  2. Circulator pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulator_pump

    The traditional hot water recirculation system uses the existing cold water line as return line from the point of use located farthest from the hot water tank back to the hot water tank. The first of two system types has a pump mounted at the hot water heater while a "normally open" thermostatic control valve gets installed at the farthest ...

  3. Circulating water plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulating_Water_Plant

    A circulating water plant or circulating water system is an arrangement of flow of water in fossil-fuel power station, chemical plants and in oil refineries. The system is required because various industrial process plants uses heat exchanger , and also for active fire protection measures.

  4. Forced circulation boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_circulation_boiler

    In a water tube boiler, the water is recirculated inside until the vapor pressure of the water overcomes the vapor pressure inside the stream drum and becomes saturated steam. The forced circulation boiler begins the same as a natural circulation boiler, at the feed water pump. Water is introduced into the steam drum and is circulated around ...

  5. Circulation evaporator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulation_evaporator

    Tubular forced circulation evaporators employs an axial circulation pump which navigates the flow of liquid in a circular motion through the system's heat exchanger in which it is superheated. Thereafter, when the liquid reaches the separator the liquid pressure decreases dramatically forcing a portion of the liquid to be rapidly boiled off.

  6. Lift coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lift_coefficient

    The lift coefficient C L is defined by [2] [3] = =, where is the lift force, is the relevant surface area and is the fluid dynamic pressure, in turn linked to the fluid density, and to the flow speed.

  7. Countercurrent exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countercurrent_exchange

    Theoretically a similar system could exist or be constructed for heat exchange. In the example shown in the image, water enters at 299 mg/L (NaCl / H 2 O). Water passes because of a small osmotic pressure to the buffer liquid in this example at 300 mg/L (NaCl / H 2 O). Further up the loop there is a continued flow of water out of the tube and ...

  8. Chloralkali process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloralkali_process

    At the anode (A), chloride (Cl −) is oxidized to chlorine. The ion-selective membrane (B) allows the counterion Na+ to freely flow across, but prevents anions such as hydroxide (OH −) and chloride from diffusing across. At the cathode (C), water is reduced to hydroxide and hydrogen gas. The net process is the electrolysis of an aqueous ...

  9. Pascal's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pascal's_law

    Pressure in water and air. Pascal's law applies for fluids. Pascal's principle is defined as: A change in pressure at any point in an enclosed incompressible fluid at rest is transmitted equally and undiminished to all points in all directions throughout the fluid, and the force due to the pressure acts at right angles to the enclosing walls.
