  2. Thermal expansion valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_expansion_valve

    A thermal expansion valve or thermostatic expansion valve (often abbreviated as TEV, TXV, or TX valve) is a component in vapor-compression refrigeration and air conditioning systems that controls the amount of refrigerant released into the evaporator and is intended to regulate the superheat of the refrigerant that flows out of the evaporator ...

  3. Thermostatic mixing valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostatic_mixing_valve

    These are single Outlet Thermostatic Mixing Valves, often called "thermostatic faucets", "thermostat taps" or "thermostat valves". Designed for single point applications, such as individual showering, hand wash basin mixers, bath or tub fillers; High level protection against scalding and thermal shock

  4. Automatic balancing valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_balancing_valve

    The effects a variable flow system had on the selection of control valves, was not initially realized. A control valve was selected by using the same K v calculation, and the bypass on a 3-port valve blocked, giving a 2-port valve. It was not that simple. This is because our K v calculation K v = flow rate [m 3 /h] / ΔP [bar

  5. Wax thermostatic element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wax_thermostatic_element

    The wax thermostatic element was invented in 1934 by Sergius Vernet (1899–1968). [1] Its principal application is in automotive thermostats used in the engine cooling system. The first applications in the plumbing and heating industries were in Sweden (1970) and in Switzerland (1971).

  6. Damper (flow) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damper_(flow)

    A damper is a valve or plate that stops or regulates the flow of air inside a duct, chimney, VAV box, air handler, or other air-handling equipment. A damper may be used to cut off central air conditioning (heating or cooling) to an unused room, or to regulate it for room-by-room temperature and climate control - for example, in the case of ...

  9. Talk:Thermostatic radiator valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Thermostatic_radiator...

    I really don't think it is appropriate to talk in terms of CO2 for this subject. Radiator values are not CO2 valves, they are water valves. Heat sources vary widely and frequently release no CO2 at all, such as geothermal or nuclear-electric, or biofuels (like wood) that release recently absorbed CO2 that otherwise would have been released by decomposition.
