2. Condensate pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensate_pump

   In industrial steam systems the condensate pump is used to collect and return condensate from remote areas of the plant. The steam produced in the boiler can heat equipment and processes a considerable distance away. Once steam is used it turns to hot water or condensate. This pump and possibly many more around the plant returns this hot water ...

3. Heat pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_pump

   e. A heat pump is a device that consumes work (or electricity) to transfer heat from a cold heat sink to a hot heat sink. Specifically, the heat pump transfers thermal energy using a refrigeration cycle, cooling the cool space and warming the warm space. [ 1] In cold weather, a heat pump can move heat from the cool outdoors to warm a house (e.g ...

4. Heat pump and refrigeration cycle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_pump_and...

   Thermodynamic heat pump cycles or refrigeration cycles are the conceptual and mathematical models for heat pump, air conditioning and refrigeration systems. A heat pump is a mechanical system that transmits heat from one location (the "source") at a certain temperature to another location (the "sink" or "heat sink") at a higher temperature. [ 1]

5. Variable refrigerant flow - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_refrigerant_flow

   Variable refrigerant flow ( VRF ), also known as variable refrigerant volume ( VRV ), is an HVAC technology invented by Daikin Industries, Ltd. in 1982. [ 1] Similar to ductless mini-split systems, VRFs use refrigerant as the primary cooling and heating medium, and are usually less complex than conventional chiller -based systems.

6. Ground source heat pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_source_heat_pump

   A ground source heat pump (also geothermal heat pump) is a heating/cooling system for buildings that use a type of heat pump to transfer heat to or from the ground, taking advantage of the relative constancy of temperatures of the earth through the seasons. Ground-source heat pumps (GSHPs) – or geothermal heat pumps (GHP), as they are ...

7. Condensing boiler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensing_boiler

   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 ...
