Company Profile:
A type of heat pump that transfers heat in outdoor air to water for space or water heating.
Industry:Energy
A type of heat pump that transfers heat from outdoor air to indoor air during the heating season, and works in reverse during the cooling season.
Industry:Energy
A type of furnace or reactor in which the emission of sulfur compounds is lowered by the addition of crushed limestone in the fluidized bed thus obviating the need for much of the expensive stack gas clean-up equipment. The particles are collected and recirculated, after passing through a conventional bed, and cooled by boiler internals.
Industry:Energy
A type of furnace or reactor in which fuel particles are combusted while suspended in a stream of hot gas.
Industry:Energy
A type of furnace in which fuel is spread, automatically or mechanically, across the furnace grate.
Industry:Energy
A type of furnace in which fuel is burned and the heat is used to produce steam.
Industry:Energy
A type of florescent light ballast that uses a magnetic core to regulate the voltage of a florescent lamp.
Industry:Energy
A type of electricity transmission and distribution by which electricity flows in one direction through the conductor; usually relatively low voltage and high current; typically abbreviated as dc.
Industry:Energy
A type of electrical current, the direction of which is reversed at regular intervals or cycles; in the U.S. the standard is 120 reversals or 60 cycles per second; typically abbreviated as AC.
Industry:Energy
A type of electric generator that produces alternating current that matches an existing power source.
