2. Oil heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_heater

   An oil heater, also known as an oil-filled heater, oil-filled radiator, or column heater, is a common form of convection heater used in domestic heating. Although filled with oil , it is electrically heated and does not involve burning any oil fuel ; the oil is used as a heat reservoir (buffer).

3. Waste heat recovery unit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waste_heat_recovery_unit

   The heat pipe is mainly used in space, process or air heating, in waste heat from a process is being transferred to the surrounding due to its transfer mechanism. Thermal wheel or rotary heat exchanger: consists of a circular honeycomb matrix of heat absorbing material, which is slowly rotated within the supply and exhaust air streams of an air ...

4. Condensing boiler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensing_boiler

   Condensing boilers are water heaters typically used for heating systems that are fueled by gas or oil. When operated in the correct circumstances, a heating system can achieve high efficiency (greater than 90% on the higher heating value) by condensing water vapour found in the exhaust gases in a heat exchanger to preheat the circulating water.

5. Waste heat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waste_heat

   For example, global forcing from waste heat in 2005 was 0.028 W/m 2, but was +0.39 and +0.68 W/m 2 for the continental United States and western Europe, respectively. [21] Although waste heat has been shown to have influence on regional climates, [22] climate forcing from waste heat is not normally calculated in state-of-the-art global climate ...

6. Biomass heating system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biomass_heating_system

   The oil price increases since 2003 and consequent price increases for natural gas and coal have increased the value of biomass for heat generation. Forest renderings, agricultural waste, and crops grown specifically for energy production become competitive as the prices of energy dense fossil fuels rise.

7. Thermic fluid heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermic_fluid_heater

   A thermic fluid heater (TFH), [1] also known as a thermal oil heater, is a device used for indirect heat transfer through a thermic fluid. It heats the fluid to a desired temperature and then transfers that heat to various processes without any direct contact between the heating source and the product.
