pump out the water‚ which when it becomes less pressurized‚ it turns into steam which turns a turbine which generates electricity. Once the water or a different heating liquid is cooled down enough‚ it is pumped back into the reservoir The temperature of the water that comes out is from 220-600 degrees Fahrenheit. A type of geothermal heating or cooling system that you would normally put in fro your house is dramatically different. The different types are Closed Loop: horizontal ground‚ vertical ground

setting a few degrees it can often save half as much energy and the chances are turning down the temperature won’t even be noticeable to most members of the family. Another way to lower energy costs in the home is with a programmable thermostat for heating the home. Just like the water heater maintains a set temperature even when it is not being used a thermostat does the exact same thing for your entire home. When we are just letting it cool off (or warm up) when there is no one awake can save energy

Geothermal energy has been used for thousands of years in some countries for cooking and heating. It is simply power derived from the Earth’s internal heat.This thermal energy is contained in the rock and fluids beneath Earth’s crust. It can be found from shallow ground to several miles below the surface‚ and even farther down to the extremely hot molten rock called magma. These underground reservoirs of steam and hot water can be tapped to generate electricity or to heat and cool buildings directly

It is to reduce emission of carbon dioxide released

INTRODUCTION Sustainable refurbishment provides great capacity for addressing much of the environmental‚ economic and‚ in particular‚ social sustainability goals through‚ for example‚ involvement of residents in project design and implementation. However‚ there is a great deal of work that must be done to develop the institutional framework for facilitating sustainable refurbishment activity. A sustainable building is one in which the design team have struck a balance between environmental‚

MATHEMATICAL MODELLING OF MICROWAVE HEATING OF FOOD By M . SHIVA KUMAR ( 04AG1008 ) Under the guidance of PROF. SURESH PRASAD ABSTRACT • The use of microwaves in the food industry is attributed to the lower time needed to increase the temperature of foodstuffs compared to the traditional heating methods. •However‚ the heating is not uniform and the products show hot and cold spots. • In order to analyze the behaviour of foods heated by microwave oven‚ a mathematical method was developed

is the Philips Curve? Explain why critics believe the relationship no longer holds. Different macroeconomic policies can be implemented in order to achieve government’s main objectives of full employment and stable economy through low inflation. Philips Curve can be use as a tool to explain the trade-off between these two objectives. This essay will first explain the Philips Curve and its relation to inflation and unemployment. Then‚ the breakdown of Philips Curve will be analysed

Green Technology Green Technology is environmentally friendly‚ developed‚ and used in away so that is does not disturb our environment and conserves natural resources. It has also been known as the “clean technology). This is a promise of a healthier plant. There are many examples of green technology in this world that most people are unaware they do on a daily basis. One of the important aspects is renewable energy that is eco-friendly. We all know that coal‚ oil‚ and gas are fossil fuels and

TOTAL PRODUCT CURVE: A curve that graphically represents the relation between total production by a firm in the short run and the quantity of a variable input added to a fixed input. When constructing this curve‚ it is assumed that total product changes from changes in the quantity of a variable input (like labor)‚ while other inputs (like capital) are fixed. This is one of three key product curves used in the analysis of short-run production. The other two are marginal product curve and average product
