  2. Chiller boiler system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiller_boiler_system

    A chiller boiler system is a hydronic system. It uses water instead of air to heat and cool a structure. A properly designed hydronic system is usually more efficient than a standard forced air system. [1] Chiller boiler systems use radiant heating and cooling or fan coil systems to condition a home or business. This allows for multiple zones ...

    bundled-tube water-tube boiler; early large-tube water-tube boilers where the tubes were grouped into bundles (of 19, for geometrical reasons) that shared a common header, so as to improve shared access for tube cleaning. [14] Butterley boiler: a form of Cornish boiler where the furnace was opened up into a "whistle mouth", enlarging the grate ...

    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 the first to build a working system in his house. [12] A central boiler supplied high-pressure steam that then distributed the heat within the building through a system of pipes embedded in ...

    The layout of these 'octopus’ furnaces and their duct systems is optimized with various diameters of large dampered ducts. Forced-air gas furnace, design circa 1991. By comparison, most modern "warm air" furnaces typically use a fan to circulate air to the rooms of house and pull cooler air back to the furnace for reheating; this is called ...

    Even homes or buildings with high demand for hot water may realize some level of savings. If instant hot water at taps at limited hours is a priority, a recirculation system can be accommodated by using an aquastat and timer to decrease the added heat loss from the recirculation system.

  7. Boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler

    A boiler is a closed vessel in which fluid (generally water) is heated. The fluid does not necessarily boil. The heated or vaporized fluid exits the boiler for use in various processes or heating applications, [1] [page needed] [2] [page needed] including water heating, central heating, boiler-based power generation, cooking, and sanitation.

  8. Hydronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydronics

    These systems depend on the proper operation of thermostatic air-venting valves located on radiators throughout the heated area. When the system is not in use, these valves are open to the atmosphere, and radiators and pipes contain air. When a heating cycle begins, the boiler produces steam, which expands and displaces the air in the system.

  9. District heating - Wikipedia

    The Spittelau incineration plant is one of several plants that provide district heating in Vienna, Austria. Animated image showing how district heating works. District heating (also known as heat networks) is a system for distributing heat generated in a centralized location through a system of insulated pipes for residential and commercial heating requirements such as space heating and water ...
