What is Retraction during Discharge?

Retraction during discharge refers to the reduction or decrease in the flow rate, volume, or extent of fluid being released from a system. This process can involve pulling back or slowing down the discharge to control the outflow, often used to prevent overflow, reduce pressure, or adjust the fluid flow to desired levels. Retraction mechanisms are commonly found in hydraulic systems, pumps, or medical devices like syringes, where precise control over the discharge is essential for safety and efficiency. Proper retraction during discharge helps in managing fluid dynamics and achieving controlled operation.
