Mainly convection I should think, if it transfers heat to a water or air heating system. There will be some radiation and conduction to the area immediately surrounding it.

Do a heating furnace use gas coal wood or fuel to work?

yes heating furnace use coal and wood to heat and work.Because you cannot get such high temperature without that .


How do you use spasimodic in a sentence?

I finally had the repairman to fix the furnace, the heat it produced was spasmodic.


I have an International Comfort Products Furnace Model NFCP2400D1 and want to wire it to a heat only thermostat. Can anyone tell me how to do that?

If the furnace is a single stage heat model. Use R,W and G at the stat and the furnace. This info is in the Installation Manual. R is 24 volt hot,W is heat and G is fan.


Does a furnace use radiation conduction or convection how do you know?

All three.A furnace burns something, this creates heat which can dissipate in those 3 ways.All 3 occur:Radiation: the fire radiates heat which can be seen with infrared goggles.Convection: The fire heats up air which rizes and leaves the system.Conduction: The fire heats up the materials of the furnace, causing the heat energy to heat up the air on the outside of the furnace, which in turn convect.


What is a two phase furnace?

A two phase furnace includes 2 types of heat. Usually it is composed of an electric heat pump and also a nat. gas/ propane heat source when the temperature drops below a set range. The reason they use these is because heat pumps are very efficient when there's not a large temperature change required, but they're efficiency drops dramatically when the outside temperature (or ground temperature) drops below freezing. The only other two-phase furnace would be a two-phase electric (as opposed to a three-phase electrical furnace.) But I don't think you're asking about 2 vs 3 phase electrical furnace systems... Those are quite rare.


What instrument is used to measure temperature of heat treatment furnace?

Optical Pyrometer


What are the types of central heating for condo?

Some common types of central heating systems for condos include forced air systems, radiant floor heating, and heat pumps. Forced air systems use a furnace to heat air, which is then distributed throughout the condo via ductwork. Radiant floor heating involves warm water or electric coils installed beneath the floor, heating the space from the ground up. Heat pumps use electricity to transfer heat from the outside air or ground into the condo, providing both heating and cooling.


Can you use jet fuel in a home heat oil furnaces?

It would depend on the type of burner in your oil furnace and the type of jet fuel. I recommend that you contact the manufacturer of your furnace first.

What does a Solar Furness do?

A solar furnace creates heat by concentrating sunlight through the use of reflectors. It is used for cooking and generating electricity.


How is iron recovered from its ore?

How do we get iron from its ore? Heat. Lots of heat. We use a blast furnace to smelt the ore and get pig iron. Further processing yields cast iron or steel. Use the link below to get the scoop.


When should you use em heat on the thermostat?

EM (or emergency heat) can be used if you have a problem with your other heat source such as a heat pump. In most cases, you will not need this but what it does is bi-passes the primary heat source and allows your secondary heat source (normally your furnace) to become the primary.
