  2. Thermal insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_insulation

    Thermal insulation is the reduction of heat transfer (i.e., the transfer of thermal energy between objects of differing temperature) between objects in thermal contact or in range of radiative influence. [1] Thermal insulation can be achieved with specially engineered methods or processes, as well as with suitable object shapes and materials.

  3. Boiler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler

    A boiler is a closed vessel in which fluid (generally water) is heated. The fluid does not necessarily boil. The heated or vaporized fluid exits the boiler for use in various processes or heating applications, [1] [page needed] [2] [page needed] including water heating, central heating, boiler-based power generation, cooking, and sanitation.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

    Insulation is a barrier material to resist/reduce substance (water, vapor, etc. ) /energy (sound, heat, electric, etc.) to transfer from one side to another. Heat/ Thermal Insulation is a barrier material to resist / block / reflect the heat energy (either one or more of the Conduction, Convection or Radiation) to transfer from one side to another.

  6. Pipe insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pipe_insulation

    Insulated hot water supply and return hydronic piping on a gas-fired boiler. Since pipework can operate at temperatures far removed from the ambient temperature, and the rate of heat flow from a pipe is related to the temperature differential between the pipe and the surrounding ambient air, heat flow from pipework can be considerable.

  7. Air preheater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_preheater

    The purpose of the air preheater is to recover the heat from the boiler flue gas which increases the thermal efficiency of the boiler by reducing the useful heat lost in the flue gas. As a consequence, the flue gases are also conveyed to the flue gas stack (or chimney ) at a lower temperature, allowing simplified design of the conveyance system ...
