  2. Underfloor heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underfloor_heating

    Underfloor heating. Underfloor heating and cooling is a form of central heating and cooling that achieves indoor climate control for thermal comfort using hydronic or electrical heating elements embedded in a floor. Heating is achieved by conduction, radiation and convection. Use of underfloor heating dates back to the Neoglacial and Neolithic ...

  3. Hypocaust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypocaust

    Hypocaust. A hypocaust (Latin: hypocaustum) is a system of central heating in a building that produces and circulates hot air below the floor of a room, and may also warm the walls with a series of pipes through which the hot air passes. This air can warm the upper floors as well. [1] The word derives from the Ancient Greek hypo meaning "under ...

  4. Infrared heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_heater

    An infrared heater or heat lamp is a heating appliance containing a high-temperature emitter that transfers energy to a cooler object through electromagnetic radiation. Depending on the temperature of the emitter, the wavelength of the peak of the infrared radiation ranges from 750 nm to 1 mm. No contact or medium between the emitter and cool ...

  5. Ondol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ondol

    Ondol (ON-dol; / ˈɒn.dɒl /, [1] Korean: 온돌; Hanja: 溫突/溫堗; Korean pronunciation: [on.dol]) or gudeul (구들; Korean pronunciation: [ku.dɯl]) in Korean traditional architecture is underfloor heating that uses direct heat transfer from wood smoke to heat the underside of a thick masonry floor. In modern usage it refers to any type ...

  6. Radiant heating and cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiant_heating_and_cooling

    Radiant heating and cooling. Radiant heating and cooling is a category of HVAC technologies that exchange heat by both convection and radiation with the environments they are designed to heat or cool. There are many subcategories of radiant heating and cooling, including: "radiant ceiling panels", [1] "embedded surface systems", [1] "thermally ...

  7. Ground-coupled heat exchanger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground-coupled_heat_exchanger

    Ground-coupled heat exchanger. A qanat and windcatcher used as an earth duct, for both earth coupling and evaporative cooling. No fan is needed; the suction in the lee of the windtower draws the air up and out. A ground-coupled heat exchanger is an underground heat exchanger that can capture heat from and/or dissipate heat to the ground.

  8. Displacement ventilation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_ventilation

    A typical displacement ventilation system, such as one in an office space, supplies conditioned cold air from an air handling unit (AHU) through a low induction air diffuser. Diffuser types vary by applications. Diffusers can be located against a wall ("wall-mounted"), at the corner of a room ("corner-mounted"), or above the floor but not ...

  9. Pilae stacks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilae_stacks

    Pilae stacks are stacks of pilae tiles, square or round tiles, that were used in Roman times as an element of the underfloor heating system, [1] common in Roman bathhouses, called the hypocaust. The concept of the pilae stacks is that the floor is constructed at an elevated position, allowing air to freely circulate underneath and up, through ...
