methods for reducing water wastage
This document discusses several methods for reducing water wastage, including dual flush toilets that offer a partial or full flush option, spray taps that reduce the flow of water from taps, flow limiting valves that restrict the amount of water flowing through pipes, water collection systems that reuse water for tasks like flushing toilets or watering gardens, rainwater harvesting systems that collect and store rainwater from roofs for reuse, and grey water recycling systems that collect and reuse water from bathing, showers, and washing machines.
Wind energy
Wind energy is a renewable resource that is harnessed using wind turbines to convert the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energy. There are two main types of wind turbines - horizontal axis and vertical axis styles - which can be stand alone or grid connected installations. When multiple wind turbines are grouped together it is called a wind farm, which are commonly found offshore or in rural areas to take advantage of higher wind speeds. Domestic wind turbines typically range between 2.5-15kw and require proper siting with consideration for wind speeds, turbulence, and proximity to the point of use.
Water treatment and supply
Water treatment involves several processes to remove impurities from water sources before public supply. These include screening, coagulation, sedimentation, filtration, aeration, and disinfection using methods like chlorination. Water can also be stored using rainwater harvesting systems that collect rainwater or greywater reuse systems that treat wastewater from sinks and washing machines for non-potable uses like toilet flushing. Factors like available water collection, required storage amounts, and costs must be considered for rainwater harvesting systems. Greywater systems vary in treatment complexity and usually include a tank, pump, and distribution system.
Solar thermal
There are two main types of solar thermal collectors: flat plate collectors and evacuated tube collectors. Flat plate collectors come in glazed or unglazed varieties, while evacuated tube collectors are more efficient but require less roof space. Solar collectors work by collecting solar energy from the sun and transferring it as heat to a fluid inside the collector. The main disadvantage of a large solar thermal storage cylinder is the extra weight it adds to the roof structure. A home's suitability depends on factors like roof orientation, size and loading, shading, and whether there is space for a storage cylinder.
Part l presentation
Central Heating Systems and the UK Building Regulations
The document discusses key parts of the UK Building Regulations related to central heating systems, including:
1) Part L which covers the seasonal efficiency of domestic boilers and the SEDBUK (Seasonal Efficiency of Domestic Boilers in the UK) rating system which provides a basis for comparing boiler efficiency.
2) The SAP (Standard Assessment Procedure) which is important for heating design and sets targets for new homes' CO2 emissions.
3) How the SEDBUK rating system calculates boiler efficiency based on standard lab tests and factors like boiler type, fuel used, and typical UK climate and usage patterns.
Heat pump systems
Heat pumps absorb heat from the ground and transfer it to buildings for space heating and pre-heating water. A ground source heat pump system has three main elements - a ground loop buried underground, the heat pump unit, and a heat distribution system inside the building. There are three common types of ground loops - horizontal loops laid underground, vertical loops using deep boreholes, and slinky loops buried in trenches. The best applications for heat pumps are properties with low heating demands, which can use radiators, underfloor heating, or air ducts. Ground source heat pumps have few moving parts and can last over 40 years with proper maintenance.
Jan2016 exam techniques
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.
Resistance spot welding
The document discusses resistance spot welding, which involves cleaning surfaces, applying a weld-through primer, and ensuring overlapping surfaces. It describes squeeze time as the time for the electrode to contact the work piece, weld time as when current passes and welding occurs, and hold time for the metal to cool. A peel test is used to check weld strength by pulling layers apart and verifying a hole is left in one layer. The document warns that spot welds placed too closely together can experience a shunt effect where electricity takes the path of least resistance between welds, weakening them.
The theory of plastics
Plastics are synthetic organic materials that can be molded under heat and pressure into a shape that is retained after cooling. There are two main types of plastics used in automotive engineering - thermoplastics, which soften when heated, and thermosets, which do not melt once solidified. Plastics are commonly used in automotive engineering to save weight and energy, increase safety and comfort, and reduce noise and maintenance needs compared to other materials. Painting plastic automotive parts helps bond and protect the surface from degradation, improves appearance through enhanced gloss and color, and allows for styling effects. It also increases durability by providing better weathering, scratch, chip, and chemical resistance.

Procedures for safely isolating supplies
This document outlines procedures for safely isolating electrical supplies before work. It discusses isolating various appliances like pumps, showers, programmers, thermostats, immersion heaters, boilers, and cookers by switching off the circuit breaker or removing the fuse, locking it off, and applying a label. It provides steps for confirming isolation using a voltage indicator, including testing the indicator first and last, identifying the circuit, switching it off and locking it, then retesting the appliance to confirm it is dead. Locations for safe isolation are identified as the consumer unit, fused spur, or switch fused spur.
6035 l2u202 ppt_outcome1
Domestic electrics are used in many plumbing situations like pumps, showers, programmers, thermostats, immersion heaters, and boilers. As plumbers, we are not allowed to interfere with lighting circuits or ring mains, and can only attach appliances to switched fused spurs. Proper earthing is important for safety, and any electrical faults should be reported to the homeowner.
Boilers used in domestic central heating systems
The document discusses different types of boilers used in domestic central heating systems. There are four main fuel sources: solid fuel, gas, oil, and renewable energy. Gas boilers are the most popular and can be categorized as traditional non-condensing boilers, cast-iron heat exchangers, low-water-content heat exchangers, combination boilers, condensing boilers, condensing system boilers, and condensing combination boilers. Condensing boilers increase efficiency by allowing flue gases to cool and condense latent heat. Boilers require either an open flue or room-sealed balanced flue to safely vent combustion products outside.
Types of heat emitters used in underfloor heating systems
The document discusses different types of heat emitters used in central heating systems, including panel radiators, column radiators, towel rails, fan convectors, kick-space heaters, skirting convectors, and underfloor heating. It provides details on the construction and installation of each type. Underfloor heating is described as becoming more popular, with pipes installed at specific centers below flooring and connected to a central manifold for temperature control in each room. The document also covers commissioning, testing, and fault finding procedures for central heating systems.
Sealed system components
Sealed central heating systems require components to accommodate for water expansion as the water is heated. These components include an external expansion vessel, pressure relief valve, filling loop, and pressure gauge. The expansion vessel replaces the feed and expansion cistern of vented systems. It comprises a steel cylinder divided by a rubber diaphragm that allows water to compress the air in the vessel as it expands with heat. System boilers also accommodate expansion internally without additional components. Proper sizing of the expansion vessel is necessary using formulas considering system volume, fill pressure and temperature, operating pressure and temperature, and resulting expansion factor.
