2. Circulator pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulator_pump

   This avoids one of the principal challenges faced by the larger, two-part pumps: maintaining a water-tight seal at the point where the pump drive shaft enters the pump body. Small- to medium-sized circulator pumps are usually supported entirely by the pipe flanges that join them to the rest of the hydronic plumbing. Large pumps are usually pad ...

3. Central heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_heating

   Circulating hot water can be used for central heating. Sometimes these systems are called hydronic heating systems. [22] Common components of a central heating system using water-circulation include: A supply of fuel, electric power or district heating supply lines; A boiler (or a heat exchanger for district heating) which heats water in the system

4. Forced circulation boiler - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_circulation_boiler

   A forced circulation boiler is a boiler where a pump is used to circulate water inside the boiler. This differs from a natural circulation boiler which relies on current density to circulate water inside the boiler. In some forced circulation boilers, the water is circulated at twenty times the rate of evaporation. [1]

   These later developed into the fire-tube boiler. forced-circulation boiler: boilers where circulation is forced by a pump, rather than relying on thermosyphon effect. These may use either forced-water-circulation (e.g. La Mont) or forced-steam-circulation (e.g. Löffler). [25] Foster-Wheeler boiler. D type; controlled-superheat type

6. High efficiency glandless circulating pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_efficiency_glandless...

   These types of pumps are used primarily in heating and air conditioning systems within both residential and commercial buildings such as offices and apartment complexes. The pump is the central component of these systems and accounts for most of the electricity usage within the system, making its design key to an increase in efficiency and ...

7. Hydronics - Wikipedia

   In general, valves nearest to the boiler should vent the slowest, and valves furthest from the boiler should vent the fastest. [ citation needed ] Ideally, steam should reach each valve and close each and every valve at the same time, so that the system can work at maximal efficiency; this condition is known as a "balanced" system.
