How does a mercury boiler work?

A mercury boiler operates by utilizing mercury as a heat transfer fluid. In this system, mercury is heated to high temperatures, allowing it to vaporize and transfer heat efficiently. The vaporized mercury then circulates through the boiler, transferring heat to the water or steam system, which can be used for heating or power generation. The use of mercury, however, poses significant environmental and health risks, making such systems less common and often subject to strict regulations.

How does a back boiler work scientifically?

A boiler works by heating water in an enclosed space. The expansion of water molecules as it transforms from a liquid state into a gaseous one causes the boiler to generate a vast amount of pressure. This is generally the science behind a back boiler.


How do you use a multimeter tester on dryer coils?

Generally, dryer coils either work or they don't. A multimeter can help you determine if a dryer coil is "burned out". If the coil has "continuity", it's probably fine. Generally, if there is a hot spot in the coil it will burn out rapidly.

How does non renewable powerstation work?

A boiler, such as a petrol burner or a nuclear reactor, generates heat. This heat is used to turn water into steam which turns turbines. The turbines are attached to a coil that spins around a metal bar, or a metal bar that spins within a coil (this is called a generator). The water carries on going until it reaches the cooling towers, where it condenses and goes back to the boiler. And that's more or less it, in a nutshell.

How does a tankless hot water heater work?

The heating element whether it be electric or gas is located close to the faucet so that the water flows through and is heated on its way to the faucet therefore you need a separate unit for each sink. Above answer is called a "on demand unit", a tankless coil for a hot water boiler uses a spiral coil of copper that is bolted into your boiler, with the hot combustion gases heatintg the coil of copper that has the domestic cold water flowing thru it, heating the cold water into hot water as it travels to your faucets.

Can you incorporate a solid fuel back boiler into a pressure water system it would be nice not to have to use so much oil and take advatage of our wood burning stove?

Yes, If it is a pressurized system, the water from the back boiler and your oil or gas fired boiler can be mixed. This can also be achieved by using a water to water plate exchanger to preheat the return water from your heating devices. If you have a forced air heating system in the house, a coil can be placed in the main trunk line of the duct work and heated by circulated water from the back boiler.
