Company Profile:
A type of cooling system that uses a charging and discharging cycle with a thermal or latent heat storage subsystem.
Industry:Energy
A type of combustion heating system in which combustion air is drawn directly from outside and the products of combustion are vented directly outside. These features are beneficial in tight, energy-efficient homes because they will not depressurize a home and cause air infiltration, and backdrafting of other combustion appliances.
Industry:Energy
A type of combustion heating appliance in which the combustion gases are vented to the outside, either with a fan (forced) or by natural convection.
Industry:Energy
A type of ceiling and roof assembly that has no attic.
Industry:Energy
A type of building ventilation system that uses fans or blowers to provide fresh air to rooms when the forces of air pressure and gravity are not enough to circulate air through a building.
Industry:Energy
A type of automatic thermostat (used on solar heating systems) that responds to temperature differences (between collectors and the storage components) so as to regulate the functioning of appliances (to switch transfer fluid pumps on and off).
Industry:Energy
A type of anaerobic digester that has a mechanical mixing system and where temperature and volume are controlled to maximize the anaerobic digestion process for biological waste treatment, methane production, and odor control.
Industry:Energy
A type of anaerobic digester that has a horizontal tank in which a constant volume of material is added and forces material in the tank to move through the tank and be digested.
Industry:Energy
A type of air cooling device that uses absorption cooling to cool interior spaces.
Industry:Energy
A type of air compressor in which air is compressed in a series of stages as it flows axially through a decreasing tubular area.
