    Explores how a central heating system functions. Epilogue: A life-size model of a central heating system, used during the show, begins to spray water everywhere. Historical Figures Mentioned: Ancient Romans, Normans, Lord Burlington, Robert Bunsen

  3. Central heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_heating

    The English writer Hugh Plat proposed a steam-based central heating system for a greenhouse in 1594, although this was an isolated occurrence and was not followed up until the 18th century. Colonel Coke devised a system of pipes that would carry steam around the house from a central boiler, but it was James Watt the Scottish inventor who was ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypocaust

    Hypocaust under the floor in a Roman villa in Vieux-la-Romaine, near Caen, France. A hypocaust (Latin: hypocaustum) is a system of central heating in a building that produces and circulates hot air below the floor of a room, and may also warm the walls with a series of pipes through which the hot air passes.

  5. Air lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_lock

    Air lock problems often occur when one is trying to recommission a system after it has been deliberately (for servicing) or accidentally emptied. Take, for example, a central heating system using a circulating pump to pump water through radiators. When filling such a system, air is trapped in the radiators. This air has to be vented using screw ...

  6. Furnace (central heating) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furnace_(central_heating)

    Air convection heating systems have been in use for over a century. Older systems rely on a passive air circulation system where the greater density of cooler air causes it to sink into the furnace area below, through air return registers in the floor, and the lesser density of warmed air causes it to rise in the ductwork; the two forces acting ...

  7. 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.

  8. Building automation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_automation

    Building automation (BAS), also known as building management system (BMS) or building energy management system (BEMS), is the automatic centralized control of a building's HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning), electrical, lighting, shading, access control, security systems, and other interrelated systems. Some objectives of building ...

  9. Constant air volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_air_volume

    Constant air volume (CAV) is a type of heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning system. In a simple CAV system, the supply air flow rate is constant, but the supply air temperature is varied to meet the thermal loads of a space. [1] Most CAV systems are small, and serve a single thermal zone.
