  2. Convection heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convection_heater

    A convection heater, also known as a convector heater, is a type of heater that utilizes convection currents [1] to heat and circulate air. These currents move through the appliance and across its heating element, [ 2 ] using thermal conduction [ 3 ] to warm the air and decrease its density relative to colder air, causing it to rise.

  3. Radiant heating and cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 active building systems ...

  4. Pellet stove - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pellet_stove

    With a convection blower, room air is circulated through the heat exchangers and directed into the living space. This method allows for a much higher efficiency than the radiant heat of a hand-fed wood or coal stove, and will in most cases cause the top, sides, and back of the stove to be at most warm to the touch.

  5. Wood-burning stove - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood-burning_stove

    A 19th-century example of a wood-burning stove. A wood-burning stove (or wood burner or log burner in the UK) is a heating or cooking appliance capable of burning wood fuel, often called solid fuel, and wood-derived biomass fuel, such as sawdust bricks.

  6. Heat transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer

    The thermodynamic free energy is the amount of work that a thermodynamic system can perform. Enthalpy is a thermodynamic potential, designated by the letter "H", that is the sum of the internal energy of the system (U) plus the product of pressure (P) and volume (V). Joule is a unit to quantify energy, work, or the amount of heat. [2]

  7. Rocket mass heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocket_mass_heater

    Rocket mass heaters are developed from rocket stoves, a type of wood-burning stove, and masonry heaters. A primary design of a rocket mass heater consists of an insulated combustion chamber where fuel is burned with high efficiency at high temperature, and a large thermal mass in contact with the exhaust gases , which absorbs most of the ...
