2. Slip ratio (gas–liquid flow) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slip_ratio_(gas–liquid_flow)

   Slip ratio (or velocity ratio) in gas–liquid (two-phase) flow, is defined as the ratio of the velocity of the gas phase to the velocity of the liquid phase. [ 1 ] In the homogeneous model of two-phase flow , the slip ratio is by definition assumed to be unity (no slip).

   Step 5: Once the tank is empty, turn the cold-water supply on to flush the tank with clean water until it runs clear from the drain valve. Step 6: Remove the hose and close your drain valve before ...

4. Energy factor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_factor

   The energy factor metric only applies to residential water heaters, which are currently defined by fuel, type, and input capacity. [5] Generally, the EF number represents the thermal efficiency of the water heater as a percentage, since it is an average of the ratio of the theoretical heat required to raise the temperature of water drawn to the amount of energy actually consumed by the water ...

5. Water heating - Wikipedia

   In comparison, a typical 230 L (60 US gal) tank electric water heater has a 4.5 kW (15,000 BTU/h) heating element, which at 100% efficient results in a heating time of about 2.34 hours. At $0.16/kWh the electricity would cost $1.68.

6. Tankless water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankless_water_heating

   A hybrid water heater is a water heating system that integrates technology traits from both the tank-type water heaters and the tankless water heaters. [5] It maintains water pressure and consistent supply of hot water across multiple hot water applications, and like its tankless cousins, it is efficient and can supply a continuous flow of hot ...

7. Condensing boiler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensing_boiler

   Condensing boilers are water heaters typically used for heating systems that are fueled by gas or oil. When operated in the correct circumstances, a heating system can achieve high efficiency (greater than 90% on the higher heating value) by condensing water vapour found in the exhaust gases in a heat exchanger to preheat the circulating water.
