The knot holds hot tank juices until they're ready to be expelled.

It's a fume extractor. It uses differential pressure to suck toxic propellent fumes out of the barrel so they don't build up in the turret and poison the crew.

Bore evacuator. Taps off some of the pressure like a gas piston but instead uses the pressure to clear the barrel.

So what said.

Greases the shells as they fly through the barrel to ensure minimum air resistance. Most militaries use vegetable oil in peacetime but tallow is the most efficient, that's why every army worth its salt has a strategic lard reserve. The right grease can increase accuracy by as much as 15%
