  2. Heating system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_system

    Central heating systems: These systems produce heat in one central location and distribute it throughout the building. This category includes furnaces, boilers, and heat pumps. [1] [2] Distributed heating systems: These systems generate heat in the space they are to heat, without extensive duct systems. Examples include electric space heaters ...

  3. Central heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_heating

    The district heating system can use heat sources impractical to deploy to individual homes, such as heavy oil, wood byproducts, or nuclear fission. The distribution network is more costly to build than for gas or electric heating, and so is only found in densely populated areas or compact communities.

    Often used for heat-recovery from the exhaust of large Diesel engines. [16] Climax boiler: A vertical water-tube boiler with many long spiral coils around a central steam-and-water drum. [17] Cochran boiler: a vertical boiler with horizontal fire-tubes. [18] composite boiler: a boiler used for either direct-firing, or as a heat-recovery boiler ...

    For example, a conventional heat pump system used to heat a building in Montana's −57 °C (−70 °F) low temperature or cool a building in the highest temperature ever recorded in the US—57 °C (134 °F) in Death Valley, California, in 1913 would require a large amount of energy due to the extreme difference between inside and outside air ...

  6. Furnace (central heating) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furnace_(central_heating)

    Air convection heating systems have been in use for over a century. Older systems rely on a passive air circulation system where the greater density of cooler air causes it to sink into the furnace area below, through air return registers in the floor, and the lesser density of warmed air causes it to rise in the ductwork; the two forces acting ...

  7. District heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/District_heating

    The Spittelau incineration plant is one of several plants that provide district heating in Vienna, Austria. Animated image showing how district heating works. District heating (also known as heat networks) is a system for distributing heat generated in a centralized location through a system of insulated pipes for residential and commercial heating requirements such as space heating and water ...
