  2. HVAC control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HVAC_control_system

    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 ...

  3. Absorption refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_refrigerator

    Common absorption refrigerators use a refrigerant with a very low boiling point (less than −18 °C (0 °F)) just like compressor refrigerators.Compression refrigerators typically use an HCFC or HFC, while absorption refrigerators typically use ammonia or water and need at least a second fluid able to absorb the coolant, the absorbent, respectively water (for ammonia) or brine (for water).

  4. RF switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RF_switch

    An RF switch or microwave switch is a device to route high frequency signals through transmission paths. RF (radio frequency) and microwave switches are used extensively in microwave test systems for signal routing between instruments and devices under test (DUT). Incorporating a switch into a switch matrix system enables you to route signals ...

  5. Adsorption refrigeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adsorption_refrigeration

    The refrigerants used in absorption systems are ammonia, water, or methanol, etc, which all experience phase changes between the vapor and liquid states - the same as in vapor compression refrigeration; while the adsorbent is a solid, such as silica gel, activated carbon, or zeolite. [1]

  6. RF switch matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RF_Switch_Matrix

    The Switch Matrix is made up of discrete electronic components including RF switches and signal conditioners that are mounted together in a mechanical infrastructure or housing. Cables interconnect the switches and signal conditioners. The switch matrix employs a driver circuit and power supply to power and drive the switches and signal ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_HVAC_terms

    A two-stage air conditioner is designed to operate on high and low settings during different weather conditions and seasons. The high setting is used during extreme weather, and the low setting is used during moderate weather. This type of air conditioner produces a balanced temperature and is in use for a longer period of time.

  8. Heat pump and refrigeration cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_pump_and...

    The absorption cycle is similar to the compression cycle, but depends on the partial pressure of the refrigerant vapor. In the absorption system, the compressor is replaced by an absorber and a generator. The absorber dissolves the refrigerant in a suitable liquid (dilute solution) and therefore the dilute solution becomes a strong solution.

  9. Einstein refrigerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein_refrigerator

    The Einstein–Szilard or Einstein refrigerator is an absorption refrigerator which has no moving parts, operates at constant pressure, and requires only a heat source to operate. It was jointly invented in 1926 by Albert Einstein and his former student Leó Szilárd, who patented it in the U.S. on November 11, 1930 (U.S. patent 1,781,541).
