WHAT DOES OPEN DIAPASON MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Flue pipe

A flue pipe is an organ pipe that produces sound through the vibration of air molecules, in the same manner as a recorder or a whistle. Air under pressure is driven down a flue and against a sharp lip called a Labium, causing the column of air in the pipe to resonate at a frequency determined by the pipe length. Thus, there are no moving parts in a flue pipe. This is in contrast to reed pipes, which are driven by a beating reed, as in a clarinet. Flue pipes are common components of pipe organs.
