  2. Thermal efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_efficiency

    A counter flow heat exchanger is the most efficient type of heat exchanger in transferring heat energy from one circuit to the other [citation needed]. However, for a more complete picture of heat exchanger efficiency, exergetic considerations must be taken into account. Thermal efficiencies of an internal combustion engine are typically higher ...

  3. 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.

  4. Supercritical steam generator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercritical_steam_generator

    A supercritical steam generator is a type of boiler that operates at supercritical pressure and temperature, frequently used in the production of electric power. In contrast to a subcritical boiler in which steam bubbles form, a supercritical steam generator operates above the critical pressure – 22 megapascals (3,200 psi ) and temperature ...

  5. Carnot heat engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnot_heat_engine

    The vertical axis is temperature, the horizontal axis is entropy. The Carnot cycle when acting as a heat engine consists of the following steps: Reversible isothermal expansion of the gas at the "hot" temperature, T H (isothermal heat addition or absorption). During this step (A to B) the gas is allowed to expand and it does work on the ...

  6. Boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler

    A boiler is a closed vessel in which fluid (generally water) is heated.The fluid does not necessarily boil.The heated or vaporized fluid exits the boiler for use in various processes or heating applications, [1] [page needed] [2] [page needed] including water heating, central heating, boiler-based power generation, cooking, and sanitation.

  7. Coefficient of performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coefficient_of_performance

    For a heating system this would mean two things: Reducing the output temperature to around 30 °C (86 °F) which requires piped floor, wall or ceiling heating, or oversized water to air heaters. Increasing the input temperature (e.g. by using an oversized ground source or by access to a solar-assisted thermal bank [10]).
