Why do you have to vent a dryer and not an oven?

An oven ought to be vented. The purpose of the range hood is to pull out the water that bakes out of the food every bit as much as to pull out grease, smoke and strong odors. Both the oven and the dryer dump moisture into the air. If that moisture is not vented out of the house it will condense on cold walls and windows. Moisture grows mold and causes other problems. Of the two appliances, the dryer dumps many more times the volume of water vapor into the air. If both appliances are fueled by natural gas, burning the gas will also produce water vapor. Again, the oven does not use nearly a fraction of the gas that the dryer uses so the vapor can be dumped into the house without too much problem. Many houses during the winter are drier than most deserts because the moisture content of cold outside air is very low. When that air is heated, its moisture content remains the same but its relative humidity drops. If your windows sweat, that is a good sign that excessive moisture is in your house and you need to be venting your appliances or running the exhaust fan during hot showers.


How does a kerosene heater heat?

A kerosene heater has a wick made of fiberglass that is connected to a kerosene tank. When the wick is lit, the kerosene keeps the wick burning, and a convection unit in the heater uses the flame to heat the air. In some kerosene heaters, there is a fan to blow the heated air into the room to heat it faster.


How many kilocalories of heat does the operation of a 1080 W hair dryer produce each second?

If you assume all of the 1080 W of electrical power is converted to heat flow then you can use the conversion 1 W = 2.39 x 10^-4 KCal/sec to get 1080 W = .258 KCal/sec. There is probably less then that as some of the wattage has to run the fan motor, but it gives you an upper limit on how much heat flow to exoect.

What do you do after a Cockatiels bath?

After you give a cockatiel a bath you should find some why to dry it off such as a handheld fan, or towel drying. In some cases you may use a blow dryer but only if the blow dryer has a low tempertature that you can set it on. I have a cockatiel and I use choose to blow dry her. My blow- dryer has a cold, warm, and hot tempertutre and a speed button. The speed button determines if you want the wind to be soft or to be as hard as blowing your face off. If you do choose to blow dry your cockatiel find a low speed(so it doesn't freak your bird out) and a low temperature.
