What is Specific Heat Capacity?

Today I would like to introduce the specific heat capacity to you in a slightly smaller article. The specific heat capacity c indicates the quantity of heat Q that a substance can release or absorb in relation to its mass m when the temperature changes. The temperature change is given as temperature difference \Delta \vartheta in Kelvin K.

What is a heat pump system and how does it work?

Last updated on January 9, 2021 By Martin Schlobach 1 Comment

What is a Heat Pump System?

In this short article I will explain what a heat pump system is, how it works and what are its advantages and disadvantages. The most important feature of a heat pump system is the use of a pump to transport water in the heating system. An alternative heating system is gravity heating.

Heat Pump System

In a heat pump system, the heating water is forced to circulate in a heating circuit with the help of a circulation pump. The circulation pump can be installed in the flow pipe (FP) or in the return pipe (RP). However, it has become generally accepted to install the pump in the flow pipe. If you can’t imagine a circulating pump, you will find a modern circulation pump in Fig. 1.

What is a Direct Vent System?

Last updated on January 9, 2021 By Martin Schlobach Leave a Comment

What is a Direct Vent System?

In this article I’ll explain to you what a Direct Vent System is. A Direct Vent System is a chimney or an exhaust pipe with two parallel flow channels (double-pipe flue). The hot exhaust gas of the fireplace is discharged over the inner channel and fresh air supplies the heater simultaneously with combustion air over the outside channel.
