Abstract

The idea of heating the place of human habitation is as old as mankind. As it evolved, a gradual transformation occurred in human lifestyle—from wandering to hunt and collect food into farming and breeding animals.

Notes

  1. 1.

    A volume unit is the parameter to be used because in a given cycle each device pumping a given medium, being a device with specific geometrical dimensions (e.g. the blade height or the piston machine displacement volume), shifts the medium specific volume and not mass.

  2. 2.

    Correct operation of a heating installation consists, among other things, of using appropriately prepared product water, possibly seldom emptying of the installation (to prevent air from getting into it as this increases the corrosion rate) and filling up losses in the water column with product water.
