  2. Mpemba effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mpemba_effect

    The phenomenon, when taken to mean "hot water freezes faster than cold", is difficult to reproduce or confirm because it is ill-defined. [4] Monwhea Jeng proposed a more precise wording: "There exists a set of initial parameters, and a pair of temperatures, such that given two bodies of water identical in these parameters, and differing only in initial uniform temperatures, the hot one will ...

  3. Heat trap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_trap

    Heat traps are valves or loops of pipe on the cold water inlet and hot water outlet of water heaters. The heat traps allow cold water to flow into the water heater tank, but prevent unwanted natural convection and heated water to flow out of the tank. [1] [2] Newer water heaters have built-in heat traps.

  4. Instant hot water dispenser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant_hot_water_dispenser

    On the other hand, an instant hot water dispenser without a tank does not waste significant energy. When hot water is needed, the instant heater consumes at least 2000 watts to produce hot water at 92 °C and above. [citation needed] The hot water flow rate is approximately 20 litres per hour. Comparing this with the insulated tank type of hot ...

  5. Water dispenser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_dispenser

    Water dispensers can be directly connected to the in-house water source for continuous dispensing of hot and cold drinking water. It is commonly referred to as POU (point of use) water dispensers. POU units are generally more hygienic than bottled water coolers, provided the end user has access to clean water sources. [2]

  6. Tap water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_water

    Tap water can sometimes appear cloudy and is often mistaken for mineral impurities in the water. It is usually caused by air bubbles coming out of solution due to change in temperature or pressure. Because cold water holds more air than warm water, small bubbles will appear in water.

  7. Tap (valve) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_(valve)

    Tap generally refers to a keg or barrel tap, though also commonly refers to a faucet that supplies either hot or cold water and not both. [citation needed] It also appears as a descriptor in "tap water" (i.e. water purified for domestic use). A single temperature tap is commonly found in a commercial or public restroom where the temperature of ...

  8. Tankless water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankless_water_heating

    However, for intermittent-use applications (i.e., turning off/on a hot water faucet at a sink) this can result in initially hot water, followed by a small amount of cold water as the heater re-activates, followed again by hot water. This is particularly an issue if hot water pipes are poorly insulated.

  9. Spring (hydrology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spring_(hydrology)

    Geysers are a type of hot spring where steam is created underground by trapped superheated groundwater resulting in recurring eruptions of hot water and steam. [ 6 ] Carbonated springs, such as Soda Springs Geyser , are springs that emit naturally occurring carbonated water, due to dissolved carbon dioxide in the water content.
