2. Thermostatic radiator valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostatic_radiator_valve

   A thermostatic radiator valve on position 2 (15–17 °C) Installed thermostatic radiator valve with the adjustment wheel removed A thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) is a self-regulating valve fitted to hot water heating system radiator, to control the temperature of a room by changing the flow of hot water to the radiator.

3. Wax thermostatic element - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wax_thermostatic_element

   The wax thermostatic element was invented in 1934 by Sergius Vernet (1899–1968). [1] Its principal application is in automotive thermostats used in the engine cooling system. The first applications in the plumbing and heating industries were in Sweden (1970) and in Switzerland (1971).

4. Thermal expansion valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_expansion_valve

   A thermal expansion valve or thermostatic expansion valve (often abbreviated as TEV, TXV, or TX valve) is a component in vapor-compression refrigeration and air conditioning systems that controls the amount of refrigerant released into the evaporator and is intended to regulate the superheat of the refrigerant that flows out of the evaporator ...

   The first product was an expansion valve for refrigeration units, it was developed after studying imported valves from the US. [1] In 1941, activities expanded to products for heating. [1] The thermostatic radiator valve was invented by Mads Clausen in 1943, later patented, and in 1952 promoted as an energy saving device. [2]

7. Thermostat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostat

   Purely mechanical control has been localised steam or hot-water radiator bi-metallic thermostats which regulated the individual flow. However, thermostatic radiator valves (TRV) are now being widely used. Purely mechanical thermostats are used to regulate dampers in some rooftop turbine vents, reducing building heat loss in cool or cold periods.

8. Hydronics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydronics

   The thermostatic valves close when they become hot; in the most common kind, the vapor pressure of a small amount of alcohol in the valve exerts the force to actuate the valve and prevent steam from leaving the radiator. When the valve cools, air enters the system to replace the condensing steam. Some more modern valves can be adjusted to allow ...

9. Reversing valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversing_valve

   A reversing valve removed from an HVAC heat pump for replacement. A reversing valve is a type of valve and is a component in a heat pump, that changes the direction of refrigerant flow. By reversing the flow of refrigerant, the heat pump refrigeration cycle is changed from cooling to heating or vice versa. This allows a residence or facility to ...
