2. Tankless water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankless_water_heating

   Gas water heaters have an exhaust vent or one to two exhaust pipes on the top, and still require electric power for electronics, sensing and ignition. A three-phase, 21 kW, 400-volt tankless water heater in Europe, with new European color coding for three-phase power. There are also heaters that use several single-phase circuits instead.

3. Evaporative cooler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_cooler

   Porous pottery and coarse cloth maximize the area for evaporation. An evaporative cooler (also known as evaporative air conditioner, swamp cooler, swamp box, desert cooler and wet air cooler) is a device that cools air through the evaporation of water. Evaporative cooling differs from other air conditioning systems, which use vapor-compression ...

4. Air gap (plumbing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_gap_(plumbing)

   A common use of the term "air gap" in domestic plumbing refers to a specialized fixture that provides backflow prevention for an installed dishwasher. This "air gap" is visible above the sink as a small cylindrical fixture mounted near the faucet. In the base cabinet under the sink, the drain hose from the dishwasher feeds the "top" of the air ...

5. Computer cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_cooling

   Computer cooling. A finned air cooled heatsink with fan clipped onto a CPU, with a smaller passive heatsink without fan in the background. A 3-fan heatsink mounted on a video card to maximize cooling efficiency of the GPU and surrounding components. Commodore 128DCR computer's switch-mode power supply, with a user-installed 60 mm cooling fan.

6. Portable water purification - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_water_purification

   Portable water purification unit used by International Red Cross and Red Crescent. Portable water purification devices are self-contained, easily transported units used to purify water from untreated sources (such as rivers, lakes, and wells) for drinking purposes. Their main function is to eliminate pathogens, and often also of suspended ...

7. Thermal management (electronics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_management...

   While a heat sink is a static object, a fan often aids a heat sink by providing increased airflow over the heat sink—thus maintaining a larger temperature gradient by replacing the warmed air more quickly than passive convection achieves alone—this is known as a forced-air system. Ideally, heat sinks are made from a good thermal conductor ...
