  2. Fire sprinkler system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_sprinkler_system

    Fire sprinkler systems are generally designed as a life saving system, but are not necessarily designed to protect the building. Of buildings completely protected by fire sprinkler systems, if a fire did initiate, it was controlled by the fire sprinklers alone in 96% of these cases. [2]

  3. Grate heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grate_heater

    This tubular fireplace grate heater has a large surface area heat exchanger in a compact design, with a fan or blower (fans and blowers are not the same) to multiply the effect of natural convection. This is a very basic tubular blower that sits under a grate and heats the air being pumped through it from the heat of the coals.

  4. Fireplace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fireplace

    Some fireplace units incorporate a blower, which transfers more of the fireplace's heat to the air via convection, resulting in a more evenly heated space and a lower heating load. Fireplace efficiency can also be increased with the use of a fireback, a piece of metal that sits behind the fire and reflects heat back into the room.

    Air Heater Blower; Rotating Element Sootblowers; Multi-Media Sootblowers; Fixed Rotating; Steam blowing medium: Steam; Air; High Pressure Water; Dual-media air heater; Steam is normally used as a medium for blowing away the soot since capital cost of steam pressure reducing equipment and drain is less than the cost of compressors, motors and ...

  6. Cogeneration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cogeneration

    Hanasaari Power Plant, a coal-fired cogeneration power plant in Helsinki, Finland Topping cycle plants primarily produce electricity from a steam turbine. Partly expanded steam is then condensed in a heating condensor at a temperature level that is suitable e.g. district heating or water desalination .

  7. List of largest power stations in the United States - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_largest_power...

    Map of all utility-scale power plants. This article lists the largest electricity generating stations in the United States in terms of installed electrical capacity. Non-renewable power stations are those that run on coal, fuel oils, nuclear, natural gas, oil shale, and peat, while renewable power stations run on fuel sources such as biomass, geothermal heat, hydro, solar energy, solar heat ...

  8. Steam–electric power station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steam–electric_power_station

    The efficiency of a conventional steam–electric power plant, defined as energy produced by the plant divided by the heating value of the fuel consumed by it, is typically 33 to 48%, limited as all heat engines are by the laws of thermodynamics (See: Carnot cycle). The rest of the energy must leave the plant in the form of heat.

  9. Draft (boiler) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft_(boiler)

    In a water boiler, draft is the difference between atmospheric pressure and the pressure existing in the furnace or flue gas passage. [1] Draft can also be referred to as the difference in pressure in the combustion chamber area which results in the motion of the flue gases and the air flow.
