  2. Pot-in-pot refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pot-in-pot_refrigerator

    A pot-in-pot refrigerator, clay pot cooler [1] or zeer (Arabic: زير) is an evaporative cooling refrigeration device which does not use electricity. It uses a porous outer clay pot (lined with wet sand) containing an inner pot (which can be glazed to prevent penetration by the liquid) within which the food is placed. The evaporation of the ...

  3. Water timer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_timer

    The gearbox in a ball valve timer makes a rumbling sound when actuated. The solenoid type switching timers contain a solenoid that relieves pressure on a diaphragm in the water-flow tube or moves a stopper into the water flow area to regulate flow. The solenoid type uses no gears and makes a tapping sound when the solenoid is activated.

  4. Refrigeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refrigeration

    In the cooling step on the inside of the refrigerator, the g state particle absorbs energy from ambient particles, cooling them, and itself jumping to the e state. In the second step, on the outside of the refrigerator where the particles are also at an e state, the particle falls to the g state, releasing energy and heating the outside particles.

  5. Water metering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_metering

    A Coriolis water meter is a precision instrument used to measure the mass flow rate and density of fluids, including water, by utilizing the Coriolis effect. Unlike traditional mechanical meters with moving parts, Coriolis meters use oscillating tubes through which the fluid flows.

  6. Garden hose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garden_hose

    A coiled garden hose. A garden hose, hosepipe, or simply hose is a flexible tube used to convey water. There are a number of common attachments available for the end of the hose, such as sprayers and sprinklers (which are used to concentrate water at one point or to spread it over a large area). Hoses are usually attached to a hose spigot or tap.

    Whether you were overzealous when making dinner, or opted for a night out instead of cooking that fish fillet, we've all been there - stuck with a refrigerator full of leftovers. From the best way ...

  8. Thermal expansion valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_expansion_valve

    Flow control, or metering, of the refrigerant is accomplished by use of a temperature sensing bulb, filled with a gas or liquid charge similar to the one inside the system, that causes the orifice in the valve to open against the spring pressure in the valve body as the temperature on the bulb increases.

  9. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

    This depth is converted to a flow rate according to a theoretical formula of the form = where is the flow rate, is a constant, is the water level, and is an exponent which varies with the device used; or it is converted according to empirically derived level/flow data points (a "flow curve"). The flow rate can then be integrated over time into ...
