  2. Water recycling shower - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_recycling_shower

    External hot water is used to maintain temperature, with incoming hot water replacing the used water within the loop. In addition to replacement, water within the loop is filtered and purified with UV light. [11] For users unable or unwilling to use the recycling mode, the e-Shower offers a classic shower where all the water is drained. [12]

  3. 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 ...

  4. Hydrothermal circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrothermal_circulation

    Hydrothermal circulation in the oceans is the passage of the water through mid-oceanic ridge systems.. The term includes both the circulation of the well-known, high-temperature vent waters near the ridge crests, and the much-lower-temperature, diffuse flow of water through sediments and buried basalts further from the ridge crests. [3]

  5. Direct exchange geothermal heat pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_exchange_geothermal...

    DX system being drilled in the 1980s. A direct exchange (DX) geothermal heat pump is a type of ground source heat pump in which refrigerant circulates through copper tubing placed in the ground unlike other ground source heat pumps where refrigerant is restricted to the heat pump itself with a secondary loop in the ground filled with a mixture of water and anti-freeze.

  6. Pipe network analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_network_analysis

    To direct water to many users, municipal water supplies often route it through a water supply network. A major part of this network will consist of interconnected pipes. This network creates a special class of problems in hydraulic design, with solution methods typically referred to as pipe network analysis. Water utilities generally make use ...

  7. GE BWR - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GE_BWR

    Variable speed pumps were replaced with two-speed pumps (each rated at 35,400 US gallons per minute (2.23 m 3 /s) for a discharge pressure head of 865 feet (264 m)), and a flow control valve (adjustable from 22% open to 100% open with a linear flow response) was added to each loop for use in regulating recirculation flow (capable of regulating ...

  8. Closed-loop geothermal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closed-loop_geothermal

    Closed-loop geothermal systems (also known as “advanced geothermal systems” or “AGS”) are a type of engineered geothermal energy system containing subsurface working fluid that is heated in a hot rock reservoir without direct contact with rock pores and fractures.: [1] [2] [3] Instead, the subsurface working fluid stays inside a closed loop of deeply buried pipes that conduct Earth’s ...

  9. Geothermal heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geothermal_heating

    In these areas, water or steam may be captured from natural hot springs and piped directly into radiators or heat exchangers. Alternatively, the heat may come from waste heat supplied by co-generation from a geothermal electrical plant or from deep wells into hot aquifers. Direct geothermal heating is far more efficient than geothermal ...
