Solenoid valve test procedures
9.2.1.3.2 Balayage N2
L’influence du balayage N2 dépend fortement de la position de l’EV dans le BEVM. L’influence sur la température de l’EV N°8 (près du mamelon alimentation du balayage N2) est de -10°C alors que l’influence sur l’EV N°3 est négligeable.
In this context would flushing be appropriate. Not certain what N2 means at this point. It could be Nitrogen perhaps, don't know.
TIA Chris.
BEVM = Motor solenoid valve unit

Yes, with N2 = nitrogen
Basically getting rid of initial contents with an inert gas, i.e. nitrogen.

As CC says, 'purging' is also used.

Thanks, nokostya! Yes, 'scavenging' is also used, but I'm not sure that meaning would be applicable here.

: it is a gas here used to flush a cavity clean so this is definitely a wrong answer

: This is only one meaning of the term, and I'm afraid as the context makes it clear, this would be the wrong meaning in this context.
