    The phase-out of fossil fuel boilers is a set of policies to remove the use of fossil gas (or "natural gas") and other fossil fuels from the heating of buildings and use in appliances. Typically gas is used to heat water, for showering, or central heating.

  5. Fossil fuel phase-out - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fossil_fuel_phase-out

    While crude oil and natural gas are also being phased out in chemical processes (e.g. production of new building blocks for plastics) as the circular economy and biobased economy (e.g. bioplastics) are being developed [17] to reduce plastic pollution, the fossil fuel phase out specifically aims to end the burning of fossil fuels and the consequent production of greenhouse gases.

  6. Critical heat flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_heat_flux

    The convective heat transfer between a uniformly heated wall and the working fluid is described by Newton's law of cooling: = where represents the heat flux, represents the proportionally constant called the heat transfer coefficient, represents the wall temperature and represents the fluid temperature.

  7. Heat of combustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_of_combustion

    The higher heating value takes into account the latent heat of vaporization of water in the combustion products, and is useful in calculating heating values for fuels where condensation of the reaction products is practical (e.g., in a gas-fired boiler used for space heat). In other words, HHV assumes all the water component is in liquid state ...

  8. Fossil fuel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fossil_fuel

    Fossil fuel phase-out is the gradual reduction of the use and production of fossil fuels to zero, to reduce air pollution, limit climate change, and strengthen energy independence. It is part of the ongoing renewable energy transition , but is being hindered by fossil fuel subsidies .

  9. Organic Rankine cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_Rankine_cycle

    T-s diagram for the ideal/real ORC. The working principle of the organic Rankine cycle is the same as that of the Rankine cycle: the working fluid is pumped to a boiler where it is evaporated, passed through an expansion device (turbine, [3] screw, [4] scroll, [5] or other expander), and then through a condenser heat exchanger where it is finally re-condensed.
