  2. Neher–McGrath method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neher–McGrath_method

    For uninsulated cables (typically used in outdoor overhead installations), the tensile strength of the cable (as affected by temperature) is normally the limiting material property. The Neher–McGrath method is the electrical industry standard for calculating cable ampacity, most often employed via lookup in tables of precomputed results for ...

  3. Trace heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_heating

    Trace heating may be used to protect pipes from freezing, to maintain a constant flow temperature in hot water systems, or to maintain process temperatures for piping that must transport substances that solidify at ambient temperatures. Electric trace heating cables are an alternative to steam trace heating where steam is unavailable or ...

  4. Heating element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heating_element

    A heating element is a device used for conversion of electric energy into heat, consisting of a heating resistor and accessories. [1] Heat is generated by the passage of electric current through a resistor through a process known as Joule heating. Heating elements are used in household appliances, industrial equipment, and scientific ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60364

    IEC 60364 Electrical Installations for Buildings is the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)'s international standard on electrical installations of buildings.This standard is an attempt to harmonize national wiring standards in an IEC standard and is published in the European Union by CENELEC as "HD 60364".

  6. Underfloor heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underfloor_heating

    Electric floor heating installation, cement being applied. Electric systems are used only for heating and employ non-corrosive, flexible heating elements including cables, pre-formed cable mats, bronze mesh, and carbon films. Due to their low profile, they can be installed in a thermal mass or directly under floor finishes.

  7. Ampacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampacity

    If heat is produced at a sufficient rate, the conductor temperature rises and the insulation can be damaged or ultimately the conductor itself can sag or melt. The ampacity rating for a conductor is based on the conductor diameter, material used (copper or aluminum), the rated maximum application temperature, and the installation conditions.

  8. NTU method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NTU_Method

    The number of transfer units (NTU) method is used to calculate the rate of heat transfer in heat exchangers (especially parallel flow, counter current, and cross-flow exchangers) when there is insufficient information to calculate the log mean temperature difference (LMTD). Alternatively, this method is useful for determining the expected heat ...

  9. Linear heat detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_Heat_Detection

    Linear heat detection (LHD) cable is essentially a two-core cable terminated by an end-of-line resistor (resistance varies with application). The two cores are separated by a polymer plastic, that is designed to melt at a specific temperature (commonly 68 °C for building applications [1]), and without which causes the two cores to short.
