QUAND J'AI LU 'CUP SIZE' ... Et moi qui pensait à la taille du bonnet ... en parlant de soutien-gorge!

@ Florence Yes, I quite agree — that's what is used to express the 'taille de la buse'; here, we are talking about the cup size, and in the few refs. I looked at, this particular secondary dimension seemed to be expressed in terms of the diameter — so for any specific gas-flow size, you might have different cup sizes.

normalement l'indication de la taille des buses est en fonction du débit du gaz traversant la buse.. buse xx 100 l/h - buse yyy 25 l/h
