gas storage
Context:
Les moyens de chauffage 3 peuvent comprendre un dispositif propre à faire cheminer un fluide calorifique, tel que de l’eau. Par exemple, un tel dispositif peut prendre la forme d’un radiateur, ou d’une coque cylindrique de révolution, à double paroi, entourant la structure de stockage 1.
having difficulty in imagining how this cylindrical object operates.
Patents are supposed to be fairly clear in their description but unless it`s the French revolution rising up then I don`t know.
I don`t think it rotates so word "revolution" might in fact not be needed.
Any suggestions most welcome.
TIA Chris.

: A body of revolution can be solid - this is a shell, i.e. a thin-walled body.

and this paper "On the creep analysis of pressurized circular cylindrical shells" translates 'coque cylindrique de révolution' as a "circular cylindrical shell".
