  2. Forced-air gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced-air_gas

    Each room has an outlet from the duct system, often mounted in the floor or low on the wall – some rooms will also have an opening into the cold air return duct. Depending on the age of the system, forced-air gas furnaces use either a pilot light or a solid-state ignition system (spark or hot surface ignition) to light the natural gas burner. [3]

  3. Boiler explosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_explosion

    Boiler explosions are of a particular danger in (locomotive-type) fire tube boilers because the top of the firebox (crown sheet) must be covered with some amount of water at all times; or the heat of the fire can weaken the crown sheet or crown stays to the point of failure, even at normal working pressure.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_heating

    At that time central heating was coming into fashion in Britain, with steam or hot air systems generally being used. Details of furnace and expansion tube from Perkins' 1838 Patent. Perkins' 1832 apparatus distributed water at 200 degrees Celsius (392 °F) through small diameter pipes at high pressure. A crucial invention to make the system ...

  5. R-410A - Wikipedia

    However, like methane, R-410A has a global warming potential (GWP) that is appreciably worse than CO 2 (GWP = 1) for the time it persists. R-410A is a mixture of 50% HFC-32 and 50% HFC-125. HFC-32 has a 4.9 year lifetime and a 100-year GWP of 675 and HFC-125 has a 29-year lifetime and a 100-year GWP of 3500.

  6. Stack effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack_effect

    The stack effect in chimneys: the gauges represent absolute air pressure and the airflow is indicated with light grey arrows. The gauge dials move clockwise with increasing pressure. The stack effect in industrial flue gas stacks is similar to that in buildings, except that it involves hot flue gases having large temperature differences with ...

  7. Pilot light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilot_light

    In domestic heating systems with pilot lights, it has been estimated that half of the total energy usage is from the pilot light, with each pilot light on average using between 70 and 500 watts of gas power (between 2 and 16 gigajoules/year). [3] [4] The heat from a pilot light in many appliances (furnaces, space heaters, water heaters) is ...
