GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Tech/Engineering - Automotive / Cars & Trucks
French term or phrase: pavillon
En comparaison avec la phrase que j'ai postée tout à l'heure, "Isolation thermique du pavillon et des faces latérales d'un bus"; le pavillon signifie ou non le compartiment passager?
elmahan
ceiling/roof
Explanation:
not sure that we would put in insulation as far as the driver's cab of a bus and not include it?

Yes, "cab" is used for trucks but not all buses have a separate driver's cab?

Here, I think the insulation is to be applied to the side walls/panels and ceiling of the bus, in other words to the entire coach compartment or body

Asker: Superbe, Merci beaucoup

Asker: s'il vous plaît, pourriez vous m'expliquer un peu la phrase précédente, "Prolonger les parois arrières et latérales fixes de l'enceinte jusqu'au pavillon et combler tous les interstices "; ici l'enceinte represente le poste de conducteur ou d'autres ?
