  2. Thermal cutoff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_cutoff

    A thermal switch (sometimes thermal reset or thermal cutout (TCO)) is a device which normally opens at a high temperature (often with a faint "plink" sound) and re-closes when the temperature drops. The thermal switch may be a bimetallic strip, often encased in a tubular glass bulb to protect it from dust or short circuit. Another common design ...

  3. Thermal efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_efficiency

    In thermodynamics, the thermal efficiency is a dimensionless performance measure of a device that uses thermal energy, such as an internal combustion engine, steam turbine, steam engine, boiler, furnace, refrigerator, ACs etc.

  4. Limit switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limit_switch

    Proximity switches operate by the disturbance of an electromagnetic field, by capacitance, or by sensing a magnetic field. Rarely, a final operating device such as a lamp or solenoid valve is directly controlled by the contacts of an industrial limit switch, but more typically the limit switch is wired through a control relay, a motor contactor ...

  5. Mercury switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury_switch

    A Single-Pole, Single-Throw (SPST) mercury switch on millimetre graph paper, device length approximately 1.5 cm Another mercury switch design. A mercury switch is an electrical switch that opens and closes a circuit when a small amount of the liquid metal mercury connects metal electrodes to close the circuit. There are several different basic ...

  6. Thermal expansion valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_expansion_valve

    A thermal expansion valve is a key element to a heat pump; this is the cycle that makes air conditioning, or air cooling, possible.A basic refrigeration cycle consists of four major elements: a compressor, a condenser, a metering device and an evaporator.

  7. Thermostat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostat

    These sense the air temperature using the differential expansion of two metals to actuate an on/off switch. [14] Typically the central system would be switched on when the temperature drops below the setpoint on the thermostat, and switched off when it rises above, with a few degrees of hysteresis to prevent excessive switching.

  8. Thermistor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermistor

    A thermistor is a semiconductor type of resistor in which the resistance is strongly dependent on temperature. The word thermistor is a portmanteau of thermal and resistor.The varying resistance with temperature allows these devices to be used as temperature sensors, or to control current as a function of temperature.

  9. Furnace (central heating) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furnace_(central_heating)

    A two-stage furnace has to do two stage full speed and half (or reduced) speed. Depending on the demanded heat, they can run at a lower speed most of the time. They can be quieter, move the air at less velocity, and will better keep the desired temperature in the house.
