When it comes to the preparation, sportsmanship, and game planning of a professional sports team, the locker room is the epicenter of these activities. Athletes congregate here before and after competitions to discuss their strengths and weaknesses and prepare their minds for the matches ahead.... To allow athletes to freshen up and prepare before games and after, a locker room must be furnished with clean, well-maintained hygienic amenities. Every professional sports locker room must have sufficient showers and changing facilities.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Air Conditioning and Heating
DEF

That quantity or condition of a controlled medium which is measured and controlled. For example, temperature, pressure, flow rate, volume, level, or concentration.

CONT

The room thermostat is placed so that it measures temperature(controlled variable) in the room air(controlled medium), and operates a valve which regulates the flow(manipulated variable) of the steam(control agent) through the heating coil. Heat from the coil is thus furnished to the room air.

DEF

The medium which is manipulated by the control system to cause a change in the control medium.

CONT

... suppose a heating coil through which steam is flowing is used to heat a room. The room thermostat is placed so that it measures temperature(controlled variable) in the room air(controlled medium), and operates a valve which regulates the flow(manipulated variable) of the steam(control agent) through the heating coil. Heat from the coil is thus furnished to the room air.

Record 7 1999-10-23

English

Subject field(s)
  • Heating
DEF

A heating system in which the heating units give up their heat to the room by condensing the steam furnished to them by a boiler or other source.

CONT

Like hot water, a steam heating system uses radiators in the various rooms. Water is converted to steam in the boiler, and steam is then carried up to the radiators. Before circulators were developed for hot-water systems, steam could be carried much farther and through smaller pipes than were required for hot-water heating. Therefore, steam was the only way to get heat into distant radiators in large buildings.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Chauffage
CONT

Systèmes à vapeur. (...) Ce sont les différences de pression qui permettent la circulation de la vapeur dans les tuyaux. La chaudière change l'eau en vapeur, ce qui en augmente le volume. (...) La chaleur étant communiquée aux tuyaux et aux éléments de transfert de chaleur, la vapeur se condense en eau. Il en résulte une diminution de volume. Cette diminution de volume entraîne une diminution de pression dans le système et une augmentation du taux de vapeur en circulation.
