English term or phrase: shadow gap

Italian translation:luce di giunzione
Explanation:
I was interested, so I looked up "shadow gap" and found that it is a narrow space between two adjacent cladding elements such as to create a shadow effect when observing the wall (or, presumably, any other surface). It seems that this is obtained using a "profilo" (see Mario's answer - though I don't think "metallico" is necessarily correct in your context). Now over to my Italian colleagues for the correct term!
Respect,
Derek

E' il "cono d'ombra"


Explanation:
Quel punto che, data una posizione per la ventola, non viene direttamente interessato dal getto fredd/caldo dell'aria e viene climatizzato in modo passivo attraverso lo spostamento delle masse d'aria.
