  2. Circulator pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulator_pump

    A circulator pump or circulating pump is a specific type of pump used to circulate gases, liquids, or slurries in a closed circuit with small elevation changes. They are commonly found circulating water in a hydronic heating or cooling system.

  3. Thermosiphon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermosiphon

    Thermosyphon circulation in a simple solar water heater (not a working model; there is no water supply to replenish the tank when the tap is used). 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.

  4. Forced circulation boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_circulation_boiler

    In water tube boilers, the way the water is recirculated inside the boiler before becoming steam can be described as either natural circulation or forced circulation. 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.

    “A conventional tank water heater can last as long as 12-15 years, but it is common to see them fail in 8-10 years if they are not properly maintained,” Davis explains.

  6. Reciprocating pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocating_pump

    Reciprocating pump has wide application and to clear the basic idea it is necessary to know the basic parts. The basic parts along with its function; Water reservoir - it is not a part of reciprocating pump, however, it is the main source where from the reciprocating pump takes the water. It may be a source of other fluid as well.

  7. Tankless water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankless_water_heating

    With a central water heater of any type, any cold water standing in the pipes between the heater and the point-of-use is dumped down the drain as hot water travels from the heater. This water wastage can be avoided if a recirculator pump is installed, but at the cost of the energy to run the pump, plus the energy to reheat the water ...

  8. 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.

  9. Boiling water reactor - Wikipedia

    The water then goes through either jet pumps or internal recirculation pumps that provide additional pumping power (hydraulic head). The water now makes a 180-degree turn and moves up through the lower core plate into the nuclear core, where the fuel elements heat the water.
