Bake-out, in several areas of technology and fabrication, and in building construction, refers to the process of using high heat temperature (), and possibly vacuum, to remove volatile compounds from materials and objects before placing them into situations where the slow release of the same volatile compounds would contaminate the contents of a container or vessel, spoil a vacuum, or cause ...
Digital freeze stats, also known as electronic or solid state freeze stats, use an electronic circuit, microprocessor, or microcontroller in place of the mechanical freeze stat's diaphragm and switch. They also use one or more electric or electronic sensors in place of the capillary tube and bulb for temperature sensing.
HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning) equipment needs a control system to regulate the operation of a heating and/or air conditioning system. [1] Usually a sensing device is used to compare the actual state (e.g. temperature) with a target state. Then the control system draws a conclusion what action has to be taken (e.g. start the ...
Barium iodide is an inorganic compound with the formula BaI 2.The compound exists as an anhydrous and a hydrate (BaI 2 (H 2 O) 2), both of which are white solids.When heated, hydrated barium iodide converts to the anhydrous salt.
In natural gas furnaces, water heaters, and room heating systems, a safety cut-off switch is normally included so that the gas supply to the pilot and heating system is shut off by an electrically operated valve if the pilot light goes out. This cut-off switch usually detects the pilot light in one of several ways: A flame rectification device. [2]
Gas stations are routine stops for most people, but they also present opportunities for criminals to take advantage of those who are unaware. Before you fill up your tank next time, it's important ...
BACnet is a communication protocol for building automation and control (BAC) networks that use the ASHRAE, ANSI, and ISO 16484-5 standards [1] protocol.. BACnet was designed to allow communication of building automation and control systems for applications such as heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning control (), lighting control, access control, and fire detection systems and their ...
Gasoline is brought to the heater from the vehicle's fuel system. A fan blows air into a combustion chamber, where a glow plug or similar ignition device lights the gasoline/air mixture. Ducting around this contains a second fan, which blows air warmed by contact with the combustion chamber into the interior of the vehicle.
