Upright non-flued liquefied petroleum gas heater, 1970s A wall mounted gas heater that runs on either propane or natural gas. A gas heater is a space heater used to heat a room or outdoor area by burning natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, propane, or butane. Indoor household gas heaters can be broadly categorized in one of two ways: flued or ...
Bake-out, in several areas of technology and fabrication, and in building construction, refers to the process of using high heat temperature (), and possibly vacuum, to remove volatile compounds from materials and objects before placing them into situations where the slow release of the same volatile compounds would contaminate the contents of a container or vessel, spoil a vacuum, or cause ...
An application example is a room temperature controller connected to a heat recovery unit, which is connected to a boiler. The heat recovery unit is then functioning as gateway. In another possible configuration, a thermostat or room controller is connected to a sequencer with further Opentherm interfaces connected to more than one boiler.
The illustration is the interior of a common two wire heat-only household thermostat, used to regulate a gas-fired heater via an electric gas valve. Similar mechanisms may also be used to control oil furnaces, boilers, boiler zone valves , electric attic fans, electric furnaces, electric baseboard heaters, and household appliances such as ...
Barium iodide is an inorganic compound with the formula BaI 2.The compound exists as an anhydrous and a hydrate (BaI 2 (H 2 O) 2), both of which are white solids.When heated, hydrated barium iodide converts to the anhydrous salt.
A thermosiphon (or thermosyphon) is a device that employs a method of passive heat exchange based on natural convection, which circulates a fluid without the necessity of a mechanical pump. Thermosiphoning is used for circulation of liquids and volatile gases in heating and cooling applications such as heat pumps, water heaters, boilers and ...
Graduating college no longer gives students a leg up in the workforce. They need real world experience, too. Now, colleges are stepping up their internships and co-op programs to fill the ...
Electricity is required to heat the ignition source, with systems designed to be compatible with 6-volt, 12-volt, and 24-volt automotive and aircraft electrical systems. Most gasoline heaters produce between 5,000 and 50,000 BTU per hour. A built-in safety switch prevents fuel from flowing unless the fan is working.
