2. Austenitic stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austenitic_stainless_steel

   300 series stainless steels are the larger subgroup. The most common austenitic stainless steel and most common of all stainless steel is Type 304, also known as 18/8 or A2. Type 304 is extensively used in such items as cookware, cutlery, and kitchen equipment. Type 316, also known as A4, is the next most common austenitic stainless steel.

3. Water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heating

   Direct electric resistance tank water heaters are not included in the Energy Star program; however, the Energy Star program does include electric heat pump units with energy factors of 200% or higher. Tankless gas water heaters (as of 2015) must have an energy factor of 90% or higher for Energy Star qualification.

4. Thermostat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostat

   A thermostat exerts control by switching heating or cooling devices on or off, or by regulating the flow of a heat transfer fluid as needed, to maintain the correct temperature. A thermostat can often be the main control unit for a heating or cooling system, in applications ranging from ambient air control to automotive coolant control.

5. List of vacuum tubes - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_vacuum_tubes

   Many of these types had gold-plated base pins and special heater configurations inside the nickel cathode tube designed to reduce hum pickup from the A.C. heater supply, and also had improved oxide insulation between the heater and cathode so the cathode could be elevated to a greater voltage above the heater supply.

6. Tankless water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankless_water_heating

   A hybrid water heater is a water heating system that integrates technology traits from both the tank-type water heaters and the tankless water heaters. [5] It maintains water pressure and consistent supply of hot water across multiple hot water applications, and like its tankless cousins, it is efficient and can supply a continuous flow of hot ...

7. Stainless steel - Wikipedia

   The minimum 10.5% chromium in stainless steels provides resistance to approximately 700 °C (1,300 °F), while 16% chromium provides resistance up to approximately 1,200 °C (2,200 °F). Type 304, the most common grade of stainless steel with 18% chromium, is resistant to approximately 870 °C (1,600 °F).

8. Marine grade stainless - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_grade_stainless

   SAE 316 stainless steel is a molybdenum-alloyed steel and the second most common austenitic stainless steel (after grade 304). It is the preferred steel for use in marine environments because of its greater resistance to pitting corrosion than most other grades of steel without molybdenum. [ 1 ]

9. SAE 304 stainless steel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_304_stainless_steel

   304 stainless steel is also used in the architectural field for exterior accents such as water and fire features. It is also a common coil material for vaporizers. Early SpaceX Starships used SAE 301 stainless steel in their construction, [ 8 ] before moving over to SAE 304L for the SN7 test tank [ broken anchor ] [ 9 ] and Starship SN8 in 2020.
