2. Thermostat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostat

   The tube ends in a chamber sealed by a diaphragm. As the thermostat heats up, the gas expands applying pressure to the diaphragm which reduces the flow of gas to the burner. Pneumatic thermostats. A pneumatic thermostat is a thermostat that controls a heating or cooling system via a series of air-filled control tubes. This "control air" system ...

3. Nosé–Hoover thermostat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nosé–Hoover_thermostat

   The Nosé–Hoover thermostat is a deterministic algorithm for constant-temperature molecular dynamics simulations. It was originally developed by Nosé and was improved further by Hoover. Although the heat bath of Nosé–Hoover thermostat consists of only one imaginary particle, simulation systems achieve realistic constant-temperature ...

4. Balance point temperature - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_point_temperature

   The balance point temperature is mathematically defined as: Equation 1: tbalance = tthermostat - Q IHG + Q SOL U bldg. Where: tbalance is the balance point outdoor air temperature, given in °C (°F). tThermostat is the building thermostat set-point temperature, given in °C (°F). QIHG is the internal heat generation rate per unit floor area ...

   According to the U.S. Department of Energy, people can save up to 10% per year on heating and cooling expenses by dialing their thermostat back eight hours a day from its normal setting, between 7 ...

6. Andersen thermostat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andersen_thermostat

   The Andersen thermostat is a proposal in molecular dynamics simulation for maintaining constant temperature conditions. [1] [2] It is based on periodic reassignment of the velocities of atoms or molecules. For each atom or molecule, the reassigned velocity is picked randomly according to Maxwell–Boltzmann statistics for the given temperature.

7. Wax thermostatic element - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wax_thermostatic_element

   The wax thermostatic element was invented in 1934 by Sergius Vernet (1899–1968). [1] Its principal application is in automotive thermostats used in the engine cooling system. The first applications in the plumbing and heating industries were in Sweden (1970) and in Switzerland (1971). Wax thermostatic elements transform heat energy into ...
