Describe how the energy changes from a usable form to a less usable form in a building's heating system?
While producing heat energy is precisely the purpose of a heating system, once any kind of energy is converted into heat, it can no longer be converted back to other forms of energy - at least, not all of it.
What exactly do Heating Engineers do?
Heating Engineers are involved in the designing and implementation of heating systems and climate control of buildings. They calculate heating needs by measuring the space and then design or choose the heating system that will meet the needs. They may be involved in the manufacturing of custom equipment and oversee the installation as well as troubleshoot problems of a buildings heating system and needs.
Which type of central heating system is used when heating many buildings from a central location?
a hot water or steam boiler
What is a pig-back heating system?
a heating system that is used for helping the main system or just to be energy efficient, they are usually pointless
What is the original source of energy for this heating system?
sunlight
How is the heating system radiator and conduction related?
A type of heating system uses a radiator in which thermal energy is transferred by conduction
Where is a central heating system used?
In most buildings in most developed countries that have cool climates.
What system uses radiators to transfer thermal energy?
A radiator heating system.
Who invented the heating sistem?
The ancient Romans are credited with developing the first central heating system known as a hypocaust, which circulated hot air under the floors and through pipes in the walls of buildings. The modern forced-air heating system was invented by American engineer Alice Parker in 1919, allowing for more efficient and effective heating in homes and buildings.
What does radiant heating do that saves energy?
Radiant heat is an excellent way to save energy. The heating system lays beneath your floor and the heat radiates up. It is more energy efficient in that there is more area radiating heat than other heating otions and thus quicker heat returns. This causes your heating system to run less and save you money and energy.
