide tube or funnel of sailcloth used to convey air to the lower parts of a ship.For example, breaks, windsails and bellows were devised to control the revolutions of the wheel, while slide rules were adopted to calculate the work-rate and clock bells were installed to ring at the end of a treading stint.... The horizontal shaft with windsails was not set at a true 90 degree angle but approximately 80 degrees making it possible for the said sweep to clear the turret completely. According to Burt the remaining cowls were replaced by windsails but apparently the nets and some cowls were remounted in 1903. Rhymes tinsel
