  2. Heat pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_pump

    An air source heat pump (ASHP) is a heat pump that can absorb heat from air outside a building and release it inside; it uses the same vapor-compression refrigeration process and much the same equipment as an air conditioner, but in the opposite direction. ASHPs are the most common type of heat pump and, usually being smaller, tend to be used ...

  3. Conjugate convective heat transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_Convective_Heat...

    The contemporary conjugate convective heat transfer model was developed after computers came into wide use in order to substitute the empirical relation of proportionality of heat flux to temperature difference with heat transfer coefficient which was the only tool in theoretical heat convection since the times of Newton. This model, based on a ...

  4. Space heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_heater

    Oil heaters transfer heat by convection and radiation. [4] They can silently heat larger rooms, but take longer to heat up. Like infrared models, they lack a fan, but circulate heat according to a room's air patterns, which is why it may take longer for a user to discern a difference in temperature.

  5. Radiator (heating) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiator_(heating)

    Baseboard convectors are designed to heat the air in the room using convection to transfer heat from the radiators to the surrounding air. [4] They do this by drawing cool air in at the bottom, warming the air as it passes over the radiator fins, and discharging the heated air at the top. This sets up convective loops of air movement within a room.

  6. Heat press - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_press

    A heat press is a machine engineered to imprint a design or graphic on a substrate, such as a t-shirt, with the application of heat and pressure for a preset period of time. While heat presses are often used to apply designs to fabrics , specially designed presses can also be used to imprint designs on mugs, plates, jigsaw puzzles, caps, and ...

  7. Convection (heat transfer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convection_(Heat_transfer)

    As a consequence, the fluid is displaced while the cooler fluid gets denser and the fluid sinks. Thus, the hotter volume transfers heat towards the cooler volume of that fluid. [2] Familiar examples are the upward flow of air due to a fire or hot object and the circulation of water in a pot that is heated from below.

  9. Heat transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer

    The process of heat transfer from one place to another place without the movement of particles is called conduction, such as when placing a hand on a cold glass of water—heat is conducted from the warm skin to the cold glass, but if the hand is held a few inches from the glass, little conduction would occur since air is a poor conductor of heat.
