  2. Water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_heating

    Water typically enters residences in the US at about 10 °C (50 °F), depending on latitude and season. Hot water temperatures of 50 °C (122 °F) are usual for dish-washing, laundry and showering, which requires that the heater raise the water temperature about 40 °C (72 °F) if the hot water is mixed with cold water at the point of use.

  3. Superheated water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superheated_water

    Superheated water. Pressure cookers produce superheated water, which cooks the food more rapidly than boiling water. Superheated water is liquid water under pressure at temperatures between the usual boiling point, 100 °C (212 °F) and the critical temperature, 374 °C (705 °F). It is also known as "subcritical water" or "pressurized hot water".

  4. Room temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Room_temperature

    Retrieved 4 April 2018. 1.2.3.3 Definition of Room Temperature: According to the United States Pharmacopeia National Forumlary [ sic] (USP-NF), the definition of room temperature is between 15 and 30 °C in the United States. However, in the EU, the room temperature is defined as being 15 to 25 °C, while in Japan, it is defined being 1 to 30 °C.

  5. Thermostatic mixing valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostatic_mixing_valve

    A thermostatic mixing valve (TMV) is a valve that blends hot water with cold water to ensure constant, safe shower and bath outlet temperatures to prevent scalding . The storage of water at high temperature removes one possible breeding ground for Legionella; the use of a thermostat, rather than a static mixing valve, provides increased safety ...

  6. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    Water is the chemical substance with chemical formula H. 2O; one molecule of water has two hydrogen atoms covalently bonded to a single oxygen atom. [25] Water is a tasteless, odorless liquid at ambient temperature and pressure. Liquid water has weak absorption bands at wavelengths of around 750 nm which cause it to appear to have a blue color. [3]

  7. Thermostat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermostat

    A common application is to permit operation of an electric water heater at a temperature hot enough to kill Legionella bacteria (above 60 °C, 140 °F), while the output of the valve produces water that is cool enough to not immediately scald (49 °C, 120 °F).

  8. Tankless water heating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankless_water_heating

    Tankless water heating. The inside of a hydraulically operated two-stage tankless heater, heated by single-phase electric power. The copper tank contains heating elements with 7.2 kW maximum power. Tankless water heaters — also called instantaneous, continuous flow, inline, flash, on-demand, or instant-on water heaters — are water heaters ...

  9. Pressure cooking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure_cooking

    The approximate vapor pressure of water as a function of temperature, or when viewed sideways, the boiling point of water as a function of pressure. At standard pressure the boiling point of water is 100 °C (212 °F). With any food containing or cooked with water, once the temperature reaches the boiling point, any excess heat causes some of ...
