  2. Heated air inlet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heated_air_inlet

    A heated air inlet or warm air intake is a system commonly used on the original air cleaner assemblies of carburetted engines to increase the temperature of the air going into the engine for the purpose of improving the consistency of the air/fuel mixture to reduce engine emissions and fuel usage.

  3. Warm air intake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warm_air_intake

    Warm air from inside the engine bay is used opposed to air taken from the generally more restrictive stock intake. Warmer air is less dense, and thus contains less oxygen to burn fuel in. The car's ECU compensates by opening the throttle wider to admit more air. This, in turn, decreases the resistance the engine must overcome to suck air in.

    For example, Paraffin has very large molecules and thus a high heat capacity per mole, but as a substance it does not have remarkable heat capacity in terms of volume, mass, or atom-mol (which is just 1.41 R per mole of atoms, or less than half of most solids, in terms of heat capacity per atom).

  5. Carburetor heat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carburetor_heat

    Carburetor heat (usually abbreviated to 'carb heat') is a system used in automobile and piston-powered light aircraft engines to prevent or clear carburetor icing. It consists of a moveable flap which draws hot air into the engine intake. The air is drawn from the heat stove, a metal plate around the (very hot) exhaust manifold.

  6. Heating system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_system

    A heating system is a mechanism for maintaining temperatures at an acceptable level; by using thermal energy within a home, office, or other dwelling. Typically, these systems are a crucial part of an HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) system.

    The hot air in conventional ovens just hangs around and sometimes leads to uneven results. Cooking With Convection Since convection ovens work so fast, the foods don't have to be cooked for as ...

  8. Warm air intake (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warm_air_intake...

    Warm air intake is a system to reduce mass flow by reducing inlet density with heating, thus reducing mass flow for the same volume. Warm air intake may also refer to: Heated air inlet , a commonplace system to improve winter cold starting, pre-heating inlet air, by passing it around the exhaust manifold

  9. Pulverized coal-fired boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulverized_coal-fired_boiler

    Pieces of coal are crushed between balls or cylindrical rollers that move between two tracks or "races." The raw coal is then fed into the pulverizer along with air heated to about 650 °F (340 °C) from the boiler. As the coal gets crushed by the rolling action, the hot air dries it and blows out the usable fine coal powder to be used as fuel.
