  2. Stock tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stock_tank

    Stock tanks can be repurposed as backyard pools, or "stock tank pools," using chlorine tabs and a filter pump. Stock tanks are increasingly used as "rustic" backyard above-ground pools, or "stock tank pools" by retrofitting a filter pump [4] and adding chlorine or stabilized hydrogen peroxide [5] to keep the water clean throughout the summer.

  3. Thermodynamic solar panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_solar_panel

    Instead of a large fan to take energy from the air, it has a flat plate collector. This means the system gains energy from the sun as well as the ambient air. [1] Thermodynamic water heaters use a compressor to transfer the collected heat from the panel to the hot water system using refrigerant fluid that circulates in a closed cycle. [citation ...

  4. Storage water heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Storage_water_heater

    Solar heat is clean and renewable. This is the most modern system. Increasingly, solar powered water heaters are being used. Their solar thermal collectors are installed outside dwellings, typically on the roof or walls or nearby, and the potable hot water storage tank is typically a pre-existing or new conventional water heater, or a water heater specifically designed for solar thermal.

  5. Thermal energy storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_energy_storage

    Another promising way to store solar energy for electricity and heat production is a so-called molecular solar thermal system (MOST). With this approach a molecule is converted by photoisomerization into a higher-energy isomer. Photoisomerization is a process in which one (cis trans) isomer is converted into another by light (solar energy).

  6. Deicing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deicing

    An Aeroflot Airbus A330 being de-iced at Sheremetyevo International Airport Econ Salt Spreader. De-icing is the process of removing snow, ice or frost from a surface. Anti-icing is the application of chemicals that not only de-ice but also remain on a surface and continue to delay the reformation of ice for a certain period of time, or prevent adhesion of ice to make mechanical removal easier.

  7. Rubbermaid - Wikipedia

    Rubbermaid is an American manufacturer and distributor of household items. A subsidiary of Newell Brands , it is best known for producing food storage containers and trash cans . It also produces sheds , step stools , closets and shelving, laundry baskets , bins, air fresheners and other household items.

  8. Solar water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_water_heating

    When a solar water heating and hot-water central heating system are used together, solar heat will either be concentrated in a pre-heating tank that feeds into the tank heated by the central heating, or the solar heat exchanger will replace the lower heating element and the upper element will remain to provide for supplemental heat. However ...

  9. Layered charge storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Layered_charge_storage

    Layered or stratified charge storage is hot water storage tank, typically for solar thermal energy. The warmest storage layer is the top storage cylinder and below this there are colder storage layers through natural layering. The water is fed into different storage levels, depending on the available feed temperature and current temperature ...
